Gigi Bar In Stresa

The waiter was friendly. He spoke English and explained everything I was interested in.

Truly TOP custard brioche... Super artisanal, try it to believe it. For me, the best custard on Lake Maggiore. Well done, pastry chef! 👍🏻

The atmosphere is a bit anonymous, but the service is friendly and fast. Excellent hot chocolate with cream and robois tea.

Excellent pastry shop. Next time I'd like to try the aperitif.

We enjoyed a leisurely coffee and cake.

On the recommendation of a friend, we decided to try this pastry shop. What can I say? The location is beautiful, the lake view is lovely, and so is the sweet and savory selection. But we weren't thrilled with the croissants, the table in the hallway (we were looking for a corner table because we have a small croissant, although it's a plus because they accepted it), the glass spray cleaner on display on the counter—no way! We ordered a coffee, an empty croissant, and a Veneziana croissant. Unfortunately, we received two croissants, the empty one covered in an excessive amount of powdered sugar, and that other croissant... but where's the Veneziana croissant? We expected the classic Veneziana shape and flavor... but no. Too expensive, and we were charged for a bombolone, which we never got. Disappointing because we had high expectations.

A cozy pastry shop with a truly pleasant atmosphere. The staff is very kind and attentive. I enjoyed a tea accompanied by a truly delicious dessert. A perfect place for a relaxing break. Highly recommended!

Cozy, inexpensive, good selection, and in such a place.

Nice place and excellent croissants. Slightly above-average prices. Good location near the lake and a large parking lot.

We went there twice for breakfast on the recommendation of our host. The first time was perfect; the order taking and service were impeccable. The second time, our opinion was more mixed. The somewhat inexperienced waiter who took our order wasn't very efficient, and the person serving us didn't seem to be fully aware of our order. The breakfasts are very good.
