i came here for lunch and got the coffee flight. it came with : latte, macchiato, hazelnut latte, and caramel macchiato. everything was amazing and the portion sizing was just enough where it equated to full lattes overall.
i got the prosciutto sandwich which tasted so light and fresh. it would be great if balsamic glaze was added but anyways it still hit the spot.
i would reccomend this cafe as the owner was beyond kind to my friend and i, and the prices were very fair.
awesome experience

Came back home from the states and needed cannolis for guests and happen to find this wonderful cafe on Google. As you can see from the pictures mission accomplished ands also grabbed my drink to go (DBL espresso). Had a wonderful conversation with the lady working (could be the owner) and I just wanted to let everyone know that if you’re looking for a good espresso and a good cannoli, make the trip here!!!

Was quaint and small. Nothing really let me know it was different from other little cafes. The flag and name let me know it was italian. Decor was plain, no Italian music, it did not expound the Italian difference.

My fiancé and I found your business online and came to visit to try your cannoli, we were blown away to say the least! They tasted so fresh, authentic and had such an amazing crunch to them, we knew we had to have them at our engagement party. We had guests complimenting them the entire night and said that they were some of the best they ever had. We definitely will continue to come back and support your business and try your other amazing items as well. If anyone is on the fence, definitely make this place a must try on your list!

This is a great place. Our men’s league went for lunch this weekend. Good steak and pepper sub and a cold beer. Some of the guys got gelato and had great reviews.

The wait staff was awesome - they moved our tables together so the guys could all sit together and no one was waiting for drinks. The kitchen was quick too for a large group all coming in at once.

Most tables were having cappuccino or espresso - I definitely will stop in for that next time I’m in the neighborhood. Very relaxing and nice cafe.

Parking: Park across the street at the school.

Lovely little place. Atmosphere was great, the staff were incredibly welcoming and the food was delicious. A little bit of a wait as I hit a busy period, but it was definitely worth it.

Enjoyed a coffee flight and a sandwich with a friend! Decent seating, amazing service, and pretty great food! Prices are reasonable and portions are a good size. Very simple flavours, but still very tasty! Seating could be more comfortable but overall a nice cafe!

Had excellent lunch today, chef salad served family style for 3 perfectly dressed, delicious veal and chicken Parmesan sandwiches, veal cooked while we waited for ultimate freshness. Best cappuccino, latte and espresso, and cannoli also made to order with delicious choice of chocolate chip, pistachio or strawberry on ends or yummy combination. Nice peaceful atmosphere, owner is great. Gelato to go to take it over the top! Was there chatting for several hours, no rush to get out!

LOVE this place! This was our first time here and the staff was so incredibly friendly and chatty. The food and drinks were amazing! They use Kimbo coffee which I had never tried before.

I read another nasty review saying they use Costco brand and asked them about it but they just use that tin for storage for other things. Clearly that person isn’t a seasoned coffee drinker.

The affogato was to die for. We ordered the flight of coffee and gelato. My husband and I shared a chicken parm sandwich and it felt like being in Italy again. This restaurant is a hidden he in St. Catharine’s.

This is a wonderful and warm family business that is so welcoming and has great food from recipes passed down. We spent a couple of hours here and had a great time. Highly recommend this place!!

Parking: There are several parking spots in the back of the building.

Kid-friendliness: Their sandwiches and gelato are very kid friendly. They also have board games and books to entertain all members of the family.
