Delizia Da Ponte - Alcoutim

Wonderful natural ice cream with lots of fruity flavours as well as some intriguing ones to try! Essential stop most nights in Tavira

Top quality gelato, with changing flavours daily. Cant stop dropping in!! €2.30 for a single scoop and cone, bargain!!

Good service and in a convenient location. Ice cream was fairly average unfortunately. We felt like it was lacking sugar, dairy or something as the taste was a little bland.

It was hard to find open gelaterias during the February low season, but we were referred by a waiter at Scoopit who gave excellent directions to the open branch. There was a limited, but interesting range of flavours available. Unfortunately, tasting is not allowed, frustrating, but understandable. Maybe some gelaterias should charge a set rate to taste 5 flavours so we can make informed choices- if not too busy. Here you have the option of splitting one scoop o to two for a slightly higher price- a worthwhile option if you are curious. I loved the coffee flavour and the chocolate was very good too. The fig was brilliant and the most refreshing was the passion fruit. My partner chose one of the various nuts and she struggled to get the flavour…so higher but content for her please. My son is allergic to nuts, so he couldn’t have, even though everything is very clearly marked, there is the risk of cross contamination for those who are very sensitive to nuts. The server spoke very good English and offered to wash the scoop separately before use- very kind. Overall one do the better gelatos we’ve tasted in the Algarve. I’m sure there are more flavour variants in the summer. Give it a try!

Not that there's much competition but we loved your fresh gelato and new flavours for us like fig and honey with ginger and thyme. Would have given you 5 stars but for the plastic spoons.
