This charming corner spot in the old town pulls off the perfect dual personality: artisanal gelato by day, craft cocktails by night. Pinocchio serves up some of the city's best homemade ice cream with flavors that rotate seasonally, from classic pistachio to unexpected combinations like lavender honey. When the sun sets, the space transforms into an intimate cocktail bar where skilled bartenders craft both classic and creative drinks. The location on Calle Mayor puts you right in the heart of historic Alicante, perfect for people-watching from the outdoor seating. Locals love stopping by for afternoon gelato with kids, while the evening crowd skews toward couples and friends looking for quality drinks without the tourist trap vibe. The staff knows their stuff whether you're asking about gelato ingredients or cocktail recommendations.
