Review Summary

Review roundups depict Café Gelato as a popular Little Italy spot known for rich creamy gelato, flavorful coffee, and well presented breakfast, with many praising the quality and authenticity of the gelato and the inviting, clean space and cozy seating, sometimes with a sunlit patio; the staff are frequently described as friendly and accommodating, contributing to a welcoming atmosphere, though some complaints surface about inconsistent service during busy times and occasional hours that do not match posted schedules; while the gelato is repeatedly highlighted as high quality and the options generous, a few comments call pricing steep and some flavors limited or not as varied as hoped, and a small number express doubt about authenticity or value; overall Café Gelato is viewed as a dependable, family friendly hub with a strong community vibe and a range of Italian treats that keep regulars returning for dessert, coffee, and a casual hangout.

The location & the atmosphere its perfect for a Gelato, the pistachio one was my favorite, It's a delicious & unique flavor I fell in love with that flavor. I also tried the raspberry one & it's delicious as well. I definitely want to return to try the other flavors. The prices are fair & the service is very friendly.

Best gelato in montreal! The pistachio is a must-try but all their flavours are stunning. Perfectly located right at the entrance of little Italy so you can stop by for dessert or a coffee after your meal. The employees were super kind too!! 10/10

Gelato is that hidden gem you stumble upon & quickly becomes your favorite spot. It exudes a unique, laid-back European vibe while selling fun & unexpected treats like Matheson's mac & cheese. You might start with coffee & gelato, but you'll definitely return for the ricotta pancakes & the infectious festive ambiance during soccer games or Italian Week. The sweet Italian nonni who frequent the place add to its charm. They make it feel like home. Also, the mortadella pistachio sandwich is my favorite in the neighborhood. Oh, they also serve amazing cocktails! 🍹☀️

One of my favorite spots in Montreal's Little Italy! The staff is always super friendly & welcoming. Although they can get really busy at night, the service is always great. Other than ice cream, they make really good drinks & breakfast! It's definitely a spot you don't want to miss especially when there's an event (always a good vibe at Gelato's!!)

we went twice & they were out of quite a few options that my gf wanted to order. the the slush was very watery at first & we asked the worker to remake it. she seemed a bit annoyed but then brought it to our table which was nice of her (maybe she was having a bad day so it's okay). we wouldn't recommend the strawberry matcha latte, it tastes very watered down. the decor is cute, & the affogato was decent (you can't really go wrong with ice cream in espresso honestly).

Un cup bambino à 6$ ? Je trouve cela exagéré, ils nous prennent pour des imbéciles & j'ai trouvé la gelato à la pistache, très très ordinaire! Rien à voir avec celles de l'Italie...nous sommes dans la petite Italie c'est vrai!
