The ice cream here is amazing! The staff are very kind and friendly. The Limoncello is a must-try. All the ice creams are homemade, which makes them even more special. Highly recommended!

Great lemon pie, very fresh but we waited too long to order. Would be nice to have more people working during the rush hours. Nice place to see the sunset!

About

Renowned dessert and coffee shop featuring legendary ice cream widely considered the best in Greece. Excellent coffee, pastries, and professional service with thoughtful hospitality. Central Molyvos location perfect for a leisurely treat with outdoor seating.

Before you go

What to expect

The Blue Fox is the kind of place that draws people back every afternoon of a Molyvos stay — the ice cream comes in carefully crafted flavours and a scoop or two at one of the outdoor tables, watching the village go by, is the natural way to end a hot day. The coffee is taken just as seriously, and the staff treat you like a regular even on your first visit.

Best time to visit

Open through the summer season; July and August are the busiest, so aim for a morning or evening visit to skip the midday queue.

How to get there

Molyvos is about an hour's drive from Mytilene along the northern coastal road. The Blue Fox sits in the centre of the village and is easy to find on foot once you arrive.

Oh my GOD!!!! This place has the best icecream in ALL OF GREECE!!! Please stop by you will not regret it. The service was first class. We got to try lots of flavours then sat down. The beautiful young owner came got our order. She then brought us all water. At the end surprised us with a chocolate cake to share. It was the most moist decadent dessert EVER. They also serve pizza and much more with a breathtaking view OMGGGGGG

Best Ice Cream anywhere! Yes I know, it's a bold statement but I swear by it. I've traveled all over and have tried ice cream just about everywhere and nothing tops The Blue Fox. Great family run business full of tradition. I got a chance to speak to the owner, the chef and as you will see in the television inside the store everything is made from scratch with traditional recipes. The pastry desserts were incredible as well. We tried just about everything. We were in Molyvos for 4 days and we went here every day sometimes twice a day. It was that good! You can't buy anything bad from this lovely store. Also it has a beautiful view from the balconies. I highly suggest visiting this place for dessert. George is the owners grandson, he always served us and we got a chance to know him. He is a bright young man, who speak English and is very knowledgeable in what they serve. I loved his enthusiasm in the products they sell. I told him grandmother who also works there what a great job he does and she told me she is very proud of him. Hopefully one day he takes over the family business. George if you are reading this, my apologies we never got a chance to see you to say bye on our last day there. We will see you again the next time we visit, hopefully sometime soon!

Classic desserts made well. Fillings and creams are light and smooth, and it wasn't too too sweet. A highlight experience, especially if you manage to get a table next to the view.

The pastry chef here is a magician!! The pizza dough is perfection! The pizzas are served with infused olive oils (basil, chili, etc.) created by the chef. He makes the ice cream in house. My son says it’s the best mango sorbet he’s ever had anywhere in the world. Each pastry is as beautiful as it is delicious. Don’t even get me started on the view. If you arrive at sunset, you will be treated to a little bit of heaven. The service is also super friendly. We came back three times during our one week stay.

We got an orange pie with ice cream coconut and sakiz. It was so delicious. Service was so friendly and helpful. You should definitely visit this place.

Best gelato on the planet; hands down! I have traveled the world and their gelato, which is lovingly made on site, is the very best. Coffee is superb too along with all the desserts which are also made on site. If you are in the village stop by and enjoy one of the best views of the sea while enjoying your dessert and coffee!!

The view and the place ambiance are just breathtaking (especially in the quite hours of the morning/afternoon). Sweets were delicious but really pricey, around €6 for a piece of cake/pastry & €10 waffle with the addings (I guess justifiable giving the view they got up there)! Oh did i mention the view, oh trust & believe, its just stunning 🤩☀️🌊

Not too far off the main drag and well worth the uphill climb. Surrounded by little trinket shops and with an absolute knock out view of the bay you'd be forgiven for thinking this is yet another tourist trap. The cake will prove you wrong. Moist, airy, chocolate slices that were almost Gateaux like. The mousse chocolate dome was rich and creamy. The coffee was one of the best we had in town. Your server is a delightful woman with excellent English. She even helped me find something within my dietary requirements with a little google translate help. You can come here confidently and soak in that view for a while before tackling the castle climb. And maybe call again on the way back down as there is always cold water on the table! I have included a photo of the road up and the balcony you're heading for.
