I went there in may of 2025 for a student exchange program and I had the dark chocolate raspberry ice cream and it was life changing would recommend. read more

This place made all other ice cream/frozen custard/gelato taste less good. I can't vouch for the other flavors but I tried the Cherry Mania and my favorite ice cream became my second favorite ice cream. I just wish it was closer than 8500 miles (about 13700 km) from my house. read more

Verdict: Looking for the most affordable and widest selection of gelato? You found it. Looking for the highest quality? Head across the street to Scoops. Star 1: How was the service and atmosphere? Seven Apples combines an ideal location with fast and friendly service, and you're sure to leave with a smile. Star Granted. Star 2: How were the portions relative to the cost? As expensive as eating out in Australia can be, gelato is one of the most affordable treats around, and I'd gladly spend the $5.70 I ended up spending on three sizeable scoops of gelato as opposed to on a cake or cookie at one of the countless bakeries in St. Kilda. Additionally, $5.70 for a medium gets you a heftier bang for your buck than at Scoops across the street, and gets you roughly the same as Trampoline dishes up next door for $6.10: Seven Apples Medium: $5.70 - http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=fqepdmuA25FDtKSnm5n4zA&userid=OKX-V5j_qfuOebeHeWGrHg Scoops Medium: $6.00 - http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=4VvbqsNLKclZ2ajImkiTFg&userid=OKX-V5j_qfuOebeHeWGrHg Trampoline Medium: $6.10 - http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=QstsSKP6MfAtDlPh1H3p8w&userid=OKX-V5j_qfuOebeHeWGrHg Star Granted. Stars 3 and 4: How was the food? To be completely honest and fair, while Seven Apples is the most affordable gelato option around and offers a whopping 25 flavors (including some truly fascinating ones... Red Bull?!), the venue blurs the fine line between gelato and ice cream a bit. Possibly because they may use less sugar so that the product keeps for longer, I occasionally felt as though I was eating standard ice cream as opposed to airy, whipped up gelato akin to what is served across the street at Scoops. That having been said, it was delicious nonetheless. Single Star Granted. Star 5: Would you eat here every day if you could? I could very easily eat quality and affordable gelato every day for the rest of my life, and I'd gladly do so at Seven Apples. Star Granted. read more

7Apples - Medium Cup (French Vanilla & Cookies and Cream): $5.70 - Gelato Near Me - St Kilda, VIC

On an extremely hot day, this ice creamery can get busy, and I really mean that. I tried their hazelnut and pistachio gelato, and I was struggling to eat it quickly; yet bits of cream was starting to flow down my hands. The serving sizes are extremely generous. I am not trying to deter you from spending less money at this establishment (you will be spoilt for choice, and sticking to one flavour will prove to be quite difficult anyway) however if your normally the type of ice cream fanatic that normally buys two scoops of ice cream; do yourself a favour and just try one scoop as a result. This business does close sometime during winter, and you are pre-warned about this. It is chic, stylish and contemporary, and you are allowed to sample one or two of their flavours before purchasing. And the staff are so friendly; a real joy to come to this establishment to buy my ice cream treat instead of nearby Trampoline on Acland Street. You will want to come back for more. When (and if) you do come back for more; do yourself a favour and be adventurous: buy another completely different flavour ice cream altogether. read more

7 Apples was found by Mark Mariotti. He lived in Tuscany for a while to learn the perfect craft of gelato making. Lucky him, one of the country most famous artisans Gelateria named Eugenio in Marina Di Massa willingly taught him the skills he needed. one of the best gelato around read more

Amazing gelato + sorbet = 7 Apples Last time I dropped by 7 Apples it was a cool Wednesday night and there was still a line, in summer make sure you bring your patience with you when you head here. So this time I was in a sorbet sort kind of mood and went for the lemon and raspberry flavours. How do they get it so creamy? The raspberry rocked my world and while I loved the lemon I found it lacked a certain zing. I also sampled the Red Bull flavour but decided it defiantly belongs in a can not a cone. In the past I have enjoyed the generous servings of creamy classic gelato and they are all made from high quality ingredients. The staff are friendly and fast and will happily steer you towards a small serve ($4.70) if your not really hungry! The main problem, choosing from the great range! read more

All others are imitations: Seven Apples in St Kilda is the only destination for a cheeky gelato. 7apples have won dozens of awards over the years with their creative flavour combinations, such as 'Banana and Dulche de Leche', 'Crocangelo', and some of the great traditional favourites like Lime, Raspberry, or Mango. There's literally something for everyone, so if you aren't in the mood for a cake or five on Acland St, go to 7apples; you will never regret the decision. read more

After living in St Kilda for almost 3 years, I can say this is my favourite gelato place, by far. On a hot day it's perfect to be able to grab some icy coldness and head down to the beach to relax and enjoy. I always enjoy going in there because they have the basic gelato flavours and then a few that come and go and it's always so much fun to mix and match two flavours. If its not super hot, you can still head in there for a delicious smoothie!! If you're in St Kilda and you want something sweet, head there. The only downfall is they close in the winter (or have before) so you can't try an icy cold treat in the winter from them! read more

eeh this place is okay-ish methinks. I've always avoided it due to the inappropriate number of people waiting and cramming themselves into a store. On a hot summer's day this must be an organised nightmare. Oh wait, I have been here on such a day and it is a mix of chaos and bedlam. It's impossible to see the flavours when everyone is in the way, and its so confusing i think the old man i saw when there had been waiting since 2003 sometime. No structure, no rules, rude bossy selfish people who push past ans annoying groups taking up half the shop with their 33 differently and increasingly complicated ice cream combination-fashion designed deconstructed ice cream art works. This is not a well thought out place... and the wait is long. However! All of these problems and many more can be fixed with Gelato :) or the next best match! Reasonable range of flavours, good product, but by gosh that wait! read more

How can one visit St Kilda and not have a ice-cream here? or two? (Well, after two double scoops, I was dragged out by friends. But I will go again) My favorite flavor is Cherry Mania (And I judge all gelati places based on this flavor) Though I do to order atleast one different flavor each time along with it. read more

Picture this: A hot summers day in Melbourne. You walk up from the sun drenched St Kilda beach to get yourself a cool treat, and stumble across an oasis in the desert ( read: Gelato shop in Acland st) .You wait patiently in the crowd, and then finally step up to the counter. You sample both creamy and fruit based gelatos....Your heart starts to quicken and your mouth starts to salivate at the thought of what coming....and then you step back from the counter with your cookies and cream scoop, and your Mango Sorbet and its then you realise - you have heaven in your hands. read more

Nice range of ice cream flavours. Ice cream is smooth and flavours are nice, if occasionally a little too sweet. Great location being on busy Acland Street and so close to Luna Park and St Kilda beach. Service is a bit of a let down. They seem to have no serving or queuing system, and I'm not surprised staff often seem lack lustre or disinterested. It's chaotic when it's busy. read more

Two words: Turkish Delight. It's like someone grabbed your rose scented Grandma and blended her up in to a delicious gelato! No...wait, that sounded like a much more pleasant idea when I ran it through my head. Anyway, this is some of the best gelato going and the Turkish Delight flavour has one all sorts of awards, including my award for "Most Yum". It's creamy and has a strong rose flavour. If you're lucky you will get a chunk of real turkish delight in the middle and you will spend the next 20 minutes trying to lick it out from in-between your teeth. read more

There is always a line outside 7 Apples, even in the winter. I know that I defiantly can be accused of taking too long to choose a flavour whilst a queue forms all around me. It's hard not to stand there for five minutes salivating like a dog as you make one of the most important decisions of the day. I would like to recommend a flavour, but they are all good and hard to single out any one. The one thing that I can say is that I know a good ice cream shop by the lemon gelato, if they get that right then you know you will be coming back often. read more

Well, it didn't take me all that long to discover this little ice cream palor (actually they do gelato, which is a little different) which wasn't one of the major chains you see about the place. So, since it was a hot the day I was at St Kilda I decided to step inside and order a small tub of gelato. It was quite impressed. Despite the crowds I was served quite quickly, and the price was also very reasonable ($5.00 for a small tub with two flavors). They even have quite a decent selection, as well as fruit salad and other assortments, and all of this in a fairly small shop. They even have some tables out the front on Ackland street, though you need to be quick because they get snapped up pretty fast. read more

This is what summer in St Kilda is all about, those hot sticky days when the street is crowded with people milling outside bars and restaurants. When the craving for gelati overcomes you, be prepared to queue. Seriously, it gets hectic. As far as I'm concerned Seven Apples out performs nearby rival Trampoline every time. Whether you're looking for rich gelato in flavours such as Mars Bar and Bubblegum or refreshing sorbet in Blood Orange or Pineapple, this place is fantastic. Even betteer you can get cups of fresh berries and frozen yoghurt. read more

Bailey's or Mars Bar icecream. Cashing in on the touristy St. Kilda in a big way, pricey, but overwhelmingly justified by the quality of the product. read more

Nice simple gelato. The mint , forrero rocher, hazelnut crunch and the dark chocolate sorbet are to die for!!!

Very nice gelato indeed.I tasted a couple, salted caramel was a stand out. Settled on coconut meringue. Very creamy. Lots of nice fruit options to go with your Gelato too. read more

Best gelato in Melbourne. My personal favourites are the dark chocolate sorbet and the red bull! (when it's in stock its a must try!)

With so many ice cream shops on Acland Street and St Kilda in general, it makes it kind of hard to pick which one to go to. Having tried the all of the ones in the area, including Trampoline, Scoops, and Fritz, I can safely recommend that you go to whichever one has the shortest line. Overall, they're all pretty much the same but still good. Have you ever really had bad gelato/ice cream? Overall, as with all the other shops in the area, the service is friendly and attentive and there's a reasonable amount of flavors to choose from. read more
