Here are Barcelona’s best ice cream stores:
Bodevici
Pure, honest, organic ice cream! This shop whips up bold, authentic flavors with a slightly thicker texture than normal. This is because of the lack of artificial and sugary additives that are found in other ice creams. The company behind this treat is super ecologically friendly, and is part of a network of sustainable businesses throughout Cataluña that encourages healthy mind, body and spirit.
Carrer de Torrijos, 21
Gelaaati di Marco
This Italian gelateria is filled with innovative and rousing flavors like avocado, chili chocolate and pear. Located in the gothic quarter, this little slice of heaven is well known for being a popular spot for tourists and locals alike. You can also sit in the bar and have a coffee. Marco lets you taste as many flavors as you want, however choosing one is sure to be the hardest part of your visit.
Carrer de la Llibreteria, 7
Amorino
With 3 shops across Barcelona, there is no excuse not to try Amorino! There are Amorinos across the globe in China and NYC, too. As much of an art as it is a dessert, this gelato shop creates beautiful cones in the shape of roses. Be sure to have your camera ready for pictures. The intimate presentation is one thing, but let’s not forget about the taste. Each cone is full of rich, creamy goodness. Just be sure to eat it before it melts!

The store’s owner, Massimo Pignata prepares each flavor, assuring it is creamy and natural the way it was meant to be.
