Discover the best ice cream in Nice, France. Here’s AZZURRO Artisan Glacier secret:

Nestled in the heart of Old Nice, Chez Azzurro is an ice cream haven that has rightfully earned its reputation as one of the best in France. It has been ranked as one of the best ice cream shops in France according to TripAdvisor. With a passionate team dedicated to crafting delectable treats and a delightful ambiance, Chez Azzurro is a must-visit for any ice cream enthusiast.

Why Chez Azzurro Stands Out

What sets AZZURRO apart from the rest? It all begins with their dedication to sourcing the finest ingredients and crafting each batch of gelato with precision and care. Pierre Veyrat, the visionary behind AZZURRO, believes that the essence of great gelato lies in the harmony of flavors and the purity of ingredients. As he eloquently puts it, “Aucun glacier n’est meilleur qu’un autre, car c’est avant tout une histoire de goût et d’envie.” (No glacier is better than another, as it’s primarily a matter of taste and desire.)
