Lamezia Terme

An institution since 1901, Gelateria Belvedere is the oldest ice cream parlour in Pizzo Calabro. Come here to try the authentic Tartufo of Pizzo, from the traditional black one to more innovative recipes. Nestled in a prime spot within the main piazza, its patio offers a delightful vantage point for indulging in both culinary pleasures and the vibrant spectacle of people passing by.

Venture a little beyond the town's borders and discover Gelateria Callipo, an ice cream shop offering an expansive assortment of gelato, each creation meticulously crafted with ingredients sourced from carefully chosen local farms, like Sicilian lemons and Calabrese Dotted figs. Indulge in their renowned Tartufos, available in a spectrum of flavours, among them the celebrated "Tartufo Limoncello".

Just entering Chocolat will water your mouth. You'll find ice cream and truffles in all kinds of chocolate flavours, so go ahead and try as many as you can. A bar, a pastry shop, an ice cream parlour, and a Chocoteca (a paradise for chocolate lovers) all in one place.

For three generations, Bar Gelateria Ercole has been a beacon of tradition nestled in the heart of Pizzo Calabro's historic centre. Revel in the unrivalled allure of their Tartufo di Pizzo and artisanal ice creams, a legacy that has arguably birthed the finest Tartufo in town. Beyond the flavours, their friendly service invites you to bask in the simple pleasure of watching the world go by as you savour their exquisite creations.

For four generations, Gelateria Cesare has epitomised the art of crafting genuine artisanal ice cream. Along the sun-kissed seaside promenade in Reggio di Calabria, their legacy continues, offering a wide array of ice cream flavours. The "brioche con gelato" stands out — an inviting ensemble of sweet bread cut in half with ice cream, customisable with a choice of toppings.

Located right by the waterfront in Reggio di Calabria, Gelateria Matteotti is a patisserie, ice cream parlour, pizzeria, and wine bar all in one. Very popular among tourists and locals alike. In the evenings, people gather here under the parasols on the patio to enjoy delicious aperitifs and ice creams before dinner.
