Le Patio Bar Laitier

Le Patio Bar Laitier is a Plateau classic—part neighbourhood hangout, part choose-your-own-adventure dessert lab. With more than 60 flavours spanning soft serve, hard ice cream, frozen yogurt, tofu-based scoops, and sorbets, this spot doesn’t do minimalism. Whether you’re after a massive espresso-dipped vanilla cone, a coconut scoop topped with toasted flakes, or a rich oat-milk chocolate swirl, Le Patio’s got a version—and a size—for everyone. Vegan? Gluten-free? Sugar-free? They’ve got you covered, no compromises. What keeps people coming back, though, isn’t just the variety—it’s the vibe. A sunny terrasse facing Mont-Royal, friendly staff who actually know their product, and a sense of continuity in a neighbourhood that’s always shifting. Open late, and open-hearted, Le Patio is where post-dinner strolls end, summer rituals begin, and where even the dog can get a treat. It’s been around for years, and judging by the lineups, it’s not going anywhere.
