Villeray’s Cafe Ferlucci is where to want to go for great Italian coffee from a new generation of Italian Montrealers. Co-owners Megan Verdone and her cousin Gianni Pezzullo opened this cozy spot in 2015, naming it after Ferlucci Jeans, a brand once run by Gianni’s father. Every inch of Ferlucci feels lived-in and nostalgic, from the ever-changing, vintage-leaning décor to its extension into next door, a space once home to the local hatmaker Caldaroni.
Café Ferlucci’s coffee menu offers all the classics, but their bold espresso remains an obvious choice. Pair it with one of their sandwiches, and enjoy kicking back in a what’s become a neighbourhood classic.
