The 16 best desserts and snacks in Ancona

If you are looking for great quality food and drinks in Ancona this is your place. Tried almost everything on the menu and never got disappointed Plus all the staff members are welcoming and nice, so it adds Plus points to the atmosphere Also everyone there speaks English, so I never had problems with making an order Highly recommend ✨️

Very tasty, low prices, excellent service. Open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Perfect pleace in Ancona! Ps. The carbonara was really amazing!!

Nice outdoor seating to take in the stunning environment. Fantastic food, beverage and sweets selection. Open during the normal "slow/closed" afternoon time as well. Great option for any craving.

Great service, and they are open when most others are closed, so very convenient. Food is good, but so many better options depending on the time of day.

I was charged 6 euros for a strawberry-banana smoothie that was just a glass of milk with ice: I saw the barman taking a big glass of milk and putting inside a small piece of banana and literally 5-10 grams of strawberry; the pieces were so small that when mixed, the milk was still almost totally white. I then kindly asked to a waitress if she could clean our table (it was filthy and sticky). She lightly nodded without saying a word and because she seemed quite annoyed, I told her that I could use her towel and clean it myself quickly (I honestly didn't want to bother her). After hearing my polite offer, she looked at me with a smirky, disgusted face, and again without saying a word, she proceeded on cleaning our table and then left (yet avoiding to reply to my third, final THANK YOU). Now I understand why I barely see any locals coming here. I won't come again.

Beautiful food but terrible service. Not tourist friendly - rather than everyone getting equal service quality + speed, lowest priority is given to tourists. Took over an hour just for my dessert to come out, whereas the locals were in and out after 2 courses in less than an hour. Tried eating there again the next day to see if staff just having a bad day, it was just as bad sadly. I speak Italian well and come to Ancona multiple times per year, so they can’t go down the ‘ignorant tourist’ route either. Avoid the toilets also. Truly disgusting.

This place was great, that’s why I’m very surprised with some bad reviews! The food was very tasty, it arrived very quickly, alfresco dining is really refreshing, the decoration is very well done, we were really pleasantly surprised. And the prices are reasonable.

I am siting outside on a sunny day during the week, lunchtime. I have a coffee, that is just ok. BUT it is very noisy outside due to traffic and the train, no view over the beach. Sitting inside is the better option. Cappuccino, €1.60. 👍

After a long day (flight from Miami to Rome and then a train to Ancona), we were greeted by chef Mario. He welcomed us, sat us down, and insisted in cooking us something special (off menu). It was all delicious. Highly recommend for atmosphere, food, and service. Our new place to go in Ancona. Thank you, Mario.

Great food and atmosphere BUT if you are a tourist or do not speak italian they will add extra items that you didn’t order to your bill if you’re in a big group.

Reasonable prices and good tasting food. The English speaking reviewer must have had bad luck, as we were served promptly and English was understood. Slightly surly waiter, but not everyone can be perky.

It is a beautiful restaurant, with some very good pizza and hamburguers. The staff is very kind. Quality price is fair (7-8euro for a pizza).

Great place ,good food , nice and quick service. I can recommend to try.👍

Vert fast service, delicious food. We enjoyed different fish dishes all very good.

One of the best ice-cream in town, and also cheap

(Translated by Google) Discovered by chance during our stay in Ancona, having read the Google reviews we decided to try it .. the choice was fully rewarded by the excellent value for money .. there are many flavors to try and different types of cones .. I appreciated the possibility to add a taste to my cone by giving up the cream of which I am not very fond .. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED .. TO TRY .. (Original) Scoperta casualmente durante il nostro soggiorno ad Ancona, lette le recensioni di Google abbiamo deciso di provarla.. la scelta è stata pienamente ripagato dal ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo.. ci sono tanti gusti da provare e diverse tipologie di cono.. ho apprezzato la possibilità di aggiungere un gusto al mio cono rinunciando alla panna della quale non sono molto amante.. CONSIGLIATISSIMI.. DA PROVARE..

Very good quality gelato and outstanding enterier design!

Amazing gelato. Great service. Don't Expert rainbow coloured ice cream and wierd flavours. This place used authentic, wholesome ingredients for their products. Unfortunately there are few places to sit, on a desolated street, but the ice cream - in my opinion - probably the best in town! They have a shop in the city centre also.

Very tasty! Maybe the best one in Ancona.

The ice cream is excellent, fresh and changing seasonal flavors. Also nice LA-style interior . Highly recommend!

Very good ice-cream and coffee. They also have soy milk :)

Delicious ice cream.

One of the best in Ancona

Number One in ancona.

(Translated by Google) We were at a birthday in Ancona and the cake had been ordered from Patrizia's pastry shop. For the cake it was beautiful we give it 5 stars but for the way it was done which was only 5 centimeters of cake and everything else was made of polystyrene we are sincerely satisfied We were very disappointed and we also made a bad impression on the guests. The cake began to defrost and run and the cake was not made as we wanted. (Original) Siamo stati a un compleanno a Ancona e la torta era stata ordinata dalla pasticceria Patrizia .C'è per la torta era bellissima li diamo 5 stelle ma per come ano fatto che era solo 5 centimetri di torta e tutto resto polisteleno c'è sinceramente siamo rimasti molto delusi e abbiamo fatto anche una bruta figura con ospiti la torta a cominciato a scongelarsi a colare e la torta non e stata fatta come abbiamo voluto.

(Translated by Google) Pasticceria Patrizia a name a guarantee from sweet to savory beautiful cakes of exceptional quality... If you want a cake and the right and unique pastry... I recommend... (Original) Pasticceria Patrizia un nome una garanzia dal dolce al salato torte bellissime e di una qualità eccezionale ... Se vuoi una torta e la pasticceria giusta e unica ...... Consiglio...

(Translated by Google) We loved this place, delicious sweets and unbeatable coffee (Original) Nos encantó este lugar, Dulces deliciosos y el café inmejorable

(Translated by Google) As usual, I relied on the feedback from Google users to have breakfast in Ancona, and therefore I found myself having breakfast at Pasticceria Patrizia. In fact, my expectations were not disappointed, I had a good breakfast with a pastry (where I come from, a croissant) and a cappuccino, the croissant dough was excellent and the berry filling was in the right quantity so as not to be excessive. The temperature of the cappuccino was perfect for my tastes, I'm sure I'll come back to try the other pastries and pastries I saw in the window. Nice place and excellent breakfast. (Original) Come al solito mi sono affidato ai feedback degli utenti di Google per fare colazione ad Ancona, e quindi mi sono ritrovato a fare colazione dalla Pasticceria Patrizia. Effettivamente le aspettative non sono state disattese ho fatto una buona colazione prendendo una pasta (dalle mie parti cornetto) ed un cappuccino, ottimo l'impasto del cornetto e la farcitura ai frutti di bosco in quantità giusta da non essere eccessiva. La temperatura del cappuccino perfetta per i miei gusti, sono sicuro di tornare per assaggiare le altre paste e pasticcini che ho visto in vetrina. Bel locale è ottima colazione.

(Translated by Google) Forced by the lack of open bars in the area, I headed for a pastry shop to buy some croissants, a terrible choice. Look at the photo, but how can you call that stuff cream? It stays in your hand! Horrible. Let's not talk about the one that was served to me as a puff pastry. The puff pastry was hard and seemed old. I'm sorry to have to review like this, but you can't remain insensitive to all this. The berry croissant is just decent. 3.30 euros thrown down the toilet (Original) Obbligato dalla mancanza di bar aperti nella zona,ho puntato ad una pasticceria per comprare dei cornetti,pessima scelta. Guardate la foto,ma quella roba come si fà a chiamare crema?Rimane in mano!Orribile. Non parliamo di quella che mi è stata servita come sfogliatella. La pasta del bignè dura,sembrava vecchia. Mi spiace dover recensire cosi,ma,non si può rimanere insensibile a tutto questo.Appena decente il cornetto ai frutti di bosco. 3,30 euro buttati nel W.C.

(Translated by Google) An ideal pastry shop!! Everything is delicious, you can choose whatever you want and you won't go wrong :) The cappuccino is one of the best I've ever tried♥️ The pistachio brioche is my favorite! (Original) Una pastelería ideal!! está todo buenísimo, puedes elegir lo que quieras que no vas a fallar :) El capuccino es de los mejores que he probado jamás♥️ La brioche de pistacho es mi favorita!

An absolutely incredible location! They have a massive collection of flavors available. The service was top quality, and the environment was very comfortable. The gelato was very tasty, and even included a mini-cone and whipped cream at no extra charge. It doesn't get much better than this. Check this place out!

Fantastico! Well worth the drive into a busy Ancona neighborhood. Prices are very reasonable and the selection is wonderful. The creamy texture, rich flavors, and bright space make this a top spot for treats in Italy. And they do cakes!

It’s good place also good taste .

Perfect!

Amo il gelato qui... the ice-cream is one of the best

The best ice-cream in Ancona and probably the best one I have ever eaten. And I have eaten a lot 😅. Must try!

Best ice cream and cake in Ancona. Highly recommended place. Available take away ice cream and cakes. Pet friendly.

(Translated by Google) Fixed point for breakfast, the only flaw is the absence of tables to enjoy a leisurely breakfast, but I understand that it doesn't always depend on them! Having ordered a very important birthday cake, the girls have always been kind and helpful, both in the pastry shop and on the phone to finalize the details. They fulfilled all my requests, created a cake that far exceeded my best expectations both from an aesthetic point of view (very important for my 25 years) and from the point of view of creation (I worked in a pastry shop and it is recognisable really great quality!). I will definitely stop by for breakfast! (Original) Punto fisso per la colazione, unica pecca l’assenza di tavoli per poter gustare una colazione con calma, ma capisco che non sempre dipende da loro! Ordinata una torta di compleanno molto importante, le ragazze si sono sempre dimostrate gentili e disponibili, sia in pasticceria che al telefono per ultimare i dettagli. Hanno esaudito tutte le mie richieste, creato una torta che ha superato di molto le mie migliori aspettative sia dal punto di vista estetico (molto importante per i miei 25 anni) sia dal punto di vista della realizzazione (ho lavorato in una pasticceria e si riconosce veramente molto la qualità!). Sicuramente passerò a fare colazione!

(Translated by Google) Nice shop with fantastic pastries. Highly recommended! (Original) Pěkný obchod s fantastickým pečivem. Moc doporučuji!

(Translated by Google) I order a birthday cake and ask to write something on it, I am told that there is not enough space as the cake is small, so I opt for a simple greeting, which, moreover, is not even written with too much precision, In the pastry shop I don't have a chance to see the cake well, I glimpse it in passing and I already don't like it too much. Once I got home I realized that aesthetically it leaves a lot to be desired, the whole upper covering has irregularities, which may be fine with me, but half the cake is occupied by a huge rose which in my opinion is of little taste, also considering that it is of a man's birthday, also the colored balls that leave stains on the cream are ugly. I would certainly have preferred to be asked if I was okay with something so risky, I took a simple and sober decoration for granted, like classic birthday cakes, I had already seen some photos but none of them corresponded to this cake. It would have been better to write what I asked rather than put that rose. At the moment I'm also a little uncomfortable having to present it like this. And after trying it I can say that the flavor of the dessert is also a bit poor. Despite this I would like to add that the staff are friendly and polite. (Original) Ordino una torta di compleanno e chiedo di scriverci sopra una cosa, mi viene detto che non c'è abbastanza spazio in quanto la torta è piccola, quindi si opta per un semplice auguri, che per di più non viene neanche scritto con troppa precisone, in pasticceria non ho modo di vedere bene la torta intravedo di sfuggita e già non mi piace troppo. Arrivata a casa mi rendo conto che esteticamente lascia molto a desiderare, tutta la copertura superiore ha irregolarità, il che mi può anche andar bene, ma metà torta è occupata da una rosa enorme che secondo me è di poco gusto, considerando anche che si tratta del compleanno di un uomo, inoltre bruttine anche le palline colorate che lasciano macchie sulla crema. Avrei sicuramente preferito mi venisse chiesto se mi andava bene una cosa così azzardata, davo per scontato una decorazione semplice e sobria, come le classiche torte di compleanno, avevo già visto qualche foto ma nessuna corrispondeva a questa torta. Sarebbe stato meglio scrivere ciò che avevo chiesto piuttosto che mettere quella rosa. Al momento mi trovo anche un po' a disagio a doverla presentare così. E dopo averla provata posso dire che anche di sapore il dolce risulta un po' scadente. Nonostante questo vorrei aggiungere che il personale risulta cordiale ed educato.

(Translated by Google) I ordered my graduation cake from them. Impeccable service. I placed the order via telephone, the owner was very helpful. I agreed on the type: sponge cake base with chocolate and pistachio. They delivered the order on time and directly to the restaurant. A perfect cake, delicate flavor and everything balanced. Fully satisfied with their product and service. Precise and kind. The guests also enjoyed the cake. You can tell they are experts in their field. (Original) Ho ordinato la mia torta di laurea da loro. Un servizio impeccabile. Ho fatto l'ordine via telefono, la proprietaria sì è mostrata molto disponibile. Mi sono accordato per la tipologia: base di pan di spagna con cioccolato e pistacchio. Hanno consegnato l'ordine puntualmente e direttamente al ristorante. Una torta perfetta, il sapore delicato e tutto equilibrato. Pienamente soddisfatto del loro prodotto e del loro servizio. Precisi e gentili. Anche gli invitati hanno apprezzato la torta. Si vede che sono degli esperti nel loro settore.

(Translated by Google) Point of reference in his family for breakfast and for celebrations. The quality of the food is excellent, the service and the staff complete the overall picture of this high rating. To celebrate my birthday I ordered a millefeuille... my mouth is already watering. I will post the photo. More than recommended!! 👍 (Original) Punto di riferimento in famiglia sua per la colazione che per festeggiamenti. La qualità del cibo è ottima, il servizio ed il personale completano il quadro complessivo di questa alta valutazione. Per festeggiare il compleanno ho ordinato una millefoglie ... ho già l'acquolina in bocca. Pubblicherò la foto. Più che consigliata!! 👍

(Translated by Google) Excellent products. Friendly and fast service. (Original) Ottimi prodotti. Servizio gentile e rapido.

Very good gelateria. Kind staff, delicious ice cream, so many flavors you can't choose.

I had heard a lot about their reputation from my wife but this time friend of my wife didn’t recommend them cause test of gelato was changed with their ownership. I found a bit less testy then others gelato shops.

Definitely on of the best ice-cream shops in the city and one for me that brings back happy childhood memories.

Large choice and very good Gelati. Very Nice guy who prepared ours ice creams.

Very good ice cream shop

One of the best Gelateria in Italy, the texture of the gelato is perfect.

My husband is Italian and he was the one who introduced me this place. And indeed it is the best in town!

Very good Gelato and Café, clean and very friendly.

The best ice cream in Ancona.

Very tasty, authentic ice cream! Choice out of about 10 fresh ice cream flavours! Really recommended!

(Translated by Google) A homemade ice cream, not too sweet, just right. The place is very clean. You can see that master ice cream maker Sandro works with passion. (Original) Un gelato artigianale, non e' troppo dolce, e' giusto. Il locale e' molto!! pulito. Si vede che il maestro Sandro lavora con passione.

(Translated by Google) A gelato shop with a wide variety of flavors, which is almost always synonymous with quality, and I have nothing to say about that. I do want to point out, however, that if you order the small cup, trust me, it's really small! You can finish your gelato in four spoonfuls. For example, I was served a cup of gelato that was perfectly level with the top, and the same goes for the cone, where the stracciatella barely reached a teaspoon. Okay, Lidl's gelato may not be artisanal, but at least for three euros you get a kilo of gelato, and it's not bad at all. (Original) Gelateria con i gusti coperti che è quasi sempre sinonimo di qualità e su quello non ho nulla da dire. Mi preme dire però che se prendete la coppetta piccola, fidatevi che è davvero piccola! in 4 cucchiaiate avete finito il vostro gelato. A me ad esempio è stato servito accuratamente a raso coppetta, stessa cosa per il cono dove la stracciatella raggiungeva a stento un cucchiaino.. ok il gelato del Lidl non sarà artigianale ma almeno con 3 euro prendi un Kg di gelato e neanche cattivo

(Translated by Google) Unexpected discovery, I found myself here by chance and I am surprised. The place is under an ancient portico, a beautiful setting for an ice cream shop. Traditional artisanal ice cream maker, no strange flavors. Very good ice cream, kind and smiling service. (Original) Scoperta inaspettata, mi sono trovato qui per caso e ne sono sorpreso. Il locale sta sotto un antico porticato, una bella cornice per una gelateria. Gelatiera artigianale tradizionale, niente gusti strani. Gelato molto buono, servizio gentile e sorridente.

(Translated by Google) A pleasant experience that began a few years ago and continues today. Their ice cream is fresh and very well made, as well as delicious, and I recommend it to people of all ages. (Original) Esperienza gradevole che è iniziata qualche anno fa e che continua tutt'ora, il suo gelato è fresco e molto curato oltre che buono e l'ho consiglio alle persone di tutte le età.

Yum! Busy place but they were fast getting to everyone. Decent sized scoops. The four flavors we tried were lovely, smooth and very tasty.

We ordered and we pay exactly the same, just served by two different employees. When I asked why we didn’t get the same she looked me ironically and served the next customer. Well done people

Excellent gelato, creamy and full of flavor. We stumbled upon this cremeria while walking through the city center and I'm so glad we did. The gelato was fantastic – incredibly smooth and you could tell it was made with high-quality ingredients. I had a scoop of hazelnut, along with a classic crema (vanilla). Both were delicious and not overly sweet. The texture was perfect, very creamy and dense. The little branded wafer on top was a nice touch. It's located on a charming side street, making it a great little spot to grab a treat while exploring. Highly recommend if you're looking for proper artisanal gelato in Ancona.

The greatest gelato in Ancona The place have many flavours to offer for a low price My personal favourite was pistachio and chocolate

Great ice cream shop with very nice granita

Very good flavor and affordable price. Favorite flavor was passion fruit & mascarpone and the mulberry (gelso)

Very good and original flavours. Personnel not very friendly though. Portions are also smaller than usual in the region

(Translated by Google) after having tasted the delicious cakes and semifreddos, the single portions on Sunday we wanted to taste the new proposal contained in these witty containers that leave you speechless & with the empty jar.......!!!! tied for first place: SIMONE-chocolate & raspberry DONATELLO-mascarpone & caramel CARLETTO-zabaglione & amaretto!!!!! (Original) dopo aver assaggiato le buonissime torte e semifreddi, le monoporzione della domenica abbiamo voluto assaggiare la nuova proposto contenuta in di questi contenitori spiritosi che lasciano senza parole & con il barattolo vuoto.......!!!! primi classificati a parimerito: SIMONE-cioccolato & lampone DONATELLO-mascarpone & caramello CARLETTO-zabaione & amaretto!!!!!

(Translated by Google) I apologize in advance for the quality of the photo and that the glowing stars were already there; but I really wanted to compliment you on the beauty and exquisite flavor of this hazelnut and chocolate semifreddo cake. I've never tasted anything better! Congratulations!!!! (Original) Mi scuso in partenza per la qualità della foto e perchè ci erano già state le stelline luminose; ma volevo davvero complimentarmi per la bellezza e per un gusto squisito, torta semifreddo nocciola e cioccolato, mai mangiato nulla di più buono! Complimenti!!!!

(Translated by Google) Between two layers of buttery pastry and tufts of enveloping cream you will find all the passion for pastry making of this creative and professional staff. The sincere kindness and availability towards the customer's needs are real distinctive touches, like their sugar decorations and soft macarons! 😉 (Original) Tra due strati di frolla burrosa e ciuffetti di crema avvolgente ritroverete tutta la passione per la pasticceria di questo staff creativo e professionale. La gentilezza e la disponibilità sinceri verso le esigenze del cliente sono veri tocchi distintivi, come i loro decori di zucchero e i morbidi macarons! 😉

(Translated by Google) Super! Professionalism, politeness, seriousness, availability and courtesy! Ah! Obviously the product is indescribable! You should try it to understand! Truly super! Well done to all the staff. Too bad I don't know how to add the photo 🤣 (Original) Super ! Professionalità, educazione,serietà, disponibilità e cortesia! Ah ! Ovviamente il prodotto è indescrivibile ! Dovreste provarlo per capire ! Davvero super ! Bravi tutto lo staff. Peccato che non so aggiungere la foto 🤣

(Translated by Google) The products are of the highest level, good and tasty. Plus you have the security of eating healthy products, which I think is the most important thing these days, if you don't feel like going to the store, with the online shop you order from home and the delivery is delivered to your home. For Christmas I ordered several hampers online and they arrived on time, beautiful and very spectacular, what can I say I'm 100% satisfied. (Original) I prodotti sono di altissimo livello, buoni e gustosi. In piu si ha la sicurezza di mangiare prodotti sani, che di questi tempi credo sia la cosa piú importante, se poi non si ha voglia di andare al negozio, con lo shop online ordinate da casa e la cosegna é a domicilio. Io per il natale ho ordinato diversi cesti online e sono arrivati puntuali belli e molto scenografici, che dire sono soddisfatto al 100%.

(Translated by Google) I ordered a cake for four, and besides being incredibly kind, Filippo and his colleague were brilliant: the cake was gorgeous and delicious! We'll definitely be back! (Original) Ho prenotato una tortina per 4, oltre ad essere di una gentilezza unica, Filippo e la sua collega sono stati bravissimi: torta splendida e buonissima! Ritorneremo di sicuro!

(Translated by Google) They have already made cakes for me twice and there will be a third! Delicious and beautiful, also add helpful and kind staff (Original) Sono già due volte che realizzano torte per me e non ne mancherà una terza! Buonissime e bellissime, mettici anche un personale disponibile e gentile

Good

Wow

NUMBER ONE.

(Translated by Google) Giampaoli, at Christmas and Easter it's absolutely worth it. Both panettone, doves and Easter eggs are super good! Although in my opinion Easter desserts are the best, because compared to Christmas desserts, they are fuller of creams. The wholemeal and non-wholemeal biscuits are also very good... Then if you reheat them they are even better! Advise! (Original) Giampaoli, sotto Natale e sotto Pasqua vale assolutamente la pena. Sia panettoni che colombe e uova di pasqua sono super buone! Anche se secondo me la i dolci di pasqua sono i migliori, perché rispetto ai dolci di Natale, sono più pieni di creme. Molto buoni anche i biscotti integrali e non ... Poi se li riscaldate sono ancora più buoni! Consiglio!

(Translated by Google) Even though we're 50 km away, my husband and I go every month and a half to stock up on cookies and other products. Maybe we're lucky because we always find delicious products. I also have a small comment about the sugar-free cookies; perhaps add a few more products. Thanks. (Original) Io e mio marito anche se siamo a 50 km andiamo ogni mese e mezzo a fare scorta di biscotti ed altri prodotti. Forse siamo fortunati perché troviamo sempre prodotti buonissimi. Anch'io faccio una piccola osservazione riguardo ai biscotti senza zuccheri, magari aggiungere qualche altro prodotto. Grazie
