Double the Delight with Nova Artisan Gelato That Brings Heavenly Scoops to Bandra

Some places don't shout for attention; they whisper, draw you in with a swirl, and leave you thinking about them long after you've walked away. Nova Artisan Gelato's brand new Bandra outpost is exactly that kind of place.

A Second Scoop of Serenity
After winning hearts at Kemps Corner, Nova has quietly parked its second gelato bar on Waterfield Road, a sleepy Bandra lane better known for homegrown boutiques and strolls. And yet, here it is, a tiny 200 sq. ft. sanctuary wrapped in soft coral and brushed steel, with curves so creamy you'll feel like you've stepped inside a scoop of gelato itself.

It's not just a store. It's the mood, a moment. A mid-afternoon "I deserve this" kind of pause.

Flavours That Tell Tales
And the flavours? Oh, they don't just taste good. They tell stories.

We kicked things off with the Vanilla Bean classic, yes, classic, but never boring. It's speckled with real vanilla and melts like a nostalgic memory. Taking a spoonful of the Vanilla Bean classic, I was instantly transported to my childhood; a flood of memories from a dessert I frequently savored. Next, the Matcha arrived, a surprising contender that dissolved our usual skepticism into quiet appreciation. It was smooth, subtly grassy, and sweet in all the right ways.

But the real gems are the Sugar-Free Pistachio and Dark Chocolate Sea Salt. The pistachio is nutty and luxe, while the dark chocolate is intense, broody, and balanced out by that whisper of sea salt. Think a brooding poetry student meets a clean-eating Instagrammer, and they're both delicious.

We wandered deeper into the menu and found more tiny joys:

• Brownie Stracciatella: Gooey meets crunchy.
• Lotus Biscoff: All golden spice and cookie dreams.
• Toasted Croissant: A Bandra exclusive that tastes like Sunday mornings in Paris.
  

Craving something cool without the dairy? The Raspberry Sorbet is light, zingy, and a fruity hug in frozen form.

Beyond the Scoop
But wait, it doesn't stop at gelato. Nova's also pouring Nandan coffee, serving up bonbon affogatos, cheeky little frozen bites, and even Pastel savouries if you like to earn your dessert (or pretend to).

Final Scoop
Nova in Bandra isn't just about dessert. It's about pausing, smiling, and surrendering to a tiny, joyful ritual in the middle of a loud Mumbai day. Come for the gelato, stay for the vibe, and don't be surprised if it becomes your new favourite detour.
