Having driven the couple of hours from Orta to Locarno is was ready for a coffee, and the espresso did not disappoint! And the gelato! Two large chillers filled with an extensive variety of fruit and cream based flavours. As tempted as I was by the amazing chocolate varieties, I went with a scoop of mango and a scoop of fruits of the forest. Delicious! Full of flavour, every bite was fab. Make a detour before you go up into the mountains, you'll be glad you did.

But when I saw they had tiramisu and Toblerone flavors I had to get both. The two of us shared a small cup and it came with two flavors which was plenty for a quick gelato stop for us. The tiramisu flavor was so creamy and rich in flavor. So was the Toblerone and the chocolate pieces were big. I'd highly recommend this place.

Definitely our favorite out of the ones we tried in the area. This gelato spot is very centrally located amongst all the other small shops and restaurants in Bellagio and even if there's a line, it moves quick! The hazelnut (nocciola) is a MUST TRY as it literally tastes like a Ferrero Rocher in gelato form. We enjoyed other flavors as well including the cherry (amarena).

This one is located near the duomo and wasn't too busy despite the presence of their breakfast menu and multitude of tables. There was definitely a small up charge to sit at the tables which was of no bother. The affogato felt oddly satisfying in the morning, though the vanilla gelato was more the texture of ice cream. Maybe they save the real gelato -- which are kept in the small covered metal containers -- for the actual gelato orders?
