Il Melograno

great gelato and good italian food. one of the better options in northcote.

Excellent knowledgable service as last visit but this time we came on a Sunday. Very crowded, be prepare to wait for seatings and a number of serving errors. Food came as per requested but be vigilant on those served without being ordered as they belong to other tables. This happened a number of times during our visit this time. Not a place to hang out during busy hours as there are people waiting for seats. Ice creams are always popular with good choices of gelato, sorbets, vegan and gluten free options in unique flavours. Any choices with bread can be made in gluten free bread but not for pasta. Still haven't got around to try the coffee yet.

What a difference to the normally tight spaced cafe! This one is spacious, a lot of breathing space which is a big plus. Nicely laid out, warm when it was cold outside, lovely service. Ice coffee and ice chocolate were refreshing and not too rich. Food were good, well priced, not over the top. Ice cream flavours are unique, but we have yet to try.

Service is excellent!
Water for the dog and a great explaination about the coffee experience.
Coffee was served nicely but was a touch bitter for my liking.
Hot as requested and invited to tell them if it was not to our liking - perfect customer service!!!
Coffee was too bitter for me but the service will take me back to try again!
