Vegan banh mi and boba with great reviews? Sounds good. Except the boba fruit drinks had a flavor that was a little weird. And the banh mi was just okay. Not awful. But also not worthy of the lofty ratings. read more

Amazing! As a vegetarian this is one of the best banh mi I have ever had. I love both the beef and the chicken. Owners are also so kind! read more

Sapa - banh mi - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Simply the best Vietnamese food ever. Everything is vegetarian with plentiful vegan options. I usually get the lemongrass 'chicken' bahn mi, seafood flavor spicy vermicelli soup, and passion fruit boba. Be careful because you will get addicted!! Great service, the highest quality ingredients and delectable flavors make this place the perfect spot for lunch. read more

I had a Pina Colada bubble tea with tapioca ($4.50) at Sapa and it was great. The Pina Colada bubble tea is a milk based drink so there is no actual tea in it, despite the name. It was creamy and rich and had a very pronounced pineapple and coconut flavour to it that I loved. It had sufficient ice so it was really cold, which I also liked. The tapioca were soft and chewy and plentiful. I really enjoyed my drink. The price was also lower than at other bubble tea places. While I was waiting, the man asked me if I wanted to sample their gelato. I accepted his kind offer and tried the Pandan flavoured one. It was rich and creamy and delicious. I will definitely be getting the gelato on my next visit. He told me that they make the gelato on-site. I noticed that they had lots of other exotic flavours like taro, passion fruit and soursop (which is what I'll be getting, I already know, lol). They had Vietnamese coffee flavoured gelato too! Service was so nice and friendly. It's a family-run business, and y'all know I love supporting the little guys. They had Banh Mi and other Vietnamese snacks by the cash register as well. If this store had been there when I was living just a few blocks away I would have been a regular for sure. However, they opened long after I moved away from Montreal. I guess I'll just have to settle for visiting every time I'm back in Montreal :) read more

Always drive by this place but never tried until covid hit since it is hard to find a parking spot in the neighborhood. Ordered 2 banh mi and when I taste them, it didn't taste like chicken and beef like I ordered. I remembered seeing pictures of Buddhist gathering and realized this was a vegetarian place. Good vegetarian options! Although it didn't taste like meat, flavour was still pretty good and refreshing. Given the fact that most places raised their prices due to Covid-19, seems like their pricing is still pretty good. Around $4.50-$5 for a banh mi. They also serve soups and other dishes over the weekend. read more

Sapa - a person's hand holding a sub sandwich - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Great for vegans / veggies! Amazing bubble tea with almond milk and vegan sandwiches! I always end up getting the same because i love it so much: Coconut bubble tea and lemongrass "chicken". They also have ice cream and coffee, but i'm going to stick to my usual! read more

Lovely place that serves lots of original ice cream flavours (nutella, Vietnamese coffee, ginger, pandan, etc). They also serve soft serve ice cream (chocolate, vanilla). The staff is super nice and helpful. It's a family owned place and their daughter said they wanted to bring an asian taste to ice cream. I got the nutella ice cream and it tasted pretty close to the same thing. The flavour was rich and creamy an the consistency was great! I wasn't afraid the ice cream was going to slip off the cone. It doesn't look like much but it is really a gem. Go try it out! PS: Cash only for now read more

Boulevard St. Laurent was completely shut down for the Mural Festival so while we were wandering up and down the street, I kept an eye out for Sapa, which a local had recommended to me. They weren't open when we first walked by but we window shopped hard. Tropical ice cream meaning Asian flavours! How can you say no to that? Hours are kind of random. Closed Monday but everything else is 1:00pm to 8:00pm. I assume they'll change this once they sort out the kinks. Menu. There's Vietnamese iced coffees you can get with ice cream. Sounds like a magical combo. Lucky we did recon beforehand because the raspberry lychee wasn't in the display case when we came back and were trying samples. We asked one of the workers and turns out they were prepping a new batch. After careful deliberation, we settled on two but there's lots of interesting Asian flavours. Pandan, yuzu, corossol and ginger to name a few. - Raspberry lychee and passionfruit ($3.85 double scoop cup) - we shared a double scoop of raspberry lychee and passionfruit. Both were very light, refreshing and full of flavour. Good consistency although it started to melt as we headed towards the metro. My favourite of the two was the raspberry lychee. Next time I would try their soft serve but this was a great spot to grab a quick cone. Perfect for some dessert if you're on busy boulevard St. Laurent. read more

Amazing vegan Vietnamese sandwiches and soups. Get the spicy lemongrass chicken. It will blow your mind. It's made out of mushrooms and is absolutely scrumptious. read more

A hole in the wall, just one table for two outside, one small table inside, and a few benches outdoors. A good place to pick up food to go. We had the chicken lemongrass banh mi--- crispy bread + fresh veggies+ tasty chicken-- a nice little afternoon snack. The owner and his wife were both very kind. read more

Le propriétaire choisit à quels clients il donne les choses habituelles qui accompagnent les soupes. exemple : germes de soja, citron vert, herbes. Soit dit en passant, cette nourriture a le moins de goût vietnamien que tout autre restaurant à Montréal. Ne gaspillez pas votre argent ici. The owner chooses which clients he gives the usual things that accompany the soups. example: bean sprouts, lime, herbs. By the way, this food tastes the least Vietnamese than any other restaurant in Montreal. Do not waste your money here. read more

We were searching for boba--and found love!! Their ice cream flavors looked incredible!! We tried pandan and it was delicious! The boba was amazing! I'm from Hawaii so my boba standards are high! The price was right and the servers were really kind. read more

As a recent vegan (omg don't hate me lol) it is really a treat to find spots that are 100% vegan so I don't have to ask a milion ovo/lacto questions. This place does not even remotely disappoint. The prices are reasonable, allowing you to try pretty much everything without breaking the bank. I love that. My absolute fave were the 'shrimp' rolls oh my god. The flavour!!! Excited to go on a gelato spree the next time I'm on St. Laurent. read more

DELICIOUS VEGAN VIÊT FOOD. Just learnt that the owner just came back from Vietnam after a year of learning how to make authentic Viêt food! And they made everything vegan here! I LOVED THE BANH MI AND AM COMING BACK FOR COUNTLESS TIMES. It also had special ice cream flavours like yuzu, black sesame, ginger, coconut. read more

Can't say anything about the other items, but do not buy bubble tea from this store. The tapioca is hard, and the tea tastes more like fruit flavoured water. By far the worst bubble tea I've ever had. read more

Had the mushroom and tofu Banh Mi and loved it! Great mix of different mushrooms to add great flavour. Even though they are vegan banh mi, for $3.95 you don't even miss the meat. read more

Delicious and affordable vegan food! Person who served us was very friendly and gave us taste tests of all the vegan ice cream just to be nice. Coming back this evening. read more

-1 star because they ran out of bubbles, and it was 3pm!!! :(. That aside, the tea was good, we ordered lychee tea, milk tea, and the Coffee with Nutella ice cream. The passion fruit jelly wasn't overly sweet like I've had at other places, and the coffee and ice cream combo was heavenly. Nice hidden gem! read more

The banhmi is delicious, spicy fresh and crunchy! But most of all the service is charming. One of the cooks/servers offered us some freshly made crepe-like biscuits while we enjoyed our sandwiches. Felt very much like I was being welcomed into a family home. read more

As a bahn mi enthusiast I can't recommend this place enough. They have the most delicious bahn mi in town and it's only 3.95, better than vua, or the place beside big in Japan... or the other 2 places I've tried. it may be vegetarian but even my carnivore boyfriend prefers sapa to anywhere else. Give it a try! read more

Fantastic service and a wonderful pork banh mi sandwich! In fact, this is my favorite banh mi in Montreal, and I've tried over a half-dozen places. Better yet, it's the cheapest banh mi. read more

I work across the street from this place and discovered it today. It's a cute little place with good service and bubble tea. :) I'll be going back soon to try their vegetarian bah mi sandwiches. The prices are really good too. read more
