🍨 Why Visit

La Romana started as a single Rimini gelateria in 1947 and grew into a name known across Italy, but the original still stands on the old town's main street. The gelato is made the old way, and the queue on a summer evening tells you the town still rates it first.

🍦 The Order

Pick your flavours, ask for the cream on top, and eat it on the walk down the Corso d'Augusto toward the square.
