Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"It was amazing place with an amazing ice cream the cafe was full, and the reason is wonderful service and good food and coffee! I took espresso shaked and ice-cream it was really good, especially the chocolate one. They also have toilet."
"Visiting L’Artigiano dei Sapori – GELATO & COFFEE by Giordano Lombardi in Malcesine was an absolute delight. From the moment we stepped in, we felt the warm, welcoming atmosphere of a true artisan gelateria. Giordano’s passion shows in every detail: the décor is simple but charming, the service is friendly and attentive, and the aroma of freshly roasted coffee mingles with the promise of something sweet. According to their site, Giordano blends his love of artisanal gelato and specialty coffee with care and local ingredients.  Now, about that pistachio gelato — it was one of the creamiest, richest pistachio flavors I’ve ever tasted. The nutty taste was deep, natural, and beautifully balanced, never too sweet or overpowering. Every spoonful melted in the mouth just the right amount, leaving a lingering, satisfying aftertaste. I visited with my 2-year-old, and I have to say: this place handles little ones like pros. They were patient and kind, offering a small sample so my toddler could try before deciding. My child’s eyes lit up with delight at the flavor — and safe to say, we ended up with a double scoop! The seating was comfortable (for parent and toddler alike), and the staff didn’t rush us. It’s clear they appreciate families as much as gelato lovers."
"Stopping by this gelato spot was among the greatest highlights on our summer trip. The staff was charming, accommodating and personable, despite the intense heat of the day! Wonderful to chat with them. The gelato was incredible - the tiramisu cup that comes with an espresso shot tasted exactly like a traditional tiramisu but icy cold for the summer weather. Every flavor is just expertly made, so creamy and high quality. Speaking of which, we couldn't help peeking at the merchandise and buying two of the high quality t-shirts ;) We cannot wait to return on our next trip to Malcesine!"
"Best coffee on the Lake, no competition. Great staff, specialty coffee, and snacks! We can’t wait to come back. We had a Flat White, affogato, and tiramisu"
"The best quality gelato in town. Not many flavors available but they are all good. Some unique menus. It closes early (@7pm), so hard to catch for an evening dessert:(."
"Great café! Awesome music, very delicious cake and the coffee was the best! <3 12/10!!"
"You might have searched for it online, or you might wander down Via Porto Orientale, where under the canopy of a small vine you will find an arrangement of warm red and golden-yellow chairs. If you enter, it's the beginning of another trip—a story in which you relish savory desserts and velvety, full-bodied coffee. The main character is none other than the gelato. A kind of gelato that feels like a privilege. What you taste is pure pleasure. The deep, tightly packed flavors leave no room for disappointment. The staff is friendly, relaxed, and prompt!"
"Wonderful spot for ice cream. Lovely setting and friendly staff. Had one scoop of pistachio and one of ricotta with chocolate/biscuit toppings. The pistachio is probably one of the best I’ve had, unbelievable. Vanilla and red fruits also amazing. Definitely recommend"
