Review Summary

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.

I was looking for a cute cafe in old Montreal while my stay in town. Found this little cafe & went there. Drinks are good but not served in the mugs. Sweets were ok, the guy who took orders & make the drinks was very friendly & fun. Enjoyed my coffee by the window

Great coffee & delicious Italian pastry. I wish they had a bigger space.

Coffee is very good, but it's always jam packed here when I pass by (especially in the winter), so difficult to find a spot to sit down & work on my computer.

It's a small, cozy coffee place located in the heart of old port Montreal. They have good options for coffee but not for savory dishes. Will definitely go again to have Mocha latte.

I believe it's the owner who was working, but he was so friendly & talkative with everyone! Long lineup is worth it! Must try the cafe crema 😍 Like a frosty, but creamier & coffee flavoured straight from Italy! Their bombolone donuts are fabulous too

Very well managed to serve good food & coffee as fast as possible in a clean environment. I hope you choose to open a business in Ottawa Ontario!

That slushy/iced black coffee is yummy! It’s always crowded in every location.

Beautiful cafe in Old Montreal. The staff are extremely personable, helpful, outgoing & friendly. The best coffee & service I have ever had. The food is magnificent as well. I highly recommend the ricotta donuts & the focaccia sandwiches.
