At BOSSA, we make sandwiches the right way: bold, generous, and full of heart.
What started as a simple neighborhood sandwich shop has grown into a small, family-run restaurant chain built on a simple idea: authentic products, prepared with care. Every sandwich is made with our own bread, baked fresh every morning in our bakery. From our homemade proteins to our sauces and toppings, we give the same care to every ingredient we serve.
BOSSA Prêt à manger appears as a go to for generous Italian sandwiches, with favorites like porchetta, diavolo and chicken parmesan, plus cannoli, tiramisu and olive oil cake and a well stocked deli counter; reviews praise fresh ingredients, big portions and good value, while noting that bread quality can vary and the place is very busy with lines and wait times; the staff are frequently described as friendly and efficient, though there are occasional complaints about cleanliness or a chaotic prep area; overall it is hailed as one of Montreal's best sandwich spots and a must visit for fans of hearty Italian fare, with Verdun and Wellington locations both mentioned.
Visited Bossa Prêt-à-Manger on a busy Sunday afternoon. Ordering took just 5 minutes, but we waited around 30 minutes for our food. This felt unreasonable given we only ordered a Philly sandwich (a cold sandwich) & a pre-made potato salad straight from the fridge.
That being said, the food was delicious & offered great value for the price. Despite the long wait for a cold meal, the quality was good enough that we will definitely be returning. Highly recommended for the taste, just be prepared to wait when it's crowded!
Vraiment un endroit pour les Foodies les Sandwich font beaucoup d'heureux pour ma pars mon appétit est rarement aussi grand a moins d'être deux pour 1 seul sandwiche servis dans un paon maison a l'italienne.
Je recommande fortement les nombreuses salades spécialement celle aux betterave succulente & les cannoli frais fourré,la croûte est a tombé parterre.
Tant qu'a y être je devrais pas le mentionnés de peur qu'il épuise les inventaire suite a mon commentaire mais les polpettes ( Boulette de viande en paquets ) de 4 a 7 sonts dans une sauce tomate est a tout coup adoptés par ceux & celles avec qui je partage.

There's not much more that needs to be said about Bossa that hasn't been said before. If you're reading these reviews because a friend or family member recommended Bossa, or you're just scrolling & saw a 4.8 out of 5 stars here on Google Maps, there's good reason for both.
The sandwiches are some of, if not the best, In Montreal, maybe Quebec even. They are phenomenal, thoughtful creations, well balanced, & delicious. The bread is a perfect amount of soft & pillowy on the inside & great crust. They're sturdy & hold the generous amounts of filling of whatever sandwich you choose.
From the Porchetta, Italiano, Chicken Parm, or their sandwich of the month you really can't go wrong. The ingredients in each have been thoughtfully chosen & play off of each other so nicely.
This Bossa location is small & can definitely get crowded, especially around lunch. If you've got the time the lines usually move pretty quickly & is well worth it & service is usually quick & always has a smile.
This was my second time eating at Bossa, this time at a different location, & it was just as good as I remembered.
The breaded chicken sandwich is absolutely amazing - honestly one of the best I've ever had. The combination of flavors is spot on, & it has that comforting, homemade taste that makes it even better.
The staff is friendly, & the place itself is beautiful, with a nice market-style setup where you can also buy products, which adds a really unique touch.
Also, the olive oil cake is delicious & definitely worth trying.
Hands down the best sandwiches I've ever tried. I ate the porcetta & I recommend it. The staff is very nice, the only downside is there is a lot of people so order ahead of time
Place assez remplie, mais ça en vaut l'attente! Le sandwich du mois au Pâte à la vodka était assez incroyable quoi qu'un peu épicé à mon goût. Je recommanderais. Nous avons également pu essayer les desserts, le gâteau au fromage était délicieux. La tarte au pacanes très bonne, mais très gourmande. Elle serait vraiment bonne un peu plus mince! Nous y retournerons certainement! Belle adresse de Verdun

Bossa never disappoints! The food is incredible - definitely worth the drive & even the wait. The staff at this location are noticeably friendlier than other spots, which makes the experience even better. Highly recommend!
An institution in Montreal, if you're looking for great tasting sandwiches, Italian food, prepared goods & delicious desserts, this is the place. Generous portions & fresh ingredients, I really enjoy this small chain of restaurants. Staff are so friendly & service is quick. I highly recommend!
Delicious sandwiches & a must visit if you're in Montreal! It's a quick stop for lunch or a to-go order. The line may look long, but it moves very quickly. I recommend the chicken
Parmesan or Philly cheesesteak. Both are a classical take on the sandwiches & can be shared for two. For dessert, go for the tiramisu , again another classic version & served just right for two people to split. The coffee ice cream is a big hit too if you're a coffee fan or to try something new. Overall, it's a great stop for lunch & worth the detour.

My favorite place in Montreal for a good sandwich. Their sandwiches are simply delicious & are reasonably priced. Service is great as well. My favorites ones are the diavolo & the chicken parm. Definitely recommend Bossa if you are looking for a good sandwich.
I recommend the Cutlet 2.0. Great sandwich, reasonably fast service even when busy. Staff all have a good attitude & are very quick. Has very limited seating indoors & outdoors. Variety of food available but their sandwiches are the best.
Moi qui ne suis pas'sandwich' dans la vie, c'est une découverte en or. Je recommande à tout le monde! C'est un excellent rapport qualité quantité prix. Il faut souvent faire la file, mais ça vaut la peine (& la preuve que tout le monde est du même avis!)
Food is good, sandwiches tasty, but the wait is crazy. Victim of their success. They need more staff or more efficient people. Pre-made salades ok but too expensive for what it is. I recommend ordering online for pick-up.

Bossa on Wellington Street in Verdun is an absolute gem! The moment you walk in, you're greeted by the warmest, friendliest staff who make you feel right at home. The food? Incredible. From the first bite, you can tell everything is crafted with love & care. & the desserts? Simply divine! But the real star of the show is their chicken parm sub-it's hands down the best in Montreal! Perfectly cooked, bursting with flavor, & so satisfying, it's worth the trip alone. Highly recommend Bossa for anyone looking for amazing food, a cozy vibe, & top-notch service. This place has quickly become a favorite. Don't miss out!
Waouh gros coup de coeur pour cette sandwicherie! Nous y sommes allés un midi & avons pris 2 sandwichs, le poulet rôti & le saucisse ainsi que le bomboloni à la pistache. Quel délice!! Extra frais, bien remplis, on voit le fait maison. En plus pour un prix raisonnable. Ils vendent également des salades de pommes de terre, de pâtes ainsi que des salades vertes. Il y a aussi une section épicerie. Je recommande vivement!
