Review Summary

Café Olimpico is widely celebrated as a Montreal staple, recognized for its authentic Italian-style espresso, delicious signature coffee drinks like the Remix and Café Crema, and high-quality pastries such as cannoli and tiramisu. While the atmosphere is consistently described as vibrant, cozy, and reminiscent of a classic European cafe, the spaces are notably small, leading to frequent lineups and limited indoor seating. Despite the busy environment, the staff is frequently praised for being exceptionally fast, friendly, and welcoming, making the overall experience highly recommended for those seeking a quality coffee break in the heart of the city.

Le Café Olimpico est une excellente adresse à Montréal ! L'ambiance est chaleureuse, le service sympathique & leur café est tout simplement délicieux, mention spéciale pour le café crema, vraiment excellent.
Petit bémol : il ne restait plus grand-chose en pâtisserie dans l'après-midi. Le serveur m'a expliqué qu'il fallait venir vers 10h30 pour avoir plus de choix, car le stock part vite. Mais cela montre bien à quel point tout est frais & apprécié !
Une belle adresse à (re)visiter sans hésiter.

A montreal classic. Tiny shop, only meant for take out coffees. Almost always a line but it goes by quick. I like their remix a lot (a layered mix of cold espresso, caffe crema soft-serve, with hot frothed milk & chocolate). I recommend it to anyone who likes a nice sweet but not too sweet coffee treat in the summer.

The affogato also isn't bad, just a bit too much ice cream for me. Their mocha is one of the best.
