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.
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.
I tried the Parma salad, & it was tasty & overall very good. The bread seems like homemade. My friends tried the sandwich of the day & other types like grilled chicken. They looked yummy! The portion of French fries is big enough to share. This place is usually crowded, but it is possible to order & take away.
We had coffee which was ok with dome cookies, croissant & banana cake. The banana cake was delicious but the rest were average. Service is great & it's a quiet atmosphere with some light music which is nice.
