About

Café Olimpico operates as a quintessential Italian-style espresso bar focusing on the art of traditional coffee preparation and authentic confectionery items. Patrons select from an extensive menu of expertly pulled shots, including signature lattes and robust double espressos, crafted with precise brewing techniques. The interior layout prioritizes a fast-paced, standing-room culture reminiscent of bustling European cafes that demand efficiency and high-quality ingredients. Glass display cases showcase a rotating selection of handmade cannoli, biscotti, and assorted pastries that pair directly with the dark-roast coffee profiles. The environment centers on the sensory experience of freshly ground beans and the tactile nature of classic ceramic serveware. This establishment maintains a rigid commitment to its heritage by delivering consistent, bold beverage standards that define the local coffee culture for dedicated enthusiasts.

The coffee was ok, the tiramisu was really good. It was a rather long line around 6 pm & hard to find an empty table.

The coffee it's good & also the atmosphere however when I ask for a cup of water one of the workers said: what would you do if I said no? Cry? Honestly I don't understand how that could be funny if it's an interaction between a customer & a worker . I wouldn't come back to that store.

Cafe Olimpico's coffee is incredible. I've ordered it to the west coast because it's just that good. The space of this location is small, yet romantic-my partner proposed here outside, so this cafe will always hold a special place in my heart!

Small cups but really creative coffees & desserts. We thought the tiramisu was fab & the cafe crema was worth the hype. We weren't sure if you could order iced coffee because it wasn't listed on the menus, but we were able to order iced Americanos easily. The line looked really long but moved quickly & the person serving us was really friendly even with the rush.
