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.

Super nice cute & tiny coffee shop. The lighting creates the perfect old fashion style. Coffee is light but flavourful.

Simply the best place for coffee & sweets in town. No recommendations on the food though, couldn't decide even if I wanted to, you'll have to try it all!

Employee was very rude & impatient when we were ordering. Not many food options to choose from, we wanted to order croissants & they told us just order whatever they can give. Not a very good first-time experience as tourists
