Le Café Olimpico du Vieux-Montréal est largement salué comme un endroit italien bien aimé, avec un café riche et soyeux et une impressionnante sélection de pâtisseries dont tiramisu, cannoli, bomboloni et croissants pistache; l'intérieur chaleureux et le personnel accueillant créent une ambiance de cafe européen qui attire locaux et visiteurs, même lorsque l'espace est petit et que les files d'attente peuvent être longues; les clients soulignent des incontournables comme l'affogato, le cortado, le cappuccino et la glace, ainsi que des services généreux et parfois des accommodements attentifs pour les options sans gluten; l'esprit général est que cet endroit est une visite incontournable pour des saveurs authentiques, une atmosphère conviviale et un fort sens de la culture des cafes de Montréal.
Favorite coffee of the five cafes we hit in our long weekend in Montreal. The cortado was especially perfect & vibe in here was a super fun neighborhood joint.
Used to come here from time to time for some late night coffee. It's a good place to try & draw since the old world brickwork compliments the wooden aesthetic. Seating might be tricky to get since it's always busy with so few seats.

A cafe at the perfect location, at the centre of Old Montreal. I absolutely loved everything I had here. Café Olimpico has to be one of the top bakery/coffee shops in Montreal. You must try the affogato & tiramisu if you visit this cafe. The lines are usually long during the day, so try to come here early in the morning to avoid the line & get a seat inside!
Went on a sunny but windy day & it was packed with people. The place was very lively but setting the tone for a friendly & inviting atmosphere.
The staff, while being quite busy, was still very friendly & patient with us. They gave us a few rounds of free water while in line & even a little chocolate on the house.
The drinks & snacks were fantastic as well & well worth the roughly 10min wait.
Would happily return next time I'm in the area!
This is hands down the best coffee I have EVER had. The Americano. & I have been all around Europe, Italy etc. The staff was very friendly too & even gave me a coffee on the house when I bought a bag! ( I had to take some home to Toronto). If you are anywhere near here - just go!

Very lovely little café on the corner. The atmosphere inside is incredibly charming. It's a small place. The warm lighting & stone walls make me feel like I am in a cozy countryside café somewhere in Europe. The barista working the morning shift was also adorable, humming while making coffee. Love this place so much. This place made my impression of Old Montreal even more special.
Great coffee & nibbles. Given the limited seats, it would be great if their clients could go to the office instead of being on their laptops in the cafe.
I visited this cafe between 6 & 7 PM recently & had a very disappointing experience.
At first, I tried to overlook the ruined latte art as a simple mistake, but it was extremely rude & unpleasant that the staff cleared away my plate & coffee cup without asking me, simply assuming that I had finished.
What made this even more difficult to understand was that this is not a full-service restaurant with table service, & I had brought my own food & drink to the table myself. In that kind of cafe, it felt very strange for the staff to clear my table without first checking with me. It made me feel as though I was being pressured to leave, even though I was already fully aware that the cafe closes at midnight.
Since I was the only Asian customer in the store at the time, I could not help but wonder whether this was more than simple rudeness & may have been influenced by racial bias. I have worked in cafes & customer service in Canada myself & have visited many restaurants & cafes here, but this was the first time I had experienced service like this. I hope the staff will show basic courtesy in the future by checking with customers before clearing their table.

No words to describe how good the COFFEE is!
The staff is welcoming & you feel a real'Good Morning' after having this cafe's coffee!
In heart of Montreal, it's a good coffee place
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 !
