Absolutely wonderful granita and brioche here, probably my favourite during my entire recent Sicily trip! Despite speaking incredibly limited Italian the staff were very helpful and patient with me while I took an age deciding what to have. The Gelateria isn’t far from the train station, has plenty of places to sit, a clean toilet and has excellent opening hours, it is completely worth a stop to cool down!

The ice cream is very tasty. They have a large variety of different flavors. We went on December and it's open and functioning as if it was mid August. The service is very attentive and they have no problem of explaining the different flavours and options. There is also a cake section that looked very tasty (we didn't try it). I will come back!

I recommend this place for their pistachio and bacio flavours. They are good but not the best I tasted in Palermo. Good service and creamy gelato.

Epic gelato. Panna is mandatory for the full experience. I ordered with the brioche to try it, but the cone is objectively better (although you must try the brioche at least once if you're in Sicily). The quality of gelato is insane. 2.50 EUR for the masterpiece in the picture. Not the best gelato I have ever had, but definitely very high in the ranking.

Went in for ice cream and then some pastries - never disappointed. They open early and stay open later than most places. Prices are great too.
