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.
First visit, advertised as a sandwich/coffee shop, went to pick up some pastries for an evening BBQ invitation, & got a spicy chicken cutlet sandwich for lunch. Ummm...it was gross! The first few bites tasted like fish! I had to check the menu to see if they had fish sandwiches on the menu & maybe they had made a mistake, but no they don't. Yuck. Took it apart to double check if it was chicken, & in fact it was. But inedible! At 13.95+tax that's an expensive fail for a lunch sandwich. So unfortunate. Hopefully the pastries we are bringing for the BBQ will be a better hit.
What a great little cafe! The staff is super friendly, & the coffee is delicious, as is the raspberry-lemonade italian soda (a personal fave). The sandwiches are huge, fresh, & so full of flavour. I would definitely recommend visiting this cafe.
Nous avons commandé de la nourriture du menu traiteur pour notre compagnie, Le Petit Navire, & nous ne pourrions pas être plus satisfaits. La pizza était tout simplement sublime, très fraîche & succulente. La salade de pâtes était également excellente, avec des ingrédients de grande fraîcheur. Nos employés ont tous exprimé des commentaires très positifs lors de notre soirée sur la nourriture. Je recommande vivement le menu traiteur de Nonnina pour toute entreprise ! 5 étoiles bien méritées !

Normally the food is great but I don't think there pastries are made every day. Had the brownie today it was not fresh. For over 5$ a piece it should be ,so ask before you buy!
You need to try this place its the best food place in lachine!!!! The food always good quality the service is always fast always smilling with customers the pastry are just way too good ❤️
La nourriture est extraordinaire! Le staff est généralement convivial & chaleureux, sauf pour le jeune homme tatoué à la caisse qui a le pire air bête du monde entier. Il nous traite avec tellement d'impatience & de condescendance que j'évite d'y aller lorsqu'il est là. Dommage qu'il soit le premier contact que les gens ont avec cet excellent café/resto. Un autre point faible consiste au fait qu'on reçoit la nourriture & les breuvages à deux endroits différents, ce qui est compliqué & stressant quand la place est bondée. Le jeune homme en question a déjà perdu patience avec moi parce que je n'avais pas entendu mon nom quand ils m'ont appelé pour me donner mon café alors que c'était la cacophonie dans le resto...
I was the winner of there recent contest. The win was the highlight of my day. Your staff was so happy & treated us like giant winners. We enjoyed the meal so much a great reward for us.
