Hamilton

Aglamesis Brothers in Hamilton is the first expansion for this century-old Cincinnati institution outside of its original neighborhoods. Located in the heart of the historic Main Street district, it brings the brand's legendary premium ice cream and gourmet chocolates to a new audience in a beautifully restored space.

Historic Atmosphere: The shop is housed in a renovated building that mirrors the "ice cream parlor" aesthetic of the original Oakley location, featuring classic marble counters, wire-back chairs, and a refined, nostalgic feel.

Signature Ice Cream: The menu features their famous high-butterfat, French-pot style ice cream. Popular flavors include the rich Madagascar Vanilla, Fresh Strawberry, and their signature Mocha Chip.

Gourmet Chocolates: A significant portion of the shop is dedicated to their handmade candies. You can find their renowned Opera Creams, truffles, and seasonal chocolates available for individual selection or in pre-packaged gift boxes.

Main Street Anchor: Its location makes it a perfect stop after visiting other local businesses in Hamilton, contributing to the revitalized, walkable energy of the downtown area.
