Café Olimpico is widely recommended as one of Montreal's classic Italian coffee spots, & we stopped by this Vieux-Montréal location for a short coffee break earlier in the spring. It absolutely lived up to its reputation.

I loved the vibe & ambience of the café-lively yet relaxed, with the Italian café energy that makes you want to linger a little longer.We had Macchiato & Cortado, they were very good. & the tiramisu was delicious, rich without being overly heavy. The cafe is quite small tho, with limited seating, & it connected to a clothing shop & to a hotel, the lineup was huge but moving fast.

Moments like this really remind you that Quebec is a hidden gem for coffee lovers, with so many great cafés worth discovering. ☕?🇮🇹

To be honest, I thought I was crazy when I took a sip of this coffee & thought'really? This is what people say is the best coffee in Montreal?' Everyone else in the cafe was exclaiming how wonderful it was. The espresso is a bold Italian roast that leans heavily towards burnt & bitter, with an ascorbic aftertaste. I would choose all antonyms of smooth to describe the mouth feel. Sadly the pastries didn't look too much better. Sad squished crossiants & soggy doughnuts did not tempt me enough to purchase them. Although the cannoli & tiramisu looked delicious!

The edible aspects of Cafe Olympico left much to be desired, but the staff were great! Kind, funny, patient with tourists, & generous with their welcoming attitude. It's a funky cafe with classic charm & an infectious energy of welcome that would keep folks coming back.

Overall, the coffee wasn't that great, the food sub-par, but that atmosphere was delightful & the staff were fantastic.
