Parma Café is described as a cozy, welcoming spot in Jean Talon Market with plenty of room, a calm vibe, and friendly staff, making it suitable for studying or a casual meal. The coffee is consistently praised for being bold and well made, and the service is often noted as fast and courteous. The food earns high marks too, with many raving about the paninis, the mortadella and pesto, the eggplant parm, caprese salad, and other Italian offerings, plus desserts like Nutella cookies. The atmosphere is repeatedly called charming and cozy, with an open kitchen adding to the experience. While value is generally seen as good and portions generous, a few reviews mention slower service during busy times or occasional inconsistency in sandwich quality. Overall Parma Café comes across as a dependable go-to for strong coffee, tasty sandwiches, and a friendly, comfortable environment in the market area.
Super expérience dans ce café. Le service est vraiment attentionné. J'étais en poussette & on m'a très bien accueillie, on m'a même aidée à m'installer. Les sandwiches étaient délicieux & le café parfait. Je recommande!
Got the sandwich of the month & it's probably going to be a core memory. Truffle, honey, mushroom, arugula & prosciutto. That chef Jeff really knows his stuff. Compliments to the chef🤩
Wow! sandwich steack/peperoni incroyablement bon !! Latte aussi delicieux! Le service par tout le personnel vraiment bon ! Gardez le sourrir c'est super ! 10/10
Je suis aller diner avec le Chiabatta du mois style smash burger . Bien mais la viande était fade & manquait de sauce .
J y suis retourné pour déjeuner a l ouverture 25 min après avoir pris ma commande j ai reçu mon steak & egg sandwich .
L odeur était tres alléchante au gout par contre sec pas sauce dans le sandwich. Croquer sur un petit os la viande était fade .
Le service était vraiment accueillant pour les 2 fois
La rapidité de service est plutôt lent surtout avec le nombre de clients present lors de ma visite
La première fois, le café + pâtisserie étaient délicieux, la deuxième fois le café était mauvais mais mon sandwich délicieux!!!! Les prix sont assez chère mais tu manges bien

Two stars because my sandwich was good. BF & I went for paninis because they looked amazing.
The good: cute cafe, spacious.
The bad: we BOTH ordered sandwiches, & his came 15 minutes before mine. By the time mine came, his was cold (as he didn't want to be rude & start eating without me).
Four / five employees on with only 5-6 tables eating. Busier on their phones & blasting the horrible music than making their orders. We will not be back. Montreal has way too many good restaurants to waste time & money on bad service & annoying atmosphere.
De bons sandwichs italiens comme on les aimes! 👌 plusieurs choix de sandwichs & autres plats. & du très bon café! 😋
La terrasse est très agréable en été. ☀?L'intérieur du commerce est grand & il y a beaucoup de places assises.
