Iced latte is really delicious but Cafe Crema is a must during hot summer seasons! However, seating is always full. Often time, there are people sitting & chilling there without buying anything. 5/5 regardless if staring at them not buying anything is an experience you love.

Je suis venu spécialement pour le « coffee cream » en pensant que ça allait être une crème de café comme dit dans le nom; pour au final que ce soit une glace au café. Sauf erreur de ma part, ce serait mieux de noter « ice-cream coffee » pour que ce soit plus clair. À part ça l'endroit est chaleureux, il y a quand même une dizaine de minutes de file mais elle en vaut la peine car à l'arrivée les serveurs sont très charmants.

This is a small coffee shop with 6 tables & some baked goods, but they had the best coffee & service we encountered during our 4 day stay in Old Montreal. The first day I went it was very early, so no line. The next time I went was late morning & the line was to the end of the cafe. I almost left, but remembered how every other coffee I had during our stay was bland & weak. So I decided to tough it out. With 15 people ahead of me I was still out of there in under 10 minutes. The baristas were so quick! Friendly too. This is where you want to go for your coffee in Old Montreal.

Quelle belle découverte que ce café. L'ambiance est vraiment chaleureuse avec ses magnifiques plafonds détaillés.

J'ai adoré les petites douceurs, surtout les biscuits présentés dans les grands bocaux en verre sur le comptoir. C'est l'endroit parfait pour une pause café de qualité. Tout était délicieux & le service était impeccable. J'ai hâte d'y retourner.

Café Olimpico is the absolute soul of Montreal's cafe culture. It completely nails that classic, high-energy European espresso bar vibe, backed by an amazing crew of baristas who are as friendly as they are fast. Every drink is flawless & the pastries are superb.

Café Olimpico is easily one of the most authentic Italian cafés I've visited in Canada. The atmosphere is effortlessly cool, with a lively vibe that makes it a great place to soak in the energy of Old Montreal.

The coffee was excellent, & the service was friendly despite the long lines. I had the Crema l, hot chocolate, & an iced mocha, & I even loved the glass bottle the mocha came in-I'll definitely be reusing it. The hazelnut biscotti & the pistachio amaretti were outstanding, among the best I've had many years living in Canada. In fact, they're right up there with some of my favorites from Italy.

The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is the breakfast timing. I arrived around 9:00 a.m. hoping for something savory, but sandwiches aren't served until 11:00 a.m., so I had to go elsewhere after just to finish my breakfast. It was a bit inconvenient.

That said, I'd absolutely recommend Café Olimpico for anyone looking for authentic Italian coffee & exceptional pastries in Montreal.

J'ai testé le pistachio affogato & la crema chez Olimpico. Les boissons étaient vraiment jolies visuellement, le service très chaleureux & souriant, & l'emplacement dans le Vieux-Port est tout simplement parfait.
Malheureusement, le pistachio affogato m'a déçue : en tant que Persane, je connais bien le vrai goût de la pistache, & celle-ci en manquait cruellement. C'était surtout très sucré, presque écoeurant, au point que je n'ai pas pu le terminer.
La crema (glace-café) était elle aussi extrêmement sucrée & manquait d'équilibre entre les saveurs.
Au total, les deux boissons m'ont coûté environ 20 $ avant pourboire.
Un bel endroit avec un service agréable, mais les desserts glacés gagneraient à être moins sucrés & plus fidèles à leurs parfums !

Without a doubt, one of the best café & gelato spot in Montreal! Café Olimpico - has the perfect mix of authentic Italian coffee, rich & creamy gelato, & an incredible atmosphere for desserts & refreshers.

The Affogato is an absolute must-try, & the Caffè Crema or Coffee Crema is unforgettable-smooth, refreshing, & packed with rich espresso flavor. Pair it with their coffee gelato for the ultimate treat. Their cappuccino is consistently excellent, making every visit feel like a little trip to Italy.

The staff are welcoming, the service is fast, & the cozy European vibe makes you want to stay for hours. Whether you're stopping by for a coffee, an affogato, or a scoop of gelato while exploring Old Montreal, this place never disappoints.

A true Montreal gem that I highly recommend to anyone looking for the best coffee & ice cream experience in the city!

Endroit très sympathique, on a l'impression d'être dans un café en Italie. Le mocha est très bon ainsi que les pâtisseries
Personnel très sympa

Stopped in here after a long walk around the port area. It was quite crowded but we managed to snag a small table near the back. The coffee was strong & bold exactly how I like it. It definitely captures that classic European cafe vibe that is so hard to find these days. It is a bit pricey but you are paying for the location & the genuine experience of being in the heart of the historic district.
