decision paralysis is real at troisième icône glacée…read more
with soft serve, milkshakes, floats, sundaes, and a selection of hard ice cream, choosing what to order is half the fun and half the challenge. then add in playful names like unicorn poop, george michael sundae, and shirley where r u, and suddenly making a decision feels almost impossible. take advantage of the line up to read their menu.
located at 1419 rue clark, this newer location sits right in the heart of the quartier des spectacles, across from esplanade tranquille. after building a following at its other montreal locations, iconoglace brought its creative ice cream creations downtown, with a much larger space that makes it easy to linger and enjoy your treat.
the space itself is bright, spacious, and full of fun details. whether you're someone who enjoys the energy of a busy room or someone who appreciates a little personal space, they've even added a playful touch with bathrooms designed for introverts and extroverts.
the menu goes beyond traditional ice cream shop favourites. they offer vegan friendly options, montreal's only maple syrup based slush, and homemade waffles that are freshly baked daily. there's truly something for everyone, whether you're craving something classic, over the top, or completely unique.
for anyone struggling to commit to just one flavour, they'll let you sample their hard ice cream before making your final choice. once you've finally decided, you pay, receive a number, and they'll call you when your order is ready. the service was friendly and efficient, even with the steady stream of customers coming through.
the lines can look intimidating, but don't let that scare you off. despite the crowds, the process moves quickly and smoothly.
beyond the ice cream itself, what makes iconoglace fun is that it feels more like an experience than just a dessert stop. between the creative flavours, oversized treats, quirky names, fresh made waffles, and playful atmosphere, it's easy to see why people are willing to wait.
just be prepared, you may walk in thinking you know exactly what you want and leave realizing you were never prepared for this many choices.
