Review Summary

Across the reviews, Bello is seen as a neighborhood find with delicious Italian inspired sandwiches, notably standout paninis and a good coffee scene, wrapped in a warm, welcoming space that many describe as charming. The food is frequently praised for freshness and rich flavors, with some noting the bread and meats as particularly good, and there is broad enthusiasm for the variety of breakfast and lunch options. Service is praised for friendliness and efficiency at times, but several reviews mention inconsistency, with some staff being rude or distracted and others attentive, especially during busy periods; some guests also mention that the sandwiches are premade and customization is limited, and that prices can be high for what is offered. While the overall experience is positive and Bello stands out in Old Montreal for quality and ambiance, a few visits left diners disappointed due to mismatched expectations on service and value.

Food - 4/5 - I got the smoked meat sandwich/panini as I vowed to get a'Montreal' smoked meat sandwich on my visit. It was good. Smoked meat isnt my go to however as some of the other items sounded/looked delicious. Quote a few varieties of sandwiches to pick from. Not sure if you can customize your sandwich as they were premade.
Service - 3/5 - Service is minimal at Bello as you order at the counter & they provide you a tray for your food. Sandwich was quickly ready as it was premade & just needed to be panini pressed. I was a bit disappointed by the soda selection as multiple kinds were unavailable.
Atmosphere - I enjoyed their decor & music. Was very warm & welcoming.
Overall - I enjoyed my experience at Bello. I suggest trying them out of you are visiting Old Montreal / Old Port & want a quick sandwich.

Wondering through the old port came across this place. Very cute friendly staff. Food is good. I would reccomend the quiche anytime! & needed to give a shout out to Abby at the cash who was phenomenal.

We went there on a cold day during the holidays as we were walking around in the Old Port, the coffee & sandwiches were great. They hit the spot & the staff was very nice & patient

Top spot for sandwichs in the old port no contest. their sandwichs selection is top tier. Freshly cut meats & veggies right in front of you, freshly made bread & the taste is to die for.

Cute little Italian sandwich shop in the old port of Montreal 🇮🇹🥪 // Service was quick & staff were polite, however for just two sandwiches our total came to $32 after tax... which is nutty! I don't care how the good the sandwiches are - unless they're wrapped in gold, that price feels like a rip 🙄😒

Yummy Italian sandwich in Old port with many menu options. We got 2 sandwich combos for lunch which comes with a salad of choice & a select drink. The sandwiches are very good & range from $13-16 for just the sandwich. The combo is $21 before tax & tip - the end cost was around $26 which I think its overpriced for what you are getting. We dined in & there were a lot of flies around the table while we ate which ruined the atmosphere a bit. Overall, it is a good Italian sandwich shop that I would visit again (just for sandwich) when in Old port, however I have other Italian sandwich shops I prefer in other areas of Montreal. The staff were friendly & the cafe is nicely located near the canal.

Solid 4 for the food, maybe a bit overpriced but can be justified given they’re in the Old Port:)
