BOSSA Prêt à manger is widely regarded as one of the premier destinations for Italian-style sandwiches in Montreal, frequently praised for generous portions, high-quality ingredients, and authentic flavors. While many patrons consider the sandwiches to be among the best in the city, the restaurant's immense popularity often leads to significant crowds, cramped conditions, and long wait times during peak hours. Customers frequently suggest ordering online or by phone in advance to bypass these inconveniences. Although the experience is occasionally impacted by inconsistencies in preparation or service speed, the overall consensus remains highly positive, with many visitors highlighting the friendly staff, the welcoming atmosphere, and the excellent selection of imported goods and desserts as reasons to return.
Incredible sandwhiches - the sandwhich of the month (July) VDKA Parm was stellar! Can we a long wait for a walk in at times, I recommend ordering in advance for pickup & then its seamless
Whenever I walk into Bossa it's always so crowded, but not the kind that makes you feel like the atmosphere is stuffy & uncomfortable. No, it feels like a nice family reunion, those where you just can't wait for the food to be served, where everyone carries a smile & a certain joie de vivre & you know you'll go back home feeling full of joy, but definitely also full from the delicious food.
This time around, we got a Philly & the sandwich of the month (which is something I highly recommend people to try, no matter the month). The granita is also to die for, it's so perfect, cool, not to sweet or sour, just perfect for a hot summer day.
The staff were super nice & always willing to help, recommending those who didn't know what to pick chose a perfect sandwich for them. The guy with the two stud earrings was particularly thoughtful. When I asked for a bag, he offered the pack the sandwiches along with the other things I was carrying, so thank you!??If you go, please get the sandwich of the month & a granita, I promise won't regret it.

✨Personnellement, je ne recommande pas de vous rendre chez Bossa Wellington pour commander sur place si vous êtes pressé. Lors de ma visite, j'ai attendu environ 25 minutes pour recevoir mon sandwich.
Il y avait énormément de clients & l'espace était très encombré. Je me suis senti à l'étroit, avec beaucoup de monde autour de moi & peu de gestion de la file d'attente.
Les produits sont excellents & les sandwichs sont délicieux, mais attendre 25 minutes dans la chaleur & dans une foule aussi dense n'a pas rendu l'expérience agréable.
À mon avis, la meilleure option est de commander à l'avance par téléphone ou en ligne, puis de passer récupérer sa commande. Si l'attente ne vous dérange pas, vous serez sans doute satisfait. Sinon, commandez d'avance pour éviter les inconvénients🥖✨
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
