Really cool spot, great decoration & style, nice music too. The atmosphere is pretty chill & transports you to an Italian coffee bar. I try a cheese & eggplant sandwich & a marocchino coffee & both were superb!

Meilleur sandwich que j'ai eu dans tout Montréal, le seul petit hick c'est qu'on peut avoir l'impression de déranger de pas connaître toutes les spécialités italiennes, même si certains serveurs sont pas comme ça

Pour certains, la musique sera trop forte mais.... Ce petit shot de café & de musique énergique au matin m'a bien motivé.

Café selon les règles de l'art.

One of the best go-to coffee spots in the city & across all neighbourhoods. Italian style coffees, amazing pastries & cakes, fresh & flavourful sandwiches. Service is always 10/10 with huge smiles & friendly small talk. Been there 10+ times now with friends & family - not a single disappointed visitor yet :)

C'est simple : on se croirait en Italie ! Espresso, cappuccino, macchiato, panini... Si vous êtes italien·e·s & que votre pays vous manque, vous trouverez votre bonheur ici ainsi qu'une petite bouteille de crodino pour un aperitivo analcolico.
Service au bar.
