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.

I don't really like the coffee here - it taste quite sour, I gave it two options. The staff is also rushing you as a non French speaker. I was just trying to understand the menu & they were very dismissive.

Great coffee shop in the heart of Montreal. Had a chance to check this place in the evening & it was packed! Ordered the pistachio ice cream & mochaccino (double espresso). Let's start with the ice cream - rich, creamy & with a light taste of pistachio (which I appreciated). The mochaccino packed a punch with the espresso & was great. Overall, definitely check them out. Staff is great & worth a visit!

We come to this cozy cafe for very early morning coffee & early morning walk from hotel. The tasty Americano & Corrado are very well prepared.

Great coffee. Great amaretto! I really enjoyed! The space is too tight, so it has a warm atmosphere & is crowded on the other hand…

In my opinion, it's an overrated cafe. I tried their little Nescafé ice cream( tbh I don't remember the exact name, but it was too small for 5$!!! At least it was tasty.
& the tiramisu… frozen… no taste…
I don't recommend this place it doesn't worth the hype.
