Conserva brings the best of gourmet shopping to the heart of Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie. Founded in 2018 by John Borros and Massimo Vincelli—both veterans of celebrated Montreal kitchens—the store combines high-quality local ingredients with the convenience of a neighbourhood grocer. Their vision? To make exceptional cooking accessible while maintaining mindful consumption.
The shop offers an impressive range of products: expertly prepared meats, Quebec cheeses, fresh pasta, organic produce, and an array of sauces and condiments. Sandwiches, roast chicken, and daily specials are ready to grab, alongside a thoughtful selection of local wines, beers, and ciders. Sweet tooths will find plenty to love, too, with their lineup of pies and pastries.
Designed by Pascal Vandame, the space is bright and inviting, with shelves of artisanal goods leading to a bustling workspace in the back. From its zero-waste policy to its chef-driven philosophy, Conserva sets a high bar for local grocery shopping.
