Menu of Gelato Di Mezzanotte di Pronti Stefania Bartolini & C. Snc in Cattolica, Province of Rimini, Italy

Menu Overview

Located on Via Antonini in the heart of Cattolica, Gelato Di Mezzanotte di Pronti Stefania Bartolini & C. Snc is much more than a typical ice cream shop. This gem by the seaside elevates gelato into an art form, blending tradition and innovation in every scoop. As a food reviewer for Menufyy, I found their menu rich with tempting creations that capture both classic Italian flavors and inventive twists.

Their Gelato Nutellissima stands out — a decadent, creamy homage to Nutella lovers. It’s smooth, intensely chocolatey, and perfectly balanced, making it a must-try. For those who enjoy variety, the Mini Degustazione di Gelato is a fantastic way to sample multiple flavors—an inviting journey through their artisanal range, showcasing their mastery over texture and taste.

One cannot overlook the Torta Gelato, a joyful blend of frozen delight and cake that refreshes and satisfies with every bite. Another highlight, the Coppetta di Gelato con Zuppa Inglese, Stracciatella e Fragola, artfully marries the traditional Italian trifle with creamy gelato and fresh strawberry, delivering layers of flavor that enchant the palate.

The pistachio offerings, especially the Pistacchio Crema e Stracciatella and the Cocco e Pistacchi con Panna Favoloso, deserve special mention. These are crafted with care, yielding a creamy yet nutty texture that speaks to high-quality ingredients and expert preparation. The fusion of pistachio and coconut creates a tropical, luscious sensation that lingers pleasantly.

Gelato Di Mezzanotte also caters to those seeking something refreshing beyond traditional gelato with the Ledová Tříšť, a cold slush that is perfect for hot Italian afternoons. Their small portion options such as Gelato in Coppetta Piccola Crema Biscotto e Pistacchio provide rich tastes though some customers mention the price point could benefit from more affordable mini sizes.

Customer feedback paints a vivid picture. Regulars like Gessica appreciate the consistent quality over years, though she notes the millefoglie has changed from its original form and the limited lactose-free options (only fruit and chocolate) could be expanded. Rita Bini praises the generous portions and the tasty range of semifreddo flavors, a testament to their devotion to classic Italian frozen desserts.

International visitors echo similar sentiments. Saskia Priebe calls it her “absolute favorite ice cream parlor,” especially praising the mousse-style gelato and the prime location by the sea. Families appreciate the warm welcome and kid-friendly approach, as noted by Elena Romano, who values both the gelato’s quality and the friendly atmosphere despite the busy setting.

Karla PKG highlights the variety of flavors that can be visually appreciated through three large display windows. She rims the gelato’s consistency and flavor with high marks—particularly the dark chocolate, pistachio, and innovative sweet-and-salty caramel with peanuts. The whimsical unicorn-like small cone perched on the medium gelato cup adds a playful character to the experience. Nevertheless, she points out room for improvement in customer service warmth and portion pricing flexibility.

Overall, Gelato Di Mezzanotte di Pronti Stefania Bartolini & C. Snc offers a compelling mix of artisanal quality, thoughtful menu variety, and scenic ambiance. Its highlights are the bold Nutellissima, elegant pistachio blends, and inventive gelato cakes. While there is minor room for expanding lactose-free choices and improving hospitality during busy periods, the passion for gelato craftsmanship shines through every serving. For anyone visiting Cattolica, this is a destination not to miss—where the sea breeze and artisanal gelato combine to create unforgettable moments.
