Review Summary

Reviews describe Caffè Italia as a beloved, old school Italian cafe with a warm neighborhood vibe and a standout coffee program. The cappuccino and other espressos are repeatedly praised for balance and crema, with many saying it is among the best in the city. Cannoli, biscotti and fresh pastries pair well with drinks, and the panini and croissants are also highly recommended. The atmosphere is described as authentic and inviting, with lingering aromas of roasted beans and a sense of being in a traditional Italian cafe. Service is usually fast and friendly, though peak times can bring longer waits. The place is regarded as a local institution and a must visit for true Italian coffee and atmosphere, offering good value without sacrificing quality. While a few notes mention uneven service on busy days, the overall sentiment highlights top quality coffee, delicious treats, and a nostalgic, old world charm.

Super tasty cappuccino & sandwiches that come with prosciutto. Affordable prices & best of all, it has AC inside on a sunny day.

The best cappuccino in Montreal! This is a great authentic Italian neighbourhood cafe that serves great coffee & sandwiches. The fresh squeezed orange juice is spectacular. Even their simple toast is amazing. Try the prosciutto sandwich!

A traditional Italian coffee, there is nothing more to say. 🤗 The atmosphere is friendly & lively, the service is excellent & the drinks delicious, the black coffee a little strong but the cappuccino was simply amazing. We ordered a mocha too, incredible experience

I had a lot of expectations to find finally a spot to fill my italian needs as in talking in italian & have a nice cappuccino & cornetto, as the reviews were positive about em. Was very highly disappointed with the barman that had a very broken italian & couldn't hold a conversation. The cappuccino was so badly made, too much coffee & the milk was all bubbly, I would recommend for the barman to learn on how to prepare the milk for the cappuccino as many other italians might get baited from the name of the place. The cornetto (crossaint) was supposed to be 'ripieno' but clearly the staff needs also a vocabulary, as the crossaint gives only had some bits of chocolate inside.
We also had "cheese toast". The ingredients were: toasted bread & cheese. Just no.

Per tutti gli italiani evitate se cercate un cappuccino dove può farvi ricordare del bel paese. Senza contare ai prezzi esorbitanti. Una vergogna, quasi al livello dell'Italia che non arriva ai mondiali per due volte di fila. Alla ricerca di un altro bar per avere la mia necessità di italiano in Montréal.

Ce café italien à Montréal est une véritable pépite qui m'a enchanté à tous les niveaux. Dès que je suis entré, l'arôme envoûtant du café fraîchement moulu m'a transporté directement dans les rues animées de l'Italie. La qualité du café est tout simplement exceptionnelle. Chaque gorgée de leur expresso était une explosion de saveurs riches & complexes, démontrant leur maîtrise de l'art du café italien.

Les produits proposés dans ce café sont un véritable festin pour les sens. Les pâtisseries fraîches & les douceurs sucrées m'ont donné l'impression de me trouver dans une authentique caféterie italienne. Les ingrédients de première qualité sont clairement une priorité, & cela se reflète dans chaque bouchée délectable.

L'ambiance du café est chaleureuse & invitante. La décoration rappelle les cafés traditionnels d'Italie, avec des accents rustiques & une attention aux détails qui créent une atmosphère accueillante. Le personnel est amical & passionné par ce qu'ils servent, ce qui ajoute une touche personnelle à l'expérience.

Que vous souhaitiez savourer un cappuccino velouté, un expresso corsé ou simplement vous détendre avec une pâtisserie exquise, ce café italien répondra à toutes vos envies. Pour les amateurs de café comme moi, c'est un paradis absolu. Chaque aspect, de la qualité du café aux délices sucrés en passant par l'ambiance, reflète l'amour & la dévotion pour l'authentique expérience du café italien. Une visite à ce café est un voyage instantané en Italie sans quitter Montréal.
