Extra Bar - A Slice of Italian Delight in Sciacca

Located at Corso Accursio Miraglia, 46, in the charming town of Sciacca, Extra Bar is not just another café; it's a warm embrace of local flavors and genuine hospitality that draws both locals and travelers alike. From the moment you step inside, the inviting aroma of freshly baked goods and the friendly smiles of the staff make you feel right at home.

Extra Bar truly shines when it comes to their selection of sweet treats and baked goods. Renowned for having "the BEST Cannoli in Sciacca," as noted by resident enthusiast Guido Derlly, this café is a must-visit for anyone with a sweet tooth. Each cannolo is filled to perfection, making each bite a delightful burst of flavor that highlights the creamy ricotta filling and crispy shell. If you're in the mood for something extra special, be sure to try their "pistachio gelato brioche," praised by satisfied visitors like Jen, who raved about it being one of the best desserts she has ever had.

The menu extends beyond cannoli, featuring an impressive array of gelato—many locals consider it the best in town. Vitor Alcobia, a frequent visitor, describes the gelato selection as "amazing," with flavors that beautifully represent both traditional Italian and innovative twists. Pair it with one of their delightful cakes, and you're in for an indulgent experience that embodies the essence of Italian dessert culture.

The atmosphere at Extra Bar is both modern and welcoming, making it an ideal spot to unwind with friends or enjoy a peaceful moment alone. With plenty of seating available, it’s no surprise to find it bustling with customers, all drawn by the irresistible charm and quality of the offerings. As Giacomo Fratus mentions, the service is attentive and courteous, ensuring that your experience is as enjoyable as the treats themselves.

While most offerings receive rave reviews, a few experiences—like that shared by ALE SER—remind us that perfection is an ongoing pursuit. However, the overwhelming sentiment leans towards a genuine appreciation for the care put into their offerings, as well as the supportive atmosphere fostered by the family who runs the bar.

Whether you're a local or just passing through Sciacca, Extra Bar promises a delightful detour into the heart of Italian patisserie. From the beautifully designed space to the deliciously crafted treats, it’s a place where culinary passions take flight, leaving you with memories that linger long after your visit.
