Dropped in for a cappuccino. I was pleasantly surprised how nice this place was. I did not expect the coffee to audio be that exceptional, but it was! Next visit I hope to try some food.
When I have a day off & the National Library seems a little too much for me go to, this coffee shop is my number one choice location to write & think. Just a two-minute walk from the metro, next to Montreal's biggest farmers' market, & it offers a lot of space if you're someone who brings books & a laptop (they have plug sockets too!!!). Coffee is brewed awesomely, but the excellent service is what convinced me to be a repeat customer.
Stopped by Parma Café just for coffee & it hit the spot. Good quality, tasted fresh, & service was quick & friendly. Nothing fancy, just a solid, reliable cup. Would grab coffee here again.
Overall nice Food on point gd deals Fresh food cashiers are dry though Coffee u need to say exactly what you want they don't bother to ask If service is like Italy will be 5
I love how huge this branch is. Many seating options & a beautiful terrace. Their pasta is good but nothing to die for. The coffee is okay. The service is a very Montreal level basic. In general will be coming back to try more options in their menu.
