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.

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.
