With an abundance of toppings, you can cater your order to anyone's taste or choice. They also had a very cute setting, I was a fan of the aesthetics. There's a variety of sizes for the frozen yogurt, as well as some other more creative dishes that include frozen yogurt. If you want, you can have your frozen yogurt with fruit, shaken, or otherwise. The person working was cool, and I heard them gladly explained the choices to other customers while I was enjoying my frozen yogurt. The combination of frozen yogurt and fruit though, great combo. If in Coimbra again, I'll come back. It's a great refreshing snack after being in the heat or climbing all the way up the hill to get to the campus!

Every time I go to Portugal, this ice cream shop is a must. It's become part of my routine because…read moreit just never disappoints. The ice cream is always so good especially with the waffle being h, but honestly, it's the whole experience that makes it special. The views are what really take it to another level. Sitting by the beach with the water right there, enjoying something sweet; It's just one of those moments that feels unreal. The scenery is so peaceful and beautiful, it makes you want to stay there forever. And on top of that, the prices are amazing. You get such high-quality ice cream without feeling like you're overspending, which makes it even better going back again and again. It's one of those places that just feels like a tradition now!! great ice cream, stunning views, and a vibe you can't get anywhere else.

Gelatomania in Nazaré, Portugal is decidedly geared towards tourists with its very anglicized name…read more No matter though, the gelato is excellent. We chose one called Pirata, meaning pirate, and is a cherry flavor. It is fruity delicious, creamy, and fresh. Service was average. I don't blame the guy though. The very distracted customers ahead of me were particularly yelling their orders just because English isn't their first language, either. Some customers are unintentionally rude. The store is sparkling clean and looks new. The cost was very good. I think it was €2.50 for a cone.

Amazing spot for coffee and ice cream. I stopped by twice in one day! That shows how much I loved…read moreit! First stop was for a cappuccino topped with cocoa powder which hit the spot. Second stop was for ice cream. They were so many unique flavors to pick from - it was so hard to decide. You can sample flavors but only after picking a size (cone or cup) and making a payment. The cup sizes include one less flavor so for example with a medium cup, you can select up to three flavors. With a medium cone, it is just two. The prices are very reasonable and the staff is incredibly patient as you sample and try the different flavors. They also speak English and will help translate and explain flavors. I ended up going with a medium cup with pistachio, fig and ricotta and golden milk (turmeric, cinnamon, ginger and black pepper - it's amazing!) They have both non-vegan and vegan flavors so ample choices for all diets. There is very little indoor seating (one table) but plenty of seating (tables and chairs) outside for people watching. I cannot recommend this place enough!

We were craving gelato after having dinner at Praça de Parada near the Clerigos Tower and were…read moredelighted to find this gelato shop just a few minutes walk away. I was initially attracted to this place due to the reviews mentioning fruity gelato flavors like watermelon, coconut and white grape but they must be seasonal because I was slightly disappointed to discover only 3-4 basic fruit sorbet flavors out of 12 flavors they were currently offering. My boyfriend opted instead for a scoop of pistachio, and after one lick I was enlightened. It tasted equally as good as the gelato that I've had in Italy and suddenly it made sense to me why everyone loves pistachio as I've never really been a big fan. Rich and nutty with a creamy, velvety texture that gives it just the right mouth-feel... and for less than 4 euros?? I only wish that we hadn't discovered this spot on our last night in Porto because I definitely would have been tempted to revisit.

"A Rose by Any Other Name Would Taste as Sweet." (Misquote, "Romeo and Juliet")…read more Juliet was perchance ordering her rose-shaped gelato from Amorino, whence she first spoke her most famous phrase, upon discovering these frozen blooms were as sweet and fine of works of art as those wrought by Mother Nature herself. Amorino Gelato 'twas founded in the year 2002 by two Italians, bosom companions from their youth. Their first shop commenced in Paris, and from there the chain doth spread its fame 'cross the world o'er. What maketh Amorino so special is not just that their gelato is all natural and organic, but also that their dessert artists masterfully carve gelato petals into the shape of flowers! Thou mayest order endless flavors such as Sri Lankan Coconut or Orange Blossom Cream... as many flavors as there are petals upon thy cone. All this is then crowned by a gelato-filled macaron. I ordered the basil lime alongside the tiramisu, topped with a pistachio macaron. The resulting sweet rose was rich and much smoother than the course of true love, but alas, did not survive as long as any botanical bouquet I have e'er received. Overall, this doth prove a merry and touristic experience, without forfeiting the quality thereof. Stop in to treat yourself or to give some sweets to the sweet. Get thee to Amorino...or get thee to a nunnery!

We had the coffee and caramelo gelato bola on it, being from America I like my coffee ice cream very well seasoned of coffee this one was not as flavorful and tasted fake. The caramelo however was the best I've ever had. The bananas and kiwi were perfectly ripe, the pineapple was overripe. The crepe was very good just thicker than i had expected. The chantilly was on point and the Nutella drizzle made it a complete dessert. The chocolate drizzle i could have done without, not the most flavorful and a bit chalky for my taste and i love dark chocolate so it just didn't vibe with me. The service was spectacular! We went mid day after having churrasco. We have driven by at night though which seemed to be just as busy as during the day. Great local sobremesa spot.
