No better gelato with unique flavours changing frequently, also perfect for late night gelato cravings
Came here for the first time as I had a craving for ice cream, and so glad I did. I ordered the pistachio gelato. Absolutely delicious, I'm so glad this is close to work, I think I will be coming here a lot in the warmer weather. The shop itself is quite pretty, they have a gourmet grocery section which I will definitely explore further when I next visit.
Stumbled upon this gem on a Saturday night and despite it being packed, the line moved pretty quickly. Everyone’s entitled to only 2 flavor tastings. Got the Hazelnut and Pandan and Coconut. They were amazing! Not overly sweet and fragrant enough. Easily one of my favourite ice cream places in Melbourne!

My Rating: 4.5
Gelateria Primavera is a quant vintage looking little shop, its like you've stepped back in time to the 1960's era. Very simple set up and the store is shared with Spring Street Grocer which stock some very interesting food products and fresh produces. I often see people wander in to get coffee too.
Gelateria Primavera has been around for the longest time and I have visited quite a number of times over the years in all 4 seasons in the year and winter is no exception.
It is a bit out of the way from the CBD, so its only if you're nearby, passing through, or next door watching a show then you'd come for a visit.
🔆LOCATION🔆
This cute little shop is on Spring Street near the corner of Bourke Street. Easiest way to get there from the city is to take the tram from Bourke Street and get off at the last stop before the tram turns off Spring Street. It is only a short 1 minute walk away.
🔆SERVICE🔆
The staff behind the counter is friendly and if you're uncertain what flavour you want, you can ask to taste test and also ask for recommendations as well.
🔆MENU/PRICE🔆
Please note that Gelateria Primavera is Cash Only.
1 scoop $5.00
2 scoops $7.20
3 scoops $8.80
Option to select to have your ice cream in a cup or cone
I do not know how often they change their flavours, but as at 30th July 2019 they are as follows:
=Gelati Flavours=ChocolateSalted CaramelHoneycomb & Roasted PistachioPistachio Di BronteHazelnut IGP PiedmontePear, Vanilla & ChocolateBanana, Walnut & Dulce De LecheWhite Chocolate Orange & Sesame SeedsYoghurt & Blackberry Jam
=Sorbetti Flavours=LemonCoconut & GingerMandarin & GrapefruitRaspberry & RosewaterMango & PassionfruitDark Chocolate
🔆VERDICT🔆I decided to get 2 scoops for $7.20 in a cup.
Flavours selected:
Honeycomb & Roasted PistachioBanana, Walnut & Dulce De Leche
Both flavours were very delicious. I prefer the Honeycomb and Roasted Pistachio because it had more flavour from both wheras the banana was very light. The walnut pieces were huge which was quite nice.
We popped in for ice cream last night in the dead of winter (why not) and while I’ve always noticed this place I’d never previously visited. Now I only wish I had gone sooner! At $7.20 for two scoops it’s pretty expensive but you can certainly taste the quality and it was just so flavoursome. I had hazelnut and chocolate and while I never ever get chocolate it was probably the best tasting chocolate ice cream I’d ever tried. I also sampled the coconut and ginger gelato and the mango and passion fruit which was also utterly delicious
*CASH ONLY* Really great gelato with natural, authentic flavours. It's a tie between Primavera and Pidapipo for best in Melbourne.
Don't forget their cold pressed juices too. Coffee is always good and served with a smile. Have a browse through the connected City Grocer while you are waiting for some great ready to heat meals and other speciality products.
Right next to Princess theatre and is within the free tram zone. The surroundings is very lively day and night.
My partner and I ordered honeycomb and hazelnut gelato. It was rich and creamy, not overly sweet, just perfect. We got 2 scoops and for the price I think you pay for the quality of the food and scoops are a little abundant too. Would go back to try other flavours!
'Totally yum, slightly expensive yet value for money' is how we would like to describe this one.
Out of the Honeycomb with roasted pistachio and yuzu Yoghurt, honeycomb with roasted pistachio was our favorite. Yuzu was refreshing too.
They have very limited options for anyone and everyone including Vegans and Vegetarians but I'm sure everyone would like something.
Customer friendly.
4.5
Consistently delicious gelato after all these years. The crowd has somewhat died down here, with the influx of so many new gelateria, but Gelateria Primavera is still one of the best around.
A concise menu that with rotating flavours, I don't think I have ever had one that I didn't like. The gelato are wonderfully creamy and smooth, and the sorbets are light and refreshing. Flavours are pronounced, and it's all natural and nothing artificial.
The serving size could be a bit bigger, but then again you could give me a tub of gelato and I will still say "more please!".
Thanks for the treat Timinmelbourne!
Came here for the first time tonight. It is such a hot night and all we wanted was gelato but there are very few places open late. This place didn’t disappoint! Beautiful gelato and sorbet.
