Excellent sandwich chaud prix autour de 16$, très copieux, combo sand/frite/boisson gaseuse + 6$, prix très raisonnable. Frite congelé, manquait un peu de cuisson.
Bémol, bcp trop de clients avec laptop, je suis passée un vendredi 15h..full! j'imagine le week-end! De plus, ils prennent les meilleurs spots…& ils restent là des heures..le proprio devrait identifier des tables / coin pour eux..une idée comme ça!

AMAZING! I went to Parma in Laval & had a sandwich with fries, it was perfect! The sandwich was fresh & full of flavor, & the fries were crispy & golden. The portions were generous, & the staff was really friendly. The place has a nice, comfortable atmosphere too. Definitely a 5-star experience!
Un excellent endroit pour savourer un sandwich de qualité & siroter un bon café, que ce soit pour étudier dans une ambiance agréable ou pour partager un moment convivial. Le service est impeccable, chaleureux & attentionné.
Merci! ☺?
Beau décor, service rapide! Parfait endroit pour petit rencontre entre amis. Je recommande le Frappé Chai Glacé & les frites. Les sandwiches n'étaient pas à mon goût.
A family member introduced me to this gem, & I'm so glad they did! I was craving Italian food, & I decided to give this place a try! The sandwiches were amazing, the fries were delicious & crispy, & the tortellini was the best in town. The salad was divine, & I loved trying Buccini cheese for the first time. Highly recommend!

Un beau café situé au Centropolis de Laval, genre italien..idéal pour prendre café, dessert, salade & sandwich..j'aime l'espace qui est bien grand.. la belle décoration, chaleureux & dynamique..good for coffee lovers..
Bon sandwich & boisson mais rien d'exceptionnel. Très cher pour ce que c'est & au prix qu'ils chargent, il devrait y avoir des accompagnement avec leur sandwiches.
28$ = prix pour 1 sandwich & 1 thé glacé, c'est cher payé pour un panini…
Very disappointed tonight after we ordered 2 panini of the month, at $17.95 each, we had 2 slices of steak, 6 arugula leafs in each sandwich. The last time I went, I had the steak/capocollo panini (again $17.95) which had one slice of each & I thought it was an off day but I guess it's the norm. I have been going to this location since then opening & I find the quality has gone down & it's very disappointing.
However, the service is always good, the restaurant has a good vibe & a beautiful terrace.

Unfortunately, they are lacking consistency! The 1st month they were openly all the sandwiches were prepared to perfection. The last 2 times was a very big let down. Chewy steak with only 1 thin slice. Chicken club had almost no chicken & very small bite seize pieces that were falling out from the bread. & how could they mess up frozen fries? Hope they get it together, I'll give them another shot but after that I'm done wasting my money on bread & condiments.
Bon service, ambiance cool. Les cafés sont bons, mais les sandwichs sont très décevants. Pour avoir essayé plusieurs endroits similaires, les sandwichs sont faiblement garnis, & la qualité des ingrédients est moyenne (fromage qui goûte le single kraft, poulet pané qui a un goût de congelé, steak trop mastiqueux).
I loved my experience here however it does get quite crowder & loud if you're planning to study. It doesn't bother me at all & i enjoy the environment. I would definitely go back. The coffee was delicious & so was the cheesecake & caesar salad chicken cutlet sandwich. The food was fresh & felt homemade.
The place is very refreshing, great sandwiches & coffee. The canoli filling may need more cream, to lessen the dryness feeling.
The prepayment thing is annoying, servers don't get tipped as much & adding to your order is a chore, preventing reordering when you see a line up at the cashier.
Everyone is really pleasant.
They do take credit card payments (unlike Molano's).
The Starbucks style table renters that show up with their portable offices & rent a table all day long for the price of one small coffee, may need to go, when the place gets busier & tables need to get turned over( it's also annoying seeing them taking over all the tables on the out perimeter of the restaurant ). Main reason why we stopped going to Starbucks , all tables & parking spots were taken by homeless/ officeless workers doing business with their Apple laptops, Apple cell phones & Apple Bluetooth ear buds. However they did all match. So there is that.
I like Parma Café's ambience & everyone is really nice! However, my roast beef au jus 18$ panini was quite average… the meat was very dry & bland. More like philly steak than roast beef au jus in my opinion… pretty cheap on the filling too I think… I don't think I'll spend that much money on a sandwich that tastes about as good as a walmart sub again… I ate it but feel really bad for my wallet right now :( sad because it really is a cute place!
Great place to have a coffee with a friend,
We went around 6:30pm it was a quite a busy,
But the service was quick
I had a light cold latte it was good
Also got the fire chicken it was spicy so if you love spicy it should be in your list
& my friend took a steak capoccolo épicé sandwich
It was also good but she preferred to have a more mayo inside to make it juicier
The all employees were super friendly
I would definitely go back
