2027 hasn’t yet begun but is already shaping up to be a particularly sweet year for the Annapolis dining scene. Pitango Gelato is on deck to help ensure the coming year is especially delicious for locals; the concept is bringing its frozen treats to the neighborhood at a new franchised location, reports the Baltimore Business Journal.
Franchisees Sam and Semy Lee will be opening the new Pitango at 124 Dock Street, in the space that housed Bitty & Beau’s Cafe until its closure this September. The shop will be the chain’s 10th storefront, joining an array of sites across the DMV.
Future Annapolis Pitango customers can rest assured that they are in good hands with the Lees. Sam and Semy were the brand’s first franchisees and recognize that while the delicious bites draw customers in, the atmosphere keeps them coming back. Sam states: “Our experience in Alexandria has shown us how much people value a neighborhood place where they can enjoy exceptional gelato and spend time together.”
The Annapolis Pitango does not yet have a precise opening date available, however the shop is projected to be customer-ready by next spring.
Annapolis is certain to embrace Pitango; the concept serves lovingly made, superior products. The brand uses organic milk gathered from grass-fed cows to craft its delicious treats. The website adds: “We churn every batch of gelato and sorbet on location in each of our shops to ensure peak freshness. All of our products are free from artificial colors, flavors, and preservatives. We think you’ll taste the difference.”
