I’m hesitant to review this place as it is a hidden gem and I don’t want it to become too busy!! Delicious sandwiches, flavour and robust coffees and delicious Italian sodas. Great assortment of frozen meals, tons of parking with a relaxed and casual atmosphere. 10/10 5 stars. You are missing out if you haven’t tried Francesco’s.Vegetarian options: Good selections for those who don’t eat meat.Parking: Lots of parking here.Kid-friendliness: Easy atmosphere to bring kiddos tooWheelchair accessibility: Park in the nw end of the parking lot for wheel chair accessibility.

A nice neighbourhood cafe in a local strip-mall. A good array of drinks and baked-goods. A ciabatta sandwich menu with a number of choices. The breakfast sandwich, turkey pear, and grilled cheese are particularly good. The sell ice cream as well as a small selection of frozen products from the Italian Store, and some canned and bottled goods as well. They also have a selection of succulent plants and planters available. A pleasant place to stop for lunch or coffee.

I’m here at least once a week. They’re just a bunch of lovely people and the caramel lattes are delicious. I appreciate that they’re open early enough I can avoid Starbucks and support a local business!

Great little coffee shop where you can buy other prepared meals and other food to take home. The only problem is that there often only 1 person working and if they’re busy you wait a bit, but great otherwise.

I love Franchesco Cafe. The staff are always so nice and accommodating. I'm vegan, so they always make my sandwiches vegan for me and my partner. I also love the ambiance. Such a gem.
Pleasant atmosphere but food is expensive and underwhelming.

Beautiful quaint cafe great for hanging out with friends, family, or just working alone with your laptop. Service was fast. Iced coffee tasted okay. They only have a few tables and chairs. Also found out that their selling Abbey’s creation ice cream and some basic Italian groceries like pasta, sauce, frozen meals and soups. They also sell greeting cards for any celebrations, plants, glasswares, and souvenirs. Parking can be hard especially in mornings. Definitely going to be one of my go-to cafes here in Killarney!

This is a really good coffee shop with great coffee, a cool vibe, and friendly staff (plus a great freezer in the back with some awesome dinners). I really want to give them 5 stars - they don't have wi-fi (the only reason I need a coffee shop is because I work remotely and I like working out of different shops around town), and they also ask for a tip before anything was received or any service was rendered.-1 star for no reliable internet, - 1 star for asking for a tip at the point of sale before receiving my order.More details:Unfortunately this shop does not have their own Wi-Fi. There is a public Telus connection, but it is weak and very unreliable. If they had their own Internet with a reliable connection I'd be buying coffee and lunch here all the time.If you also work remote and you're looking for a place to get stuff done, this isn't the shop for you. But if you're looking for a locally owned place to have a coffee with your friend definitely check this spot out!

Asian cafe under the guise of "European." Terrible coffee. I so, so, so wanted to like this place but simply cannot and, boy, have I tried; been at least half a dozen times now and am disappointed every single time. Most nonchalant, disinterested staff; coffee, is bitter, even sour; rock hard cookies at $3/piece, so much as I love the ambience *jazz music and great lighting* it is an Asian owned cafe trying desperately hard to be a quaint European cafe but sadly, and loudly, missing the mark.
