Stopped by Cremeria Monteforte right next to the Pantheon, you really can't beat the location. Super easy to order, and the staff was friendly and patient while I decided on my flavors. They let you pick three different flavors in the larger size, which is awesome. I went with pistachio, cookies and cream, and coffee all three were phenomenal. They also give you a little wafer on top, which is a nice touch. Overall, just a perfect Italian gelato stop great flavors, great vibe, and zero complaints. read more

Shop was small, but had all the good stuff. Cannolis were prefilled which is usually a sign they aren't as fresh, but it was still pretty good. FWIW my visit was from fall 2022 read more

My 1st time that I went to Italy, we were on a trafalgar tour I had an out of body experience when I 1st had Gelato, the bus was full of old grumpy folks n they got irritated I had gelato daily in the bus, I told them that the reason I was skinny was I actually hated icecream it was too creamy n too sweet for me, they thought I ate a gallon a day n stayed slim, fast forward I could never have good gelato, it was so so only until today at Cremeria Monteforte. It was raining n we ran into this gelato place, why not have some, omg I couldn't believe it, everything was 100% organic, no gmo frankenfood, no fructose, gelatin things that kill you w cancer n it was made right there! I was also shocked it cost 3.5 euros, in USA it was $7 n i betcha under Joetato skyrocketing inflation regime it's now $8 I haven't had gelato for a long time till now. The mango tasted like mango I had off the tree in Phuket, the strawberries were so flavorful unlike the giant tasteless coz they're nuked to death in USA, the coffee was premium coffee. I'm going back there tomorrow I'll have a large cup only 5 euros, I don't know how they do it, there's absolutely zero inflation in Rome n I'm in the hottest place here, restaurants are open till 2 am, gelato till midnight! So don't believe any politician telling you inflation is inevitable, they did it to us. Today I made a mistake to try a new place, Fuocco de Neve, they claimed to be organic n artisan gelato but it cost a little more n tasted just 10% better than in USA, in other words pretty much useless, I trashed it as I just ate a fiesta n wasn't hungry. Both places were owned by the Chinese n the gelatos were made by the Chinese! Lol I never saw any Chinese in Rome before now they owned all the shops! All over Italy too. This is our last fling to Europe, I wish I went on my own before, I speak enough languages to do it but we were lazy n just want to be led like cattles lol nothing to do. This deserves 6 stars! I'm going to eat a gallon tomorrow!!! Whoohoohoo. 8/19 I came back n met a nice Italian man, it's not fair the location is away from the main drag even though it was just 15 steps fr it, it didn't have the foot traffic it deserves. read more

Best Gelato in Roma. Anyone who doesn't like this place doesn't know Gelato. Very reasonably priced too.

Recommended by our tour guide as one of the best gelateria in Rome. The service wasn't amazing - it was polite and functional - but the gelato was fantastic, very flavorful, rich, and totally worth savoring on the bench outside next to the Pantheon. It was a perfect stop on a hot day full of touring. read more

Hazelnut was great. Chocolate with hazelnut was not as creamy and more like a rocky road / ice cream consistency. Yes, we were craving hazelnut. read more

3.5 Stars Our local guide recommended this place to us after we came out of the Pantheon. We already had gelato earlier that day too! While in Italy, we had gelato everyday, twice a day (Milan, Venice, Florence, Rome, Sorrento)! So by the end of the trip, my husband and I felt like we were experts after so many gelato tastings! Anyway, this place was just okay. There wasn't that explosion of flavor we had expected after our guide had talked so highly of this place. It was actually a little bland. The consistency wasn't as dense as I like it either. Then again, it was better than anything I've had in California, but my review is in Italian standards. If you are by the Trevi Fountain, to the left of it (on the corner) is a place that has awesome gelato! I liked that place a lot better. It's next to a pizza place. (Although the pizza place sells gelato too...) But either way, you can't beat your surroundings! When in Rome.... :) read more

We stumbled onto Cremeria Monteforte after doing some shopping around the Pantheon area (we ended up buying some beautiful Italian leather handbags and a bunch of coffee products). We were looking for a gelato break before heading back to our hotel to drop off our goods and stumbled onto this spot. The gelato here is about the same price as other spots - usually 2-3€ for a small or medium size. I had the mango sorbet with the vanilla cherry gelato, which was absolutely delightful. I think it might be one of the best gelatos that I've ever had! The vanilla cherry was sweet and tart at the same time, with small cherries dispersed in the vanilla gelato. Service was on point and the end result is really pretty and perfect for an instragram shot! If you're in the Pantheon area, definitely check them out for a gelato break. read more

Second favorite Gelato place in Rome (after Gelateria La Romana). This was where my partner had his first gelato. It wasn't the cheapest gelato we had, but definitely less expensive than most that we encountered in Rome. We went twice. My partner had his usual coffee and chocolate gelato in a cup both times. I tried the noccio, nutella, chocolate, pistacchio etc. Delicious and we would definitely go back a 3rd time! Maybe 6.... read more

Two days into our Rome holiday, I realised we hadn't had any gelato. Walking past the Pantheon and spotting Cremeria Monteforte was almost like a lightbulb moment! Service was friendly enough and super speedy; being situated in such a popular tourist destination, I'm sure they're used to their queues and having to feed many ice cream hungry visitors! You order and are served at the large ice cream counter then pay the gentleman at the till near the exit. Split into sorbets and gelato, the flavour options can be a tad overwhelming. However, the combination of not having had any gelato yet and always being in a slightly indulgent mood, I was quickly attracted by the chocolate flavours. The dark chocolate was a spectacularly dark shade (if a bit fake) but it was the Nutella and praline flavours that ended up in my cup. The other half had the mint chocolate chip, his favourite, and we spent a happy time sat at the fountain opposite the Pantheon with our scoops. Well priced considering how much ice cream can be marked up, they offer a range of cones and sizes, plus hot chocolate during the colder months. read more

This gelato was so amazing that I came back here at least 3 times during my 3 day stay in Rome. The staff were all so friendly and the ice cream was affordable. My favorite flavors are: cantaloupe, lime, and mango! read more

One of the best ways to admire Rome and people-watch is with a gelato cup or cone in your hand, and Cremeria Monteforte is the answer if you are near the Pantheon and its Piazza della Rotonda! Sure it's next to a popular tourist attraction, but that doesn't stop Monteforte from serving stellar gelato! With a decent-sized selection of classic flavors, you can't really go wrong. Plus, each portion comes with huge scope at the standard Roman price of 2.5 EUR for up to two different flavors, so if you are craving for gelato and want to rest near the Pantheon, grab an order of gelato from Monteforte and sit down at the foot of the fountain to enjoy the Pantheon scene! --- tl;dr version: 1) Best place to get a gelato near the Pantheon 2) Huge scoops for standard price read more

Cremeria Monteforte - Caramel and pistachio gelato! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Rome, RM

This place came highly recommend by my aunt and uncle. They got to know the owner while they were visiting Rome a few years ago and gave me the picture to bring when I went on my trip to Rome! Each time we stopped by though, it was closed (I think for the season). On our last night in Rome, they opened up again (it's like it was meant to be!) The owner was SO friendly and remembered my aunt/uncle when I showed him the picture. They have so many delicious flavors of gelato and it's right near the Pantheon so there's no excuse not to try it! read more

The best gelato we have had while in Rome. I appreciate the prices being displayed and the flavors being clearly marked. It is just to the left of the Pantheon. read more

First gelato in Rome and it is excellent. Lots of flavors. Had Mango and Banana. Wife had dark chocolate, chocolate/hazelnut and coffee

Make a left out the Pantheon and some of the best dessert ever! 1 of my professors took us there and people were going back for 2nds. Gelato/ icecream without the milk, YES... nobody has to "go for a walk" lol. This stuff makes you stop in your tracks, why all 40 of us sat on the wall next to the Pantheon. They are at a prime location, too! I think I can live in Rome just for treats like this, and 1€ cappuccino. If you're in ROMA check this place out and the dome of the Pantheon both AWESOME!!! read more

The gelato here is one of the best we had, and we tried so many different places. Kept coming back to this place. Loved it.

Gelato done right and a delicious offering of creamy sorbets too! The small Gelato is cheap, 2.50, while the small creamy sorbet (I can't remember what they are specifically called) is a bit more expensive at 4.00. That was a special treat, though, and something we had not tried before! read more

Samples! Smiles! Selfie friendly! Two scoops of amazing chocolate with a chocolate dipped sugar cone for less than 5 euros...awesome. God bless Italy. read more

I think all you need to know is that this place serves frulatti/granita/fruit italian ice or whatever the proper name for this refreshing dessert, and it comes at a very affordable price. My husband and I searched all over Rome for a few days, and we were so thankful that we had finally found this place. read more

Awesome! If you get the large cone, be ready to share. It's huge! Great variety of flavors with quick service, just purchase what size you'd like and then pass the ticket (receipt) to the server. Then fall in love. We had quite a few cones around the city, this one was one of the best. read more

Amazing. I had the mango and strawberry my wife had the mousse and tiramisu. The gelato is very flavorful and smooth. Worthy of its excellent reviews. Well lit clean storefront. read more

Good gelato! It tastes authentic and packs quite a bit of flavor. I really enjoyed the chocolate mousse flavor and liked the coffee one. The coffee was good but for me I felt it was just too strong. Prices were extremely fair as well as the portions. read more

In a city full of gelato, this is a mediocre example. The chocolate tasted artificially flavored. Go elsewhere.

A good cremeria, specialized in creams and soft ice creams, which are very good and tasty. The zabaione semifreddo is simply awesome!

The best gelato we had in Rome, including from Giolotto, which is so popular. This place has fewer flavors, but that's good because they are made FRESH by the modest owner every day....oh!!! Delicious, creamy, full of flavor...the best!!! This is what people mean when they talk about gelato in Italy...heaven! Go there!! Enjoy!! read more

AMAZING! Fresh, artisanal gelato made daily with market-fresh ingredients. My family and I went twice in a single day. Everything was excellent but the pistachio is the best. read more

OK we have visited Rome for three summers and this is one of the best Gelaterias in Roma - To the right of the Pantheon as you face it. We visited this store daily. The fig is fantastic. Mango and chocolate mouse are also up there. The portions for the small (piccolo) are still a good size. The store is small but the service is fast. read more
