Review Summary

Reviews describe Café Milano as a legendary and historic spot with an old school vibe and a reputation for great Italian sandwiches, cannolis, and espresso, plus strong value and a welcoming atmosphere that invites conversations and late night visits. The coffee and desserts are frequently praised, with several describing the café as a reliable place to meet up or grab a bite, and the sandwiches and cannolis often highlighted as standout items. The ambiance and a large terrace are noted positives, though some reviewers warn that the interior can be noisy or dim and that cleanliness needs attention, with one or two saying the place isn’t as fresh as in the past. Service is described as friendly and prompt at times, but other comments point to inconsistent experiences, long waits, or miscommunications during busy periods. Parking is occasionally mentioned as a challenge, but the overall sentiment remains affectionate, presenting Café Milano as a classic, comforting Italian cafe that draws visitors for coffee, paninis, and sweets despite the caveats.

Really not your average coffee shop, really crowded so a bit noisy(I felt), but overall great spot, hardworking staff, the service was quick, loved their coffee(specially mochaccino) & tried for the first time cannoli-> tasted amazing! I felt that the food(sandwiches) wasn't visually pleasing

I live for this place lol
They are open late & have a pretty simple but good menu.

The service is amazing the staff is very attentive & welcoming.
Always greet customers with a smile not ONE bad thing to say.

The food is very good. They serve salads, subs, desserts & coffees.

I always stick to the same thing it's a winner for me
The chicken salad is the best very fresh iceberg salad mixed with a balsamic dressing.

The cannolis are the best I've had anywhere like I have not found one place where they have better cannolis !!

Hot chocolate is very good as well

All around have never been disappointed there !!

Recommend to everyone
