After the endless rains over the past few years, it’s almost felt surreal to have a brilliantly sunny summer here on the Central Coast (not that we are complaining). We’re totally loving that it’s March and we’re still lapping up the sunshine and beach days. Is there anything better (or more refreshing) to do on a super hot day than grab a delicious gelato, in your favourite flavour? We think not. And, we know, for sure, that the kidlets will most definitely agree with us!
We’ve been out scouting and tasting (of course) the top spots to find yourself a gelato and ice cream on the Central Coast. These are the top 5 contenders that we cannot love enough.
Which one is your fave? Don’t forget to tag us when you’re out an about enjoying your scoops.
Best Ice Cream on the Central Coast

2. Mr Goaty, Coastwide
Ah how we love Mr Goaty.
Having recently turned their gelato business into a fully mobile offering you can catch them at most of the local Central Coast markets and events. You won’t miss Mr Goaty – they’re always the most popular of all the food trucks!

What’s more exciting is that you can book them (either their van or one of their super fun vintage gelato bikes) for your next private party or event. It’s no wonder they have become a massive hit on the wedding scene, winning multiple awards within the wedding industry.
Speaking of awards – their gelato also takes the crown for “Best Gelato in NSW”. Freshly-churned right here on the Central Coast from premium ingredients that make for mouth-wateringly delicious taste sensations that are well worth the lineup.
And, ssssh don’t tell anyone, but a little birdie might have shared with us that a beachside gelato bar is next on the cards for Mr Goaty. So, stay tuned Coasties!
In the mean time find out where Mr Goaty’s next event is over at their Insta.

Technically a cafe in Copa, but what makes a cafe better than when they serve up scoops? Especially, from their prime location directly across from the beach in Copa. With a sweet little selection of gelato and sorbet on offer The Bees Knees is a perfect stop when those kidlets are screaming for ice cream.
