A must try if you're remotely near Little Italy or Jean-Talon.
The products they serve like coffees, espresso's & cappuccino's are above average. But I think the overall atmosphere really plays into your tasting experience.
It's a must stop whenever my friends are in town, a great place to start your day or mid morning.
Last time I tried the sandwich without any expectations & it was great. The bread is toasted giving it a hard toasted outside but until you bite into it you feel the fluffy flavourful dough. The ingredients they use are fresh & top notch quality. The sandwich is nothing crazy but its simplicity & ratio of ingredients make it one of my favourite sandwich's I've had.
Caffè Italia has that perfect Italian café vibe. The smell of roasted beans, the people, & the energy make it feel like a real slice of Italy in Montreal. It is the place to be if you want true Italian espresso & atmosphere.
They only serve coffee, & it is excellent. The espresso is rich & smooth, & everything tastes fresh. They also have really good panini. We tried the turkey & the mortadella, & both were delicious & well made.
A classic & authentic spot worth visiting if you want real Italian coffee & a simple but great bite in Little Italy.
Great little spot in little Italy just popped in for a coffee before we went to the market across the street. Quick friendly service, definitely a local hangout.
Absolute the Best Coffee house outside of Europe. Everytime we visit Montreal this is a must stop for my wife & I. Such a great vibe at Caffe Italia. We just got back from Italy, Rome, Naples & Positano & this wonderful coffee shop could hold its own in any of those places. Besides the great coffees, they offer wonderful pastries & sandwiches. Their cannoli are simply amazing. Their croissants are also awesome. Try the Croissant Sarni.
But the coffees, oh the coffees are so amazing.
Can't wait to get back.

¡Qué rico el capuccino! Lo acompané de un cannoli.
Para turistas la zona quizá está un poco apartada, pero recomiendo encarecidamente venir a Little Italy para tener la pausa del café aquí, ver la bonita iglesia Notre-Dame-de-la-Defense y el animado Marché Jean-Talon.
A must when visiting little Italy , Caffé Italia is at the heart of it all. The Espresso or Cappuccino always amazing taste , so much so that we buy 3 bags a month for the house.. Meatball sandwich well…. Like nonna made it taste & tenderness..if it's on special menu of the day , go for it, they have it on ocassion only!
Step into Caffè Italia & you'll swear you've landed in the heart of Rome-without ever leaving Montreal! 🇮🇹☕ This legendary spot on St-Laurent has been serving up authentic Italian charm & the city's best coffee since 1956, & it's still the real deal.
From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by the warm buzz of locals chatting in Italian, the aroma of rich espresso, & the sight of regulars debating soccer or catching up over cappuccinos. The old-school vibe is unbeatable-think vintage photos on the walls, friendly staff, & a crowd that feels like family.
The cappuccino here is a must-try: perfectly creamy, topped with a sprinkle of cinnamon, & as close to Italy as you'll get in Montreal. Pair it with a fresh cannoli or a classic panini & you're set for a true Little Italy experience. Outdoor seating lets you soak up the neighborhood's energy, making it the perfect spot for people-watching or a relaxing break before hitting Jean-Talon Market.
If you love authentic flavors, genuine hospitality, & a slice of Montreal history, don't miss Caffè Italia. This is more than a café-it's a local institution, & every coffee lover should experience it at least once!
Great place for Italian coffees, excellent choices of sweets & delicious sandwiches. Everything is reasonably priced along with great service. I have been coming here most of my adult life. It's a true gem & landmark in little italy.
We stopped in on a suggestion from a friend who grew up in the area. Absolutely fantastic. We live in NYC & sadly these type of shops no longer exist in NYC little Italy. definitely has it's own vibe & isn't trying to be new or hip, just a delicious old school Italian coffeeshop. I'd drive back to Montreal just to come here again.

Paramos aquí durante nuestra caminata para recorrer y conocer Little Italy. Mi amigo se tomó un affogato y yo elegí un gelato. La atención fue magnífica, los precios razonables y aunque no teníamos suficiente hambre, creo que en otra ocasión no nos iremos sin probar sus sándwiches.
Cafeteria like in Italy 😍. Once I visited this place & there was soup, it was delicious, I've been there other times & I haven't found the soup 😔. I also tried the paninis which were very good & finally the coffee 👌🏼. The coffee here is very good. Customer service always good 👏🏻.
Great place for late night coffee. We went for a regular Coffee, Doppio & a Canoli. Later on, we also ordered a Hot Chocolate. The beverages were great. Strongest Americano I've ever had - almost an Espresso. Doppio was great. Loved the Hot Chocolate. Canoli was okay. The ambiance is great. Many seating options depending on whether you're alone, with friends, with spouse/gf or a big family. The walls have Italy all over which gives you a great vibe. Only one gentleman handling the entire place, from making beverages to serving at the table. Nice chap. Parking can be a bit challenging as there's street parking which can be full. We had to make two rounds around the block before we could find something. Definitely recommended.
One of the best places to get late night coffee in Montreal. Like having a cappucino in Italy, same atmosphere. Kind service, nice little dessert snacks, please do not ever close. Places like these restore my faith in humanity & provide me comfort. A true oasis that is a part of Montreal's cultural history.
