BOSSA Prêt à manger est largement reconnu comme l'une des destinations incontournables pour les sandwichs de style italien à Montréal, souvent loué pour ses portions généreuses, ses ingrédients de haute qualité et ses saveurs authentiques. Bien que de nombreux clients considèrent ces sandwichs comme étant parmi les meilleurs en ville, l'immense popularité de l'établissement entraîne souvent une forte affluence, un espace restreint et de longs délais d'attente pendant les heures de pointe. Il est fréquemment conseillé de commander en ligne ou par téléphone à l'avance pour éviter ces désagréments. Malgré quelques variations occasionnelles dans la préparation ou la rapidité du service, le consensus global demeure très positif, de nombreux visiteurs soulignant l'accueil chaleureux du personnel, l'ambiance conviviale et l'excellente sélection de produits importés et de desserts comme autant de raisons d'y revenir.
We've always loved going to Bossa for their sandwiches! The ingredients are fresh, the portions are generous, & every sandwich is packed with flavor. There's often a long line, but it moves quickly & is always worth the wait. The staff are friendly & it's one of those places we find ourselves coming back to again & again. Easily one of our favourite sandwich spots in Montreal!
Tried this place for the first time on Saturday & the food was honestly really good no complaints there at all. The sandwiches were fresh & definitely worth the visit.
The only thing I noticed, coming from a store management background, is that the front entrance area gets extremely crowded. Since everyone waits near the door for their orders, it becomes hard to tell where the actual line starts for ordering, which can be a bit confusing for first-time customers.
I also noticed that most employees stay behind the counter, so the front area isn't really being monitored. With how busy it gets, it seems like it could make theft much easier 😵?💫.
Walked in at 12:20 on a Sunday afternoon. It was a fullhouse with people dining-in & also many waiting in line to place their orders. FYI: I am not the most patient person & I don't usually do line-ups, but I decided to relax & give this joint a chance. I was out the door within 15 minutes of walking in, which (in my opinion) is acceptable.
Place seems clean at first glance.
Employees seem too work well together although the preparation section is chaotic (keep in kind that I visited during lunch).
Many pastas, salads, & sauces can be purchased from their refridgerated sections. Prices are... ok.
As expected, sandwiches were messy & oily but that's how you know it was done right. No shortage of toppings either as the two sandwiches I ordered were stuffed with fresh ingredients. Prices were reasonable ($17/sandwich).
Location can be difficult to find & parking can be a real PITA, although I still prefer this location than the one in Verdun (the Verdun location gives me a bad vibe).
I've been to Bossa many times, & they never disappoint. This visit, I went with the Italiano, & it was incredible. It's absolutely stuffed with high-quality prosciutto & mortadella, fresh crispy lettuce, & their signature pickled olives which add the perfect tangy kick. Every bite is fresh & packed with flavor.
The vibe of the shop is just as good as the food. It feels like a true neighborhood gem-super cozy & charming, filled with imported Italian goods, pastas, & great coffee. It's always buzzing with energy, which makes the whole experience feel authentic. If you're looking for the best sandwiches in Montreal, this is definitely the place!
Pro tip: Grab a cannoli or a Bomboloni on your way out-you won't regret it.
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!
These must be the best Italian sandwiches in Montreal. Huge & absolutely delicious, every time. My favourites are the pochette & the chicken parm… definitely get them pressed! The shop has a great selection of sauces, fresh & dried pastas, & other specialty foods & a few wines as well.
