I would like to take a moment of silence for regular ice cubes, because once you've experienced the famed Lili & Oli coffee ice cubes, you'll be changed forever. As the saying goes once you go black, you never go back.
This iced latte does not dilute. It evolves. As the ice melts, it whispers sweet melodies of espresso into your drink. It is, quite literally, like a second coffee hiding inside your first coffee. A Russian doll of caffeine, if you will. A crescendo of caffeine-induced euphoria. A delectable stroke of genius so obvious in hindsight it makes you wonder how humanity survived without it.
Every sip, richer than the last. Time works in your favour here.
As for the shop itself: warm, welcoming, consistent. The kind of place that accidentally becomes part of your personality.
Anyone bold enough to leave a negative review should know this : hundreds, possibly thousands, of fiercely loyal patrons stand ready to rise in defence of these coffee ice cubes & you may very well risk being met with (freezing) fire & fury, the likes of which you've never seen. You've been warned.
& for those who haven't tried it yet, you're seriously missing out.

I visited Lilli & Oli with my brother for a morning coffee. I had a double espresso, & he had a hot chocolate with a chocolate croissant. Both were fantastic - the espresso was, by far, the best I've had in Montreal, & I'm usually hard to please. The place is cozy, & the service was decent. I'd definitely come back.

Not bad at all! Espresso is decent, but for sure not the best I've ever had. Amazing service though. Parts of the cafe is dark, tight & gloomy. Also, they have ice that's made of espresso, something super unique & not a lot of cafes have that at the moment. So not watery at all. Overall, not a bad place for a quick caffeine hit.

Had an espresso here. There was a line already at 10am on a Saturday so I kind of became excited since it seems well frequented. However it seems there was a line because one of the three servers was much slower than the other two & just was in the way of the others. Espresso wasn't special, I felt kind of disappointed because of this

So so overrated... & when your espresso adds up to 4$, they have the gall to ask for tip on top
