Overall, Kahwa Cafe is praised for fresh house made bread and flavorful sandwiches such as chicken panko, kebab, merguez, tuna and falafel, with sauces that are generally well balanced and fillings that are often generous. The bread is a standout, frequently described as delicious and add extra texture to the sandwiches, and portions are repeatedly noted as large and good value. The atmosphere is cozy and the staff friendly, with several reviewers calling the service quick and attentive, though a few mention occasional slow or disorganized moments and occasional order mix ups. The coffee is sometimes described as average, but the food experience remains strong and many say the sandwiches are among the best in Montreal, with the Verdun location seen as a welcome addition and late hours a plus. While a few critiques point to too much sauce or requests not fully followed, the general sentiment is positive, highlighting fresh ingredients, great flavor combinations, and a reliable quick bite that keeps customers coming back.
The staff very professional! The lady in the cash super professional, the baker guy very fast & the prep guy so so focused! Really good coordination & the food very tasty!.
Toujours aussi bon avec leur pain frais, avec un super service rapide & une belle ambiance!! Plus spacieux que les autres kahwa pour les amateurs & reellement se poser avec un bon café.
Endroit vraiment exceptionnelle, staff ultra gentil, service super rapide, & la bouffe est excellente. Très frais, avec des bons ingrédients, pour ma première fois a ce café j'adore j'y retournerai c'est sû
Sandwichs de grande qualité, vraiment savoureux. On sent que les ingrédients sont frais & bien préparés. La vendeuse était incroyable : gentille, souriante & pleine d'énergie, ça fait vraiment plaisir d'être accueilli comme ça. La cuisine est aussi très propre, ce qui met en confiance. Une très belle expérience !
Le sandwich poulet Panko, & celui au thon sont très bons, je les prends régulièrement. Le pain fait minute est vraiment bon & apporte un plus à ces sandwichs.
La sauce est bien dosée.
Par contre, avoir des frites maisons serait un vrai plus parce qu'elles ne sont vraiment pas bonnes & chères pour ce que c'est.
This was my first time at kahwa cafe. The atmosphere was cozy, warm, & charming. The staff were friendly & had a great attitude. The sandwich was delicious,tasty, a little spicy, which was totally fine for me. The portion size could've been a bit bigger. Their coffee was just average. When we went, the cafe was completely empty, & it would've been much better if they had brought the food & coffee to the table instead of us having to go pick them up. But overall, it was a good spot for a light & spicy meal.

Was very impressed by their sandwhiches. We tried the chicken panko & the kebab one. There were a lot of meat & it was super flavorful. The bread was very crunchy & nice. Would definitely come again.
