Review Summary

Overall, Parma Café receives strong praise for delicious Italian style dishes, excellent coffee, and friendly, efficient service in a bright, welcoming setting that works for both quick meals and work sessions. The sandwiches and paninis are frequently highlighted as flavorful and substantial, with monthly specials and crowd favorites keeping regulars coming back, while espresso and other drinks are often described as top quality. The atmosphere is often noted as pleasant and conducive to lingering or getting work done, though a few reviews mention that the space can feel small or busy and that some prices run high for the portion or item. Occasional critiques point to dryness in a porchetta panini and a few service hiccups, but the overall impression is of reliable food, good value in portions, and friendly staff. In short, Parma Café stands out for solid coffee, tasty bites, and a welcoming vibe that draws guests back.

Première visite à ce restaurant, offre de salades ou sandwichs. Commande au comptoir a été rapide sans être amical non plus.

Bel espace lumineux avec un mélange de tables & comptoirs pour s'y asseoir. J'ai apprécié le libre-service pour l'eau, rapide & efficace.

J'ai opté pour la salade Caesar au poulet grillé à $20. Belle portion de salade, bonne vinaigrette honnête sans être dans les meilleures. J'ai bien aimé les croûtons, croquants & savoureux. Le poulet goûtait bon, semble être à l'origan.

Au final, une place où l'on priorise l'efficacité à la chaleur de l'expérience, pas un négatif en soi, juste le genre de place impersonnelle qu'on s'attend au centre-ville. Pour travailleurs affairés qui veulent bien manger.

Recommandé

Very nice chill coffee, the music is chill, staff super nice & helpful. We took 2 teas, a cappuccino & a hot chocolate. Everything tasted good. The cappuccino & hot chocolate were not too sweet, perfect!
Highly recommend.

One of the best sandwiches in Montreal! They have other locations as well throughout the city. Highly recommended for pick up or you can eat on site. My favorite is the steak sandwhich. Run, don't walk!

We happened on Parma Cafe by chance, on our way to another cafe, & decided to come back the next day. I have to say, i'm happy we did come back for breakfast because not only was the decor & ambiance quaint, but had what I can honestly say was the best grilled cheese i've had in a very long time. We came back later in the day for the cannolis & some pasta bolognese to take home, & they were both sooo good too. Cannot recommend this place enough.
