Gelato and sorbets are what we are all about, we have never lost focus on that. However we do offer a range of other artisan desserts which we make fresh in store.
From freshly made to order hot crêpes, waffles and hot chocolates in winter, to refreshing Sicilian fresh fruit granitas, frappes in summer. We also offer coffee and affogatos made using our amazing gelato.
Our indoor seating means Rivareno is a great place to meet with friends, and catch up on the latest news. Or – grab a take away gelato tub, gelato cake, or hand made gelato sticks pack to take to your next dinner party – or just to enjoy in the comfort of your own home! There is something for everyone…
Our gelato menu has five specials which change each week ensuring there is always something different to try!
Rivareno hand crafted gelato sticks are very popular. Whilst we always recommend that nothing beats the super-fresh gelato in our counter, if you need something for the go, to bring to a dinner party, or just outright love the chocolate coating, these will impress. All are hand made in our ‘laboratorio’ with our fresh gelato, and dipped in Belgian dark 72% chocolate.
All our artisan italian gelato and sorbets are made fresh every day in our “laboratorio” located in our store. Each flavour is made in very small batches, making just enough gelato for that day. We specifically chose to use very small volume gelato machines, which produce a maximum of 5 kilos at a time. When a flavour runs out, we simply make it again! All in the name of freshness.
Our fresh fruit sorbets do not contain any fat, and are all dairy free, gluten free and vegan.
We do online orders through Uber Eats, Foodora and Deliveroo
At Rivareno Gelato, our fresh fruit sorbets are made using around 55% real fruit – no fruit pastes, purees or syrups and no artificial flavourings, colourings, preservatives or hydrogenated fats commonly used by gelato makers. Our sorbets are never icy, instead always silky smooth and full of flavour. The amazing texture and flavour is achieved by the high proportion of fruit that we use, making our sorbets taste like you are eating a freshly picked piece of fruit.
In addition to very high proportions of fruit, the other main ingredients are water, a little sugar, natural fibre, marine algae and carob flour. These last 3 ingredients, whilst used in very small amounts, are completely natural and help to maintain the incredible texture of our sorbets. Our fresh fruit sorbets do not contain any fat, and are all dairy free, gluten free and vegan.
Our daily made granita is prepared with real fruit, water and cane sugar only. We do not use syrups, colorants or other artificial flavours. In summer, Rivareno offers a wide range of refreshing granitas, characterised by their fine and smooth texture.
At Rivareno Gelato we make the crêpes batter using high quality ingredients – fresh eggs, milk, flour and butter. We cook the crêpes right in front of you – we do not use pre-prepared crêpes which simply need to be warmed up. Choose to have your crêpes with our gianduia sauce (a chocolate-hazelnut sauce similar to Nutella), or with organic Canadian maple syrup, and our freshly made gelato or freshly whipped cream.
The perfume of freshly made crêpes…
We offer very high quality Belgian waffles made with only natural ingredients- eggs, real butter, milk and authentic pearl sugar sourced from Belgium. Choose to have your waffles with our gianduia sauce (a chocolate-hazelnut sauce similar to Nutella), or with organic Canadian maple syrup, and our freshly made gelato or freshly whipped cream.
The perfume of freshly made waffles…
Rivareno gelato cakes are truly special. All of them are hand made in our ‘laboratorio’ with our fresh gelato. Our gelato cakes, are natural – no artificial flavourings or colourings. We think that is really important. So our gelato cakes seem more ‘artisan’ and natural in appearance rather than bright colours. We also use exactly the same gelato that we serve over the counter, not a watered down, diluted gelato made just for gelato cakes. As you know, we never compromise when it comes to quality. In our display freezer we have a vast array of different cakes and gelato sticks available.

Absolutely incredible! Couldn’t love Rivareno Gelato more 😀
Omg. DELICIOUS! My Salted Caramel and Black Sesame cone was gone in SECONDS! I’ll definitely be going back for more!
I think I was served by the twin brother of Charlie Sheen and Mark Wahlberg. Ice cream is amazing too.
Swap ur diabetic meds for the sweetest treat on the street – st vinnies hospital staff recommend this as an endorphin raising feat! 🙂
This place is AMAZING! Id highly recommend the best selling ice cream! I cannot recall its full name so I’ll avoid using it but it’s a beautiful hazelnut ice cream which I always go out of my way to purchase when I’m in sydney
I’m hooked and can’t wait to have more! The best gelato in Sydney. Tried the Bacio – was delish! Will definitely try their dark chocolate next time.
Best gelato in town. I regularly go to both locations, Barangaroo and Darlinghurst and their gelato has become an after dinner staple. Creamy and flavourful, the pistachio, yoghurt, and cocco are to die for.
This gelato shop is very nice for service because the clerk told us his recommend matching to our feeling.
Always the best Ice cream in all Sydney but y need to go before night.. coz they run out almost of everything. Always busy! Best Italian ice cream
Il gelato è molto buono, diversi gusti molto originali, il personale è professionale e gentile. Il cioccolato extra bitter e ricotta & fichi, sono buonissimi. Molto buono è anche il gelato al caffè.
