Review Summary

Gibeau Orange Julep is widely regarded as an iconic Montreal landmark, primarily celebrated for its unique giant orange architecture and its legendary, creamy signature orange drink. Many visitors find the atmosphere nostalgic and retro, often enjoying the lively environment where car and bike enthusiasts frequently gather. While the signature beverage is a major draw for its distinct, sweet, and creamy flavor profile, opinions on the food are mixed; some patrons praise the hot dogs and poutine as classic comfort food, while others find the menu overpriced and the quality inconsistent. Service is generally described as efficient and quick, though experiences with staff friendliness vary. Despite some criticisms regarding high prices and the presence of wildlife in outdoor eating areas, the establishment remains a must visit destination for those seeking a quintessential Montreal experience.

Great orange creamsicle drinks. Menu is on the expensive side (no combos under $22 before tax) add a tip & tax & you will pay around $27 per person. Service is good but there is room for improvement. The atmosphere is unique & worth the detour, especially at night.

Food was ready & sitting on the counter for 15 minutes & got cold when several other people who ordered after me got their food before me. I had to complain to get my food when it was just sitting there on the counter the whole time. Also my order came with a side coleslaw & they didn't provide a fork. Fries were cold & bland with no salt. Very poorly organized & the overall delivery needs to do much better. Will never return to this place.

They need someone to man & lines & stop line cutters. The line tripled since we got there with everyone budding. Close to 2 hour wait
