Café Gelato

The gelato was very good & the products generally seem high quality. However, I was disappointed by a few things during my visit.

First, the'iced latte' did not seem to be prepared like a real traditional iced latte with an espresso shot & milk. I asked the server, & she assured me it was made with espresso. However, as someone knowledgeable about coffee, it really seemed more like a pre-made cold brew mixture. The coffee was poured from a pre-prepared container without any espresso extraction being made on the spot, which was disappointing when expecting a real latte.

Also, the cookie dessert tasted expired or not fresh. We had to ask for it to be replaced with a cake instead. Thankfully, the staff agreed to change it, but it was still disappointing regarding the freshness of the desserts.

It's unfortunate because the place has potential & the gelato itself was excellent.

Excellent service high quality gelato

Café Gelato is truly one of the hidden gems of Montreal. From the moment you walk in, you're welcomed by a warm & inviting atmosphere, beautiful décor, & a team that genuinely cares about the experience of their guests. The space has a great vibe whether you're stopping in for a quick coffee, enjoying a relaxed brunch, or meeting friends.

The menu is thoughtfully curated & everything feels fresh & high quality. The brunch options are excellent, the paninis are delicious, & the desserts are incredible. Their homemade gelato is definitely a highlight & a must-try if you visit. You can really tell that a lot of attention is put into the ingredients & the preparation.

What makes this place special is the overall experience great food, great coffee, friendly service, & a welcoming neighborhood feel. It's the kind of spot you want to come back to again & again. Highly recommended if you're in Montreal.

Delicious spot for gelato & Italian desserts in Montreal! Café Gelato offers a great selection of creamy, flavourful gelato along with other classic Italian treats. The interior has a cozy seating area, & there's also a patio outside, perfect for enjoying your dessert on a sunny day. A lovely place to take a break & treat yourself!

Absolutely love Café Gelato Saint Laurent!

This gem stands out not only for its immaculate cleanliness everything is always spotless & inviting but also for its incredible variety of authentic gelato. You can taste the quality & care in every scoop. From classics to creative flavors, there's something for everyone.

What truly sets Café Gelato apart in the neighborhood is their community spirit. They're the only ones around consistently giving back hosting small, thoughtful events throughout the year, especially during Grand Prix weekend & La Semaine Italienne de Montréal. Animals Welcome!

It's more than just a café it's a local hub. With free bathroom access (a rarity on St-Laurent), great coffee, delicious brunch options, & house-made desserts, it's clear they care about every guest's experience.

A must-visit in Little Italy. Authentic, clean, generous, & full of heart.
