Each year, million of tourists visit Venice and the vast majority of them will pay too much to eat mediocre food in tourist-traps. Luckily Venice also has a lot of (hidden) great restaurants and most importantly 'Bacari', which is their version of a Spanish Tapas bar. Bacari usually serve a variety of small colourful, budget-friendly dishes which change continuously based on the season (some actually change hour by hour). These small dishes are called 'cicchetti' and are meant to be the perfect companion to a glass of wine or a Spritz. Think of these Bacari as your local neighbourhood bar, and be ready to bend elbow to elbow with the locals. Here are my favorite places to eat, drink, snack and stay in Venice!

Gelatoteca Suso

Be prepared to wait in line, but luckily it moves pretty quickly. While the gelato flavoured change seasonally, some of my favorites are the classics like Pistacchio and Nocciola, and some more special ones like the dairy free raspberry and chocolate sorbet. They have Vegan options as well as gluten free cones available 

Well known gelateria in central Venice, not too far from the Rialto bridge. Great spot to stop! 

Artistic gelato topped with waffles, plus vegan options & cakes in a popular shop.

Amazing gelato close to the Rialto bridge. You cannot go wrong with any taste!
