Gelato Messina Fitzroy

Gelato Messina sits on Smith Street in Fitzroy, one of Melbourne's most vibrant inner-north strips, famous for its mix of bars, restaurants, shops and nightlife. Part of one of the country's most celebrated gelato brands, it brings Messina's renowned, inventive gelato to a buzzing, popular location.

The appeal is straightforward but irresistible: outstanding gelato from a name that's become synonymous with the best in the business, in a great spot perfect for a treat while exploring Smith Street's lively scene. Whether you're after a classic flavour or one of Messina's famous creative specials, it's a reliably brilliant stop in the heart of the inner north.

With a 4.6 rating from more than 2,100 reviews, it's clearly living up to the brand's stellar reputation. Flavours rotate — the specials change often — and opening hours and pricing vary, and a popular Messina spot gets busy on warm evenings and weekends, so it's worth checking current details before a special trip, though for a casual scoop you can usually just drop in and see what's on offer that day.
