Caffeteria est une adresse incontournable à Montréal pour les amateurs de café, avec une ambiance italienne authentique qui vous transporte dès le premier pas à l'intérieur. Leur expresso est tout simplement exceptionnel, probablement l'un des meilleurs de la ville. Intense, riche & parfaitement équilibré, il reflète un savoir-faire digne des meilleures cafétérias italiennes. Le lieu dégage un charme méditerranéen, avec une décoration sobre & élégante qui rappelle les cafés de Rome ou Milan. Que ce soit pour un café pris sur le pouce ou pour s'installer tranquillement avec un cornetto ou une pâtisserie maison, l'atmosphère est idéale. L'attention portée à chaque détail, de la musique au service, contribue à cette immersion dans une véritable expérience italienne. Le personnel est chaleureux & accueillant, ajoutant une touche supplémentaire à cette ambiance conviviale. Les prix sont tout à fait raisonnables pour la qualité exceptionnelle des produits & l'expérience proposée. Si vous cherchez un café digne des grandes traditions italiennes à Montréal, Caffeteria est un incontournable.

Stumbled upon this place around the corner from our hotel. Excellent coffee & the amarene cornetto & nutella cornetto were amazing, more bread-like but very very good! Later on we stopped by for a pressed panini & it was also amazing. They toasted it & the bread was soooo good. Really cute place (with cute baristas) & excellent genuine Italian products. Wish we had a place like this in Brooklyn.
