Exceptional value, fast food level price but private cafe atmosphere, portion & quality. We had a sausage breakfast sandwich, & a grilled cheese with drinks. I felt compelled to leave a review. Delicious 👌 $11 each

Visited Parma Cafe in downtown Montreal during the summer & had a great experience. I ordered a coffee & pasta, & both were excellent-fresh, well-balanced, & clearly made with care. Special thanks to the chef, Jinil, whose cooking really stood out. The flavors were rich & comforting, & the presentation was clean & appetizing. A solid spot for anyone looking for good coffee & quality Italian-style food in the heart of the city. Would definitely visit again.
