Cascais

An ice cream parlour from 1949

Santini opened in 1949, when Attilio Santini began selling ice cream on the Estoril coast, and it is still family-run. The ice creams are made with fresh fruit and natural ingredients, with no flavourings, colourings or thickeners, and the sorbets only with fruit, with no pulps or concentrates. Each month a new flavour comes out.

Where it is and when it opens

The bay shop is at Alameda dos Combatentes da Grande Guerra, 100, two minutes from the train station and Ribeira beach. It is open Sunday to Thursday from 11:00 to 23:00 and on Fridays, Saturdays and the eves of public holidays until midnight. At the Cidadela there is a smaller Santini Corner, from 10:00 to 21:00.

What to order: a seasonal fruit sorbet and the flavour of the month.
