About Gelato Messina Highgate

That line snaking down Beaufort Street on balmy nights moves fast and delivers: dense gelato anchored by an expansive core cabinet and experimental weekly drops. Staff offer generous tastes right off the spatola before you commit, with regulars pointing straight to the pistachio praline and tart passionfruit-mango sorbet. For guests navigating allergies, the crew cheerfully pulls untouched tubs from the back cold room to prevent cross-contamination. Generous scoops at honest prices, best eaten immediately out on the sidewalk benches.

  • Inventive Weekly Specials: A deep core cabinet rotates alongside creative weekly drops loaded with house-baked inclusions.
  • Dedicated Allergen Protocols: Staff pull untouched tubs and fresh scoops from the back storage to safely accommodate allergies and coeliac dining.
  • Generous Sampling & Value: Hefty scoops come with unrestricted counter sampling and accessible price points under ten dollars.

  • Vibrant Late-Night Outdoor Atmosphere

    With outdoor seating under balmy evening skies, Messina serves as a bustling, energetic late-night hub where locals gather well past dinner.

  • Crowd-Pleasing Group Variety

    A massive roster spanning traditional staples, vegan sorbets, and indulgent specials guarantees everyone in a group finds their perfect scoop.

    There was such a large array of flavours making it the perfect place for groups of all sizes as there truly is something for everyone.
