Review Summary

Kem CoBa is widely regarded as one of the premier ice cream destinations in Montreal, celebrated for its high-quality artisanal gelato, sorbets, and rotating soft serve flavors. Visitors frequently praise the shop for its unique and creative flavor combinations, particularly the Vietnamese-inspired options like pandan and salted cream, which offer a refreshing and authentic taste profile. While the shop is famous for its long lines and a strictly cash-only payment policy that requires advance preparation, many patrons find the experience well worth the wait. The vibrant community atmosphere, friendly service, and commitment to fresh, well-balanced ingredients make it a must-visit spot in the Mile End neighborhood, though some guests suggest checking the menu in advance as popularity can occasionally lead to varied personal experiences.

This spot has really good ice cream. I got the 70% chocolate & it was really good. Creamy & packed with flavour on every bite! It's cash only as well.

Elite.

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 dry

Par une chaude soirée d'été, on s'est laissé tenter par une glace chez Kem Coba, & franchement, c'était une vraie claque ! J'ai pris deux boules : corn flakes & caramel salé & c'est sans exagérer l'une des meilleures crèmes glacées que j'ai goûtées. Les saveurs sont incroyablement bien travaillées, on sent tout de suite que c'est du fait maison, artisanal à souhait, loin de tout ce qui est industriel.

La texture est onctueuse, les goûts sont riches sans être écoeurants. Petit point à noter : ils n'acceptent que l'argent comptant, donc pensez à passer au guichet avant d'y aller.

Une adresse que je recommande les yeux fermés à tous les amateurs de vraie glace !
