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.
Reviewers repeatedly praise Bossa for large, flavorful sandwiches made with high quality ingredients, from porchetta and chicken parmigiana to mortadella and cannoli, with many noting generous portions and a satisfying mix of textures. The menu's variety satisfies many tastes, including hot and cold options, and the desserts are frequently highlighted as standout treats. Service is described as fast and friendly, with attentive staff and cashiers who help with orders and recommendations, though a few notes mention long lines during peak hours and occasional slower experiences at certain locations. Overall, the experience is described as delicious, consistent, and great value for the price, with several mentions calling it among the best sandwich spots in Montreal. Some reviewers felt the hype was excessive or noted occasional grease or price concerns, and one review mentioned a past issue with dessert presentation, but most recall a warm, welcoming vibe and reliable quality across visits. In short, Bossa offers substantial, flavorful sandwiches and a positive, bustling atmosphere that attracts repeat visits.
Wildly overrated. I've heard a lot about this place for a while, even before they scored this downtown location. I never been to the original but I'm hoping its more worthwhile than this. They had one of the longest lines in the food court so the hype is very much alive. I can't figure out why people are so eager to pay $18 for these sandwiches. Don't get me wrong, they are very good- but $15.50 good at best. It's a big sandwich that will satisfy you, but we are talking like 3 ingredients. I'm sure they pride themselves on the quality of the ingredients but I couldn't taste the hype. Not even close to the best sandwich I've had, not even the best Italian sandwich I've had. Clarke Cafe kicks Bossa's ass any day of the week.
The people were friendly but my eggplant parm was terrible . It was unnecessarily greasy - an overflow of oil & very little flavor. The bread was greasy from the oil. The paper itself was turning yellow that they wrapped it in as well. I wasn't expecting a greasy mess. The salad drenched in vinegar overall both of us did not enjoy your food in fact, I felt rather ill for the entire evening, even though I did not finish my sandwich.
