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.
Sandwich délicieux, le pain est excellent! Le service etait super rapide aussi.
La salle à manger est ordinaire & c'est très achalandé (comme ils sont populaires).

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!
All signs pointed to good! There was a line of people waiting to order, eat at a table or taking a take out bag. The staff were so personable. I loved my moccacino that I got to sip while waiting for my falafel sandwich & lentil soup. & it was priced at a consumer friendly price point in addition to delicious flavorful food.
Not a sandwich person. So if I say it's good. It's really good 😊. I Was having a good day but this sandwich just made my day better. Bread was warm & freshly made. I had the kebab sandwich. Portion is huge & taste is just perfect. My second visit in two days. Please stop by!!!
J'ai essayé à plusieurs reprises le Kahwa café pour leur délicieux sandwichs & j'y retournerai encore! Ils sont tellement délicieux & cela explique les fils d'attente que je voyais souvent en passant devant. Le pain frais & les ingrédients bien apprêtés font toute la différence. Autant le sandwich poulet frit que à l'agneau sont tellement goûteux. La sauce à l'intérieur apporte aussi beaucoup de goût. Je recommande. Toutefois, ce n'est pas la place la plus conviviale pour y manger, mais parfaite pour le take out!
Hi first off there were lot of students, gave a nice vibe. It's a nice cozy cafe. The chicken sandwich was very good & quiet filling.
I couldn't finish it as it was huge. The trio was worth it. The fries tasted differently, but it could be maybe because of the type of flour they use to coat their fries.
Overall must visit spot. Next time I need to try their coffee
