About Gibeau Orange Julep

Gibeau Orange Julep is the giant orange sphere on boulevard Décarie in Montreal, a roadside landmark since 1932. It serves its frothy, creamy orange drink, the Julep, along with hot dogs and fries. The big orange building is one of the city's most recognizable sights from the highway.

It suits families, nostalgic Montrealers and visitors who want a fun, very local snack stop. Summer evenings are the classic time to go, when people gather in the parking lot with their drinks. Order a Julep and a hot dog, take a photo with the orange, and you have a small piece of Montreal history.
