Small-batch, hand-churned gelato and artisan café beverages crafted daily on Market Street — because the best things take time, patience, and a stubborn refusal to cut corners.
La Lupita started with a simple conviction: that ice cream, done right, is worth the extra effort. We source local dairy, grind our own chocolate, and churn every batch by hand in small quantities. No industrial freezers. No shortcuts. Just the kind of attention most places reserve for dinner.
Our café on Market Street in Oxford is a place where the process is part of the experience. You'll see us working — measuring, heating, churning, cooling — and you'll taste the difference that visible care makes. We partner with nearby farms for our milk and cream, and our flavor rotations reflect what's seasonal and what's interesting that week.
Every batch is made fresh each morning. We never sell yesterday's ice cream.
Our flavors change with the seasons, reflecting what's fresh and local.
Located on Market Street, we're proud to be part of Oxford's fabric.
We work with local dairy farms and specialty ingredient suppliers. Every component is chosen for what it brings to the final batch — not for cost or convenience.
Every flavor is mixed, pasteurized, and churned in small batches throughout the day. This isn't batch-and-store — it's continuous, hands-on work.
From our display case to your spoon, the ice cream has been cared for at every step. That's the La Lupita standard — and the reason people come back.
La Lupita changed the way our town thinks about ice cream. It's not a treat anymore — it's a destination. The attention to detail in every batch is something you can taste from the first spoonful.
