At Parma Café, the spirit of Italy meets the vibrancy of a fast-casual restaurant. Enjoy an authentic espresso prepared to perfection, as if you were in Naples. The menu, featuring carefully prepared paninis and salads, will also take your taste buds on a culinary journey. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or enjoying a leisurely coffee, Parma Café promises a warm and welcoming atmosphere, just like home.
Parma Café Laval comes across as a warm, bright Italian spot with excellent coffee, hearty paninis, and reliable desserts, and the staff are frequently described as friendly and attentive. The menu offers a good variety from paninis and salads to pastries, with favourites like a well loved panini and the monthly special, while the atmosphere is often noted as great for studying or meeting friends; however it can get quite loud during peak times and seating can be tight. Many reviewers praise fast service and consistent quality, with thoughtful touches from the team and owners, and takeout and catering receive positive notes, making Parma Café Laval a popular, dependable choice for a casual meal or coffee.
OG poulet was suppose to come with the eggplant but eggplant no where to be found. 20$ for a sandwich with no real taste & the bread wayyyyy to crunchy to even eat. The chicken has no flavour at all. Save yourself from going here.
Je ne vais pas tourner autour du pot.
Honnêtement le café est super beau mais très bruyant, désagréable & impossible à étudier à cause de leurs règles.
En tant que cliente régulière & étudiante, leur limite de temps pour étudier dépasse le niveau de stupidité possible. On va te dire de t'asseoir au comptoir pour étudier alors qu'il n'y a aucune place, puisque tous ceux qui ont un ordinateur ou un iPad doivent aussi s'y asseoir. Les jeunes serveurs sont gentils mais leur chef d'équipe a énormément d'attitude surtout envers les étudiants.
On lui a expliqué qu'il n'y avait pas de place au comptoir & il nous a répondu qu'il ne pouvait rien faire. On a donc littéralement dû quitter le café parce qu'on ne pouvait pas utiliser nos appareils ailleurs. Il faut aussi savoir que c'était le week-end de la F1 donc le café était presque vide. Il y avait plus de tables libres que de clients ce qui est complètement aberrant & ridicule pour un endroit qui se dit être un'café'.
J'ai essayé de parler au chef d'équipe & il s'est mis à argumenter avec moi en disant que'avec l'expérience on voit des étudiants acheter une seule chose & rester ici pendant des heures donc c'est une perte & ce n'est pas une bibliothèque'. J'étais abasourdie.
Faut savoir qu'à chaque fois qu'on vient ici, on prend une salade, des frites, des pâtes & des boissons. on dépense un bon minimum 60$ parce qu'on se recommande une boisson après quelques temps. Cette fois ci, même en ayant commandé tout cela, on a même pas pu finir de manger, car on planifiait manger en même temps que d'étudier, mais on nous a littéralement mise à la porte, même s'il n'y avait personne dans le café. Super irrespectueux.
Argent gaspillé, nourritures pas consommées.
On vient te servir une seule fois puis plus personne ne te regarde & après ça parle de service. Quel service exactement ?
Anyways c'est vraiment dommage mais on ne reviendra plus jamais dans ce café parce que leurs règles & leur service ne font absolument aucun sens.

Went in just for a coffee, their cafe food menu looked pretty good though. I had a latte & it was some of the best latte I've had. The flavor was amazing, not over bearing & the milk & foam was so thick. Truly heart warming.
Je donne 5 étoiles au Parma Café Laval pour la façon dont a été géré le petit souci que j'ai eu avec un des items que j'ai commandé : avec respect, efficacité & altruisme! ❤?
Ils ont de beaux choix sur leur menu, le service a été efficace & agréable & j'ai aimé ce que j'ai commandé. Je reviendrai avec plaisir!
Parma Café is a standout. I ordered the steak sandwich & it was excellent-perfectly cooked, flavorful, & clearly made with care.
The service was just as impressive. The staff were attentive, welcoming, & genuinely kind without being overbearing. The atmosphere is calm & inviting, making it an ideal place to sit, relax, & enjoy your meal.
Overall, a well-rounded experience. I would absolutely return & highly recommend it.
I recently visited Parma Café & was pleasantly surprised. It's a great spot to grab a delicious coffee, but you can also come for lunch since they offer a variety of sandwiches, salads, & cold drinks.
The menu has a good selection of coffee options, & the desserts are definitely worth trying. I highly recommend the Caprese salad - it was fresh & really flavorful.
The service was exceptional, & the staff were genuinely kind & welcoming, which made the experience even better. The space is quite large, with a nice atmosphere, good music, & thoughtful decoration.
Overall, it's a beautiful place to visit at any time of the day, right in the heart of Laval.
Ive been here a few times my wife & we always enjoy everything they make. Everytime we go we try new things & we are never disappointed. The owners treat you like family the service is impeccable & the food is phenomenal. The coffee is fantastic! I would recommend for a quick bite, coffee & sweets or a full meal.
They have many tables inside & outside.
Thanks to the staff & owners you all treat everyone with respect & kindness!
Keep doing what your doing. It's a guarantee you will see us again!
Grazie alla prossima Ciao ciao!

food is good, pasta & sandwiches are delicious. Coffee very good, salads need more dressing & matcha latte wasn't the best, especially for 7$ I had higher expectations…
First time there & was pleased by the atmosphere & the delicious assortment of pastries & treats. I had a chocolate & caramel mousse, which was really good & not overly sweet. My macchiato coffee was also very good & made correctly. They did forget my food order, but once they were reminded, they served it up quickly. Recommended & eager to go back.
j'aurais pu mettre un 5 étoiles mais…Je suis un habitué du lieu, toujours eu un bon service jusqu'au 22 avril a 10a.m, la personne a la caisse, Ni Bonjour, ni sourire, ni merci… elle nous sert a table pareil, pas courtoise ni rien, bref quand on ne veut pas travailler on reste chez soi
Not the best, I sit & wait until they ask me go move around, I pick a table & they tell me to move, then I pick another one & told me they need it for more people (mind you at this point I have been 4 hours there CONSUMING as much as everyone else). Honestly you feel off, much better the cafe in front where you can sit & not be moved around. Plus the chairs are extremely uncomfortable. Seems I am not the only one based on previous reviews. If you need to stay long time, I definitely do not recommend unless you come in a group, the only way you won't be bothered, be sure you will be highly prioritized (4+). Not coming back.
