Overall, Campanelli is described as a cozy, retro Italian cafe with consistently strong coffee and a standout vibe, with many reviewers calling it the best coffee in the city and praising lattes, iced mochas, chai, and a good hot chocolate, along with tasty pastries and sandwiches. The atmosphere is friendly and social, a draw for hanging out, though some note the layout changes can be confusing and seating can be uncomfortable, and wifi is not available. Service is usually warm and helpful, but a few experiences mention missteps or slow or incorrect drinks. Some menu items receive mixed feelings, such as a prosciutto bocconcini sandwich, while the pastries and cappuccinos receive frequent praise. Pricing is considered high by some compared to local competition, but many feel the coffee quality and welcoming environment justify it. Campanelli is viewed as a Saint Henri staple with a strong Italian cafe identity and a cozy, inviting space that appeals to regulars and newcomers alike.
We were on waiting list for Arthur nosh bar & we went to this beautiful italian coffeeshop, amazing coffee, I loved the taste of my flat white glass. Friendly staff. I will definitely will come back here. Highly recommended
Super café avec une ambiance chaleureuse & accueillante ! Le service de Gabriel est exceptionnel & le latte avec une touche de poudre de cacao est délicieux. Voir Tom & Jerry à la télévision m'a rendu nostalgique, un vrai retour en enfance. Je recommande vivement cet endroit !

Ordered a muffin, server literally didn't talk even though I asked questions lol, very confusing how cold she was. Owner seemed bothered to talk about sandwich bar while slowly restocking fridge with bottles. Sorry to have bothered, I won't again!
Endroit très agréable. Café simple mais de bonne qualité. Les viennoiseries faites maison sont excellentes. Je n'ai pas encore essayé leurs sandwichs mais ils semblent frais & généreux. Personnel très agréable. Je recommande vivement.
I've visited this coffee shop many times & usually receive good service. I appreciate that they occasionally offer vegan options for my partner, & the coffee itself is quite good. However, my recent experience was disappointing. When I asked if they had 10% cream, the barista seemed unwilling to check & gave a snarky response, which left a bad taste in my mouth. Considering how many coffee shops in Saint-Henri take a more friendly & considerate approach, especially when you're paying nearly $4 for a coffee, I'm not sure if I'll return..... J'ai visité ce café plusieurs fois & je reçois généralement un bon service. J'apprécie qu'ils offrent parfois des options végétaliennes pour mon partenaire, & le café lui-même est assez bon. Cependant, mon expérience récente a été décevante. Lorsque j'ai demandé s'ils avaient de la crème à 10 %, le barista semblait réticent à vérifier & a donné une réponse sarcastique, ce qui m'a laissé un mauvais goût dans la bouche. Compte tenu du nombre de cafés à Saint-Henri qui adoptent une approche plus amicale & prévenante, surtout lorsque vous payez près de 4 $ pour un café, je ne suis pas sûr de revenir.
There's a few coffee shops on the strip which I don't even bother with because Campanelli's not only has amazing coffee, the world's best muffins (go apple carrot!) but their staff are incredible. Kind. Helpful & warm. I think they speak like 6 languages each, are so helpful & somehow make you feel welcome while also being speedy (the other coffee shop next door is soooooooo slow & loud!). Campanelli's makes my days brighter ❤️
Amazing coffee, ambient, & the muffins are to die (live) for. I had the zucchini one, wonderful. I understand now the huge line outside every morning. Worth the wait! 🏆❤️🥐☕️
