Les avis sur Café Olimpico concordent sur une atmosphère chaude et italienne dans un espace plutôt petit et souvent bondé, ce qui privilégie les visites rapides et à emporter; la qualité du café est largement louée, avec des préférences pour le crema, le cortado et le latte freddo, ainsi que des boissons remix ou affogato; les pâtisseries et desserts italiens, dont le tiramisu, le croissant pistache et le cannoli, sont régulièrement décrits comme frais et délicieux; le personnel est généralement perçu comme chaleureux, efficace et accueillant même lorsque la salle est remplie, avec une attention particulière à l'expérience client; l'endroit est aussi salué pour son ambiance cosy et conviviale qui rappelle une boulangerie italienne, une touche qui attire les habitués comme les touristes; certaines critiques mentionnent des temps d'attente et des places assises limitées, et quelques avis plus ponctuels signalent des surprises négatives sur le café ou l'organisation lors de jours très achalandés; malgré cela, Café Olimpico est considéré comme une véritable pépite montréalaine pour les amateurs de café et de pâtisserie italienne, offrant une expérience riche en saveurs et en énergie.
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.
the barista's got charm, the kind that fills the room before the smell of coffee does. I ask him how it is. he laughs,'not good.' a joke, maybe. maybe not. he wasn't lying. it's the kind of coffee that tries too hard, like a man in a new suit with nothing to say. bitter, empty, no heart, no art. you drink it because you have to, because the day's too long, because you forgot what real coffee tastes like. it'll wake you up, sure, but it won't make you feel alive.
Extremely happy justin is back! the vibes are so right, the boys are grinning ear to ear while making coffees. what else could you ask for while getting your morning coffee!?

Wish the coffee was better!
Sadly, the coffee just wasn't good. I was really excited to try it after visiting three different shops during my work trip, but the latte was poorly made. Instead of using a slow, circular pour to incorporate the milk properly, the barista just dumped it in all at once. The result was a very bitter drink. I tried to finish it but ended up having to throw it away. The vibe was nice, but the coffee & the long line just weren't worth it. I'm not sure if they had token their time with the latte it could have been better, but I wouldn't go back. The good thing is there are plenty of other options in the area.
We had an excellent experience at this coffee shop - the espresso was rich, smooth, & expertly made, & the overall coffee quality was top-notch. The staff were professional & the atmosphere was welcoming within the café itself.
Unfortunately, outside of this space, our experience in Montreal was overshadowed by instances of racism, which deeply impacted our overall impression of the city. While the coffee shop offered a brief & much-needed positive moment, the broader social climate left us feeling disappointed & disheartened.
Amazing experience from the second I walked in to the second I left! Super friendly staff, amazing vibe, the coffee & snacks were phenom, & service was top tier. I'll definitely be a regular here !!

Solid spot for coffee near downtown Montreal - I wish I did buy some of their beans so that I could brew at home.
Their coffee is very neutral, not too sharp, tart, or fruity, but not too tobacco or cereal either. Their coffee closest resembles that of Arabica, so if you like that style, you will enjoy this.
There's almost always a line here as well, so be prepared to wait to order & wait for your drink. All that means is they're doing something right!
Kicked off my Montreal cafe adventures with the decadent Hot Chocolate & Tiramisu from here! The barista's warm vibe made it even better 🤩
Can't wait to go back & try their coffee ❤?
