Info & Location
Kem CoBa (in Vietnamese it means "third auntie's ice cream", nickname given to co-owner Ngoc by her niece) offers fresh ice cream and sorbet prepared with premium quality ingredients, with no preservatives nor artificial flavours. You'll also find homemade soft ice cream, with featured flavours that change based on the 2 chefs' mood and creative escapades. How about coconut-mango or strawberry cheesecake? You can also buy pastries that complement ice cream and sorbet. But this time, they're Ngoc's own little creations (baked on site). Now we're talking about shortbread, brownies, almond tiles, butter cakes, canelés, sponge cakes, etc. And a little (sweet) Asian touch is what makes them so special...

Tried two flavours, the pandan ice cream & the raspberry, lychee & rose sorbet. Both were sooo good. The flavour was strong but didn't conflict with each other. Not sickeningly sweet. Had to lick my cup dryView more

Unique flavours. Their soft serve is delicious & it changes often. They have one of the best chocolate ice cream I've ever had. Cash only, so come prepared.View more

Delicious & smooth sorbet! The flavours were refreshing & will definitely want to come back to try more.
There was a lineup, but it moved well.View more

Absolutely the best ice cream, hands down. We've been going since they opened, literally among their first customers, & we still go multiple times every summer. The soft serve twist changes every two weeks on Tuesday & it's always delicious & creative. They nail the flavours every single time. Our all-time favourite is the apple cinnamon at the end of the season. Kem Coba is a Montréal classic for a reason.View more

Kem Coba is one of the top 3 places for outstanding ice cream in Montreal. If we are having dinner in the area we stop for dessert here. About every two weeks there soft ice cream flavour changes & the flavours are exquisite burst of a perfect blend of flavours. In the fall their last soft ice cream taste like apple pie. WOW. Dry duran, salted butter, the dark chocolate is devine.. Not sure if you will like the soft ice cream, just get a mini & come back for more.
Vincent , Ngoc family & team are very friendly & patient.
The line up is long in summer, hence the rope because that is how good & popular Kem Coba is . There are seats to enjoy & chat with friends. The summer heat has finally arrived & its time for delicious ice cream & sorbet . Also a stop on my ice cream tours of Montreal.
Highly recommended

Came here while visiting Montreal back in the end of September. Randomly fell to my knees as I had a flashback of this delicious ice cream. Prompted me to write this review. I need you to open a shop in Toronto, please! Jokes aside, love how inventive they are with their flavours. The long lines speak for themselves, these guys should be a national treasure. I'm not a fan of sweets, but I can easily inhale 10 pints of whatever these guys are offering. The soft serve with raspberries & cheesecake was an easy 15/10. Beware, all other ice cream after Kem Coba will be a let down.View more

The ice cream flavours amazed us especially the Vietnamese special flavours. Staff members were nice & friendly. Kids clearly loved the ice cream! Look at our son's faceView more

Really love the Asian-inspired flavours offered at this place. I found the flavours were very unique & not commonly found in any other ice cream shops I've been to. We had a double scoop of pandan & salted butter. We really loved the pandan ice cream, the flavour was really strong & true to what pandan tastes like!! I also have never seen pandan offered anywhere else. Definitely recommend this place.View more

This is the best ice cream store in montreal. It combines extremely high quality ice cream (rich, creamy, great texture) with incredibly creative flavours. The salted butter & 72% chocolate go together extremely well. But the matcha & pandan leaf (if they have them) are the stars of the show. Both bring an earthyness that contrasts beautifully to their sweetness. If you want good ice cream bring cash & get ready for a line, but it'll be worth it.View more

The ice cream is delicious. Love all the flavours. The owner is really nice!View more

I love this place, they make lots of unique flavours & many are geared towards Asian flavours, such as pandan & soursop. The gelatos & sorbets are well made & have a rich but not overly sweet taste. My favourites are pandan & mango sorbet. Please note that they're only open during the summer months (closes in September) & only take cash. Be aware that there may be lineups, but it is worth it!View more

Popular spot for ice cream. Ordered the vietnamese coffee flavour ice cream in a cup. Enjoyed it while sitting outside the shop. I believe they only take cash. They allow you to test try 1 flavour only.View more

One of the best ice creams in mtl! Delicious, creamy & rich but not heavy Idk how they do it but it's great! So many flavours to choose from & they have new flavours weekly. I personally loved the pandan! Long lineup but it goes by quickly. Cash only. Def recommend if you're around the area!View more
Gabriel
Deeeelicious! They captured the pandan & soursop flavours really well. Not too sweet, & super creamy. I haven't found any place else that has these southeast asian flavours - it really hits home. I need to go back for the durian!View more
