Natale Pasticceria

Absolutely great ice cream! A lot of special kinds to get here with support from the friendly staff. For 3€ you get the “small ice cream”, which are two big scoops. The pastries look good as well, but we have not eaten any.

Absolutely one place in Lecce to visit over and over again to try their different pasticciotti and gelati. I had their standard pasticciotto which I think had lemon flavor in the cream, and they serve it to you warm... so delicious. People were queueing for cold granita drinks and gelato on the day I visited - and it is a nice place to stop at night in the summer.

Excellent gluten free pasticcciotto. Unfortunately risk of cross contamination. AMEX accepted

Was here back in Oct 2023, and the pastries here were delicious. Not the best pasticiotto I had in Puglia but I think 2nd best. And their gelatos was great as well. Very friendly service as well. Lecce was amazing. It was one of the 2 home bases of our week stay in the Puglia region

Stick to their pistachio flavor and you will not disappoint. It is rich and creamy, not too sweet. As someone who travel a lot and tried many gelatos in different places, I can say their pistachio flavor is among the best I have tried. The berry flavor however, is a bit too sweet and I don't recommend. Their waiting line is a bit disorganized - you need to get a ticket first before you can ask for any flavors, which is not obvious for the new customers. If you don't have a ticket then you get kicked to the end of the waiting line, and waste a lot of time.

Hands down one of the best places for both gelato and pastry in Salento that we have been to (and we have been to about 20 or so over two weeks). The gelato selection, texture, flavor, and finish are amazing. The pastries are just awesome, also with a great selection. And the service is just impeccable. We rarely visit any place more than once, and we were just compelled to go here three times! Brava!!

Long lineup on a Sunday afternoon but service was fast. The pistachio gelato was excellent - creamy, rich and not too sweet. I’ve enjoyed the custard creme more in other pasticciotto I’ve tried elsewhere.

they have an amazing pastichiotto, it was so fresh and warm. The outside so crunchy and the cream inside perfectly warm. Would match perfectly with coffee. We also had the gelatto that was delicious. Recommend the ciocolatto fondente and gianduia. The staff is super friendly and one of then could speak English and Spanish besides italian.

Delicious and wide range of gelatti Quality: 5 Value: 5 Service: 5 Ambience: NA (take-away) Natale is a great example of the best kind of Italian gelato experience. We were passing by right when they opened in the morning, and we joined the group of people lined up and ready to buy delicious ice creams and pastries. They had many flavors and patiently let us try different ones. They also have a lot of baked goods. --- Deliziosa e vasta gamma di gelatti Qualità: 5 Valore: 5 Servizio: 5 Ambiente: NA (da asporto) Natale è un ottimo esempio del miglior tipo di esperienza di gelato italiano. Stavamo di passaggio proprio quando hanno aperto la mattina, e ci siamo uniti al gruppo di persone in fila e pronte a comprare deliziosi gelati e pasticcini. Avevano molti gusti e pazientemente ci hanno fatto provare di diversi. Hanno anche molti prodotti da forno.

Very good gelato place in lecce right by the big open square with the ancient ruins - there is a line but it goes by pretty fast - they also have many baked goods but I didn't happen to try any

Excellent! Windows are decorated (as I write this, they are getting ready for Easter). Inside you will find some great gelato!
