This café, a Little Italy institution, was sold recently. The new owners moved it to the adjoining space, which has been renovated with considerable success. The mosaic tile floor is stunning. In addition, this congenial neighbourhood meeting spot has expanded outdoor seating. Bravo!

Quel plaisir de s'arrêter à cette adresse iconique de la rue Dante. L'ambiance est vraiment chaleureuse avec ses murs décorés de fanions & de cadres qui témoignent de l'histoire du lieu.

J'ai savouré un délicieux croissant aux amandes, généreusement saupoudré de sucre glace, accompagné d'une boisson chaude. C'est l'endroit idéal pour faire une pause authentique à Montréal. Une expérience parfaite sur toute la ligne.

Walked in here at 9 on the dot, Monday morning. Not only was there already a lively crowd outside but a lineup inside as well. The service was super quick & efficient, but still friendly & warm. Coffee was excellent. This place is what every cafe should be.
