Reviews describe Kahwa Café as a busy, cozy spot where fresh bread is baked on site and sandwiches like the chicken panko, lamb, merguez, kebab libre, falafel, and chicken parm are flavorful and well valued. Many praise the homemade bread, the tasty sauces, and the affordable prices, with takeout and an outdoor terrace helping when seating is tight. The vibe is lively and the service is described as friendly and efficient, though the dining area can feel small or loud. Long lines are common, but most testers feel the wait is worth the quality. A few notes mention occasional issues with cleanliness or consistency across locations, yet the bread and fillings receive constant compliments. Overall Kahwa Café is considered one of the top sandwich spots in Montreal, a reliable spot for a quick, satisfying lunch and a place many plan to return to to try more flavors.
Always nice to come here the sandwiches are really nice & fresh . The service is amazing I'm happy they are opening at Saint-cath bcz the other place is abit fa
Delicious 🤤
Last summer when we visited, it was a beautiful morning, & these sandwiches made this morning even better & one more reason to love this city.
These sandwiches come to my mind time to time, every thing is so fresh, the bread is hand made on site. The line was long, but service was fast!!
The sandwiches at this place are so delicious that I ate here twice during my first visit to Montreal!
The inside is somewhat small for dining in, but it's still a cozy atmosphere. Besides, sandwiches are easy enough to grab & go, so the small dining area isn't much of a setback at all.
Terrific place! Will definitely eat here again on my next visit!

For sure some of the best sandwiches in mtl! Inventive, yummy & flavourful.
Sauce is so original & can't get enough.
Homemade bread, filling portions, not expensive, no wonder there's always people.
They have a coffee bar & few seats inside. Terrasse in summer offers more space.

The tastiest bread in town! Every bite of their sandwiches is pure happiness (I tried both the panko chicken & falafel sandwiches)
However, traffic inside is a bit chaotic as there's no clear waiting line.
The vibe was spotless, so was the playlist. Highly recommend the chicken, lamb or Italian sandwiches. Can't wait to go back & try the falafel & mergez ones. Honestly this spot is a 10/10 & decently priced too!!
Love their sandwiches. We went there for a brunch at 11am on Sunday & the place was almost empty but it quickly filled up. I had the falafel sandwich. Service is fast. Their cortado & coffee are excellent.
one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. I got the pulled lamb & beef one, added some harissa. bread was fresh, ingredients were fresh & the staff was lovely. cured my hangover that day for sure lol
In terms of value for money, this is definitely one of the best sandwich spots in Montreal. Their menu offers something for everyone, although I think their classic panko chicken sandwich is their best option. The staff are always quick & efficient, despite the lines, which just goes to show how popular this place is. For fans of high-quality sandwiches.
