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.
It was my first visit at this cafe. Ordered a roast beef sandwich, which looked very delicious but then when I took a bite, there was very hard, gristly pieces of meat & cartilage. Unfortunately it wasn't just one bite & the whole sandwich had pieces like that. Wouldn't recommend it.
I really don't get the score? Had the breakfast sandwich, it was literally tasteless, zero seasoning on the egg, the bacon didn't taste like anything...surprised me tbh. The potato fritter was over fried..I was eating a crispy & oily shell of a fritter...not good. Place was pretty empty, i ordered a side of bacon that never arrived.
Leur signature à mon sens c'est vraiment leur mayonnaise parfumée à la truffe ! Les sandwiches sont aussi assez extraordinaires pour les papilles. Une bonne place pour bruncher à la cool sur leur terrasse ombragée.
Finally made it to Parma after hearing all the hype, & tasting is believing! These are some of the most delicious sandwiches (paninis) I've ever had in all my travels. Beyond the generous portions (you could definitely share a sandwich & a fry for 2 people), the ingredients are fresh & combined into wonderful creations that melt in your mouth & make you want more & more even after you're full. I ordered the chicken cutlet which was excellent, particularly the light breading on the chicken itself which was fried & seasoned to perfection, I could eat just the chicken itself all day long. But the Eggplant Parm really stole the show. The lightly fried eggplant with a savoury tomato sauce & absolutely killer pesto was a mouth watering experience. Do not miss this panino! & for $5 more you can get a huge portion of some of the best fries served with truffle mayo & a drink of choice. Excellent value, & to top it off, a super friendly staff & nice atmosphere. Highly recommend Parma Cafe, will definitely be back.

To start with, a sausage sandwich & a steak sandwich with 2 soft drinks, tax & a tip was $48! & although the taste is ok, the value is just not there. Look at the picture of the steak sandwich. You'll be hard pressed to find the steak.
I tried the prosciutto sandwich & it was tasty. The service lacked warmth & came across a bit unfriendly, like you were in a conveyor belt type of feeling :) The cafe is pretty with a cheerful vibe.
Une magnifique sandwicherie, le pain qu'ils utilisent pour préparer leurs paninis est succulent, croustillant & très bien cuit ! Leur sandwich végétarien est épicé, mais SUPER délicieux ! Plus, leur service à la clientèle est courtois, efficace & rapide. La décoration d'intérieur est calme, spacieuse & confortable pour s'installer, lire tranquillement ou prendre un petit déjeuner à la bonne humeur. Les toilettes sont très propres & bien organisées👌🏻 J'y retournerai sans hésiter!
