Review Summary

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.

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.

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.

One of the best ice cream spots in the city! i love that it's dairy free & it's truly spectacular, it never disappoints. Plus the staff is so kind & friendly A+++!

Delicious ice cream & the staff were amazingly nice! My boyfriend & I were staying nearby & noticed this place always had a line. We knew we had to try it! We split a chocolate vanilla swirl. We saw people showing up with rewards cards & thought it seemed like some sort of ice cream cult with how many people seemed to be obsessed with it. We thought it tasted a bit creamier than the chocolate vailla swirls we have back home, but then later on learned it was vegan with a coconut milk base! That's why it tasted so different! I took a lactaid pill not even knowing, but really appreciated that it was dairy free. If you're nearby, it's worth the stop!

So so good. I can't believe it took me this long to try it. Prices are a bit on the high end at $7 for a cone, but I think it's my new favourite ice cream. You also get a good amount for what you pay. I didn't believe my friend when he said it was non-dairy, but, it's a bit more evident in the vanilla (very mild coconut(?) flavour). Check their Instagram to see what flavours they have, because they rotate flavours. I've never liked strawberry ice cream. I don't know if I ever will like strawberry ice cream from anywhere but this place. It's tart, sweet, & tastes so fresh. I had to go back the next day just to get it again before they changed their flavours. I tried a bit of the chocolate & matcha & that was also great- chocolate flavour was rich, & the matcha was bitter (in a good way) without being overpowering. Texture is great. Service is great. It's just a window, so no seating inside.
