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.
Reviews depict Café In Gamba as a stylish, cozy café where coffee is the main attraction, with baristas crafting drinks across the roast spectrum and notable specials like moka and matcha that many find delicious; the space itself is praised for artful decor, soft natural light, and a welcoming terrace that makes it easy to linger. The atmosphere is repeatedly described as warm and inviting, suitable for studying, chatting, or simply soaking in the mood, with attentive staff contributing to a friendly vibe. Some critiques mention high prices, occasional inconsistency in service, and limited food options or disappointing value, as well as practical quirks like no outlets or slower wifi during busy times. Taken together, Café In Gamba seems to be a go-to spot for coffee lovers who value both quality drinks and a visually pleasing, comfortable setting, even if the menu and service can sometimes vary.
I stopped by café In Gamba this morning, & the vibe was really chill & welcoming, nice people around, a cozy atmosphere. I ordered a small latte, & I was pleasantly surprised by the size, it's actually quite big, which was a nice surprise! The coffee itself was really good, smooth & flavorful. I also had a croissant, perfectly crispy on the outside & soft & moist on the inside. Overall, it was a nice experience. They also sell coffee beans, mugs, & other coffee accessories.
15 dollars for a latte, a croissant & a chocolatine. The coffre was good but the food was truly awful, couldn't finish it.
There are places in the same street where I pay half the price for much better quality. I don't understand the hype.
Solid coffee. Staff are always friendly. Ample indoor seating & lovely outside terrace in the warmer months.
Can be very busy at times but still a great place to grab a quick coffee or sit & work for a couple hours.
Je suis allé dans ce café pour une petite pause dans l'après-midi, il y avait énormément de monde qui venait & qui repartait ça faisait un peu à la chaîne pas très authentique malheureusement.
Le personnel est vraiment très très agréable, un sans-faute, par contre les boissons sont un peu chères pour ce que c'est, le goût n'est pas forcément très intense. C'est un peu dommage..
Lieu bruyant.
I think I am not going back to this place. Despite being a nice place, where I have been multiple times, certain things are too much'their way' or' no way'. I wish they would have regular sugar instead of only that brown thing we need to put twice the amount & it doesn't taste the same. I wish they would have regular soft drinks & typical pastry, not only' a la vegane style. What kept me wishing to go there again is the nice ambiance with the street environment, the seating place outside connected with the interior when the garage door is open. Today it was sunny, 26 deg C outside, the garage door was closed & I inquired if they could open as to me that is the greatest feature of this place, but the young attendant said that the door would remain closed for the confort of the employees, that didn't want to work with the external heat coming inside. Well, I will look for another place where we can still enjoy life as it is meant to be.
J'ai adoré l'expérience. Le barista était très serviable, de bon conseil. L'endroit est très agréable. Je sais maintenant où revenir déguster un bon mokaccino. 😊
Internet inutilisable. Je suppose qu'ils veulent le faire intentionnellement. Mais si c'est le cas, limitez la durée du wifi au lieu d'avoir une connexion aussi lente. Ce serait plus respectueux du temps & de l'argent des gens.
Unusable internet. I guess they want to do so intentionally. But if so, limit the wifi time instead of having a connection this slow. That would be more respectable for people's time & money.
This café offers a pleasant ambiance with beautiful outdoor seating under pergolas. However, my espresso lungo was served in a big cup & it lacked the expected richness. My wife's iced matcha latte fell flat.
As a lesser known branch of one of Montreal's first fourth wave coffee shops, Cafe in Gamba features outstanding, high-quality coffee in a cozy, not-too-crowded space. The coffee is phenomenal -- it's rich, smooth, slightly nutty, & not overly acidic. The baristas are remarkably friendly (& very willing to practice French, for those who are trying to build up their French vocabulary :)), & I love the variety of indoor & outdoor seating. The front windows open into the outdoors, & there's also a lovely patio area with open benches right next to the park. Can't wait to come back!
