All the shops here are small, but this place appears to have the most consistent lines on Main Street. We looked around and most patrons were getting the amarena cherry with good chunks of powerful cherries. The taste was second to none and had to be inhaled due to the warm weather. For an intense, flavor-packed scoop of cool gelato stop at Gelateria Vernazza for the best gelato in town.

Gelateria Centrale is without a doubt the greatest gelato I've ever had. Granted I haven't had the…read moreopportunity to try too many gelaterias, but I can't imagine it getting any better than this! I stayed in Riomaggiore for the weekend (2 nights) and managed to stop by 4 times... and even though that might sound like a gross amount of times I enjoyed every single bite each time and definitely could've stayed for more! One of my favorite flavors ever is pistachio when it's made correctly so I was dying to try it out! The first sample I had made me fall in love. The gelato tasted exactly like perfectly roasted pistachios in a creamy form. It tasted so real and fresh and at that moment I knew how much I loved Italy. Here's a short list of all of the flavors I tried (again, I'm not ashamed!) Pistachio - 100/10 Chocolate - 9/10 Chocolate with Hazelnut - 7/10 Nutella - 8.5/10 Banana - 8/10 Watermelon - 10/10 Peach - 10/10 Even if you aren't staying in Riomaggiore, you should definitely make the trip to try this place! At 2 euros for 2 scoops and 2.50 for 3 scoops, it's a deal you can't refuse!

I got a small cup with pistachio and dark chocolate, as I was in the mood for something nutty and rich. The pistachio was very good--not the most memorable, but definitely nutty and flavorful. They're definitely doing it justice here. The dark chocolate was deep and rich, but maybe a bit too sweet for my taste. My husband got a hazelnut milkshake, which was thinner than milkshakes in the US that use ice cream, but he loved the strong flavors and still enjoyed it. It's probably the only time he's ever been satisfied with a thin milkshake. The people working inside were nice, and there were even a couple chairs right outside where we sat and enjoyed our afternoon treat. A very good option if you're looking for gelato in the city.

Again, the narrow city views funneling you to the ocean are just beautiful. The storefront and line of smiling patrons leaving 5 Terre Gelateria guide us to this shop. The go-to lately (today) is the amarena cherry and stracciatella double dip gelato. The strong cherry flavor coupled with the smooth cream and shaved chocolate are a winner. I have to eat quickly as the heat is melting it rapidly. If you are in Manarola and needing a delicious treat, stop at 5 Terre Gelateria, you can't go wrong.

Sampled the ricotta and fig which I feel like would be a good flavor to get if you want something different. I thought it was funny when the worker was also eating a cone of gelato herself. Hmm.
