Review Summary

Café Gitana is widely regarded as a unique destination in Montreal that combines the atmosphere of a traditional cafe with the sophistication of a cigar and hookah lounge. Visitors frequently praise the cozy, warm, and immersive environment, which is often enhanced by live music and an oriental inspired aesthetic that makes guests feel at home. While many reviewers highlight the high quality of the drinks, cigars, and overall hospitality provided by the friendly staff, some patrons have expressed frustration regarding billing transparency and perceived overcharging for certain beverage items.

Cozy cigar bar with shisha. Excellent service, I had a very nice waitress. The Turkish tea (with mint) was great, tasted authentic & the tea cup is definitely authentically Turkish. The shisha lasted a while & had a nice pull.

Day or night, this place has an air of allure & escape.

Lots of different comfy spaces to settle into.

The live music heightened the atmosphere & made the night feel special. (jazz manouche feat. a bewitching violinist & keyboardist)

People smoking their cigars against the backdrop of the café's intimately lit, middle eastern decor transports you to a different universe.

I've come to this place often & have always had a nice experience. Great atmosphere, authentic live music & tasty food & drink. I don't smoke cigars, so I can't review them on that. Otherwise awesome place with an exotic flair!

Cafe Gitana has become one of my favourite places in Montreal. The environment is so relaxing & it really helps you get out of the everyday routine.

You have a wide selection of cigars & delicious teas & cocktails. They also offer hookahs.

They often have live music & every time it has been super great. It really adds to the concept & the ambiance of the place. Specially while enjoying a cocktail & a cigar. It's really a vibe.

The waiters are super nice & helpful. They took the time to explain the menu to us & give us good recommendations.

The only thing I would change about the place is that sometimes I would like to have a small food menu too to come with the tea. I could see myself enjoying some cookies or a small muffin. Also I would maybe add some new teas to the menu. Maybe special items you could taste only in some months of the year idk.

This place is awesome, you must visit it if you come to Montreal.

Excellent place to go to have a cigar, a drink & relax.
You can also have'börek' (a turkish snak), baklava, & lokum.
If you would like to smoke a cigar, this is one of the very few places in Montreal.
