Had the Mango Ice Cream in a cone from this spot & absolutely loved it! You can really taste how natural & fresh the flavor is. The vibe here is super chill & relaxing, perfect for hanging out with friends & catching up while enjoying some artisanal ice cream. Definitely a must-visit spot! 🍦✨
This is place is a gem. A staple in Saint-Laurent for 30+years.
Family owned & operated chocolatier & ice-cream parlour. Everything is made in-house & served by friendly family members who take pride in their products.
Highly recommended!
DISAPPOINTING. I've been going to chocomax since i was a little girl. used to be owned by a passionate man who loved the craft of making chocolate & gelato/used to be the best gelato in town. now it feels overpriced, the service is bad, prices unclear/seems like they force you to tip or something. stomach ache immediately. was so excited to visit from out of town & have a proper milkshake…well now it's a 10$ cup of milk that was too sweet to finish. no ice-cream in there to shake. Never been so disappointed with a gelato spot in my life. I MISS THE OLD CHOCOMAX made with love, not with greed.
*****added after the response from establishment below:
based on the passive aggressive response, pretty in-line with the service received in general, please don't worry about what i will & won't be reading. I obviously don't plan on coming back. appreciate the friendly & family-oriented response that, don't worry, has been screenshotted. my mistake to assume a 10$ milkshake would contain more than just milk & sugar. good luck with the business, too bad it was sold to whoever is running it now, leaving such professional & apologetic responses.
PS i would have skipped through but the server clicked buttons behind the counter, inside a drawer & hidden, then she clicked through the card machine herself. i didn't even have a chance to touch the machine at all which felt very sketchy to me.
Amazingly delicious ice cream! My kids & I loved the cherry, chocolate pistachio, & litchi flavours. The owner & her son were also so sweet & detailed in packing our chocolate gifts :) Highly recommend & can't wait to visit again!
📍 A Hidden Gem for Ice Cream & Chocolate Lovers in Montreal! 🍫🍦
I've officially become addicted to this place! I've been going almost every day with my kids - that's how good it is. 😍
The ice cream is incredibly rich, flavorful, & simply unforgettable. Every scoop tastes like it was made with love.
& the chocolate? Next-level quality! 🍫 Everything in the shop is handcrafted with real skill & artistry - you can taste the difference.
What makes the experience even better is the warm welcome from Ms. Nour, the lovely owner, & her kids. Their kindness & generosity make the visit even sweeter.
Highly recommend this place - a true local treasure you don't want to miss!
With love from Loz w Sucar! 💛✨
