Taken from Italian, our name means "a well-made coffee." Here, the flavors from the terroirs are brought to life by the talent of our baristas and the expertise of our roasters. Since 2007, we have been tirelessly pursuing the perfect cup. This quest is at the heart of our craft as coffee artisans.
Overall, Café In Gamba feels charming with a warm vibe, friendly staff, and a cozy atmosphere that invites lingering, helped by a lovely backyard terrace; the coffee is often highlighted as excellent, with a standout caramel latte and a highly praised matcha latte, and the cafe is a great spot for chats, reading, or working. Some pastries and the chocolateine receive mixed notes, with calls to improve the distribution of chocolate and to elevate drink presentation such as latte art; a few reviews mention pastry freshness and occasional pricing concerns. The service is consistently described as fast and welcoming, contributing to a neighborhood feel that many return to, and the place is repeatedly praised as a top pick in the area, though occasional wifi or data questions and minor pricing issues can crop up.
Le gamba est un de mes cafés préférés, super belle ambiance pour étudier/travailler & le café est toujours super! Par contre, je suis toujours un peu déçue du service…😢

Endroit charmant, personnel très sympathique, carte variée & produits qui ont l'air délicieux.
Le seul problème c'est la chocolatine, s'il vous plaît, essayez de revoir la façon de la faire. J'ai littéralement eu l'impression de manger un croissant avec une grosse quantité de chocolat dur au centre.
La pâte est pourtant bonne, mais une chocolatine, c'est censé avoir un peu de chocolat à chaque bouchée. Là, c'était assez désagréable de manger du croissant, puis de tomber d'un coup sur un gros amas de chocolat, avant de finir à nouveau sur juste du croissant.
Got the caramel latte & brie panini. They were good, but disappointed with the low-effort presentation. Thought there would be some latte art considering how prominently it features in the cafe's logo & branding
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!
Le In Gamba St-Viateur est mon café prf depuis plus de 3 ans! Je le nomme' ma cachette' & ce à cause de sa jolie petite terrasse derrière, terrasse où l'on se sent n'importe où dans le monde, des gens de partout le fréquente, pour sa chaleur, l'ambiance, le personnel & le délicieux café. J'y suis tellement attaché. C'est un incontournable dans le 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.
We went there today at 14h & this rude waiter was more concerned in talking with his colleague rather than serving us. No thank you… no hi. What a bad service.
The cleaning was terrible.
Floor & corners really dirty.
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
I had a caramel latte & a vegetable soup. Both were amazing. The staff were super friendly, & the service was efficient & attentive. I highly recommend it. ☀?
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.
