The Super Mago del Gelo Mario Campanella

This spot is an excellent choice for indulging in desserts and ice cream treats. Although it tends to get quite crowded, the service is impressively quick, ensuring you won’t have to wait long to satisfy your sweet tooth. The prices are reasonable, offering great value for what you get. While the atmosphere may feel somewhat geared toward tourists, it still has a charming appeal that makes it worthwhile. The menu features a variety of options that, while occasionally on the greasy side, are undeniably flavorful and satisfying. I wouldn’t hesitate to return to explore more of their offerings.

we came to polignano a mare to eat, apparently. first stop of our “polignano food tour” was this coffee shop. my friends told me i absolutely had to try their “special coffee.” i asked multiple times what it was, but they just said, “you’ll see.” so i ordered it. we got three, one each, and somehow managed to grab a booth in the middle of the very busy café. clearly this “special coffee” is their thing. i finally tried it and i have to say, i was surprised. if i remember correctly, it’s made with coffee, whipped cream, amaretto, and lemon juice. sounds weird, right? but the combo actually works. creamy, bitter, sweet, and acidic all at once. hard to describe, but definitely worth trying if you’re ever in the area.

We tried the special coffee (caffè speciale) and it was very nice, very peculiar. It has a lemon zest in the bottom and then they put cream, then the coffee with amorino liqueur with foam. It was very soft to drink, we enjoyed it. It seems like it is characteristics to this gelateria, looks authentic so I definitely recommend :) We paid 5.40 for 2 coffees. They have a clean bathroom as well.

Very Italian experience:) coffee speciale was tasty and worth trying. If you want feel that real Italian coffee shop you need to visit.

Storical gelateria. We didn’t know about the special coffee, so we just took a normal one plus some gelato. Everything was good, full of people tho fast

Classic Italian experience. Served by a couple of Italians that know their coffee. Pastries were good and the coffee was great. Me and the fiance went there every morning that we were here (because they were always open early). Try the Speciale Coffee for an interesting experience.

Perfect place for a quick breakfast or sweet brunch. Ypu need to try a cafe speciale, it is a hot cafe with some licquer and lemon. Absolutely perfect.

This was my friend and I's favorite place during our 4 day visit to this town, we went 1-2 times a day. Everything we tried was delicious but the almond granita was outstanding. The man at the register with the glasses made us smile every time, he had such a quintessential Italian charm about him. The reviews claiming that the ice cream melts really made me laugh, like yeah, and water is wet, welcome to planet earth.

Gelato is amazing and caffe speciale is a must try. Long line but it went rather quickly.

Ottimo gelato, gusti un po' pochi. Originale il modo di mettere la panna e/o le noccioline sul cono. Da visitare assolutamente quando si passa da Polignano, città di Domenico Modugno
