Only chocolate and 3 sorbets available with no mention of vegan cones when we asked. We didn’t sample either chocolate or sorbet - looking for something more inclusive.
I’m not sure how this place got so many good reviews. I had the chioccolato fondente, and based on the reviews, I ordered a double of one flavour. The ice cream (I won’t call it gelato) tasted like a super sugary hot chocolate slushy turned into ice cream (with bits of ice slush). It had nothing to do with dark chocolate apart from the colour. Unfortunately, it ended up in the bin.
The staff weren’t very friendly, and the vegan cornetto wasn’t on display but hidden at the back.
It also cost €10 for two double-flavour gelatos, which is awfully expensive for such terrible quality.
The place had a good selection of vegan options but the flavor was mediocre and what's worse the ice-cream wasn't creamy at all but had a lot of crystalized ice (coconut flavor especially). Didn't really enjoy it and wouldn't recommend this place for vegan ice-cream.
As other reviews have mentioned the vegan options are not marked so you have to ask. Very friendly and when i was there the front row was vegan. Good variety of options😄
Like everyone else has said, the vegan options are not labeled. The only way you'd know there's any at all is the sign behind the counter mentioning a vegan frappe. But it's a good place for gelato while you're walking around the heart of Siena.
Several vegan options for gelato (not labelled, so you have to ask). Prices are reasonable, and this was the best coconut gelato / ice cream I've ever had!
they are friendly, have some milk-free (vegan) options& also vegan cones. i tried nut& dark chocolate, very nice.
also cheaper than other gelaterias in the area.
Gelato was good. Vegan options clearly marked - there was five different flavors including dark chocolate and fruit flavors. They have vegan and gluten free cones too.

Only Strawberry - Edit
How disappointing to find only strawberry. It'l was advertised as having "several" vegan options...
Read moreAt "Venchi", 1 Minute away, they had 5 options.

Several vegan flavours as well as vegan cone - Edit
You have to ask which flavours are vegan. They had strawberry, citron, chocolat, coconut, mango and more. They offer vegan cones too.

The gelato was fresh and delicious. It's not often that you can find vegan hazelnut so try it out if you can.
