Stopped by for something to cool off on the summer, staff were sweet, the iced tea is perfect & the cannoli are to die for. Really decent pricing too.

I tried a cannoli... then I bought all they had left (6). They make excellent cannoli. The place was busy at lunchtime, but the service was fast.

Caffè Gentile, a breeze of Sicily, with the best cannoli & biscotti in Montreal! ?🏽�😋��
It's always such a pleasure, everytime I can go! Their latte is definitely one of the best too!

*♿?Note that the location on duParc is not accessible (about 6 steps of stairs) but they have tables outside, & they'll come serve you. Come on a sunny day, & enjoy your Me time! 🤗�☕?🥐
