Ce Café Olimpico est un incontournable prisé de Montréal, connu pour un espresso puissant, un tiramisu riche et une large sélection de pâtisseries italiennes, avec un personnel chaleureux et serviable; l'espace est petit et souvent bondé, ce qui favorise les commandes à emporter, mais l'ambiance reste vivante et authentique; si la qualité des cafés et desserts est largement valorisée et que certains considèrent cet endroit comme l'un des meilleurs de la ville, quelques avis signalent des incohérences occasionnelles et une place assise limitée ainsi que des pourboires automatiques sur les commandes à emporter sans choix donné au client; l'énergie animée et la convivialité attirent locaux et visiteurs, malgré parfois des files d'attente, et le tout demeure une expérience chaleureuse et mémorable.
ALWAYS ASK FOR RECEIPT!!! 18% TIPS AUTOMATICALLY ADDED FOR TAKEOUT ORDERS.
Updated on April 12, 2026 to respond to the owners's reply:
We invite the owners to take a look at the cashier camera on April 02, 2026 shift to see how your cashier works on the tap machine. We have invoices as proofs.
So instead of inviting customers to provide more details to double check & review internal process for improvements, the owners simply just conclude that'this is not accurate'.
Given their responses, we conclude that this tipping practice was tolerated & that we will NEVER come back.
An excellent coffee cannot win us over a terrible customer service because adding automatic 18% tipping for takeout orders (without giving customers a choice) is stealing customers' money, simply put.

ALWAYS ASK FOR RECEIPT!!! The cashier automatically charges 18% tips on take-out orders without giving customers the machine to choose what they want to tip (keep in mind this is about takeout orders).
We happened to notice this problem because we got paper invoice this time, otherwise we won't be aware because we just simply tap the machine. We will still support the shop but this tipping practice is disgusting, the owners need to address.
That being said, the coffee is so delicious (we ordered mocha). The barista is friendly & welcoming. The place is small, has a few tables so it's more suitable for take-out. Our experience is pleasant most of the time.
Loveee the cafe crema , the gelato is also very good
Great location
The only downside is the size of the café, there isn't really a lot of space to eat & the wait can be long

Amazing café with very friendly & attentive staff. The coffee was excellent, & I absolutely loved the tiramisu. Great atmosphere & service. Highly recommended, I will definitely come back!
Espace quelque peu exigu mais chaleureux. Je note le'Bonjour' du barista dès l'entrée. Bien qu'occupé, le service est attentionné & sympathique. Le café, typique italien, atteint la cible.
I ordered an iced americano & chocolate chip banana bread & my girlfriend ordered the latte freddo & a nutella pastry (not entirely sure what this was). While we were eating, they brought out the cannolis & these are definitely a must try!
The cafe was quite snug but we were able to find a table & enjoy our breakfast inside the shop

Le goût de café est bon , mais l'endroit est vraiment trop serré pour rester sur place. Le service laisse à désirer 👎👎👎
Le barista préparait ma commande en jasant avec des clients au lieu de se concentrer. J'ai demandé un espresso simple allongé & on m'a servi un court.
Big thank you to Nelson & Spencer for delicious coffee & a really pleasant interaction. Best possible representation for Olimpico. You guys are great, thank you!
