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.

Un très bon moment au café Olimpico! Nous avons pris un Mochaccino & un café latte au lait d'avoine, la présentation était super & les boissons étaient vraiment très bonnes ! Juste un peu dommage qu'il n'y ait pas plus de places assises. Je conseille fortement d'aller y faire un tour !

You know the coffee is going to be amazing when the barista refuses to serve the first batch of espresso they made because it wasn't up to their standard, & then remakes the coffee. Probably the best coffee I have had in the city, I only wish the place was a little bigger.

This cafe in city center is rather small. Maybe around 8 seats only. Most people would just take away their coffee & snack. The Nutella cookie is amazing. The coffee is great. I really like it here.
