Massimo Gelato De Pijp

Massimo Gelato is one of Amsterdam’s most popular gelaterias, founded by an Italian artisan known for using only fresh, natural ingredients with no artificial additives. The gelato is handmade daily, offering classic yet refined flavors like pistachio, hazelnut, lemon, chocolate, milk, and seasonal fruits — all creamy and perfectly balanced. I tried the pistachio, and it was incredible! Smooth, rich, and full of real pistachio pieces — absolutely delicious! 🍨💚

Great gelato, extremely friendly staff, sometimes a long line (quite quick but still…) so make sure you go at the right time to avoid it! Delicious sorbets and ice cream, a lot of choices - the classics and beyond. Did not try the milkshake but will next time…

Sweet little gelato place, lots of flavours to choose from. Service was smooth, in and out no hassle. Taste was great, real quality. No question, I'll be back before this trip over.

Good price and good quality gelato. The texture is amazing. Highly recommend the dark chocolate (real dark, perfect taste) and the pistachio with bits of pistachio, super refreshing and just tastes natural. The staff are also nice. There are two benches outside where you can sit to eat the gelato.

There was a bit of a line and it moved slowly but well worth the wait. The gelato was delicious and the whipped cream was some of the best I’ve ever had. It made me regret the lack of Dutch dairy I had eaten up to this point in my trip. So good!

There was line of people queuing when we passed by, so we came by and join the queue. It was a quite nice gelato, we tried the Coffee flavour. Coffee taste was a bit subtle and not too strong, but still can taste the coffee. Gelato texture not too goey nor too sticky, so can start to melt quite fast. Portion of 1 scoop quite small, not a big scoop.

We were staying at a nearby hotel in De Pijp and luckily came across Massimo Gelato on our first night in Amsterdam. Absolutely delicious and worth the wait (there is always a line but it moves quickly) We would stop by Massimo every evening after dinner on the way back to our hotel and will always have fond memories of eating amazing gelato in the beautiful city of Amsterdam:)

Went today with kids.My son got strawberry, as it was a sorbet he didn’t like it.The staff was so kind and friendly that they offer us another flavour.The ice creams were yummy and also reasonable. Loved it

Delicious gelato!!! There was a line out the door, but it moved fast, and it was worth it!

I enjoyed the gelato here! It is a very small place with no seating but there is a little standing space. The staff were all friendly and I got to try flavors I might like.

Amazing gelato tucked away from downtown! First, they have the metal tins which is a good sign of excellent gelato. They also have so many flavors and most of them are super good. I got the pistachio and flavor of the week which is yogurt with berries. The pistachio is comparable to what I got in Italy, so that was a nice surprise. My friend got strawberry and milk chocolate. The strawberry was just ok so I would stick to the other ones.

Super neat spot with tons of selections! The person really knew alot about each of the gelato and their flavors are delicious. I had to come back and get 2 more scoops. The flavors pistachio and Latte were exquisite together. I am definitely returning a few more times!

Their gelatos are super tasty and super fresh! Strattotella, pistachi, Cafe flavors were amazing

Great tasting gelato - we were visiting Amsterdam and had an ice cream craving - glad we found this shop

We wandered in midday Friday to no lines and were treated to perhaps my favorite gelato I have had the pleasure to taste. The pistachio was so full of flavor and the dark chocolate was DARK! None of that milk shit....thanks Massimo!

Long lines for great gelato. I think the passion fruit is my favorite.

While visiting the Netherlands for over 10 days, I literally ate gelato/ ice cream every day and attempted to taste it from different places. I must say this place was by far my favorite. The gelato tasted amazing, you could tell the ingredients were all so fresh. They allow you to sample different flavors and my favorite had to be the ricotta and caramelized figs. My friend wanted to try the white chocolate raspberry, but we were told that it was no longer available so she opted for the lime sorbet and melon sorbet. Wish I would have found this place on the earlier time of my trip because I would have definitely stopped by several times.

It is just in front of my favorite Pizza place. No best way to end up a great pizza experience with a great ice cream right after and here they know their stuff. It is quite a big shop, not open till late but just the right time to enjoy it. They have some chairs outside but anyway they are two step away form the park where you can continue enjoying your ice cream :) Great selection form the most traditional flavors to the weird ones. They have also yogurt ice cream, which is not one of my favorites but still it adds to the selection and choices. Service is really nice and welcoming. Not too pricey.

When I was searching on Lonely Planet, I found this gelato treasure. I ordered cheesecake with berries and combined it with dark chocolate gelato. Wow. I will definitely be coming back. Such a cute and quiet neighborhood sitting outside enjoying my gelato.

The spot for gelato. Homemade with great coffee & super nice staff & owner. Stop by after a meal at foodies down the street.

Delicious vegan chocolate gelato. 3 euros for the 2 scoop you see here. Cone is not vegan so I got it in a cup, a little sad about that, not the full experience but at least I saved a few calories I guess.

I'm not sure what they put in this gelato, but it puts a lot of ice creameries and gelato joints to shame. I had to have the 2 scoops 'cuz 1 scoop would not be enough.....tiramisu and the nutella....heaven!

I got a cone with chocolate and cantalope ice cream. Prices were pretty reasonable and the ice cream is delicious.

I love the hospitality at this gelato spot! The staff are super kind and personable. The vegan chocolate gelato was absolutely delicious and was the perfect treat to end my day without going over-top-gluttonous with a dessert. Loved it!

Very high quality and delicious gelato but poor organization and below average customer service knock it back a couple stars. You need to tell them how many scoops total at the beginning and pay and then receive a ticket. You then show the ticket to the second person who you tell your exact order to. This unnecessarily slow and awkward process seems backwards to me and created congestion and confusion. Surprising for a culture that seemingly thinks of everything. There was a line out the door and almost nobody inside... On top of this, the flavors they have did not match what was on the big board that everybody looks at while they wait. You decide what you want, then after being told it's not correct, you have to crouch down and go down the case and read each flavor before making a new decision... All in all they have a top notch product, the coconut was memorable and the pistachio and nutella were special. If they simplified and subsequently sped up the process (order what you want, receive product, pay at the end) and updated the signage, and had a slightly friendlier staff, this would easily be 4-5 stars. But until that happens it's just average cabbage.

While traveling in Amsterdam we would plan our walk home to stop at this gelato establishment. Every flavor you could ever want. Like heaven when it touches your taste buds. The most delicious gelato in the whole city- you must go. We love the chocolate, walnut, walnut + cheese, hazelnut, and Nutella.

This little shop is going it if the tourist area and had authentic gelato. Awesome!! The place is very quaint and not somewhere you would expect to visit. Worth the 20 minute walk!!

Scoops were smaller than I'm used to but were the perfect size. Cost was completely reasonable: 1.50 for 1 scoop, 3 Euro for 2 scoops. Ordered pistachio and milk chocolate - delicious, not overly sweet. My family also ordered salted caramel and licorice. A hit all around. We went at 2100 and there was a line out the door. Would definitely go again.

Excellent gelato. You can get a small for just 1.50 which is just enough for a small snack. All flavors are natural with real fruits/nuts, etc blended in them. So good!!They also have great coffee.

We were on a food tour and our guide took us to her favorite gelato stop. We found a number of sorbetto flavors to choose from. We chose strawberry, chocolate, mango and raspberry. Definitely tasty if you are in the area!

I have had many gelatos in Italy and elsewhere, and this is truly the best I've ever tasted. Amazing.
