3. Cecconie and Sons
Ceccoine and Sons knows how to make you feel like you’re in an old school Italian gelateria. Sit on the old wooden benches, listen to some jazz, and pick a flavour from the handwritten board of evolving, fresh flavours. Stores located in Redfern and Glebe.

6. Cow & The Moon
This Enmore gelato bar was crowned the world’s best gelateria in 2014, beating out it’s Italian competition.
