For anyone craving a cool escape, Italian gelato shops around Connecticut offer an especially delicious answer to sweltering summer afternoons. Oggi Gelato, FairfieldFresh gelato does not spend much time waiting around here. The Fairfield shop opened in June 2025 as the brand’s second U.S. location, bringing its Italian gelato tradition to 1499 Post Road. Before introducing gelato to the menu, the team trained with an Italian gelato artisan to master traditional methods, and that dedication shows in the final product. The menu keeps things playful.
