Parma Café is described as a bright, spacious Laval spot with a warm, modern vibe where the coffee is consistently good and the menu includes paninis, sandwiches, arancini, salads, and desserts. Reviewers praise friendly, attentive service and a welcoming atmosphere, with favorites like the Gigi sandwich, the Caesar salad with extra chicken, cannoli and pistachio cannoli, and the many pastry options, plus reliable espresso and cappuccino. The space is often busy and lively, sometimes noisy, which can make conversations difficult or studying challenging, though some enjoy the lively vibe and the outdoor terrace. A few critiques mention uneven consistency, high prices for some items, and management or seating rules that affect the experience, while most note quick, courteous service and a willingness to fix issues such as missing takeout items. Overall Parma Café comes across as a popular, dependable cafe and lunch spot in Centropolis, valued for food quality, variety, and friendly staff, albeit with the usual cafe bustle and occasional annoyances.
Whether with family, friends, colleagues, or just by myself working or reading, Café Parma is the best spot I know in Montreal & Laval. It feels like home, with a warm, family-like atmosphere. The team is exceptionally friendly, & the quality of the coffee & food is outstanding. Highly recommended!
I love Parma Café at Marché Jean-Talon so was ecstatic when it came to Centropolis. Large, spacious, but still cozy & bright. Beats Café Milano Laval in terms of vibe (sorry Café Milano!) I just wished you 1) Served your breakfast sandwich all day (or later than 11) 2) Opened at 7 instead of 8 AM in the week. I sometimes would love a breakfast sandwich & coffee on my way to work ☕

First Timer. Plenty of parking around. Welcoming & friendly staffs. Place was clean & cosy. Menu was straightforward with quite a lot of Panini options. Food came like 5min after ordering which was nice. I personally had the La Gigi which was good, compared the Turkey one, which I tasted too. Also, fries portion is real big Good overall experience #recommended
Really enjoyed my experience. I've been planning on going for a while & was so happy they opened a location on Laval The decor was so beautiful & cozy, perfect spot for dates, coffee, studying, or catching up with a friend. The service was quick, & the staff were great They came to check on us multiple time's to make sure everything was good & to our satisfaction We ordered the chicken ceasar panini & fire chicken sandwich ( which was actually spicy & good ) the bread .Wow, it was great We also had arancini, crispy & cheesy The fries were a big portion so perfect for sharing, & it came with truffle mayonnaise. Tell them in advance if you prefer regular or spicy mayonnaise The owner / manager was kind enough & offered us some lattes & dessert It was a very kind gesture & made us feel appreciated as first-time customers Don't miss out, guys. I would definitely go back!
The place is beautiful, the service is very warm & friendly, great price for value/quality. The atmosphere is relaxed & modern. So happy you opened in Laval. Definitely can be a place you regularly go to in winter to change air.10/10

Couldn't be happier that Parma Cafe opened a new location in Laval! Their sandwiches are fresh, service is great, & a very welcoming atmosphere. This place is a new favourite-highly recommended!
Nous sommes super heureux d avoir maintenant un Parma à Laval. Les sandwich & salades, tout était délicieux & frais du jour. Nous allons y revenir bientôt.
Ordered the sandwiches . They were 40% lettuce , 15% meat & the rest bread . They look high & mighty but pack a poor punch . Cookies were stale as well . Also, singles cheese with steak is unacceptable , melt some provolone for god sake & charge me the extra dollar . No real Italian experience here , just Italian Americana
Le cafe glacé était 10/10. Par contre j'ai commandé un panini au poulet & des frites & c'était pas wow. Le pain du sandwich était un peu mouillé & le seul gout qui ressortait du sandwich était la sauce buffalo. Les frites étaient également froides & goûtaient vieux. En ce qui concerne le resto, la place était belle & propre malgré que c'était très occupé... good job pour ça ;)
Absolutely loved our experience at Parma Cafe! The cappuccino was perfectly frothy & rich, & the iced coffee hit the spot-refreshing & smooth. The ambiance is cozy, & the service was friendly & quick. We'll definitely be back for more delicious coffee moments! Highly recommend!
