Donat is more than just a gelateria – it’s a beloved Zadar institution. Generations have grown up with it, and countless tourists, artists, athletes, writers, and curious food lovers have made it a must-stop during their visit. What they all share is a love for top-quality, unforgettable ice cream.
Every scoop at Donat is made fresh, with real ingredients – no preservatives, no artificial flavors. These are not “cherry-flavored” ice creams – they are made from real Zadar cherries. From hazelnut and lemon to chocolate, yogurt, and the legendary Donatela or Peach Cup, each flavor is a celebration of purity and craftsmanship.
At Donat, ice cream isn’t just a treat – it’s an experience. Whether enjoyed in a cone while wandering Zadar’s ancient streets, or savored slowly in the shade of the shop, the moment becomes more than just dessert. It becomes memory.
Donat isn’t just a symbol of Zadar. It’s a symbol of joy. And once you’ve tasted it – you’ll understand why people keep coming back.
