Gibeau Orange Julep

it's like right out of a movie; this is kind of the canadian equivalent of randy's donuts to me . the food is very fast food-y & the quality is obviously meh but sometimes that's the only thing that makes sense. except for the pogo. that was really good.

the hot dog was petite & the sausage way too salty (but the bun was soft & nicely toasted) , but the pogo was seriously scrumptious. it was so hot & fresh, & had a doughy, thick batter. needed some ketchup/mayo for flavour though.

their signature orange julep was like a milkier, creamier, & sweeter version of fresh orange juice - not really like orange julius's drink, like i was expecting. not bad though

the poutine was good too, with super squeaky curds & a savoury, salty gravy drenched over some thin fries.

The poutine was surprisingly good! The fries are thinner, a bit crispy at the edges, the cheese squeaks, & the gravy is pretty decent! Definitely a B tier poutine overall.

Ordered a small orange julep as well to cut the richness of the poutine. It was just alright, considering the price. It's just creamy orange juice at the end of the day... With a small drink, the straw is comically long. Felt like I was taking a sip in a different timezone.

$17 before tip for a small poutine & a small orange julep. All in all, pretty expensive for what it is. Especially in this economy...

Happy I tried it though, it's such an iconic spot in Montreal.

Went with a few friends last Saturday around noon & the classic Julep with a hot dog toppe still totally hits the spot after all these years. The parking lot was packed but they keep things moving fast even with the crowd. Sat outside at one of the picnic tables & just people watched for a while, that whole retro orange dome vibe never gets old. Staff at the window were quick & friendly even during the lunch rush, honestly perfect spot for a lazy weekend hangout.

Some people love the foods & drinks here. Some others hate them if you live long enough in MTL (& its surrounding) to meet a bunch of those people. Personally, I love their poutine & orange juice. It is cozy & it reminds me of my childhood. It reminds me of all the good times I was there with my family & friends. Never had a bad time. We brought our own ugly cars but we never annoyed anyone there. Do not go there expecting a fresh orange juice. It's a very sweet creamy version of Julius Orange from DQ but not exactly the same. Hard to describe. Their poutine is among my favorites. Their cheese curds are of lower quality in my opinion, because they melt when they're in contact with the boiling sauce & they don't squeak much. Their sauce is fairly good. Their fries are golden brown homemade Québec rural-style yummy & slightly sweet. 5 Stars regardless for all of its uniqueness.

Came here for the legend orange juice during the sunset, worth the view. It was a little bit of a wait & the juice didn't meet my expectation very much. Overall still pretty good.

Expensive doesn't even begin to describe it. Service & food is good, but the $$$ is not worth it.

Hope this place will close, the new owners are againts the car culture, gibeau became what they are because of the car enthousiats that would meet there to talk & drink the shitty orange juice they sell.

Dont go there this is not the good ol julep from back in the days.

Everything is overpriced now & the juice is not good anymore
