Villeray-Saint-Michel, Little-Italy

Ice Cream

Mentioned in: The Best Ice Cream in Montreal

Review Summary

Havre aux Glaces draws mixed notes from reviewers, with a long queue and prices that feel high for scoops, though flavors come across as rich and ingredient-forward, featuring visible pistachio and a strong matcha while some cones taste a bit burnt and portions feel small for the cost. Many praise the sorbets and the best sorbet flavors, with seasonal rotations that keep trying something new on each visit. The shop offers a wide range of dairy-free options, which is appreciated by lactose intolerant guests. Some descriptions frame the product as artisanal ice cream rather than gelato, with flavor profiles that taste very real and include pistachio, hazelnut, and caramel or maple variations. There is no seating inside, but the market setting provides nearby picnic tables, even in winter. A pink grapefruit sorbet in a half-liter portion is highlighted, and overall flavors are consistently delicious, even if some find the price and portion size a touch high.View restaurant profile
