Customer Review Summary
Homemade ice cream is the clear draw, with reviewers repeatedly calling it creamy, intensely flavorful, and the best they've had in Mettmann, noting flavors change regularly and pistachio gets a specific mention. Close behind, the breakfast earns praise, though one reviewer says it has room for improvement. A wedding cake ordered from the shop is described as beautifully decorated and well received by the whole party, and crepes and hot drinks also get a nod. Service comes through as consistently friendly and welcoming, with the staff and family ownership singled out for warmth. A few practical gripes recur: the tables sit close together with poor acoustics when pedestrian-zone music plays, there's no separate seating area, and one reviewer flags that card payment isn't accepted. Otherwise, the setting by the pedestrian zone with an outdoor view draws repeated approval.

“I think LaPerla is the best ice cream parlor in Mettmann. The staff is always friendly. The breakfast is great, and the ice cream is too, of course. With the flavors changing regularly, it never gets boring.”
- Valon
“I stumbled upon this place quite by chance today and, to be honest, I didn't expect to find such exceptionally good ice cream. It was by far the best ice cream I've ever had. You can immediately tell that they use high-quality ingredients and a lot of passion. The ice cream is incredibly creamy, intensely flavorful, and not at all artificial. Every flavor tastes exactly as it should… simply perfect. On top of that, the service is incredibly warm and friendly. You immediately feel welcome and can tell that the owners truly care about their customers. Whenever I'm back in Mettmann, a visit to La Perla ice cream parlor is a must. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves real, high-quality ice cream. Thank you for this wonderful taste experience!”

“The ice cream is incredibly delicious, but there's room for improvement with the breakfast.”
- Andre Fellow
“The ice cream is great, the ambiance is okay, and the service is attentive and tries hard to please everyone on a hot day. The acoustics are poor, especially when there's music playing in the pedestrian zone. There's no separate seating area, and the tables are very close together. The cone was good, but the ice cream is better.”
