Review Summary

Havre aux Glaces earns praise for its high quality ice cream with strong natural fruit flavors and a broad sorbet lineup, including lactose free options that feel refreshing. Flavors are described as well balanced and not overly sweet, with recommendations for matcha, lemon and coffee. Reviewers note the shop is well located on Rue Sainte Catherine and that the offering is consistent at both the street location and the market location. Price and portion sizes are frequently mentioned, with many saying the prices are high for relatively small portions. Hours and openings can be confusing, as Google listings sometimes show hours that do not match actual closures. Service experiences vary, with many describing staff as friendly while a minority report rude or stingy service. Overall, Havre aux Glaces is seen as a top ice cream spot in Montreal and a go to for visitors and locals alike.

The best ice-cream ever, especially sorbets! You can really feel the natural taste of the fruit!

a lot better than any other super commercial ice creams. they have a whole line of sorbets (so lactose free) which are really refreshing & a good change for a while. also, ate both on this location & the market one & quality is the same

My all time favorite ice cream spot! The ice cream is delicious, although I have notice that the employees tend to be rude. I have been coming to this shop for a few years & always noticed their rude demeanor, however the ice cream is worth it 👌

The best ice cream I've had since I came to Canada. I recommend buying it in a house made cone

The ice cream is soooo good but they're so stingy with the portions. The prices are so high at least give us our money's worth :

The ice cream shop's storefront is located on rue Sainte-Catherine, between the main entrance of Place des Arts & rue Saint-Urbain, just near the Banque Nationale. Havre-aux-glaces is the perfect spot to visit if you love high-quality ice cream. the team at Have aux Glaces changes their ice cream flavors depending on what's in season & available in the market. I had just two scoops of ice cream. It was great, with a creamy flavor & a nice authentic gelato touch.
