About Dumbo Gelato

Right on the Scarborough Esplanade, Dumbo Gelato churns fresh batches of gelato artigianale built for sunset walks and coastal heat. Queues spill onto the pavement on warm evenings, but scoops move fast. Regulars make a beeline for the Aussie Salted Caramel—spiked with a savory kick of Vegemite instead of sea salt—or Gorilla Biscuits for crunch folded into banana. Take a cone, claim a beachside bench to watch the world go by, and catch the sea breeze.

  • Inventive Signature Scoops: House-churned scoops featuring unconventional signatures like banana-packed Gorilla Biscuits and Aussie salted caramel with a hint of Vegemite.
  • Fresh Daily Churns: Crafted on site every day using genuine fruit and local ingredients for pure, punchy flavor.
  • Esplanade Coastal Setting: Perched right along The Esplanade, ideal for outdoor bench seating, people-watching, and sunset beach strolls.
