The entire staff of Milano's Laval are very warm & welcoming! They treat everyone here like family & friends. Amazing food- as always. The eggplants are my absolute favorite!
Love their sandwiches & cheesecake with blueberries at the top .

Good casual food, but one of the waiters literally tossed the basket of fries that we had ordered across my girlfriend's shoulder & threw it onto the table for no reason. Some fries fell out of the basket & onto my girlfriend's top/lap. The waiter clearly saw what had happened yet showed total indifference, not even a hint of acknowledgement of the situation. He just ignored us & went back to the kitchen. Our entire table was surprised at the lack of professionalism. Please be careful next time.
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!
Thanks to a wonderful couple/special friends, I received a very generous gift card yesterday for my 60th birthday. We discovered a new place (for us) which opened 5 years ago🙂
Everything we ordered (take out) was super delicious 😋 I highly recommend trying this place once; guaranteed you will go back again & again.
Service was super fast, prices are reasonable especially for what you get & the young man (part owner) is so friendly too.
The BOMBA are the bomb. Better than the best doughnut. Crunchy delicious dough. Amazing filling. We preferred the custard filling but the chocolate was really, really good. Excellent cannoli. Delicious shell & amazing filling. The Milano sandwich is also delicious. Great filling. The macaroni & cheese bites are very good. Excellent fries. Fast & efficient service. Very busy place.

I recently visited Cafe Milano on St-Martin Boulevard in Laval for the first time to meet some friends, The cafe was completely packed, yet the service was relatively quick. The food was pretty good & the prices were very reasonable. However, parking was a bit of a headache. Additionally, the cafe can be noisy, which might not be ideal if you're looking for a quiet setting.Overall, Cafe Milano is a great choice for casual outing.
I have recently visited this cafe, lots of people there. The vibe is very good. People around until late mid night. The staff there are super friendly!

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 :)
Amazing vibes. Great place for late night coffee & food. We went for a Hot Chocolate, Mochaccino, a Tiramisu & a regular Poutine. Loved them all. The staff is great & friendly. They have table service once you order at the register. It was fairly quick. Parking can be a challenge since there are limited spots & there was a rush even late at night. Definitely recommended!!
