Review Summary

Overall, Café Novanta is described as a warm, welcoming, family-run Italian cafe in Montreal where friendly service and a cozy vibe shine. The menu is praised for fresh, authentic Italian fare and pastries, especially the pistachio croissant, cappuccino, and espresso, with pizzas, paninis and desserts also getting a thumbs up. The atmosphere feels like home, making it a great spot to work, meet friends, or simply enjoy a relaxed coffee break, and the shop offers a range of Italian products on site. While espresso quality is noted as sometimes not meeting expectations, the overall experience is viewed as high quality coffee, delicious food, and a charming, genuine hospitality. Regulars keep returning for the warm staff and consistent goodness across the menu.

Warm, cozy, relaxing vibe. Ordered cappuccino & cake, & both were excellent. Super friendly staff. Owner sometimes hummed to the music. It felt like at a friend's.

Espresso quality wasn't what I was expecting for such a highly rated cafe! But maybe the food is what to go for. I only got a cappuccino.

I had an incredible experience at this café. The cappuccino was simply amazing-smooth with perfect consistency & a beautifully foamy top. The light dusting of chocolate was a nice touch that made it even better. The chocolate croissant was fresh & buttery, the perfect pairing with my coffee. I also loved the thoughtful gesture of being brought a glass of iced water alongside everything. One of the highlights was the unique & pleasant classical music playing inside. It really added to the cozy, relaxing atmosphere. Special shout-out to Alex, the nicest barista ever! Their service made the visit even more enjoyable. Highly recommend stopping by!
