Allow me to inform you that we're not a vegan enterprise, but we offer vegan options.
By the way, 7 vegan gelatos in 20 are substantial if you consider we have 7 vegan customers for every 93 non-vegans.
Allow me to explain your comment "bit expensive". Most of the products come from abroad, some overseas, and usually, vegans and organic products are more expensive because their ingredients are more expensive at all, mainly here in the south of this country.

Great vegan options and the owners are soooo friendly

There are a bunch of vegan options and the owner let me taste what I wanted. I had a vegan waffle with a scoop of vegan peanut ice cream and it was delicious. The dark chocolate, mint+chocolate, kiwi, and green apple flavors were also amazing (but I had to choose ahah). Some of them are sweetened with stevia instead of sugar.

The owners were extremely friendly and welcoming.

Pros: Lots of delicious vegan options, Vegan waffles and crepes, Most friendly staff

Great!

Good ice cream and they also have vegan crepes and waffles which are hard to find.
The only thing I could recommend is; for the taste testing they could use real spoons or wooden throw away spoons as to make less plastic waste.

I apologize, but I can not understand why it's so difficult, and so expensive to get wood spoons here in Portugal. That's why we only have plastic ones.

Un très bon moment passé ici de dimanche 26 janv. 2020

Crêpes et gaufres véganes au chocolat sont délicieuses.
Le serveur est super sympa et à fait beaucoup d'effort pour nous parler en Français.
Nous y retournerons

Amazing

Claudio is exceptional. Great tasting gelato, great conversation, great options and had recommendations for things to see and do while in Portugal. We both had vegan chocolate and vegan peanut butter. Vegan cones as well which we were particularly happy about. He remembers people and loves a conversation.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Options other than gelato

Tasted great

I got to taste all the vegan icecream and especially the dark chocolate and kiwi ones were delicious. The owner is very warm and friendly, from Brazil. It was closed on certain weekdays in mid October so ring ahead.

Sugar free peanut butter gelato and chocolate gelato

What a delight this little place was! 3 sugar free options and also many fruit vegan gelato. I chose the chocolate vegan gelato and paired it with the peanut butter. Match made in heaven. The owner is a friendly man who shared some of his life from Brazil with me! Reccomend this place for the flavours and the friendliness. And their cones were vegan!

Amazing

We were really impressed with the vegan selection and the incredibly friendly owner. He allowed us to try all the vegan ice-cream flavours.

It was really great to see some original different flavours like papaya. The owner told us he was keen to provide vegan options after watching a number of Netflix documentaries.

I’d recommend all vegans stop by!

Best Vegan Ice-cream Ever!

By far the best Ice-Cream I've ever had in my life. The owner (Claudio) was so friendly & gave us samples of every vegan flavour to help us decide. I had a chocolate and peanut combination while my husband opted for green & kiwi.

We have one more day left in Albufeira & we plan on making two more trips to Italian Freddo. It is that good!

Pros: Good vegan options & decent prices , Friendly staff , Super clean & close to the beach

Cons: None at all!
