Crèmerie SWIRL is described as a creamy coconut milk based soft serve with a rotating weekly lineup that keeps flavors fresh, from fruity options to more adventurous picks like hojicha and black sesame; vegan and dairy free options are frequently highlighted as a major plus. The limited walk up window menu contributes to fast service, though several reviews note the small menu and higher price point. Many visitors praise the friendliness of the staff and the welcoming vibe, while others note that while the flavors are often innovative and tasty, some batches or combinations may not meet every expectation. The spot is repeatedly praised for being accessible to lactose intolerant eaters and for offering non dairy delights that feel indulgent yet light, making it a standout in Montreal's ice cream scene with weekly changes that invite repeat visits and a sense of discovery.View restaurant profile

(21)

Juice Bar & Smoothies Healthy Bubble Tea Sandwiches Vegetarian

Review Summary

Overall, Jugo Juice is described as having friendly, efficient staff and a broad menu that includes juices, smoothies, bubble tea and light fare like a chicken wrap with avocado, lettuce and tomato. The dragon fruit coconut bubble tea and the classic smoothie are popular, while one bubble tea option was too sweet and less enjoyable after continuing to sip, and a Sparkly Ice Starburst edition is noted among the drinks. A French note mentions a sparkling juice that was not fizzy and disappointing, reflecting mixed beverage experiences. Prices are reported to be higher than before, but the Eaton Center location is seen as a place to revisit to try different flavors, indicating an overall positive view of healthy food and good service with some varying satisfaction.View restaurant profile
