Really good vibe with lots of seating options outside & inside. There's usually a line up I was told but it moves really fast. There's drinks are sort of expensive for what they are & most people seem to get the espresso or coffee. Pastries look ok but it's the drinks that people are mostly here for. We got 4 bottles of the remix which were a bit over $10 a bottle but looks aesthetic & tastes like a less sweet, better ice cap from Timmies. They gave us a bag which was very appreciated. Very nice area overall!

Stopped by this cafe on a whim while walking around the area & I am so glad I did. The interior has a cool retro vibe & the coffee actually tastes like it was made by someone who knows what they are doing. I ordered a latte & it had the perfect microfoam texture that is so hard to find these days. It is definitely a popular spot so be prepared to wait a few minutes for a table but it is worth the patience. I will be making this my new regular weekend stop for sure.

Café Olimpico on Rue Saint Viateur in Mile End is one of the most unique coffee spots in Montréal with such a strong authentic Italian vibe & energy. Brought out of town guests to try what many consider the city's best & it absolutely did not disappoint. The affogato, côrtado, cappuccino, lemon sorbet granita & tiramisu were all outstanding. Every single thing we ordered was delicious.
The place was packed & we were lucky to grab seats indoors, which only added to the lively atmosphere. TVs were playing the Grand Prix & the whole café was buzzing. The staff serving us were super friendly & welcoming the entire time. Easily one of the best spots in the city for coffee, desserts & people watching. ☕🇮🇹🍋🍨🏁✨

Stumbled upon Cafe Olimpico last Saturday morning & honestly it's become my new favorite weekend ritual in the city. The espresso they pulled was genuinely one of the best I've had in Montreal - rich & perfectly balanced without being bitter. The space has this old-school Italian coffee bar vibe that feels completely unpretentious, just locals hanging out & reading the paper. If you haven't made it out to Mile End yet, this place alone is worth the trip.

Great vibe! Very urban cafe. The espresso is excellent albeit the cup size is quite small. We ordered mocha & cappuccino, both were very good but you finish the drinks fairly quickly. The heavenly taste cookie was excellent too

i had the remix coffee & it was definitely worth the hype. i didn't expect it to be as good as everyone was saying but it for sure exceeded my expectations. i had it in the bottled option cause im a bit late to the trend cause im having it in the winter & they mentioned that the clear cups weren't available rn. but i think it made my pictures look better tbh. but yeah it was a perfect mix of creamy sweet & bitter & if i had this cafe near me id come here almost everyday but i think its a good thing its not so i get to save money.😅🤣i will say its a bit overpriced i think i paid about 10 ish dollars? maybe 11 if i round it up. its not exactly worth it for the price but its definitely worth trying if you haven't. if you can afford it than i wouldn't recommend getting anything else if you like drinking your coffee cold. it's different from the regular iced coffee & most blended drinks are usually wayyyyyyyy too sweet but this one is just right. i was planning on sitting in the shop a bit but there werent any spots. it was too crowded & there was a funky vibe but the barista who took my order was pretty nice & fast too so i didn't have to wait too long in there thankfully.
