Food & service was great but you have to remember its a tiny space, lots of customers, super long line & waited a good 20+ minutes in line just for 2 coffees. Patience is a virtue at any location I've noticed.

This café served delicious coffee, cake, & cookies, & the manager was especially friendly & tidy. Despite the long line, they were warm & kind to the children. It's definitely a place I'd love to visit again while I'm in Montreal.

Le Café Olimpico dans le Vieux-Port est une adresse qui respire le charme européen. Dès qu'on franchit la porte, on est transporté par son décor chaleureux : plafond travaillé, présentoirs de pâtisseries & gelatos artisanaux, ambiance feutrée qui donne envie de prendre son temps.

☕ Le café : un espresso bien serré, riche en arômes, exactement ce qu'on attend d'une maison qui fait honneur à la tradition italienne.
🍪 Les douceurs : biscuits, gâteaux, une touche gourmande parfaite.
🏛? Le lieu : niché dans un magnifique bâtiment de pierre, l'endroit a une authenticité qui colle à l'âme du Vieux-Montréal. L'intérieur est intime, mais on peut aussi profiter du charme du quartier avec son vélo ou à pied.

En bref : une halte idéale après une balade dans le Vieux-Port, que ce soit pour un café rapide ou un moment plus long entre amis. Ce café a réussi à conserver son identité tout en s'intégrant parfaitement à l'atmosphère historique du quartier.

I'm not a coffee drinker, but have been here three times & always really enjoyed it. Outstanding, fun & friendly people behind the counter, you never feel rushed or ignored. The pastries I've had (lemon cake, for example) have been very good, & they have a good tea selection in addition to their coffees. The other draw is the fantastic space - gorgeous wood decorative ceilings, ancient stone walls, & a tight but comfortable seating that doesn't feel crowded even when it is. The coffee bar is really nice to see. It is in the heart of downtown & lots of tourists, but I've always been able to get a table with friends, despite the small size. They do what they do very well, you don't need my review to know it's popular!

Coffee & pastries were delicious. Be ready to wait in line as it's very popular for a reason! However service was fast & efficient. Everyone was friendly.

I was shocked how hard it was to find a coffee shop other than Dunkin open at 6am. Thankfully I came across this place that I had walked by the night prior. Short line, single person staffing shop, but he was on it. Clearly this was a place where locals come as he had orders being made as he saw people coming up & was talking to a few of them. Very friendly & very efficient. A couple good pastry options. My espresso came out pretty quick & was perfect. Temperature wasn't blistering hot, it was smooth, & just perfect to start my day. If you are an early riser, or just like coffee I would definitely check this place out.
