Overview

Gelateria bar Nonna Carmela Capri, nestled in the charming Piazza della Vittoria of Anacapri, Italy, offers an authentic taste of Italian gelato artistry. This ice cream shop stands out for its rich variety of flavors and freshly made waffle cones that are thin and perfectly crisp, enhancing the overall experience.

The highlight here is undoubtedly the gelato. Patrons praise the creamy texture and intense flavors, particularly admiring combinations such as chocolate with orange bits and the intensely flavored lemon sorbet. Fruit lovers will appreciate the vibrant mango and lemon pairings, while classic choices like pistachio deliver a powerful and satisfying taste. The sorbet options, including the “Sorbett Lemon S,” provide a refreshing contrast to the creamier selections.

Beyond gelato, Nonna Carmela showcases Italian specialties such as Saltimbocca and fresh natural lemon juice, complementing the sweet offerings with savory and refreshing options. This blend of sweet and savory caters well to visitors seeking a complete taste experience rooted in local tradition.

The atmosphere of the gelateria reflects its location – a bustling yet friendly spot in one of Capri’s key squares, inviting tourists and locals alike. The service, while warm, can be slow during peak times, a trade-off for the carefully crafted flavors and freshly prepared cones. The space caters well to families, couples, and anyone aiming to savor a genuine island treat amid a lively setting.

Although prices lean toward the premium side, the quality and authenticity of Gelateria bar Nonna Carmela Capri justify the indulgence. Whether you’re after intensely flavored fruit sorbets or indulgent creamy gelatos, this spot remains a must-visit gem on Capri island.

The best chocolate & orange bits gelato I’ve had in Italy. The lemon sorbet has the most intense flavor of the 3 lemon varieties. The cherry gelato was amazing so is the chocolate all the flavors and creamy texture are simply yum yum yum!

4 euros for a medium cup with 2 flavors or 3.50 euros for a small cone with 2 flavors. The flavors were hit or miss, we got a tiramisu and a Capri special. Capri special was good but tiramisu tasted like coffee (which may have been the intent)

Come to this gelateria for freshly made waffle cones, extremely thin and crispy. The gelato itself was perfectly smooth and creamy, however the flavors were a bit bland and indistinguishable. The only flavor that really packed a punch and was delicious was the pistacchio gelato. Further, the prices are on the higher end: - 3€ / 3.50€ for 1 flavor (cup/cone) - 4€ / 4.50€ for 2 flavors (cup/cone) - 5€ for 3 flavors (cup)
