It's been said that Melburnians from the outer west and east would travel over half an hour to Messina for a scoop or three of their ridiculously good gelato.

Watch gelato makers churn freshly made gelato in the back production factory through windows out front whilst selecting your scoop.

Sample flavours before committing. Messina's staff are totally cool with that, but try to make it quick because customers beside you may give you the eye.
A huge variety of sorbets and tempting specials are always on offer.

With creative names like Iron Born, Bananageddon, Honeycomb on over baby, Carms-a-sutra and Aprikosh, you might want to get a few take-home packs to go.
In winter, be prepared to line up - and in summer, be prepared to line up a little more.

Please be patient as venues pivot to new rules and regulations as instructed by the Government.
