Review Summary

Havre aux Glaces draws mixed notes from reviewers, with a long queue and prices that feel high for scoops, though flavors come across as rich and ingredient-forward, featuring visible pistachio and a strong matcha while some cones taste a bit burnt and portions feel small for the cost. Many praise the sorbets and the best sorbet flavors, with seasonal rotations that keep trying something new on each visit. The shop offers a wide range of dairy-free options, which is appreciated by lactose intolerant guests. Some descriptions frame the product as artisanal ice cream rather than gelato, with flavor profiles that taste very real and include pistachio, hazelnut, and caramel or maple variations. There is no seating inside, but the market setting provides nearby picnic tables, even in winter. A pink grapefruit sorbet in a half-liter portion is highlighted, and overall flavors are consistently delicious, even if some find the price and portion size a touch high.

They have the best ice cream, period. Especially the sorbet flavors are the absolute best of what I have tasted in multiple cities in Canada & US. Lemon, clementine, argousier, passion fruit, etc. They are all so good. For sure I will be back to try all the flavors. Highly recommend it.

It tastes so real! Super tasty flavor bombs! I took pistachio (best I ever had), hazelnut & some caramel or maple one. It's weird that people call it gelato because she said it's artisanal ice cream. Gelato has no cream & more sugar. They were kind & let me taste a few. I picked a cup instead of cone. No place to sit but it's at jean-talon market, & there are pic nic rables nearby even in winter.

Besr ice cream I have ever tried in Montreal

I don't know how they're able to contain all that flavour in a small cup, but it's just one of the most flavourful ice creams I've ever seen. They do capture the essence of the ingredient without fillers. My favourites are the brûlée caramel & chocolate. When they have porcini ice cream, run towards them. It is unusual but very delicious with all the umami
