About

On Zanzibar, arc ice cream serves scoops from 1985 Hurumzi St, Zanzibar, Tanzania, a counter set within the old quarter of Stone Town. The shop has built a following in Stone Town, where its location places it among the historic streets of the old quarter.

First-time visitors should expect a small-scale ice cream counter rather than a large parlour, with the focus on cold treats suited to the island's tropical climate. The shop's reputation is reflected in a 5 out of 5 rating across 168 reviews, a score that stands out among Zanzibar's food outlets. Nearby places such as Nungwi, Kendwa, Paje, Jambiani, Bwejuu, Kiwayu and Matemwe show the wider spread of visitor areas across the island, though the shop itself sits in Stone Town.

No opening hours or photographs are part of the listing, so the address remains the primary reference for finding the shop.

Zanzibar and Pemba have a tropical climate, hot and humid all year with sea breezes along the coast, making cold food a natural fit. Dishes such as pilau, biryani, urojo soup and octopus stew are common on both islands.
