While there are many non-GF ice cream flavours at Messina, there are also many GF ones! The staff at this store are very accomodating and if you mention that you are coeliac, they will scoop your ice cream from a new tub that’s in the freezer out the back - helping to eliminate any cross contamination from their other gluten flavours.

Great gelato. They have a menu with GF options listed. They are happy to go out the back and take the gelato from there with a fresh scoop.

Asked about gluten free flavours and were provided with a list of allergens for each individual flavour and were informed that of course like any other non gf dedicated venue that they couldn’t provide us with a guarantee of no cross contamination. However, the worker went out of her way to go out the back to open a fresh tub of the flavour and served the gf flavour prior to the rest of the family’s order.
