The place is great in the summer with the outdoor terrace - BUT. The rest of the year it's limited to their 5-6 2-person tables indoors & it gets very crammed… & they BLAST music while a sign tells you'yes, we know our music is loud. 5 stars in the summer, 3 the rest of the year.

Best cafe in town.
I'm in love with the caffè nocciola.

I migliori baristi italiani sono qui 😍 I'm the biggest fan
This is the best thing about this caffetteria - love them all!! 💘

Coming back for more panino di mortadella e pistacchio 🩷💚 Es brutal.
El de rapini también… una locura.

Next time I'll ask you for a dozen da portare fino a Barcellona. Aunque es obvio, me los como en el avión 😅✈?

Big hug guys, grazie mille for the greatest time in Montreal 🇨🇦✨

As a tourist who was looking for a really good coffee..... I came here twice today! It was the best coffee I think I've ever had. It was a perfect latte, not burning hot & delicious!!!! Highly recommend.

Not sure why they serve iced coffee by grind it with ice instead of just putting ice on the coffee or having it iced! It ruins the flavor & taste
