Parma Café earns high marks for quality coffee, delicious Italian style bites, and consistently friendly service, with many reviews praising the panini and the monthly special and noting a lively yet cozy atmosphere in the heart of the city. While the menu is loved for sandwiches, pastas, and reliable espresso, some guests mention occasional inconsistencies such as dry porchetta or items priced higher than expected, and a few comments about crowded spaces or minor service hiccups, but overall the place is described as a dependable spot for coffee, lunch, and a welcoming vibe.
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.
Les sandwichs sont bon avec un prix compréhensible, mais les salades sont hors de prix pour ce qu'il y a dedans : ex : la salade romaine constituée à 80% juste de salade, un poil de bacon & des croûtons... Dommage! L ajout de quelques légumes type tomates cerises & concombres comme dans l autre salade par exemple ajouterai un plus & pourrait vaguement justifier le prix.
Really yummy papini place with lots of options.. chose the veggie one. The place was a bit too cold for me but I could not stop eating my sandwich 😋🥙
Was laptop friendly when I went, great mood to get some work done 👌 really friendly staff as well
Italian cafe & sandwiches with cute staff. What else could you need?
TLDR: espresso great, matcha best I've had (!!!), sandwiches very good, had a classic tomato pesto style BANGER.
I ordered a flat white which was made small like a macchiato 🤌🏼 It was nice & strong & the espresso was smooth. Well made.
My friend ordered a matcha latte. God damn. those who seek the green dust- look no further.
I kept thieving sips of the best matcha latte I have ever had.
Often matcha lattes (& all lattes for that matter) are a time-consuming excuse not to steam milk smoothly (under or over), or mix the powder like it's a bowl of your morning oats. But this was not just some powder + liquid, this was a consistent drink.
The matcha itself was not sandy, grainy, muddy, earthy, bitter, or any other descriptor you non-matcha drinkers might use to describe it.
Anyways just frickin try it.
The sandwich, a monthly special on the menu, was a delectable way to bring joy to ma bouche. Toasted, bread not to thick, greasy, with a perfect distribution of cheese, tomato, pesto, & whatever else was on this bad boy… I simply regret not going back for seconds before close.
I evaluated my hunger to gauge if it would influence my review… & after careful consideration I believe that in fact I just like this place.
