Enjoy lots of ice cream flavours. This ice cream shop located just steps away from Saint Stephen Basilica. Usually very crowded, so try to find free window time afternoon. Every rose contains couple of flavours made in front of you, which made the place so...popular among instagram lovers:) So, just pay, grab your rose and enjoy the beautiful basalica!More

We enjoyed sampling flavors at this recommended gelato store near St Stephen’s Basilica. My wife really liked the rose and lavender flavors. Think about which choices you mix. For instance, cherry and Oreo don’t taste nice together, but cherry and vanilla are a good combination.

The ice cream wasn't of a high quality gourmet type, but was ok. Wasn't too expensive so no big deal. When my partner asked for ice cream in a tub the server said "but you wont have a rose", says it all, just come here...if you want photos of rose shaped ice cream or desperate to cool down.More

The Ice cream was tasty , but I think it’s over rated due to the rose shape and hence the pricing is high for the serving that they give. I have had such good ice gelato in other places which are priced better and the...serving is huge. But this could be tried one time. The flavours were good and quite nice.More

Not only is it beautiful, it's delicious. I love the incorporation of Hungarian flavors: plum, pear, poppy seed(not available right now). It has to be a hard gig - bend over, scoop small amounts of gelato and form it into a rose. I would be...exhausted after a shift and maybe they are, but the staff at Gelarto Rosa are delightful, kind, welcoming, and focused on service. Be brave, try a new flavor or two! Then, plan to go back again!More

Fabulous ice-cream, looking like a rose. Always busy here, as it's famous. We waited even 40 minutes in the queue once, but the kids were happy to wait, knowing how good it is. We always come here when in Budapest.

We came here three times in three days! I got a small cone with chocolate and hazelnut. I loved it. My wife's favorite flavors were coconut, hazelnut and coffee. My son had mango, basil lemon and hazelnut. He loved it, especially the mango. The pistachio...was bland, however.More

A great tourist attraction for people who want to take cool photos (and possibly post them to IG stories or other social media platforms, lol). The ice cream itself was very tasty, there were a lot of flavors to choose from and the staff was...great. I've already been here once a couple of years ago and I'd come again. I love this place!More

The gelato is excellent and the presentation is beautiful. Definitely worth the wait. The place can feel a bit hectic but it’s worth the long line. I recommend the mixed berry, chocolate, and pistachio flavors.

Easy to miss store in the shadow of St Stephen’s Cathedral, located opposite Starbucks. Good selection of ice creams, good quality and not overly expensive. What makes them different from the rest is that your ice cream is cleverly fashioned into the shape of a...flower on your cone, which makes it worth trying if only once. Service is quick even though there is usually a queue, payment is made first, then you exchange your ticket with the server for an ice cream. Due to the busy nature of the place you can feel a bit rushed when it comes to being served, so try to decide on your flavours while queueing (pistachio is good!).More

Gelarto Rosa has become something of a Insta Mecca for Gelato lovers, as the layered structure of the ice cream actually is very "grammable". Having said this the product itself is not just easy on the eye, but also the tongue, as the flavors are...unusual (try poppy seed), yet enyoable. This combination of view and taste has not stayed a secret, resulting in excessive lines in front of the parlour. If you go, or not, therefore depends on your time and appetite of waiting and for a beautiful, delicious piece of ice cream.More
