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.

During the few days we spent in Lake Como, we visited Gelateria del Borgo TWICE which should tell…read moreyou just how much we loved 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).

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.

The pistacchio was one of the better flavors. I'm still giving this place 4 stars because they stay open late, have a good variety of flavors and are relatively cheap.

Out of my 3 weeks Italy backpacking trip this was probably my least favorite gelato experience. We…read morecame in after a long day of walking around for a quick treat before our train left. I went with a Bambino size (kid size) for 1.50 euros after sampling one flavor. I went with their pistachio flavor which was okay. The girl behind the counter was rude and kept rolling her eyes at us although we did not do anything wrong. She was very unfriendly. They didn't have many flavors to choose from and their gelato melted fast. There was also no place to sit and enjoy your treat. Since there are so many other places to get gelato, I would not recommend this place.

Their gelato was not as advertised: the sign said mascarpone with pistachio. But what I received had raisins in it! And, it was icy rather than creamy.
