Café Olimpico est souvent décrit comme un incontournable du Vieux-Montréal, avec une ambiance chaleureuse et une énergie italienne qui invite à prendre son temps. Le café est généralement riche et équilibré et accompagne des pâtisseries et desserts remarquables comme tiramisu, cannoli et bomboloni pistache, tandis que des boissons comme espresso, cortado et cappuccino remportent les meilleurs avis. L'endroit, petit et intime, offre un cadre authentique avec des touches européennes, et il est courant de trouver des places près des fenêtres pour profiter du quartier; les visiteurs apprécient aussi la fraîcheur et la qualité des pâtisseries. Le lieu attire une foule importante et les files peuvent être longues, mais l'équipe est décrite comme chaleureuse et efficace, rendant l'attente plus agréable. Situé au cœur du Vieux-Port, il propose une expérience mêlant découverte culinaire et atmosphère historique, ce qui en fait une étape privilégiée pour les amateurs de café à Montréal. Certains retours mentionnent des moments de service plus froid ou un manque de places assises lors des périodes de pointe, mais l'ensemble des avis s'accorde à dire que le café et les desserts restent d'une grande qualité et que l'identité italienne du lieu en fait une halte mémorable à Montréal.
Such a cute & cozy café! I tried the pistachio affogato, croissant, & tiramisu - all delicious.
The classic espresso & desserts were spot on, & the staff were very friendly. Seating is limited inside, so it's a great spot to grab a coffee while exploring the area. Love it?

Café Olimpico - Vieux-Montréal is a must-visit when in Canada. Yes, there was a line when we arrived, but it moved quickly & was absolutely worth the short wait. From the moment we stepped in, the atmosphere was warm & welcoming - even the outdoor vibe felt cozy & full of life.
The drinks were incredible - truly the boost of energy you need to keep walking & exploring the beautiful city of Montreal. Rich flavors, perfectly balanced, & served with care. The desserts were equally impressive: high quality, fresh, & absolutely delicious.
If you're in Montréal, don't skip this spot. It's the kind of café that makes your day better, sip by sip.
There was a little bit of wait here, but it was worth it. The gelato I got was delicious. It may have been the best gelato I've ever had. I will definitely be back.
The vibe looked great in here. It's too bad we had to leave our spot in line because the wait was way too long!!! On a hot Friday afternoon, there should probably be more than two people working.

This was a really nice spot, but be prepared to wait in a long line. However, totally worth it. We got the pistachio affogato, hazelnut affogato, latte freddo, tiramisu, & Nutella bombolini. The pistachio affogato was spot on & delicious, the hazelnut affogato was a bit too sweet for me. The latte freddo was sooooo good & perfectly bitter for after the Nutella doughnut! The tiramisu was also spot on & I was a tad worried because I've read reviews where they mentioned it tasting boozy, but I think it was pretty close to the real deal. The Nutella bombolini was super filled & super sweet, so you are warned… or prepared! Great spot! Loved it! Oh also seating area is tiny & sparse so hopefully you take it to walk with.
Way too expensive. This cost $18 !!! for such a small portion!! 😭😭 I'm not sure if there was a mistake with the charge or if this is the standard pricing at this cafe, but considering the long wait & all the hype surrounding it, I didn't feel it was quite worth it. While the taste was fine (just tasted like coffee ice cream tbh), I'd recommend doing some research first to see if it fits your budget & expectations. There are definitely other places that might offer better value for the price :'))

Un excellent café avec une ambiance toujours agréable. Le personnel est très accueillant & serviable, ce qui me donne envie d'y revenir. Je recommande vivement !
I had an amasing experience at the old port location, the coffee is nice & the biscuits ate to die for. Shot out to Sam & john who were beyond kind & professional while serving us. Thank you azizam
I don't get the hype about this place, the cafe freddo was too sweet & the pistachio pastry was the sweetest thing i've ever had, felt like I had a whole scoop of nutella in my mouth every bite.

LOVE this chain. I can't say enough good things about this place. We got the tirmisu, a cannoli, the remix & a mocha iced coffee. Both the drinks were great, I would get them again no doubt, as well as the sweets.
I will say though that the sizes are on the smaller size so keep that in mind, but I no doubt recommend this place to those coming into Montreal, it may be my favourite coffee I had in the city!
Just a simple simple cafe with friendly staff & great baked goods! Defs Check them out when visiting coffee, espresso, baked treats What more could you need to help start your day!
Gelato is absolutely amazing there. That's the only thing I take there. Theres usually quite a line up so that's kind of a bummer but the Gelato is definitely 👌 🔥
The place is so wonderful, we ordered chocolate tiramisu & it was so soft & delicious. Do not miss this cafe for wonderful desserts. The atmosphere was too good at 11 in the night!
