The 16 Best Restaurants In Palermo - Palermo - The Infatuation

"When it comes to sweet shops, Cappello is a true Palermitan institution since 1940 and is famous for their setteveli cake with seven layers of chocolate and hazelnut cream. Located just outside the Porta Nuova city gate, between the cathedral and the Capuchin Catacombs, it is worth going a little bit out of your way. The historic shop reopened in early 2023 after renovations with more indoor and outdoor seating, a full display case of ricotta-filled sweets, marzipan fruit, fried sfince puffs, cassata cakes, artisan chocolates, nougat, gelato and granita." - linda sarris

Pasticceria Cappello - Review - Capo - Palermo - The Infatuation

"When it comes to sweet shops, Cappello is a true Palermitan institution and is famous for their setteveli cake with seven layers of chocolate and hazelnut cream. There are two locations in the city center: the original pastry shop and its behind-the-scenes laboratory, both of which are located between the cathedral and the Capuchin Catacombs. The newly renovated shop reopened in early 2023 with indoor and outdoor seating, a full display case of ricotta cream-filled sweets, marzipan fruit, fried sfince puffs, artisan chocolates, nougat, and gelato." - Linda Sarris

When visiting Monreale with public transport, take the AST bus from Via Calatafimi (at the moment the 389 bus is suspended). Beforehand, take a detour to two nearby pastry shops, Cappello and Massaro. Their setteveli, seven-layer cakes, are insane

Delicious pastries! The tiny gelato sandwich and delizia pistachio cake were so tasty. And the cannolicchio was perfect! Great coffee too.

After trying many cannolis in Palermo, I can confidently say this was by far the best. In addition to their amazing cannolis, we sampled a variety of mignons and an iris — and everything was absolutely perfect. The atmosphere was wonderful too, filled with local workers grabbing a quick bite and kids returning from school, which made it feel genuinely authentic. The host was incredibly warm and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. We had food elsewhere in Palermo that was half as good for twice the price. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone visiting — I honestly wish I could eat here every day.

Great place for a coffee and something to nibble. Amazing croissants with pistachios and the best arancini in the city. I highly recommend arancini with carne (beef).

Local cafe/pastry shop. Came here to check if it’s actually the best cannoli in Palermo. Maybe in Palermo it may be the best but i’ve had better. Everyone may like their cannolis in many ways. Their cannoli was different. Did taste authentic. Coffee was good. Service was good, staff were friendly. The best part is this shop is local so the prices are not that expensive. 1 cannoli & a coffee for 2.5 euro! They have alot of variety I would visit again! Highly recommend.

This place was very busy on Christmas and for a reason, I saw so many beautiful pastry platters arranged in front of my eyes each more enticing than the other. Draw a number at the entrance and wait for your turn, order, pay at the cashier and pick up your carefully packed sweets. Sfogliata with ricotta was my favourite, super crispy layers and balanced ricotta cream. The pistachio petit fours was also amazing. House chocolate bars with pistachio and other nuts or dried fruit also available at the cashier desk.

Pasticceria Cappello is truly the best sweet shop in Palermo. The quality of their baked goods is outstanding, and I absolutely love it. Every time I stay in Palermo, this place makes me fall in love with the city even more. I ended up going there every day to enjoy their delicious cakes and pastries. Highly recommended!

While the cakes themselves were nice, the man who served us was rude. Obnoxious clearly into his phone more than serving us and being somewhat stuck up with my friend's best attempt to speak Italian seemingly consistently misunderstanding which cake she wanted, one or two pieces of. He then proceeded to play with his phone as he was half wrapping our package and generally seemed just annoyed at our existence. The taste of cakes was definitely not worth the attitude that we were given in this place

Hidden gem. Perfect canolo and other sweets. For those with a sweet tooth , it's compulsory to visit I really had no time to take photos as the experience to grab the lady to order was a qonquest on its own. They really have lots of costumers but it's worth
