Review Summary

Café Gitana is described as a cozy, exotic spot with Turkish decor and live music that elevates the experience for cigars, shisha, and tea. The atmosphere is welcoming and relaxing, with a vibe that invites lingering conversations and evenings of entertainment. Service is often friendly and attentive, though some visits note slower or inconsistent staffing. Shisha is a major draw for many, offering a long-lasting pull, but several reviews cite issues such as shisha with little tobacco or limited flavor options due to policy. Turkish tea and mint tea, along with snacks like börek and baklava, are frequently highlighted as authentic and enjoyable. Pricing transparency can be inconsistent, with complaints about unclear charges for tea or mint and occasionally drinks that feel flat. Ventilation is mentioned as an area for improvement, with lingering smoke on occasion. Overall, Café Gitana stands out as a distinctive destination for a cigar, shisha, tea, and live entertainment, though some reviews call for greater consistency and variety.

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.

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.
