Why everyone keeps coming back.

Nestled in the heart of Alicante at the charming corner of Calle Mayor and C. de Muñoz, Gelateria Pinocchio stands out as a delightful oasis for ice cream aficionados and crepe lovers alike. This vibrant ice cream shop and creperie captivates locals and visitors with its impressive variety of flavors and artisanal creations, making every visit a tempting adventure in taste.

Step up to the counter and prepare to be enchanted by an array of luscious gelato options that range from classic favorites to inventive blends. Customers rave about flavors like the tangy, refreshing passion fruit and the indulgent Choko Rocher, which melt in your mouth with velvety richness. Their bubble waffles are another must-try indulgence — crispy on the outside, fluffy within, and an ideal vessel for scoops of creamy gelato or a drizzle of decadent toppings. One guest fondly recalls ordering bubble waffles three nights in a row, a testament to their sheer addictive quality.

It’s a slice of sweet heaven in Alicante that’s bound to leave you with a lasting craving for more.

Perfect spot for an after dinner dessert in a bustling part of town. A little expensive, but understandable given the location. Great selection of tempting treats.
