About Les Givrés

Les Givrés is an artisanal ice cream maker with shops in Villeray, Hochelaga and Rosemont. Since 2010 it has been known for playful flavours and for glazed ice cream bars that are as fun to look at as they are to eat.

It suits families, kids and anyone who treats a summer evening walk as an excuse for dessert. Try a seasonal flavour and pick up a few bars for the freezer before a backyard party. It is a very Montreal ritual: the first warm days of spring, a line outside a neighbourhood ice cream counter, and a cone in hand.
