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.
I take it back . . . The Caesar salade is what's actually keeps me coming back. 🤌🏼 I had the Canoli Pistachio 🤌🏼
I see why people love their sandwiches 👍🏼
Just had the cutlet chicken spicy one , It all taste fresh.
You really got to have the ones the fit to your taste.
Hands down un des meilleurs sandwichs de ma vie, prenez le pain focaccia & vous ne le regretterez pas. Il n'y a pas que la nourriture qui est excellente, mais le service est WOW. J'ai oublié de dire que je voulais un pain specifique, perdu ma facture, bref j'ai rendue tout ça chaotique, jamais le serveur n'a perdue patience & a été très gentil! Les dessert & café glacé aussi sont débiles, bref vaut le détour!

J'aime énormément à chaque fois

Merci
Voici trois fois que nous y allons & tout est toujours exceptionnellement bon, dont les meilleurs arancini (pistache & pancetta, wow) & cannoli mangés de ce côté-ci de l'Atlantique! Sans parler de leurs deux belles terrasses à quelques pas du Canal Lachine. On a hâte d'y retourner!

Très bonne adresse pour de bonne pâtisseries & même des repas.
Grand ambiance agréable avec terrasse, personnel souriant.
En revanche bruyant, pas de wifi.
Prix correct.
Je recommande cette adresse on y passe un très bon moment & on ce régal.
The sandwiches are super good! I recommend the chicken & the sausage ones. Their cookies are amazing - especially the pistachio one!! There's usually a lineup, but it goes fast & you get your food quickly 🤩 💛🥳
Best. Since I discovered them while passing by Lachine had to come twice in three days, cause I felt the need to try all of their pastries. Soooo good! Definitely will go every time I'm in Lachine.
What a perfect lunch spot. I came here for lunch & had a salad & a piece of pizza. This place was bustling. Very lively & seems to be extremely popular. They have pizza, salads & an array of choices for dessert. There is coffee & gelato as well. Really a great place for a snack or a meal. There is something for everyone.
Visited from Ottawa.
I cannot believe this place doesn't have thousands of great reviews! We visiting on Easter Sunday for the first time & it did not disappoint. When a place is packed it's normally a good indication that the food is great & this place was busy! It was Easter so they had many pastry items that they probably don't carry year round but they had soooo many options. Everything looked so good, I wish I would have bought more! We tried their sandwiches, a few pastries & coffee/tea. We loved everything.
