I ordered an affogato at Café Olimpico & specifically asked for decaf, but I'm pretty sure I was served regular espresso. I couldn't sleep at all that night & had to work the next morning, not ideal. If you're sensitive to caffeine, I'd recommend double-checking your order.

Nice place. Line was to the door so it took a few minutes. Got the Remix & it was great, but I probably didn't need the larger size. I like the decoration & the aesthetic that they are going for. I would come back next time I am in the area to try more menu items.

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.

The coffee was not what I was expecting. Not your typical ice coffee shop that carries standard drinks. The ice is crushed so it's more grainy. Kind of mid

Classic spot that never disappoints. The coffee is rich, smooth, & exactly what you want from a proper Italian-style café.

The real star for me though: the gelato. Pistachio & hazelnut are to die for! Insanely creamy, full of flavor, & not overly sweet. You can actually taste the quality ingredients.

Perfect combo of a great coffee + indulgent dessert. Simple, authentic, & done right.
