Excellent gelato and coffee. Unfortunately, the staff often is rude.
AMAZING granita! I must give a shout out to the two men who I stopped on the street, to get some information about directions and places to eat. They recommended this bar, and even though it was a little trek from where they had been talking to me, it was my mission to find the place - and I'm so glad I did! Of all the places I ate while in Messina, this was my favorite. I wasn't really in the mood for something sweet, but oh my gosh, I'm so glad I ordered what they suggested! The strawberry granita was one of the most delicious things I've ever had and I will be back one day if I'm ever in Sicily again. While I wasn't in love with the brioche on the side, it was still good. But I wouldn't order it that way ever again. It was too heavy and because the brioche is plain, it doesn't really make sense...but perhaps I ate it wrong. The staff was very friendly, particularly the man who helped me, who I imagine was the owner (and he reminded me a lot of James Woods, but I'm not sure why exactly). The price was fair, the granita and brioche together came to just under 4 Euro. I wanted to go back later to get some pastries to take home with me, but I got turned around in the city and couldn't find the place again. :( In some way, if I were closer to Sicily I would go back to Messina just to visit this cafe' again. Definitely come in here just to try their granita - it seriously tastes like a fancy strawberry Orange Julius! Highly, highly recommended!
A really chic place with comfortable seating and a great selection choice on the menu. This is really something for all to try or regularly visit considering it is not too expensive. I highly recommend the place for all people.
Delightful spot to stop for a small bite/treat. Not touristy at all. A few staff speak a bit of English. It was a quick walk from the cruise port. The location is near a hub for for the buses, so it is easy to get to and from.
