About
With over 130 different flavors of gelati and sorbets made in house, there is no wondering why Mooz Gelato is famous world wide. Customers can come into Vanilla without any feelings of guilt that one would normally feel purchasing regular ice cream. Our sorbets are dairy and fat free, while our gelati have a low fat and low sugar content. Gelato is a healthier version of ice cream that originated from Italy, it is milk based rather than cream based. Don't worry though! That smooth, creamy texture definitely remains. Not only do we offer our customers a beautiful display of sorbet and gelati, we also provide food and drinks in our cafe. There is a wonderful selection of light meals and salads on the 'All Day Menu' We also make delicious juices and smoothies made from fresh produce and ingredients. Furthermore, our coffee is of a high standard and ground fresh per customer. The team at Mooz are committed to ensuring that your experience with us is enjoyable and leaves a lasting impression, Please rate according to the service, quality of product and atmosphere - we love to hear feedback!

We perform checks on reviews.
Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We were in Cairns for two days as part of a cruise tour. We were exploring the area, which is amazing, and found this Gelato shop. WOW! We went back our second night because it was so good. The staff encourages you to taste as many flavors as you want and it's really fun. The first night I had coconut and mango. The mango tastes like fresh mangos and the coconut was very good without being overpowering. The second night I got passion fruit and pina colada. All of it excellent!! The Gelato is all made there and the staff is super friendly. Please treat yourself and visit Mooz.

We were walking a long the and esplanade and came across this little cafe at the weekend. What a little find. They had a chef outside cooking on a BBQ bacon and egg baps, we had to try ... the smell. I got a bacon egg and avo bap and yum! they also had a great selection of gelato and cakes. The staff were all very nice and helpful. The manager, i think his name was Anton came out and was very attentive with all the customers, nice little touch. We sat on the bean bags and just took in the view. Would highly recommend.

I was so happy I found this place! The location of the store is in prime location, at the Marina and overlooking the water.
There was a very large selection of icecreams and sorbets to choose from. The lemon sorbet was super refreshing and zingy!
The stores not very big and due to covid it took a while actually getting into the shop.
They also made coffees and had little cakes to choose from.

Poor customer service. Ordered coffee, tea and croissants for breakfast - drinks came quickly but waited over 25 mins for 2 plain croissants, kept being told “they are coming” - eventually because of time we had to leave without as our order had somehow been screwed up. Waitress / manager fairly unapologetic, blamed the kitchen - wondered why I was mildly upset. Ive cream may be ok but don’t bother if you a stopping in for a small light breakfast or snack.

Their menu suggested they made both juices & smoothies. We ordered by indicating from their menu two smoothies, verifying they were smoothies & not juices, & by asking how they made them & what the result would look like in texture. They were not busy, but after a very long wait, they presented us with two juices. We indicated that they were juices not smoothies and they begged to differ. As juices, they tasted horrible……. Hence, they have no idea what they are making!

Fantastic little place with the best view in Cairns. Just opposite the helipad was a small extremely friendly cafe with great sunset drinks and delicious breakfasts. Our waiter was warm and friendly and we enjoyed our conversations with this visiting French student and frequently returned as he clearly enjoyed his job working at this special place. Definitely worth the short walk to the point!

Just strolled past on our first afternoon in Cairns exploring The Pier and The Esplanade waterfront. Came across this small cafe selling coffee, treats such as lemon tart with ice cream, beer (Peroni) by the bottle and a decadent range of ice creams and sorbets. On our first visit, I had the lemon tart and ice cream and coffee. Excellent food in a peaceful, non rushed location. Whilst it's adjacent to the helipad, it's surprising how little backdraft is caused by the helicopters ie none at all.
If you're an aviation fan, this is a good spot to have a coffee or snack and watch the scenic flight helicopters take off and land with passengers embarking/disembarking. Free entertainment!
On our second visit in the afternoon I had the lemon sorbet and mandarin sorbet. The lemon was cold and tart as expected; the mandarin was an eye-opener, so few chefs manage to enhance/empower the very delicate mandarin flavour into something robust and get the colouring right too!

In the rather upmarket wharf area it's good to find a more casual cafe without exorbitant prices. Tables and chairs, as well as bean bags, provide seating. We found their coffee and banana bread both very nice. Recommended for a casual snack or refreshment.

Great view on tip of marina. But the food and coffee left something to be desired. The coffee was bitter and the eggs benny looked good but was a bit tepid. Overall, disappointing breakfast given the venue.

I’ve been in cairns for a nine day holiday and have been struggling to find a decent coffee. Tried Mooz on the morning of my last day and wish it had been my first. Coffee was spot on. Gelato looked great too though I didn’t try it.
