About

Café Olimpico operates as a quintessential Italian-style espresso bar focusing on the craft of traditional coffee preparation. Patrons encounter a robust selection of dark-roast espressos, cappuccinos, and lattes prepared using high-pressure extraction methods. The establishment emphasizes a streamlined menu of classic Italian sweets, including fresh cannoli and flaky biscotti intended to pair with potent caffeine servings. An open, communal layout facilitates a high-traffic environment where the focus remains strictly on rapid service and beverage quality. The aesthetic reflects a minimalist approach to European coffee culture, devoid of unnecessary ornamentation or elaborate table settings. Guests primarily utilize the counter space for quick consumption of pastries and meticulously pulled shots. This location maintains a consistent reputation for delivering authentic Mediterranean caffeine standards within an efficient and unpretentious setting.

I am biased when it comes to Olympico cafe simply because its a special place. An Italian place with one of the best coffee's in the city, their Lemon cake & croissant pastry are a must try too! There are a lot of seatings but its known to be crowded. Ive been to all Olympico cafe in montreal & they all share the same lovely service I recommend it a lot

The coffees are delicious with high quality ingredients. The staff were helpful & provided great advice. It has a unique & lovely atmosphere that reminds me of a coffee equivalent of a 1600s Belgian cafe. It's homey & makes you feel comfortable.

Great service! It's basically a smaller version of a Cafe Milano. So if you like that, you'll like it here.
