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 Prêt à manger is described by reviewers as offering some of the best Italian sandwiches in Montreal and Verdun, with huge, generously filled subs that showcase high quality ingredients like prosciutto, mortadella, porchetta and chicken parm, and desserts such as cannoli and bomboloni that many crave. The vibe is authentic and neighborhood, with a friendly and efficient staff that helps despite the place being crowded and fast paced. Long lines and limited seating are common, and wait times can be noticeable during peaks or for takeout, though many think the payoff is worth it. Bread quality is frequently praised, though a few reviews note inconsistencies or changes over time. In addition to sandwiches, the shop’s Italian groceries and prepared items add to the appeal. Overall, BOSSA Prêt à manger is viewed as a must visit for substantial, tasty sandwiches and a lively, welcoming atmosphere, even if the crowds and occasional service hiccups temper the experience.
Loved the chicken parm & cheese steak sandwiches. The tiramisu is very good as well. I just wasn't a huge fan of the cheese arancini but everything else was good.
Les sandwiches du Bossa sont à essayer au moins une fois dans sa vie !! C'est incroyablement délicieux ! Le lieu est un peu petit donc ce n'est pas facile de manger sur place.

Everything is consistently well done. Never dissatisfied. **Edit** over a year later, & everything is still amazing at Bossa. Special shout out to Zoey for such a great customer service. We love you guys at Bossa!
Unacceptable.
I ordered a pickup of three sandwiches, arrived home & the chicken parm was raw, literally raw.
I emailed your store to not post on a Google review, but with no response I decided to leave my review.
Thanks for listening.

I would like to edit my review.
Shortly after my posting my review, who I believe is the owner, reached out to me. He apologized for the incident, explained that they were truly sorry & made sure that his team was aware of the situation. I've deceived to alter my review to a 5 star, because we go to restaurants for two reasons, one is obviously for the food, & a close runner up is for the customer service….& it is clear that Bossa delivered the latter.
Given all of this, we will definitely be returning to Bossa & giving them another try!

Place assez remplie, mais ça en vaut l'attente! Le sandwich du mois au Pâte à la vodka était assez incroyable quoi qu'un peu épicé à mon goût. Je recommanderais. Nous avons également pu essayer les desserts, le gâteau au fromage était délicieux. La tarte au pacanes très bonne, mais très gourmande. Elle serait vraiment bonne un peu plus mince! Nous y retournerons certainement! Belle adresse de Verdun
