Ice cream shops in Pardubice Region

This is soft-serve country — nearly every shop in the region makes it, but from fresh fruit and cream rather than a powdered mix. You will find them in Holice, below Kunětická hora, by the Pardubice swimming pool, in Polička and in Choceň.

Most open for the summer only, and several carry a regional product label. Fruit comes from nearby farms, and the makers travel to the gelato festivals to compete.
