Véritable attrait touristique montréalais, la gigantesque boule orange du Restaurant Gibeau Orange est un lieu de rencontre familial où savourer un bon jus d'orange.
Gibeau Orange Julep est décrit comme emblématique et divertissant, avec la gigantesque orange et la boisson Orange Julep, crémeuse et mousseuse, souvent considérée comme la vedette de l'expérience. Les critiques louent le jus pour sa douceur rafraîchissante et son caractère distinctif, bien que certains le trouvent trop sucré ou trop laitier, et certains estiment que le goût peut varier selon les lots. Le menu associe des plats rapides classiques comme hot dogs, poutine et burgers au fameux jus d'orange, et les portions ainsi que la qualité varient selon les visites, certains plats étant appréciés et d'autres critiqués comme excessivement chers pour de la restauration rapide. Le stationnement est facile et l'endroit offre une ambiance détendue et nostalgique, surtout dehors par beau temps, mais les places assises à l'intérieur sont limitées et l'espace peut sembler bondé ou touristique. Dans l'ensemble, c'est une visite incontournable à Montréal pour le jus d'orange et l'ambiance emblématique, avec des avis tranchés sur la valeur et la constance selon ce qui est commandé.
The food is good (I got the hot dog & poutine combo) & the beverage is not exactly to my taste, but you can definitely feel the orange flavor! As a side note, it is not possible to dine-in! (But you can eat in your car since there's a big parking lot 🚗)

There are times when the cost of a product exceeds its value. The menu at the orange julep has reached this point.
Yes, it has appeal as a landmark, & for many a nostalgic place to go for a dog & a julep... But I would really love to see how many people have stopped going or are ordering less because the prices have exceeded the value of what they are ordering.
Every business owner has the right to make a profit. The question is, is the operational cost so high that the clients have come to feel gouged?
A big orange ball! The actual drink was alright, but not incredible. The parking lot is arranged so that people can park their cars & look at the ball. I went on a Friday night at about 8 or so, & there were a number of cars revving their engines & zooming around which was a bit annoying. The back of the ball has washrooms which are available to use.
Took close to 30 minutes to get a single poutine & there really weren't many people... poutine was just ok. Fries not fried long enough & barely any sauce. Large poutine is smaller than most places.
Orange Julep is an Iconic restaurant in Montreal. The juice is really good & not overly sweet.
Their food is good for my liking & have a lot of selections to choose from.
A few things I noticed was that service can be slow since they are rushing to cater to customers since it can be very busy at a certain time.
Also, the price. It can be quite EXPENSIVE to eat there but they accept Credit & debit cards & Cash so make sure you are ready to pay the price.
The food though is fresh & better than Any fast food.
The staff & employees are working hard to cater to all & they are doing an amazing job.
The workers are good & doing the average.
Overall an amazing restaurant for fast food & a Highly recommendation for a decent lunch or Dinner.
Also they have car shows there as well sometimes & a nice area & location near the highway & Namur station.
But I hate the fact that they have wasps everywhere you eat especially outside & the summer. They should find a way to fix that because it’s sad.
Also some tables here are broken & not the best.
As of September, 2023 I will never eat here again in terms of seating. I just only get the juice & the food & eat somewhere else but never here around the orange. Too much Birds & Wasps.
Well, I'll try not to make it too long
Basically, I didn't like the drink, but I liked the poutine. Basically, this is the #1 poutine on my list.
Now, let's get to the explanation
The Orange Juice.
Well, if you're from US/Canada, it'll be tasty for you, but for me foreign, well, it was strange
Firstly, it HAS the taste of freshly squeezed orange juice, like just from the tree, which is great
But then, secondly, the sweetness. I don't know, it's just too sweet, like "double it & give it to the next person".
In my opinion, orange juice is a little bit sweet, but sour in the first place.
Maybe it's due to that European oranges are more sour? Well, I may be just different sort of oranges, that I don't like
Conclusion: "On taste & color - hard to find a mate"
The combination of sweet orange juice & milk is unique but definitely not for everyone lol. Beside that, the hot dog & cheeseburger are juicy & worth a try!

This is definitely a classic Montreal staple. I will admit the quality of food/increase of price has changed over the years. I am also bummed by the fact that half of the parking lot is now a seating area, which used to be a hangout spot for vintage cars/motorcycles, etc.. The experience of visiting the giant orange is a must, but I do know there are better options for hotdogs & poutines in Montreal. To be noted, the staff was friendly!
Première grosse boule orange =drôle.
Deuxièment la nourriture était pas dégueu mais pas délicieuse
Un service impeccable, mais une atmosphère exécrable j’espère que vous aimer manger entourer de guêpes vu que les poubelles (pleines) sont directement à coter des tables sans mentionner l’odeur peu alléchante de ces meme poubelles
P.s mon fils Mathias c fait pique
An Orange Julep is definitely an experience, nothing quite like it in taste, though it’s not for everyone, you either love it or you hate it.. the food is good though, good steamy, good poutine

They promise fresh orange juice & they deliver.
If you’re lactose intolerant you might wanna confirm the additives before ordering the orange juice. Also they serve competitive poutine.
C'est pas la grosse gastronomie mais c'est bon..je me suis tenue aux Classic hot dog ,Poutine & jus d'orange..les enfants aiment ça.. c'est un lunch rapide & pas cher. Je vais sans doute y retourner si je passe par la
Impossible de manquer la grosse boule orange sur le boulevard Decarie.
AU cours des annees le choix du menu s est agrandi....Offrant sandwich a la viande fumee .filet de sole etc...
Pour les plus vieux des la premiere gorgee du merveilleux elixir a l orange on se souvient des serveuses a patins a roulettes qui apportait
notre commande a l auto...
Ce breuvage n a pas change au cours des annees & pourquoi changer?
Lorsque la recette est parfaite ....
Impossible de manquer la célèbre boule orange à la sortie de station Namur. Gibeau Orange Julep est une véritable institution à Montréal digne d'être photographiée devant.
Portion raisonnable de trio (frites, hot-dog, orange) pour un peu plus cher qu'un McTrio mais qui respire plus l'authenticité. Le hot-dog Nathan était délicieux, les frites trop molles mais leur fameux jus... un MUST à Montréal. Le service est rapide mais un peu distant à la fois.
