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.
Reviews about BOSSA Prêt à manger show a strong appreciation for big, flavorful Italian style sandwiches, with crowd favorites like porchetta, Milanese, steak pepperoni and diavolo noted for generous portions and fresh ingredients. However, consistency is a recurring issue, as some visits deliver excellent bread and toppings while others have bread that is stale, fillings that are sparse or sandwiches that arrive cold. Service quality is mixed as well, with many praising friendly, efficient counter staff but some reports of rude interactions or slow responsiveness during busy periods. Rush hour dynamics and the prioritization of Uber and DoorDash orders can lead to longer waits for customers ordering in person. A common health note requests avoiding canola oil in salads and switching to olive oil. Overall BOSSA Prêt à manger remains a standout for satisfying, generous sandwiches in Montreal, but visitors should brace for variability and occasional waits.
If you like large tasty sandwiches & don't mind long line ups this is the place for you. My son & husband love this food. I think the ingredients are high quality & the portions very generous but it's way too salty form me. The sandwiches are huge & the bread is a little tough so I wouldn't go there with small children.

À chaque visite chez Bossa, je ne suis jamais déçu. Les ingrédients sont toujours frais & savoureux. C'est vraiment dans mes restaurants préférés pour manger un sandwich à Montréal.
Wow ! J'ai clairement une nouvelle place préféré à Montréal. Les sandwichs de style Italian Deli sont délicieux. Le service est super sympathique & les produits suggérés sont magnifiques & savoureux. Je recommande fortement !

They fixed the issues with the bread, but there's still an inconsistency with the sandwiches depending on when you go & which one you order. As you can see in my picture, comparing the cheesesteak ($19) with the milanese ($17), the cheesesteak has barely any meat or toppings inside.

It used to be the best sandwich in town, but now the sandwiches aren't consistent. The last time we ordered it was really dry & barely anything in the sandwich. Also, the bread they used before was way better.
Je pensais que ce que j'aimais le plus du Bossa était leur sandwich surtout le steak pepperoni… mais j'ai goûter les pâtes fraîche & les les desserts & je crois que je préfère une combinaison de toute ces choses !
Having travelled to Italy a few times & being part Italian, I can say with certainty that this place lives up to the hype.
I travelled to Montreal with my family for a few days & on our way to our hotel we stopped by this place in great hunger.
As I ordered the Milanese sandwich in my broken French, the staff quickly switched to English, which was very kind. Moreover, they were quick & diligent with our food & we seriously enjoyed ourselves.
Come to this place when visiting Montreal or you're seriously dumb.
