At Lanterna Magica we enjoyed some of the best ice cream I ever tasted, made with local & seasonal ingredients, and served by super friendly and knowledgeable people in a picturesque corner of old Cles

Looking for a good lunch or coffee? Or the best gelato in the region? This is the place! We had such a wonderful experience because the owner not only helped us out in English but he was also kind enough to let us know which places to go next. On our second visit he even told us the story of his shop. Really really nice. Thank you Michele. This is the reason why I would come back every year. And because of the great ice cream of course!

We stopped here randomly during our driving through the region. Simply the nicest owner, and the best coffee we had during our 10-day trip around the Alps. We might have to go back to Italy in the near future just to visit this cafe again!
