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.

Café pour les touristes uniquement on dirait. J'y suis allée puisque je travaille dans le quartier & c'est à peine si on m'a dit bonjour contrairement aux touristes sur place à qui les employés font la conversation !

A very small & very busy cafe … However the service is very fast. I got latte, Tiramisu & the chocolate bar. Latte was good. Tiramisu was amazing ! It melts in your mouth. Chocolate bar was WOW ! I didn't see it coming ! It was a white chocolate with pistachio it was really good ! I will definitely gonna visit this place once I come back to Montreal !

Got the cafe crema, tiramisu & cannoli. Gotta say that they were even better than in Italy. Everything was better than excellent.
The only negative point is that the place is small & usually full of people so it's a to-go order 100% of the times.
Highly recommended.

A good spot to drop by & grab a coffee, latte, tea, etc. Atmosphere is nice despite people smoking by the entrance. Otherwise, a nice quick pit stop as you travel through Old Montreal.

C'est une vraie safe place ce café, j'aime beaucoup l'ambiance. Par contre, j'avais l'habitude d'y aller à 6h, & à chaque fois on m'a fait attendre parce que la personne à l'ouverture n'avait pas encore fini de tout préparer, même après 6h passé
