Crèmerie SWIRL earns praise for its creamy coconut-based soft serve and weekly rotating flavors that keep things fresh for vegan and non-dairy eaters, with many noting high-quality, indulgent textures and a sense of novelty as new flavors appear each week. The small seasonal menu and walk-up service help lines move quickly, though a few reviews describe the selection as limited and the prices as steep for the portion size. Flavors span hojicha chocolate, black sesame, genmaicha, passionfruit vanilla and other tropical or dessert-inspired blends, with some weeks delivering standout combinations while others feel more ordinary. Opinions vary between top-tier recommendations and criticisms of value, but the place is often described as friendly, fast, and a welcome addition to Montreal's vegan ice cream scene. The setting in a pleasant area near a park invites strolls, and the rotating flavors encourage repeat visits to try the latest creations, with many returning weekly while others feel the offerings don't always justify the cost. Overall, Crèmerie SWIRL appears to be a popular, rotating flavor destination that many customers rate highly, even as some reviews flag price or variety as drawbacks.
My fav ice cream spot of the summer! Vegan soft swirl options that change every week, you get to choose from two options & they're all so good & homemade! Very friendly service as well
Amazing ice cream - soft serve style. Great for lactose intolerant folks because there's no dairy! Flavours change weekly so it's like going for the first time every time. Sometimes the flavours they come up with are different or not often seen like black sesame. My favourite is getting a combo...so good! Get some while it lasts & get fat for the winter.
Fast & friendly service, small seasonal menu only'saveures du moment'. EXTREMELY DELICIOUS, not overly sweet like other ice cream places. Recommend 100000%
I absolutely love this spot! They bring out exciting new flavors every week & use coconut milk instead of regular milk, which makes their ice cream feel so fresh & unique. It's a must try for anyone, whether you want to explore new flavors or stick with your favorites. I love it so much that they really should start a loyalty card for all their regular customers. This place is truly special!

Came across this gem on a friday night, came back the following day to try their Genmaicha + Chocolate Swirl Ice Cream & it was a hit! They do change their menu every week & last day to try that week's flavour is Sunday (if i recall)
Superbe découverte. Texture soyeuse unique. Framboise / chocolat Superbe combo. Léger goût de coconut grillé avec le chocolat. Vraiment top & service super sympa. On y retourne!

The tastiest soft-serve with the friendliest service in town. Bonus: it's coconut-based & vegan, but even the most devoted dairy lover will marvel at the thick, creamy mouthfeel & satisfying richness of this frozen treat.
Swirl stands out amidst a bustling Montreal ice cream scene. The flavours are out-of-this-world & if there is a line up, it moves quickly. Although it's a little expensive (given the quantity), it's very appreciated that they don't prompt you for an 18% tip on top of the price. Very much worth a visit (if not a weekly visit)!
Tasty vegan soft serve with a nostalgic twist! The coconut aroma might throw you at first if you're not a fan, but trust me-your taste buds will adapt. Fast, friendly service & a great addition to Montreal's already stellar vegan scene. Would be five stars if the coconut aroma could be dialled down. We'll be back!
