Old Montreal's Café Olimpico is widely praised as a beloved Italian coffee spot with rich, smooth coffee and an impressive pastry lineup including tiramisu, cannoli, bomboloni and pistachio croissants; the cozy wooden interior and warm, welcoming staff create a European cafe vibe that draws locals and visitors alike even as the small space and lines can be challenging; customers highlight standout items like affogato, cortado, cappuccino and gelato, along with generous service and occasional thoughtful accommodations for gluten free options; the overall tone is that the cafe is a must visit for authentic flavor, friendly atmosphere, and a strong sense of Montreal cafe culture.
Best Americano coffee in Montréal, for my tastes 😋 update: Writing with a double espresso at @olympico_cafe served up by Shiloh & Yann, that take a freshly ground coffee bean & explode it in your mouth.
This cute cozy café is located in the heart of old port & is a perfect spot to grab desserts/small sandwiches to go or sit down & enjoy your coffee, dessert or breakfast sandwich. They open at 6am, so perfectly suitable for early birds. The staff are very nice & friendly; they made special cold drinks for us & recommended best options to eat. We tried their Tiramisu, Nutella-Cookie & Pistachio Bombolini. My favorite was Nutella-Cookie; I will always come back to try more.
This is officially my favorite place to drink coffee & I have been all over the city. The coffee beans are just so fresh, smell so good & they have a unique blend you can't find anywhere else
Don't let the huge line up deter you. It does move fast, even though it was only 1 guy working when I visited. He was friendly & tried to chat with each customer even though he was doing everything by himself (from making drinks to clearing tables) There are a few tables inside but it is a small & cozy place. The ricotta bombolini was super light & not overly sweet at all! Coffee was delicious too! Merci.
These guys were my lifeline of coffee for the few months i was visiting Montreal. Great service open early & late. Over the top amazing cappuccino. When I return to Montreal my hotel will be based on proximity to a cafe olimpico. Would give 6 stars if I could
A nice, small & cozy cafe in the heart of Old Montreal. You will find nice confectionery which each one is a piece of art & professional coffees. The ambience is warm. Seats are limited & you may not find a seat easily.
Everything about this place is incredible. Coffee, treats, service, location! Top quality & will always be a go to stop whenever we visit Montreal in the future. I'm only sad I didn't have photos to post.
The Cafe Olympico at the old Montreal is simply the best cafe in the planet, & the best coffee as well the totally chilled Baristas! Big shout out to Julian, Shiloh, Nicholas for your kindness & great vibes. You all are the best. Rock it! 🌎🩵
This is a spot you need to hit daily if not twice. In the heart of Old Montreal the coffee, hot chocolate, tiramisu, apple caramel cheese cake & pistachio biscotti & cafe crema all kept my friend & finding our way back everyday for a taste of heaven. The staff are pro barista's! Tre bein! - Vancouver BC
This coffee shop restored my faith in humanity, I was feeling very sad & anxious going on with my days a hopeless lowlife with no friends. If it wasn't for cafe olimpico I wouldn't have met the love of my life Kenneth. He gave me a new view on life. The service was heavenly, they coordinated our proposal & even had my favourite Taylor swift song playing in the background. The coffee aroma really set the tone for the whole thing. Truly an amazing experience.
Top coffee in mtl, the service is always fast & friendly, the staff is accommodating. The pastries & sandwiches are good but the coffee !! Their coffee is what i need to get my day going.
