During my sister in laws 50th birthday trip to northern Italy we attempted as many gelato places as…read morepossible, sometimes 2 per day. Gelateria del Borgo is truly amazing and in our top 3 for the entirety of the trip. Usually very busy but the line moves quickly. Super nice staff and plenty of seating just across. Most gelatos in this part of Italy are more soft and airy this specific gelato is rich and creamy, almost wet. Pistachio is great, dark chocolate is awesome and unique flavors like Toblerone the family loved. Highly recommend. Make the walk to the top and don't have the tourist trap gelato at the bottom of the promenade here in Bellagio.

I visited Rome, Florence, Venice, and Lake Como. If you were to tell me that the best Gelato I'd…read morehave the entire trip was off of Lake Como, I'd slap you across the face. Lake Como had some of the most overpriced, overrated food but that was expected. You do not pay for the food, you pay for the view. We were on a private boat tour with our great guide Luca when he recommended we stop in Lenno for gelato. We stopped at La Fabbrica del Gelato and it was truly out of this world. The servers were so kind to give us their best reccs, and I am glad we sought their advice. From the texture, to the natural flavors, I was blown away at how good it was. This is a 5/5 hidden gem in a place where you do not expect great cuisine, and it was surely the surprise of our trip.

You know you are in the right place when two Italian guys greet you with smiling faces ready to let you try their gelato! The pistachio and coconut were our top choices. They let you try samples as well which is always a telling factor about a place in como. (a lot of the places in Bellagio do not allow samples and look very non homemade) Again, Don't hesitate - when in Italy eat all the Gelato you can and definitely stop here to enjoy by the waterfront!

They also had croissants, but they were definitely on the more expensive side at €6 each (despite being large). They have a great variety of Italian cookies, cakes, and desserts.

There was a long line when we went on a really hot weekend afternoon, but it moved pretty quickly. The interior has cute red paint and has a fun energy. I ordered the passion fruit and watermelon flavors. SO GOOD!!! The passion fruit was rich and tart, very true to the real fruit. The watermelon was also very real in its flavor - light, delicious, and not too sweet. I wish I could come back here everyday, but I'm not staying in Menaggio. If you're in town, definitely get your dessert here!
