Nestled in the heart of the ever-growing Mile End district, Café Olimpico has undoubtedly been one of Montreal's best-kept secrets. In a city known for its multiculturalism, Café Olimpico's European flavor definitely fits the bill. Founded in 1970 by the late Rocco Furfaro, this vibrant and charming café has not only withstood the test of time but has brought together people from all walks of life. From the businessman who sips his early morning espresso, to the artists and students who leisurely enjoy their afternoon cappuccino, Café Olimpico has proven to be a great place to meet great people.

Bomboloni in the pistachio flavor was amazing. Must try other desserts next time

Une place de café populaire de Montréal. Le decor reflète bien le café. Il y a souvent un line up pour avoir sa commande. Le staff est rapide a executer les commandes. Leur cafe & dessert sont tres bon. A l'exterieur il y des places assises. La chose negative: le propreté à l'exterieur, les poubelles débordent souvent. Sinon l'affogato & le cafe crème sont mes coups de coeu

This place is a true Montreal gem & absolutely worth the hype. The remix is literal perfection in a cup. I'm looking forward to trying their desserts next!

Les boissons & les desserts sont top, le seul problème est les places, il faut chercher des places & souvent attendre une place de liberer Ça montre que ce café est très demandé Je recommande

Certainly one of the locals favorites cafe, always crowded & has a nice vibe. People simply love to hang out around, chit chat or enjoy the afternoon sun. Italian best coffee & desserts. There's often long lineup to order but it's worth the wait. Beautiful terrace outside & TVs inside streaming sports events. Always have a good time at Olimpico!

Great coffee & a lively atmosphere. I can't believe how reasonable the prices for the coffee & desserts are!

Great coffee & the dessert is so good, you won't find a place to sit & it's usually very crowded & you can't find a place to sit. But a great to go place.

I had been familiar with Cafe Olimpico from other locations but I gotta say after a single visit to the Mile End location, it's certainly a step up. The service was both efficient & friendly despite it being quite crowded. The menu had plenty of variety from beverages to desserts & although I went only for a coffee, the desserts did look delicious. If you haven't tried a cafe crema before, that would easily be my first recommendation. The ambiance was great as well. There was plenty of space for seating (again, considering how crowded it was). There were also a few sporting matches across some multiple large screens & an even bigger projector. It was a pretty admirable viewing experience even though I didn't go specifically for those matches. I don't frequent the Mile End area due to the parking situation, however I would certainly visit Cafe Olimpico on any occasion I do end up in the area.

Delicious desserts & excellent coffee, with a charming European cafe atmosphere

I loved the esthetic of the café & the vibes during a football match. They have a variety of desserts & would go great with whichever coffee you choose to get. I've tried their freddo latte, it was great. I'm planning on going back to try other coffee options on their menu.

An Italian atmospheric coffee shop. There are always a lot of people & you will have to stand in line for 10-20 minutes. There is a terrace outside. Very tasty desserts & good coffee, but I definitely wouldn't go there for him.
Jen
Excellent cappuccino, server was generous with chocolat on top. Decent latte & dessert as well. Would visit again bc of the ambience in general.

I went there on a sunny Sunday afternoon with my sisters. The whole vibe is really loud & chill 😎. The waiting line was super long, it started right when we entered the room, we made a u turn & then went to the counter. Since it was 4 of us, we ordered a bunch of desserts to share. Unfortunately, the cashier got one of our orders wrong, & it was too busy & packed. Then, we were not able to get back to him to correct it. As for the cafe, the latte was pretty standard, good but not fantastic, the cappuccino with sugar was pretty though. We shared two tiramisu, it was rich & tasty overall, a bit too sweet to my taste. The fried Italian doughnut looking dessert ( forgot the name) was decadent , filled with ricotta, not too sweet, & I like it better. If you want to check them out, remember to go there on weekdays!
