Comis Ice Cafè

I enjoyed everything here! The granita with brioche is a must try traditional Sicilian breakfast. The almond and pistachio granita was so tasty and refreshing. The brioche was so moist inside and had an orange tone of flavor. And you have a stubby view of Bellini Opera house. I was lucky that they were doing some rehearsal. The service was fast and friendly too. I want to come back again next time.

Our first stop in Catania and we went back again the next day! You have to try the Granita and Brioche (ideally for breakfast, as the locals have it). We had the chocolate and Hazelnut Granita and both were amazing. Coffee was great. Service was warm and attentive. Location is perfect. Highly recommend.

I really enjoyed my time here. It became my usual my go to coffee/gelato/brioche/granita stop. Didn’t feel rushed, I was able to sit and people watch/read my book without any pressure to leave. As a solo traveller I felt very comfortable here. Staff are lovely English speaking. If ever I went back to Sicily I’d definitely return!

Great cafe offering a very relaxing outdoor seating on a quiet plaza overlooking the Bellini theater. The gelato we had was delicious, rich in flavour and with nice creamy texture. The coffee and the pistachio affogato were also great. The staff was very attentive and kind, offering an efficient and professional service. Overall, visiting this charming cafe was indeed a lovely experience for us and we can highly recommend it.

This is by far my favorite little spot for breakfast in Catania, Sicily. They sell granita all year around and they make their brioche fresh, the amount of fresh brioche I had with granita should be a crime because I completely addicted! I love how kind the staff is and the wonderful view of the fountain and theater.

Had their granita twice in one day. Excellent and already planning on going back. They are also very friendly and accommodating. Also try the scacciata for a quick lunch.

This is a lovely spot to enjoy a glass of wine and some delicious food while basking in the sun. The relaxed atmosphere and sunny setting make it a perfect place to unwind. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, adding to the overall pleasant experience. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick drink or a leisurely meal, this place is definitely worth a visit!

Nice coffe and pastry. The location and the view is fantastic from the terrace. The service is friendly and quick. Would come again! Must to try the briocche with pisstachio

Checked out Comis Ice Cafè for their desserts. They had 15 gelato, 8 granita and 6 sorbetto flavours. Service was great (one man running the front). Go inside to pay when you're done. This was the ONLY place with no coperto charge. - 2x Granita (3,50€) - mango and limone, pistacchio and mandorla. Pistacchio was the best of the four flavours. Mango and lemon were solid (very fruity, refreshing). Almond had a touch of artificial note to it

Great little place for gelato or granita, with friendly service in the middle of a piazza. I have been here quite a few times now. It is a bit touristy but you can't beat the beautiful views and friendly staff here. The lunch is rather good too, as they have a good selection of small plates like arancino, salads and panini. Definitely stop in if you're hungry while you're walking by and need a snack.

Service sweet like their treats! Before I even arrived to Sicily my husband had been telling me about his favorite gelateria in Catania. We finally made it! Tucked away thru a walking area in front of a fountain on the piazza in front of the amazing teatro this gelateria was worth the walk. Since it was a chilly night (as they all are in winter) I opted for a hot chocolate and one of the bambino's had a gelato so I was able to sample and yes it was yummy and creamy and full of lemony flavor! The Hot Chocolate was thick, oowee and goowee and sweet and creamy like a warm cup of hot chocolate pudding. Where's the churro? Delicioso! Yummy I wish I could share!! I will be running back! Don't miss it!

Comis is one of those certainties in life: like that spring follows winter, that the stars show up at night, that the earth revolves around the sun, that eventually we're all gonna die. If you stop at Comis, you will have fantastic ice cream. I'm addicted to ice-cream in an almost pathological form, and I have tried millions. This is the best. I also very much appreciate their inventiveness in proposing new flavours all the time. I was very impressed by setteveli al pistacchio: that is a medley of pistachio and almond ice cream, with bits of sponge cake and pistachio-marzipan. Moved by the sensory experience, I went back and begged for more.

Very good location and space. The waiters are very nice and competent. The service was very quick and simple in addition to the food being delicious. Absolutely recomend coming here

Decent enough ice cream, but not as good as its hype. Lovely location though, with a nice view over the fountain square.
