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 is widely praised for huge, generously packed Italian style sandwiches made to order with high quality ingredients, with many calling it the best in Montreal and nearby areas. Standouts include porchetta, diavolo, chicken parm and a rich array of fillings, and desserts such as tiramisu, cannoli and olive oil cake are highlighted as excellent. Portions are often described as so generous they can feed two, and the overall vibe is a lively, authentic deli with Italian groceries, great coffee and a friendly team. However long waits during peak hours and limited seating are common, and some reviews note occasional bread inconsistencies or a recent bread change before returning to form. A few isolated ordering hiccups are addressed by responsive staff and even owner intervention, leaving many satisfied and willing to return. The experience is considered worth the detour and the drive, with takeout and dine-in both recommended for a reliable, delicious sandwich fix.
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!
December Sandwich of the Month Review
5 Stars automatically for having a legendary menu selection but lets get critical with the French Dip review.
7.2 Rating
Probably a 7.7 in person with the delivery sog factor eliminated.
There was a particular spice in the au jus that didn't do it for me.
Decent amount of meat but would probably double the cheese & pop it in the salamander for a good cheese pull potential.
Bossa bread is fantastic in general, but for this December special we needed a stronger crisp factor.
Overall one of the better roast beef dips I've had recently.

Sandwich du moment délicieux #frenchdip.
J'aurais aimé plus de dip 😅
J'ai également essayé les pâtes fraîches à la maison & ma fille était ravie.
Bien hâte de goûter à la lasagne que j'ai cachée dans mon congélo.
Un samedi après-midi, il faut s'armer de patience, l'attente en valait la peine, c'était très bon. Sandwich qui peut faire pour 2 personnes facilement :) pas de photo, tout mangé!
Bon bomboloni, très frais & crème de qualité, j'aurais toutefois pris plus garniture étant honnête & gourmande. Zoom in pour le menu ;)
Been there consistently but they need to do a major, major change before I stop going.
If I order on the phone & you tell me 20 min, prepare it in that time, or give me the right time.
I don't mind the food not being prepared super quick, but I hate having my time wasted because you can't schedule your cooking time. Tell me a time, however long, & stop wasting mine.
That has happened the last 3 time I've been.

I've never been disappointed by the spot. Probably the best sandwich I've had in Verdun. I'm obsessed with the prosciutto sandwich with eggplant added 🫰
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!
Played at a grad in Verdun & discovered BOSSA. The sandwiches were incredible. So much so that this school I played at swears by them. I am going straight over there one day for some food stuffs, & I can't wait! SEE YOU SOON…. EDIT: fast forward to 2025. This place is very very very popular. & very busy. Call in your orders before coming over. ☎?
C'était délicieux , j'ai tout aimé de mon expérience . Sandwich très bien garnies avec des aliments de qualités. Savoureux . On a été servie assez rapidement malgré la file a l'intérieur. Le personnel est super sympathique. Malgré qu'il manque de place assise à l'intérieur, nous avons réussis à se trouver une place . Nous avons même ramener un bon pot de sauce Bolognaise à la maison , salade pour nos lunch le lendemain, épicerie sur place . Pleins de bons produits . C'est maintenant un incontournable pour nous lorsque nous serons en visite à Montréal. Je vote pour un Bossa à Québec 😍
Les photos ne rendent pas justice ahaha c'était trop bon , nous avions déjà entamée avant que je décide de prendre une photo ahah cest vraiment de très grosse portion .
J'ai commandé de très nombreuses fois chez eux, au minimum une fois toutes les deux semaines depuis plus de deux ans, & tout est parfait: les sandwichs, les desserts, l'épicerie, leur genre de slush au café & au citron. Je n'ai jamais eu un sandwich raté en deux ans, les prix sont de manière générale très correcte au vu de la qualité exceptionnelle.
