Gelateria Michel
About
Gelateria Michel is a family‑run artisanal gelato shop nestled in the historic centre of Peschici, just a stone’s throw from the sea in the Gargano National Park. Founded in 1999, the stall prides itself on slow‑food, IGP‑and‑DOP‑certified ingredients sourced directly from local farms – citrus, olives, pears, fig, and locally harvested berries. The menu offers a range of classic and “cremolata” flavours crafted with simple, high‑quality ingredients, free from artificial additives, and catering to vegan, gluten‑free and lactose‑free customers. An intimate, welcoming atmosphere meets the aroma of freshly churned gelato, making it a beloved stop for locals and tourists alike. Whether you’re treating a child to a scoop of sour cherry or sampling a citrus‑infused sorbet, Gelateria Michel delivers a taste of true Italian heritage with a modern, eco‑conscious twist. Its location on Piazza del Popolo places it amid picturesque streets and easy access by foot from the waterfront and local transit. Plan to visit during late spring to early autumn, when the freshest fruits arrive, and you’ll experience the gelato at its peak charm.
