Review Summary

Café In Gamba is widely celebrated as a staple in the local community, known for its inviting, stylish atmosphere and high-quality coffee that consistently impresses many visitors. The space features beautiful indoor seating and a popular outdoor terrace that perfectly complements the vibrant street environment. While the majority of patrons praise the friendly staff and the consistently smooth, flavorful espresso-based drinks, a segment of customers notes that the busy environment can feel impersonal or sometimes noisy. Experiences regarding food quality and pricing vary, as do opinions on service consistency and specific menu restrictions. Despite these mixed perspectives, the location remains a favorite destination for those seeking a cozy spot to study, socialize, or enjoy a premium cup of coffee.

Café In Gamba sur Laurier est plus qu'un café. Es une petite communauté ou le service a la clientèle est chaleureux, bienveillant & professionnel. Le café & pour moi le matcha latte est parmi les meilleurs en ville.
Dans ce café je me suis reposé, j'ai étudié, j'ai travaillé dans mes projets & j'ai calmé plus d'une fois des anxiétés & des peines. Dommage qu'il n'y a plus des tables pour bien placer les ordis & cahiers.
Je recommend Café in Gamba sur Laurier car on s'y sent chez nous.

Beautiful cafe, thoughtfully localized on a vibrant street. Good coffee, mid-to-higher range prices, but about standard for Montréal coffee shops in 2026. Delicious espresso based drinks as well as other specialty drinks (loved the matcha & a big fan of their chai latte). 90 minutes restriction on wifi makes it less than ideal for students, but ensures a good rollover to allow for a good flow throughout the day (basically meaning, you will for sure find a place to sit). One of my favourites in Montreal & I am happy to support whenever I am in the area!

Not only was the customer service bad, I got a latte & I saw the barista re-steam the milk. When I complained that the latte tasted burnt they refused to remake it.
