Gibeau Orange Julep is described as iconic and fun, with the giant orange building and the creamy, frothy orange julep that many say is the star of the experience. Reviewers praise the juice as refreshingly sweet and distinctive, though a few find it overly sugary or milky in texture, and some say the taste can vary by batch. The menu blends classic fast food such as hot dogs, poutine, and burgers with the famous orange drink, and portions and quality are uneven across visits, with some dishes praised and others criticized as overpriced for fast food. Parking is easy and the venue has a relaxed, nostalgic atmosphere, especially outdoors on sunny days, yet seating inside is limited and the space can feel crowded or touristy. Overall it remains a Montreal must for the orange juice and the iconic vibe, with strong opinions about value and consistency depending on what is ordered.
A Hidden Citrus Gem in Montreal
Hands down one of the best orange juice spots I've come across in months. This place serves freshly squeezed orange juice that's incredibly refreshing & full of flavor - maybe with a hint of extra sugar, but honestly, it only makes it better. The taste is pure sunshine in a cup.
They offer various sizes & even some food options alongside the juice, but I went straight for the juice - & it did not disappoint. Quick, no-fuss service makes the whole experience even smoother.
The coolest part? The place is built with an actual orange-shaped structure that gives it so much character. People casually hang out in the parking lot, sipping their juice, chatting, & soaking in the vibe. It's chill, fun, & absolutely worth a visit if you're anywhere near Montreal.
Poutine & Juice was delish as usual. Husband had the breakfast sandwich, said it was really good.
Hotdogs were over cooked, so they lost some ratings for that.

The Orange Julep (Orange & Milk drink) & Poutine at Gibeau Orange Julep was awesome!
The Orange Julep which is a combo of orange & milk somehow worked together to give a smooth, refreshing, & not too sweet drink. It reminded me of an orange creamsicle but a better version of it in a beverage format. It was so good that we took home a jug of the Orange Jelup (see picture) back home with us. Would definitely recommend the Orange Julep if you craving a good orange creamsicle like drink in the Montreal, QC area.
The Poutine with Hot Dogs (Small) was awesome. The gravy & cheese kurds were delicious. The fries were mostly crispy & delicious. The hot dog pieces were good. Overall, a good & filling poutine :)
It's a unique orange juice that is a must try in Montreal. It's good but the price is on the expensive side. Is it worth it? Maybe!. At least try once a year before they get too expensive.
Orange Julep is an absolute staple in Montreal & truly iconic! The poutine & veggie hot dog are amazing full of flavor & perfectly satisfying. The orange juice is fresh & refreshing, & the service is always friendly & efficient. Whether you're a local or just visiting, this spot is a must-try for its delicious food & nostalgic charm. Highly recommend!

Giant Orange in the heart of Montreal! The poutine was good - not a fan of the hot dogs. The orange drink was delicious. Overall was pretty expensive for what it was. $4.41 for a side of gravy seemed a little much. 🤔

This is one of the famous attractions of Montreal. The giant orange shape building looks so fancy. Their orange juice is one of a piece! Every time I visit Montreal, it's a must visit place for me. I am always excited for this place. You will even enjoy their orange juice in the snow storm too! It's a must try! Recommended.
Orange Julep is truly delicious! The hot dog is a must, & best all dressed. The poutine is a warm, comforting hug of taste. Can never get enough Julep!
