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.
Loved setting up to get some work done here! There is limited seating so getting there earlier is recommended for sure. The guys working the barista station were super nice & definitely knew lots of the regulars coming in, they were also giving recommendations to a couple of tourists coming in to look for fun things to do in the city.
I had one of their lattes & a pistachio cream croissant (highly recommend!). Very fun place!
I've been to the Mile End location of this cafe, but I was downtown so I thought I'd check out this location. It was slightly underground & a little smaller, but very quaint. I ordered the Latte Freddo iced & it was a very delicious & smooth iced coffee. Whenever I'm in Montreal I do make it a point to visit this place as it is one of my favorite coffee shops in the city! They also sell Italian pastries which I have tried before at the other location. Also very good! There's a reason there's several locations of this place, it means they are doing well. Highly recommend for good coffee in Montreal!
'Really loved this spot! The staff are super friendly & went out of their way to be helpful. As for the coffee, it's excellent. Very smooth, easy to drink, & high quality. The tiramisu was a highlight too; it tasted incredibly fresh, light, & wasn't overly sweet. Just a heads-up: the space is tiny & gets crowded fast, so it's not the best place for a long sit-down session. I'd recommend grabbing your treats to go & enjoying them on a walk!
Depuis 2 ans, je me rends au café Olympico chaque fois que je travaille en présentiel! Les barista savent exactement comment préparer mon café latte comme je l'aime! Un vrai délice qui débute bien ma journée! Le service est excellent & personnalisé. Le local est chaleureux & me fait penser aux bars jazz new-Yorkais. Je recommande sans hésiter!
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.
Coffee was excellent. The servers were friendly snd helpful. Place was extremely busy though & waited in line for 5-10 minutes. The space has a nice atmosphere but is very small so not comfortable for seating especially for groups if more than 2 people. Would recommend the coffee but be aware of potential wait time.
The coffee was rich & decadent-definitely lives up to the hype. I made some mistakes in ordering & they were extremely nice & accommodating in fixing my orders 🥹🥹 The productivity here is insane! It was so satisfying seeing the coffees being made right in front of you. Super fast despite the longggg line. Limited seating space, I'd recommend taking to go, but if you're lucky enough to get a seat, the atmosphere is soo nice.

Caffè Olimpico Downtown offers a good experience, especially if you're looking for a quick stop. It can get quite crowded, so I wouldn't necessarily recommend it for a sit-down meal, but the food is definitely good, as is the coffee. The staff provides great service, always friendly & efficient despite the bustle! For a hot summer day, I'd certainly suggest trying their affogato or their refreshing remix drink!
If coffee had a party, it would be at Café Olimpico! This place serves up espresso with personality - rich, bold, & oh-so-satisfying. The vibe? Think European café meets Montreal soul, with just the right dose of charm. The staff are cool, the energy is contagious, & yes, the patio is perfect for people-watching or pretending you're in Rome. Whether you're a coffee snob or just here for the vibes, Café Olimpico is a must-sip spot. Highly recommend - your taste buds will thank you!
Caffè Olimpico is hands down one of the most authentic cafés I've visited. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, & full of character, with beautiful wooden interiors & plenty of light that make it feel both cozy & vibrant.
The coffee is absolutely top-notch - rich, smooth, & clearly made by skilled baristas who know what they're doing. You can taste the quality in every sip. Their croissants & cakes are also exceptional: fresh, & baked to perfection.
Located in downtown Montreal, it's the perfect place to relax, catch up with friends, or simply enjoy a quiet moment. The positive energy & friendly service make the experience even better.
Highly recommend to anyone who appreciates authentic, high-quality coffee & a truly Italian café experience. A must-visit spot if you're in the area!
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.
We recommend stopping by Café Olimpico for a coffee! We tried the espresso macchiato & cappuccino, & both were very nice & also more affordable than most spots in downtown Montreal. We appreciated the staff's (or owner's) incredible friendliness & energy, it made our visit even more enjoyable.
We chose to sit inside, but we'd actually recommend getting your coffee to-go. While the café has a cozy atmosphere, the space is quite small, & when it gets busy, it can feel a bit crowded with people waiting in line. Overall, great coffee, great service-definitely worth a visit!
Absolutely bombbb treats - so so fresh. I recommend the pistachio chocolate chip cookie. I could eat 3 or 4 of those in a row. & hands down the best chocolat chai's I have ever had. So rich & decadent… made with real melted chocolate. The barista was hilarious & worked fast but it was so busy they maybe could have had a second person behind the counter. Also just a note, maybe not the best place to choose if you're wanting to sit down with a friend or group & socialize as there are very few tables. But once again the product is AMAZING. Their affogato is so out of this world.
