There are several ice-cream shops in Haifa, but none of them comes even close. Leggenda is the most expensive place, but well worth the money. Both ice-cream and yogurt are great, and they aren't greedy - the portions are huge and can be shared. Wide choice of tastes and fruits to pick from, if you go for the ice-cream, don't... More

They call it an Italian ice-cream shop, but they out do any ice-cream I’ve eaten in Italy or any other place. They have a very large variety of flavours and types (Cream, Sorbet, sugar-free). A must if you are around regardless of the season/weather.

Always fresh fruit and many other yummy nuts with the best frozen yogurt ever! One side is for a very good ice-cream but go for the frozen yogurt, comes in 3 sizes and it is low fat! Go once and you will come for more :-)

This ice cream shop is right on the main strip of the Carmel Haifa downtown area. They offer both ice cream and yogurt in two separate but adjacent stores. The prices are a bit higher than the rest of Israel for similar frozen treats, but it tastes very good that it is probably worth it.

We ate at "Leggenda" throughout Israel. Haifa, Jerusalem, Tel-Aviv... OMG they are delicious. Nothing in Southern California even comes close to tasting as delicious as Leggenda's Gelato's. Value is excellent and they serve decent size portions. I just wish they would open some up at home (California).

Both - the ice cream & frozen yogurt are good. A bit expensive - but there's a large variety of tastes. The ice cream is freshly made there.

I think one of the best places to have icecream in Haifa. A lot of tastes to choose from. Take home available.

one of the places of worship in Haifa. a large selection of ice cream, Belgian waffles. but the leader of the cafe is a frozen yogurt. it is eaten with a variety of additions - from fruits and chocolate, to jams and candies. I advise everyone, adults and children.

One of the best I've tasted. The resons for not giving it an excellent score is teh decor and the fact that when we went there Friday evening they didn't replace the empty trays with full ones so some of the flavors were missing.
