Review Summary

Cafe Gentile offers a cozy cafe with a warm atmosphere, fresh and delicious food, and exceptional service. Great coffee and a wide selection of sandwiches define the experience. The old school Italian neighborhood vibe feels nostalgic, with fresh baked goods and dairy free milk options. Service is fast and friendly, with a welcoming family run energy. The menu features Italian inspired items and crowd favorites, including a Nutella dessert and a spicy Philly steak wrap as well as other satisfying sandwiches. It is regarded as a Montreal staple and a popular lunch spot, often busy but still comfortable. The cafe is praised for quality ingredients, a homey atmosphere, and the energy that makes it a favorite for locals and visitors alike. Seasonal closure from July to August is noted.
