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.

On a trouvé cet endroit par hasard, parce que le café où on devait se rencontrer mon amie & moi n'avait pas assez de place pour s'asseoir.

J'ai pris le panini à la dinde, le géant biscuit aux pépites de chocolat, un petit dessert au citron (j'ai oublié le nom!) & un latté.

Tout était absolument délicieux! Le décor était charmant & le staff super gentil ☺?

Je vais probablement y retourner, comme c'est proche du musée Pointe-à-Callière & que j'y vais régulièrement!

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.

Nice Italian deli near Old City/waterfront/museum. Nonna is in the back & will direct you to seating & tell you that you don't have to bus your dishes. 😉 Enjoyed my muffeleta panini.

Stumbled upon this place one waiting for an appointment in Old Montreal & needed some breakfast. Found out it was too late for breakfast, but they had a frittata sandwich on the menu so I ordered that. Did not realize it was going to be a panini, & it was the best surprise ever.
Looking forward to going back as soon as possible.

I'll start by mentioning that the menu is in Italian. So some guesswork may be in order. But the paninis are really good. We had the ham & cheese & the Italian sausage. They're cold in the case & they heat them up when you order. The ham & cheese was good but the sausage was much better. The sausage was quite spicy which I appreciated. It's pretty basic inside there were enough tables for everyone on a September Saturday.

Excellent service ! Nous avons pu prendre une grande commande à l'avance & l'équipe nous a bien accueillis & s'est bien adaptée à nos demandes. Les personnes au comptoir sont souriantes & chaleureuses. Les paninis sont délicieux & frais. J'y retournerai avec grand plaisir !

Good panini’s. Good selection. Ordered the Le Steak. Good portion just a little salty for my taste. The prices ranged from $12-15
