Located at 474 Victoria Ave, this cozy boutique exudes a warm, inviting atmosphere reminiscent of a quaint film set, as one customer aptly described.

Owner is very nice make you feel at ease, this is a family hard at work making sure customers are getting value from their purchase. Affordable delicious ice cream and Gelato. Very nice owners. Saint Lambert has a small cosy feel to it, this place fits the decor.

I've been going too often to Hartley's since I was a kid, all the locations have always been great. Well worth the detour for some fantastic frozen treats.

Delicious selection of homemade icecream. The chocolate is also worth a try.

I really loved the design of the shop. It is like out of a movie. You will be welcomed with a smiling face and an energetic personality. I have tried the sorbet mango and it was delicious. There are sittings outside that are perfect in a sunny warm day. In addition, you can sit inside. I have sat in the chair next to window. I definitely recommend.

We recently tried Hartley as an ice cream stop and now understand what the hype is about! Incredible quality of ingredients, extensive selection of house-made ice creams, and delightful treats. A Saint-Lambert institution

Well, cannot suggest only one flavor coz all of them are amazing but cardamom was the one I liked the most. If ginger, guava or berries flavors are available, choose them!
