Plein de choix de desserts, wow ! J'ai mangé le meilleur tiramisu de ma vie 🤍 Il se mangeait tout seul, super léger, comme un nuage. Un pur délice, je le recommande sans hésiter .

Great café with a wide selection of coffee & desserts. Everything tastes fresh & well made. The cozy atmosphere makes it a perfect place to relax & enjoy a sweet treat with a cup of coffee.
A great wide pleasant coffee shop, with a lot to offer! A cute terasse, great variety of desserts/pastries & even sandwiches & salty treats. The place is huge, great to chill in a group or work alone. Service was excellent!
Café Milano in Laval is the perfect cozy spot to satisfy your sweet cravings! I tried their hot chocolate & it was absolutely divine - rich, velvety, & perfectly warming. You can tell it's made with care & high-quality chocolate, not the usual powdered mix.
But the real showstopper was their Ferrero Rocher cake - WOW! It was beautifully presented & tasted even better than it looked. Layers of moist chocolate cake, creamy hazelnut filling, & that signature crunch made every bite feel luxurious. It's a must-try for any dessert lover!
The ambiance is stylish yet relaxed, & the staff were kind & attentive. Whether you're catching up with friends or just need a treat-yourself moment, Café Milano Laval delivers every time. Can't wait to go back!
Excellent food. Excellent service. Great vibe. Tons of parking. We love coming here. The coffee & desserts are amazing. The sandwiches also did not disappoint. We'll be back ☺?

We were visiting Montreal for an engineering meeting. Based on the number of reviews & stars, we decided to go there after dinner for coffee & dessert 🍨. The experience was not good from the beginning to the end. 1. It's very noisy & the tables are very close to each other. 2. When the visa machine did not work for the first time, I got confused & stressed & forgot to leave a tip. Oh my God, the bad & elongated look on his eyes & follow-up talk from the casher left me speechless. 3. To receive the order, the waitress walks between the tables & says the customrs name to deliver the order. This interrupted our chat almost with every yelling 😂 or couple of minutes. 3. When we raised the concern with the manager/supervisor, he was rude & rude at every turn. We left & never will be back to this cafe. This is a monthly meeting & they lost us for good.
The coffees & desserts are great. The food is nothing special. I have tried all the subs. The bread they use seems low quality & lacks proper texture or flavour. The ingredients are sparse. I never enjoyed their subs. Much better options out there. This business does well because of regular clients that go there to hang out, enjoy a coffee, a nice dessert, or tolerate below average food. It's a cool hangout.
Went for lunch today, ordering process took a while, I guess it was noisy. I was with 2 friends, we ordered our sandwiches, fries & they ordered coffee & desserts. We sat outside in the terrace. Within 5 minutes my friends' coffee & desserts arrived, odd? Within 15 minutes our sandwiches & drinks arrived, but no fries - we mentioned it to the server who said "no problem, coming soon" . We waited close to 20 minutes & asked another server for the fries (our sandwiches were eaten), server went inside, then back to us & said we didn't pay for them, but they will be out soon & we would need to pay inside. We waited another 15 minutes & my friend went inside to ask why we were waiting - seems my friend had to pay before being served the fries. Bottom line, the food was very good, service was friendly, but they seem to be a little dis-organized - Our 30 minute lunch break turned into over an hour. BTW, we arrived near 1:30 PM. Yes, I will go back, but I will be very specific when ordering! LOL. :)
This is a very lively cafe! They have a nice selection of desserts (highly recommend their cannolis 😍). Their grilled chicken sandwich is good, as well as their lattes. If you're planning on dining in, there is a chance that you may have to wait for a table as it can get crowded. Even on a Tuesday night there was a lineup of people & several of them were waiting for tables. Despite this, the service is very quick as there's a lot of staff. I would say it's not the best place to study as it can get loud (unless you have noise cancelling headphones hihi). Overall, it's a great place to visit if you wanna grab a coffee with some friends/family :)
