Review Summary

Reviews describe Café In Gamba as a charming, cozy spot with a standout caramel latte and an exceptional matcha, offering a welcoming vibe for hanging out, reading or working, and a pretty backyard terrace that feels like a retreat in Mile End. The coffee is repeatedly praised as among the best in town, with fast, friendly service and attentive staff, though a few notes mention rude interactions, pastries that seem yesterday's, or prices that can feel steep. The space is loved for its cafe art, niche products, and options like a grilled cheese, plus reliable choices for tea and treats. Opinions on wifi range from solid for work to weak due to data issues, with some concerns about data collection. Overall Café In Gamba comes across as a beloved neighborhood favorite for coffee lovers and socializing, with a few caveats about consistency and amenities.

This place is the best, I've been coming here for years & I always have an amazing cup of coffee & great chats with the baristas who are so friendly & welcoming but never overbearing. Some of the best coffee in the mile end!

My absolute favourite coffee place in Montreal. The coffee is just the best, & it's always the best...& I've gone a lot, never just an okay coffee always the best coffee. They place itself if cute, with some fun places to stay there to enjoy. The service is always fast & super friendly. Gives me the local friendly neighborhood feels.

Great coffee/great environment. I love In Gamba!

However, I buy beans here pretty regularly, & I find the staff are grinding them too fine for v60. This is just my experience though!

The Caramel latte was INCREDIBLE! I've been into coffee for 20 years & even worked as a barista. They make magic here, all of the staff is well trained & kind. Calm vibe

Rude staff member made it unwelcoming. Overpriced considering the pastries were from yesterday. Coffee was good, but not enough to redeem it. The real gem is the beautiful backyard terrace - a lovely spot. With better service & fresher treats, this place could be great.

Love this chain. They have such a chill vibe & cozy setting. It is perfect for hanging out & or even working. Strong wifi, indoor couch or table seating, & a backdoor patio with greenery. Also the coffee is really good.

loved the fact the barista actually cared to give me an extra hot latte, something they say they will in coffeeshops but they don't! cute vibes & has patio!

Coffee & service is great but couple issues with the place
Phone data doesn't work inside the cafe unless you sit right by the front window.
& their WiFi is pretty bad, & too much data collection for letting you use it.

Cafe in gamba is my favourite place in the Mile End, & it never disappoints. The barista was so helpful in picking out a bag of coffee beans today, he took time to explain all the different kind & now I cannot wait to finish this first bag to try a new one. Great place!
