🍩 Gelato e Basta: the true artisanal gelato of Cours Pasteur

Ambiance & décor: a true Italian ice cream parlor

At 43 Cours Pasteur, 33000 Bordeaux, just a stone's throw from the Museum of Aquitaine and Victory Square, Gelato e Basta brings a true breath of Italy. You push open the door for a quick cone, and you leave with a smile: turquoise tiles, well-aligned gelato tubs, and the warm welcome of the place.

At the counter: homemade gelato, simple and good

Here, it's artisanal gelato made on the spot, in the pure Italian tradition: dense and creamy texture, flavors that change according to your wishes, from the great classics (pistachio, stracciatella, hazelnut) to fruity sorbets with clear, distinct flavors. Our reflex: a creamy flavor + a fruity sorbet in the same cone, the perfect balance for a stroll through the city.

For whom?

This address is ideal for:

  • a gourmet break while strolling towards Victory or the quays
  • the true gelato enthusiasts who shun industrial ice creams
  • a simple pleasure with family, young and old It's not a tea salon where you sit down for a long time: here you take your cone and enjoy Bordeaux while walking.

Verdict: our favorite ice cream stop on Cours Pasteur

For a craving for ice cream without fuss but with real expertise, Gelato e Basta ticks all the boxes. My tip: go in late afternoon during the nice season, and taste the flavor of the day — that's often where the place has the most fun.
