Store front

Amazing service and product. The decor is meh but they are selling amazing gelato and the staff was patient polite and spoke decent English. We got 3 scoops for 4 EUR and it was well worth it. Basil was great and unique while the melon was oh so refreshing. The strawberry my son pick was fruity but a little boring, but that was my fault. This place is a must go and buy more scoops!!!

Local Lemon

Much better gelateria then the one across the street (sorry I had to say it). The quality is superior. You can tell because they offer seasonal local fruit flavors and the gelato isn't stacked up impossibly a mile high. We had the "local lemon" and it was perfect after putting in work hiking through the hills. A bit sweet, a bit tart, and wonderfully cool in all the best ways! A piccola (small) is €2.50.

Limon gelato doesn't taste good. Bad customer service. Rude. Don't go.

Rude. Bad customer service. Limon gelato doesn't taste good. Would not recommend this shop.

Pretty good. The peach and melon flavors were a little sweet. The basil flavor was intriguing! Oh FYI, used to be called Gelateria Stalin in case you can't find it.

I came to Gelateria Il Porticciolo about 15 years ago, and honestly, it was amazing back then --…read moreone of the highlights of hanging out in Vernazza. Fast forward to now, and it's not quite the same. The staff isn't very friendly, and trust me, that matters way more than you think when you're on vacation. The gelato itself is still solid, especially if you're into fruity flavors, but it doesn't have that old charm that made it memorable. Definitely good for a quick fruity fix, but "service with a smart smile" was lacking compared to the way it used to be.

We couldn't wait to get out of Vernazza (unfortunately, our least favorite of the Cinque Terre),…read morebut we would gladly hike back for the cinnamon gelato here. I didn't expect to like it as much as I did, but almost every review I read mentioned it as a must-try, and I'm so glad I did. It's a strong but delightful cinnamon flavor, and it's not overpowering. Our eyes widened as we ate it, because it tasted exactly the way a cinnamon stick smells. They somehow transformed a basic common spice into something new and exotic. I've never eaten anything like it before. Meanwhile, my husband got a lemon slush because we were hot and sweaty from hiking between towns. It hit the spot perfectly and was so refreshing without being too sweet. Even though I loved my gelato, I also couldn't resist stealing more than a few sips. The location is perfect too, just near the center of town and also near a ledge by the water where you can sit while you people-watch and enjoy your sweet treat. Definitely make this your gelato stop in Cinque Terre. Order the cinnamon, and I promise you won't be disappointed!
