"Walked by this place on our way back to my Airbnb and felt compelled to walk in and check it out. Claudio, the owner, was so friendly and lovely to talk to. He allowed us to sample many flavors before we made our choices, which was difficult because the flavors were all so good. For me, the standouts were the Nata Goiaba, Mousse de Maracuja, Frutta do Bosco, and the Jamaica. I wish we had enough time left in our trip to return!"

Hier merkt man einfach, dass der Inhaber mit Herz und Seele dabei ist. Wenn ihr in Albufeira seid, dann müsst ihr euer Eis unbedingt hier holen.

Five star service & five star ice-cream
"Whilst having a meander around Albufeira with my daughter, a sign outside the shop stating that they sell vegan ice-cream drew my daughter's attention. My daughter has an allergy to dairy, soya and eggs so it is not often that she can have ice-cream. We went inside the shop and my daughter explained her allergies to the owner, who immediately was able to tell her which ones she could safely have, and which ones she couldn't. Furthermore he let her have tasters of several of the different ice-creams that she could have to help her decide. She ended up choosing two scoops in a tub - vegan strawberry and vegan kiwi. I don't have allergies, and was given tasters too, before deciding on two scoops too, and also in a tub - coconut and Dolce di Latte. We sat in to eat. Worth mentioning that they also serve gluten free, sugar free and diet ice-cream as well as vegan and standard ice-creams. Very pleasant and helpful owner. Five star service & five star ice-cream. We would highly recommend."

"Os melhores gelados de Albufeira! São gelados caseiros feitos na unidade de produção contígua. Os meus preferidos são os gelados sem açúcar (adoçados com stevia) que ainda sabem melhor que os normais. Tem o melhor gelado de pistachio que alguma vez provei (fora de Itália). O atendimento é excelente. O dono explica como é feito cada um dos gelados e as suas particularidades. O que mais me cativa é o facto de se notar que são caseiros e feitos com produtos de 1a qualidade ao contrario dos das outras gelatarias que vêem sempre dos mesmos fornecedores."

Une délicieuse glace ?? C'est ici !!!!
"Nous avons découvert ce glacier lors de notre voyage en avril 2018. C'est en tout sincérité et avec beaucoup de plaisir que je laisse un avis très positif sur Claude et ses crèmes glacées. D'une gentillesse et simplicité extrême, il nous a fait goûter plusieurs parfum et nous avons discuté ensemble de son parcours jusqu'au Portugal. Les glaces sont délicieuses et les parfums originaux. J'espère revenir à Albufeira, et je reviendrai chez Claude sans aucune hésitation !"

A delicious ice cream?? This is it!!!!
"We discovered this gelato shop on our trip in April 2018. It is in all sincerity and with great pleasure that I leave a very positive opinion on Claudio and his ice creams. With a kindness and extreme simplicity, he made us taste several perfumes and we discussed together his course to Portugal. The ice creams are delicious and the fragrances, originals. I hope to return to Albufeira, and I will return to Claudio without any hesitation!"

"À gelataria do Sr. Cláudio "super gente boa", tivemos a sorte de numa noite ventosa em Albufeira ir parar. Espaço de fabrico próprio dos gelados, que se sente ao provar qualquer um dos sabores que o Sr. Cláudio faz questão de nos oferecer antes de pedirmos. Atenção, é das poucas gelatarias que pensa em todos, digo isto porque tem gelados vegan, sem açúcar (para diabéticos) e claro todos os outros consumidores sem restrições 😂. Espaço super agradável, recomendo o café ☕ (italiano). Em resumo recomendo a visita a esta gelataria. Sr. Cláudio muito sucesso e quiçá nos vemos aqui no norte com mais uma casa aberta."

Artisanal traditional, vegan & diet gelato
"Tantalising range of different ice creams, the proud owner will encourage you to sample all of them before you buy! The peanut butter one is my favourite. Enjoy them with crepes or waffles (with vegan options available) or take away in a cone. Great coffee too. The only shame is that it is tucked away on a small side street rather than the beach-front location it deserves."

BEST ICE CREAM EVER!
"We had the pleasure of visiting this shop by pure chance, as we took a last minute holiday to Portugal. Making our way down to the Old Town we saw this shop and wandered in as my Missus and myself are ice cream lovers. We were welcomed by the owner and his very hospitable and professional manner. He proudly talked us through his wide range of ice creams and even offered us testers of the certain flavours we liked the sound of. Nothing was too much trouble for him. A true gentleman. The ice cream flavours were amazing. They have to be the best I have tasted. Once we knew this shop was here we visited every day and enjoyed a nice chat with the owner, he is a lovely bloke and has a real passion for his job. Portugal really won us over and this man and his ice cream shop certainly contributed toward our decision! It will be worth coming back to Albufeira just to buy ice cream from this shop. See you in 2021!"

Fabuloso em tudo 🏆
"É uma satisfação enorme termos a certeza de estar a comer algo com muita qualidade, diferenciado a milhas da concorrência, e ainda por cima com um trato de excelência!
Os sabores dos gelados são uma autêntica maravilha: digo isto porque o dono do espaço fez questão que eu os provasse e ainda me deu a conhecer alguns que já foram galardoados com prémios pela sua qualidade. É sempre subjetivo, mas é obrigatório provarem os dois de chocolate (o Belga e o Gran Cioccolatto).
A massa dos crepes é de uma textura suave, feita com ingredientes de qualidade....e os waffles são simplesmente dos melhores que comi (e olhem que devem ter sido umas boas centenas!)
Palavra final para o atendimento: uma simpatia natural e cativante do proprietário, Cláudio. Uma excelência no atendimento, em nada forçado, e com a consciência de que o seu prazer maior está na satisfação do cliente, sem dúvida!
Conforme conversamos, fico à sua espera aqui na minha zona. Gaia ou Porto ficariam a ganhar com a sua presença e a qualidade do que serve, mas...o Cláudio também não irá perder nada em se mudar para uma zona que não seja sazonal. Quem muda Deus ajuda e eu fico mesmo a torcer para nos voltarmos a encontrar agora "cá em cima", ok?
Grande abraço...e sinceros parabéns pela qualidade dos seus gelados e pelo amor e carinho com que os serve! Fabuloso!"

Incredible Ice cream and incredible service
"My wife and I were searching for dairy free ice creams and we found this place online. It was completely worth the trip the stop on the way back from Albufeira. The owner greeted us and was so helpful and super keen for us to try basically every ice cream there.
They were all truly amazing but we settled for what we came for, the dark chocolate gelato. Wow. Insane. Probably the best I've had. This man and his Ice creams deserve 10 stars. Thanks!"

Delicious ice cream!
"Отличное мороженое, с натуральным вкусом. Есть даже мороженое для диабетиков, без сахара. Пробовали мороженое в Албуфейре в нескольких местах. Здесь оказалось лучшим! Хозяин - милый общительный мужчина из Бразилии. Обязательно поздоровается, спросит как дела. Мороженого накладывает много, «с горкой», порция получается большая. И при заказе 1 шарика можно выбирать 2 вкуса. Половина стаканчика мороженое одного вкуса, половина - другого. Заказывали кроме мороженого чай и кофе эспрессо - все было вкусно. Семья из России. Томск.

Excellent ice cream, with natural taste. There is even ice cream for diabetics, without sugar. Tried ice cream in Albufeira in several places. It turned out to be the best here! The owner is a cute sociable man from Brazil. Be sure to say hello, ask how you are doing. Ice cream imposes a lot, "with a slide", the portion is large. And when ordering 1 ball, you can choose 2 flavors. Half a cup of ice cream of one taste, half another. Ordered in addition to ice cream tea and espresso coffee - everything was delicious. Family from Russia. Tomsk."

"Very delicious gelato, served by the kindest man! I could tell he really enjoyed his craft. He wanted us to try lots of flavors, and they were all delicious. August 2021, a „small“ serving was up to two flavors and cost 3€. It’s a decent sized serving. Up to three flavors cost 4.50€, it was a l out of ice cream."
