About Havre aux Glaces

Havre aux Glaces is a sorbet and ice cream maker at Jean-Talon Market in Montreal. It works with seasonal fruit and with maple from its own sugar bush. The flavours follow the market around it, so what is in the cases often reflects what is in season.

It suits families, market strollers and anyone who likes a cone made from real ingredients. Try a fruit sorbet on a hot summer day, or a maple ice cream to taste a Quebec classic. A cup in hand is a nice way to end a shopping trip at Jean-Talon, after filling your bag with produce, cheese and bread.
