Why it's worth checking out
Anita Gelato sits on the Corso in Manly, the bustling pedestrian strip linking the beach to the ferry wharf in one of Sydney's most popular seaside suburbs. Part of a celebrated international gelato brand, it brings its renowned, beautifully made gelato to a prime beachside location — a perfectly placed treat in the heart of Manly.
The appeal is that combination of outstanding, inventive gelato from a name with a serious reputation and an unbeatable Manly location, ideal for a treat while strolling the Corso or after a day at the beach. With the beach, the ferry and the buzz of Manly all around, it slots naturally into a relaxed seaside day out.
With a 4.6 rating from more than 1,200 reviews, it's clearly a hit with locals and visitors alike. Flavours rotate, and opening hours and pricing vary, and a popular gelato spot gets busy on warm days, weekends and over summer, 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 while enjoying the Manly atmosphere.
