Why on Happy cow?

No veg option except the fruit flavours, hilarious that they proudly sponsor the vegan cone

Don’t bother if you’re vegan

The brioche is gluten free, not vegan, although they said it was until we double checked.
No vegan granita at all we were told.
The only thing that is vegan is a cone and a few fruit sorbets and even then, I’m not sure if what I had was actually vegan, although I specified before ordering anything that we are vegan.
Much better options elsewhere.

I hate doing bad reviews but I feel like it’s best to avoid if you’re vegan and don’t speak Italian because it was super hard to figure out what was vegan, maybe I should of learnt more Italian before I went to Sicily haha
The gelato place that’s a chain in Sicily (cant remember the name but it’s just off the piazza di Duomo, on Via Etnea) offers clearer info and some vegan choices of flavours. I hope that helps mate.

Granita and a view

A nice view of the square. I enjoyed a coffee and almond granita. No vegan brioche available.

Pros: Tasty excuse for a mini vegan brunch sundae

Cons: No vegan brioche available today.

Good vegan options

I had a cold soy coffee with a brioche and chocolate vanilla ice cream. The first vegan brioche I’ve found here. Very good, especially the chocolate ice cream.

Great Flavors

There are several vegan flavors to choose from - I tried the dark chocolate and melon ones, which were delicious! Will be going again before I leave Catania.

It’s common here for gelato in a cup to automatically come with a waffle cookie, so be sure to say you don’t want one.

Pros: Several options, Easy to order

Cons: Vegan options marked in small print

No more vegan brioche for granita 👎

They have great vegan pistachio and hazelnut gelato. Pistachio is a really typical flavour in Catania and this is one one the few "gelaterie" which has the vegan option, and the quality is awesome.

Edit:
They don't have pistachio and hazelnut gelato anymore. They change the flavour of the vegan gelati several times and most of them are fruit-based. Moreover, I don't find anymore the vegan brioche.

Pros: Some vegan gelato, Vegan dark chocolate, strawberry and lemon gelato

Le ultime 2 volte che sono venuto non ho trovato la brioche vegana e i gusti vegani di gelato erano di meno.

Vegan ice cream and croissants!

Cute cafe in the middle of a Piaza. Their vegan ice cream is very tasty and creamy, but it was not completely clear to me which flavors were vegan. Luckily the staff was helpful and could tell me! The next morning I went for a (still warm!) vegan croissant and a soy cappuccino, which was the perfect Italian breakfast😄

Pros: Good vegan ice cream, Helpful staff, Soy milk for coffee

Amazing ice cream!

I loved their vegan ice cream, the first time I tried ice cream made with rice milk (pistachio and hazelnut). I also tried the dark chocolate sorbet, which was also amazing! Friendly staff, nice location!
