Il Gelatiere In Milano

30/05/2026: I had a coffee and ate an amazing apple pie. I'd say HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

19/04/2026: Good quality pastry shop with a small deli in Piazzale Bande Nere in Milan. Excellent coffee. Unfortunately, however, I absolutely cannot give five stars for the service of an inexperienced waiter who, combined with the positioning of the tables on the extremely sloping sidewalk, caused the contents of an entire cup of coffee to spill on both me and my dog, a white Maltese. There weren't even napkins on the table to remedy the situation promptly. So far, it can happen; I didn't blame the waiter because I always respect the work of others and fully understand that only those who do nothing never make mistakes. What I find inconsistent with the attentive management and the attendance of a pastry shop so great that it's the most well-known in the neighborhood—certainly not a failing business—is the fact that, despite having brought the incident to the attention of the owner, not even a drink was offered, considering that a dog grooming service in Milan (mandatory because the brown coffee has been absorbed by the white coat and cannot be removed) in the area costs on average no less than €60-70. I'm not saying this expense should be reimbursed, as is generally the norm for dry cleaners in similar cases, but at least the drink, worth just €6, could have been offered, given that the owner was informed of the incident. It would have been a symbolic gesture, but appreciated, given the damage caused and, in addition to the expense, the time spent booking and picking up the dog from the groomer.
