C9 Chocolate & Gelato Docklands

C9 Chocolate & Gelato sits on Waterfront Way in Melbourne's Docklands, the modern waterfront precinct on the western edge of the CBD. A dedicated chocolate and gelato spot, it's earned a strong reputation for its quality chocolate creations and gelato — the kind of indulgent, craft-focused dessert spot that's become a genuine favourite for a sweet treat by the water.

The appeal is that combination of quality chocolate and beautifully made gelato in a great range of flavours and a lovely waterfront Docklands setting, perfect for a treat after a meal, a sweet indulgence or something special while exploring the precinct. A dessert spot that's nailed both its chocolate and its gelato is a real find, and the strong feedback speaks to C9 getting it just right.

With a 4.8 rating from nearly 300 reviews, it's clearly delighting its visitors. Flavours, the chocolate range, opening hours and pricing vary, and it gets busy on warm evenings and weekends, so it's worth checking current details before a special trip — though for a quality chocolate or gelato treat, it's often just a matter of dropping in at the Docklands waterfront.
