Fire & Ice Coffee and Ice Cream Shop

The sister business of Hotel De Ville, this shop serves a variety of high-quality coffee drinks and hand-dipped ice cream from The Chocolate Shoppe in Madison. The owners are particularly proud of their espresso machine, a restored antique Belle poque II made of copper and brass. Along with the small parlor inside, there's a European garden outside, with stone walls, statuary and fountains. Sipping a cappuccino here is like a dreamy little escape to Italy.
