After 16 years of only being able to get their favourite ice cream at a single location, Aucklanders are in for a treat.

“We are so excited” says Giapo Grazioli, owner of Giapo. “Annarosa and I love the Park Hyatt Auckland and all their food offerings, so we were delighted when they asked us to collaborate with them at their beautiful hotel.” The couple started their operation in a small space on Queen Street in 2008 but moved to Gore Street in 2017, where they now serve their wild creations (ice cream- but not as you know it – donuts, cookies and weird and wonderful changing dessert innovations). They also hold tasting experiences for delighted customers and groups in their upstairs space. The brand shot to further fame in 2023 when they opened a joint venture with international superstar, Cher, in LA after she fell in love with their gelato on a trip to New Zealand.
Park Hyatt Auckland’s vibrant culinary spaces are purposefully designed to offer hotel guests and customers a place to socialise, dine and unwind, on the waterfront and Giapo x The Pantry Ice Cream Hut will further elevate this already popular food and beverage experience.
Brett Sweetman from Park Hyatt Auckland says, “Giapo’s passion for creating exceptional ice cream aligns perfectly with our commitment to providing authentic and genuine hospitality. It’s been a challenging year for Wynyard Quarter, especially with the closure of the bridge so this collaboration is our way of contributing to the revitalisation of the area and generating foot traffic as the bridge reopens in mid-December.”
Giapo Ice Cream Hut at The Pantry will officially open on 7 December in time for the Karanga Plaza Christmas Market and will run every Wednesday to Sunday throughout summer.
