Amoroso Gelateria New Farm

Amoroso Gelateria New Farm is a dessert-focused café in Brisbane’s New Farm, serving gelato, sundaes, croffles, Basque cheesecake and beverages including coffee. The shop says its gelato is made daily, with milk and cream pasteurised in-house, natural flavours used and reduced sugar intended to let the main flavours come through. The range includes dairy-free sorbets such as lemon, mango, passionfruit, pineapple, forest fruits and strawberry, alongside dairy gelato flavours including Dutch chocolate, vanilla bean, pistachio, matcha, hojicha, tiramisu and salted caramel.

The croffle is one of Amoroso’s more distinctive offerings: croissants imported from France are baked daily, then paired with fillings and toppings. Options listed online include plain, cream, blueberry, mango, strawberry, Nutella, Biscoff, apple cinnamon and Oreo, with the choice to add one, two or three scoops of gelato. For something more traditionally cake-based, the Basque cheesecake is described as soft and creamy, with a rich cream-cheese flavour. The menu also includes gelato sundaes and a beverage range, making it suitable for a quick coffee and sweet treat as well as a more indulgent dessert stop.

The New Farm shop is at Shop 4/75 Welsby Street. According to the website, it is closed on Mondays, opens from 1pm Tuesday to Thursday, from 1pm on Friday, and from midday on Saturday and Sunday, with closing times varying by day. The site’s customer comments describe it as a small, cute ice-cream shop with welcoming staff, a good choice of flavours and opportunities to try flavours before ordering. That makes it a practical option for solo visits, casual catch-ups and families choosing between different desserts, although the available seating and broader facilities are not detailed online.

Amoroso says the business grew from a personal love of gelato and family, and now focuses on developing its own creations, particularly croffles and Basque cheesecake, alongside its gelato. For New Farm locals and visitors after a made-fresh dessert, it offers plenty of choice without being limited to scoops alone.
