Inner west Gelato Messina fiends, forget that cross-city trek for salted caramel goodness. Messina have announced plans to open their very first inner west store, set for a 2016 opening at the former Rozelle Tram Depot in Forest Lodge.

If you're thinking Messina would go near the Cow & Moon-dominated Enmore area, think again. According to Good Food, Oxford Agency's Steffan Ippolito has confirmed Messina will open at the former Rozelle Tram Depot, alongside a pasta bar from A Tavola's Eugenio Maiale and Jared Ingersoll's paddock-to-plate eatery Butcher & Farmer.

The monarchs of gelato have been characteristically busy of late. Recently they’ve been teaming up with Andy Bowdy to create soft serve sundaes, delivering tubs of gelato to your office with Uber and creating handmade chocolate boxes for your mum. But they haven’t kept quiet on the store-opening front, recently opening stores in Richmond, Coolangatta and indicating a Rosebery opening.

Gelato Messina will open at the former Rozelle Tram Depot in 2016.
