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.

Chef's kiss! Fresh, flavourful Italian sandwiches that are big enough to share, delicious pasta & tasty Caesar salad with homemade croutons. Perfect ambience with natural light & a nice patio for a relaxing lunch. If we lived here we would come all the time.

Nice coffeeshop, I went there today around 8am to take my breakfast & coffee, before I go to work. bagel cream cheese was very fresh & nice, coffee was also great. My uber was arriving in 2 min & didn't have my bagel cream cheese yet, so I told the person who was in charge of coffee preparation & she helped me to get my bagel cream cheese on time before my uber arrives.

Wonderful sandwiches! Artisan bread. Pasta & sauce cooked to perfection. Great vibe. 80's music on blast. Had the San Daniele & Eggplant parm sandwiches. Super fresh & everyone was so friendly. Stumbled upon this place while lost & walking around with the kids. It was our oasis in the moment! The owner Angelo went out of his way to make us feel welcome!

Angelo makes some great fresh food, coffee & bagels! Stopped in for some breakfast & loved every bite. Plus he'll give you advice on where to eat for dinner & maybe tell you the secret of his bagels.
