Bagaméri Fagylaltozó

Bagaméri Fagylaltozó stands on Kisfaludy utca, the prettiest street in Balatonfüred, among the Reform-era villas. The terrace looks onto the Vaszary Villa and the Kisfaludy Gallery, and the promenade and the lake are less than a hundred metres away. It has been scooping ice cream here since 1996 and is now one of the most awarded ice cream parlours at Lake Balaton.

Sándor Márton’s ice cream

Behind the counter, master confectioner Sándor Márton creates the flavours, and he is not afraid of bold pairings. Next to the classics, the display may hold cottage cheese and dill pie, raspberry brittle cake or sea buckthorn ice cream: desserts and Balaton fruit, put into a scoop. The awards come in a long line: he has won Balaton’s Ice Cream twice, with the baked apple and Linzer Annabáli Csemege and then with Lavender Apricot. In 2025 his Dörgicse almond was named Ice Cream of the Year, and the same year he received the Artisan Ice Cream Award of Excellence. In 2026 he again reached the Balaton’s Ice Cream final with two flavours, Balatoni botanika and Füredi borvirág.

The landscape is always behind the flavours: Dörgicse almonds, apricots, lavender, sea buckthorn. That is what makes Bagaméri ice cream taste of Balaton, not just another ice cream shop. Taste your way along the counter and you take a small food tour of the Balaton Uplands.

Ice cream and coffee among the villas

Their Facebook page shows that the ice cream here does not only come in a cone: it is served in a cup with caramel sauce, crisp wafers or fruit topping, with a proper espresso alongside. There are lactose-free and sugar-free options too, so everyone in the group finds something.

The place

A small ice cream parlour with an indoor space and a terrace, with step-free access. From the terrace you see the life of the Reform-era quarter; on summer afternoons walkers, cyclists and families all stop here for a scoop. At peak times there may be a queue, but it moves quickly.

Opening hours

A seasonal place, open from spring to autumn. According to the owner they stay open until the end of October, because autumn visitors want ice cream too. Check current hours on their Facebook page.

What do guests say?

Guests highlight the unusual, dessert-like flavours, the creamy texture and the lovely terrace. Balaton ice cream lists regularly place it among the very best.

Who is it for?

Anyone in Füred who wants a scoop more exciting than classic vanilla. Families for a stop by the promenade, food lovers collecting award-winning flavours, and anyone who would like a good coffee with their ice cream. In winter you will need to look elsewhere for dessert in Füred.

How much does it cost?

Good value: one or two scoops or a coffee cost a few hundred to a couple of thousand forints.
