Review Summary

Café Milano remains a legendary Montreal spot known for its old school atmosphere, strong espresso and pastries, and solid Italian sandwiches and cannolis. The room feels like stepping back in time, and many return for the friendly service, late hours, and reasonable prices for the area, with a big terrace and a bustling tone when busy. Some reviews note the recent renovations have doubled the size and given a modern cafe vibe, while others miss the former coziness and quote thinner portions and occasional dryness in the chicken cutlet sandwich, with dressing and salt sometimes not meeting memory. Cleanliness is uneven according to some, and while the coffee and cannolis are praised, the full dining experience can be hampered by noise, wait times for tables, and occasional inconsistencies. Still, Café Milano is often cited as a dependable place for a sandwich, coffee, and a chat with friends, and many say it offers good value and a classic taste of Montreal.

Staple neighbourhood café with excellent Italian coffee, desserts & sandwiches. Good for a quick bite or sit down with friends. I like both this location & their Laval location. It gets pretty busy & loud though.

I have eaten here in the past & so the sausage sandwich wasn't as good. It felt they had reheated rhe sausage. It was too dry. In fact the order came so fast it seemed bizarre to me that they had cooked it that fast. The larger table with about 10 sitting near us was so loud. It felt like it was a party of 30. It doesn't make talking with people at your table easy. The tables aren't cleaned so quickly either. I think the staff can do better. They are friendly & nice but they need to get to the table cleaning a bit faster.

Best place for a quick coffee grab or if you want to sit with your friends. Best thing that they have an extra seats available outdoor in summer so you can work on your computers or have a fresh tuna sandwich.

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
