Gelataria Chafariz (formerly Ottavia Gelateria) is known for its refreshing fruit-based vegan sorbets, especially passion fruit and mango, but vegan options are quite limited, typically only two flavors. The shop has friendly staff noted for helpfulness with vegan inquiries, offers classic gelato flavors like pistachio and vanilla, and maintains a casual takeout and cafe atmosphere with outdoor seating and live social buzz. Prices are on the higher side for single scoops, which reviewers felt could be matched by higher quality or more vegan variety.
