Nonnina comes through in these reviews as a cozy, welcoming Italian spot in Lachine with a bakery like pastry counter, fast service, and a lively but friendly vibe. The menu earns high marks for generous, fresh sandwiches such as porchetta and Italian meats, with the spicy chicken sandwich a longtime favorite though some readers note the chicken cutlets have grown thicker and chewier. A broad pastry selection including cannoli, pistachio cannolis, tiramisu, and zeppole is consistently praised, as are the coffee and espresso drinks which many describe as excellent, even if a few note variability. Desserts and coffees pair well with a wide range of Italian baked goods, and the pastries are described as outstanding and reliably delicious. The staff are repeatedly praised for warmth, attentiveness, and efficient service, contributing to a familial cafe vibe and a strong sense of community, though it can be busy or noisy at peak times. Overall it is regarded as a must visit neighborhood gem with substantial sandwiches, superb bakery items, and a welcoming atmosphere.
Hands down the best Zepole around. Filling is delicious & the dough has a perfect texture. The sandwiches are decent. Tasty, but I find the bread is a little bit tough. Portion is good. Lobster tails are a must try. Prices for some of the items a bit steep in my opinion compared to some other Italian bakeries in Montreal. I'll be back next year for zepole again!
Very nice looking restaurant, not particularly spacious but enough space & very clean. Love the overall visual aesthetic of the place. Order system with beeper numbers is really convenient. Staff all seems really friendly, helpful, & respectful.
Great food, mostly sandwiches but a good variety plus delicious pizzas & sides.
Wide assortment of snacks & pastries, all of which look amazing & the few I've tried were delicious.
There's a little side area that serves up drinks, like iced lattes & various coffees.
Very well located place with parking around the area, cozy decoration, good ambiance, very busy, delicious sandwiches, fresh, tasty, also a wide variety of desserts, totally recommended spot in Lachine!
Had lunch here & everything was just really good. The sandwiches were super fresh, packed with plenty of meat & veggies, & the bread was perfect. The fries were crispy & addictive & the salad was very fresh!
It's simple food done really well, & you can taste the quality. Definitely a spot I'll come back to.

We drive in every now & then from Pierrefonds because this place is just so good. The coffee, the pizza & especially the sandwiches. Kids love it every time as well which is a huge bonus & the atmosphere is great as well with the family.
PACKED on a Sunday. They have a great system so you can get your drinks fast then the food when its ready with a pager. Absolutely fantastic food, Italian delights of exceptional superiority. Probably the best Italian sandwiches on the island. ILL BE BACK!

Excellent sandwich shop. Nice variety of fresh sandwiches, sides & desserts. Coffee bar is great. Shop is trendy looking & very clean. Outdoor seating available in the summer. Located next to the flower market in Lachine. Highly recommend.
I stopped by this spot for lunch & desserts, & everything was fantastic! The sandwiches were fresh, packed with flavor. The pastries were equally amazing. The oat bar was a nice balance of sweet & hearty. Friendly service & a cozy vibe made the experience even better. Definitely a place I'll be coming back to!
Wonderful restaurant! Food is absolutely tasty. Usually, these restaurants make sandwiches that drip with sauce & fall apart to say'so many flavours' but Nonnina doesn't need to do that, it's a real sandwhich with all the flavours & no mess. Highly recommend
Far & away one of the best hidden gems in Montreal. The food is always fresh & incredibly delicious. I'm a big fan of the sandwiches & would put them up there with the best in Montreal (Marchigiani for example). The coffee is very underrated & I always recommend getting one when you stop by. Finally the bakery itself, absolutely incredible!! Try the donuts, the bread, the pizza, eclairs, fruit tart it's all 🔥
During the week or on the weekend it's a must stop, chill in old Lachine with insanely good food… can't go wrong.

We ordered through Uber eats. Ordered 2 panini sandwiches & the parmesan truffle fries. Everything was delicious & prices were quite reasonable. Will have to try the sandwiches on focaccia next time (extra $3/sandwich).
A hidden gem in Lachine! The vibe inside it feels like you are in a little busy cafe in Italy, staff is very lovely & you can also buy some of the local italian products.
Their sandwiches are excellent & the pastries are to die for! Highly recommend getting an afogato on a hot day especially since they also make their own gelato.
Their cakes are also very good, very light & not too heavy, call 1-2 days in advance if you want to order a specific whole cake for a celebration.
Highly recommend their cannoli cake, their pistachio cannolis, their almond flour pistachio cookies & the proscuitto sandwich to name a few!
Catered a 30th birthday party from Nonnina's & was not disappointed. Great selection of party food to choose from. Price matched the quality & quantity of food ordered. Sandwiches & pastries were fresh & delicious right down to each last bite. Eaten at Nonnina's many times as well & always delicious, great service & atmosphere for a smaller space!
