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.

Une expérience exceptionnelle de café savoureux & fraîchement torréfié, accompagnée de pâtisseries fraîches, dans un espace au coeur du vieux Montréal. L'arôme du café se fait sentir à des dizaines de mètres…

A cozy café in the heart of Old Montreal with great music & a wonderful atmosphere. I love coming here for the hot chocolate & the amaretti cookies, which are always fresh & delicious. The staff is welcoming, friendly, & makes you feel right at home. A perfect spot to relax & enjoy a sweet treat. Highly recommended.

Lovely baristas & family feel. Shows live sports & the coffee is great too, really nice. A few tables to choose from so when it's busy there isn't room to sit.

Also had a pistachio doughnut & amaretto biscuit which was yummy!

Would recommend a visit for a local feel & great Italian coffee, good atmosphere!

Absolutely adored this cafe! My partner & I had the double espresso, mocha & tiramisu. Best we've ever had! The coffee was rich & smooth. The place was packed at 10 pm so we hit up the bar. We can't wait to come back on our next trip to Montreal. Thank you for helping us end off the night with coffee & dessert! We were lovers in paradise pumped for our next stop on our road trip :)
