This cafe is a must try if you are in Old Montreal. The staff were attentive & very kind, the decor was full of character & the food was phenomenal. I highly recommend trying the smashed potato salad. It was very fresh & full of flavour, great choice for anyone who is gluten-free or vegan!
Just had a very tasty lunch with my family at Olive & Gourmando. Cozy atmosphere with relaxing classic reggae playlist (today at least). Loved mu cappuccino & almond croissant. My daughter had mac & cheese & my wife a yummy Asian salad. All were top-notch! I'd highly recommend this spot.
We tried a few items & everything was good! I highly recommend the salmon bowl!
The wait was about 50 minutes for a table & another 20 for the food.
The service isn't great & the servers are rude.
I recently visited Olive & Gourmando during my trip to Montreal, & overall, it was a delightful experience that definitely lived up to the hype. The place has a warm, bustling atmosphere with a cozy, rustic interior that instantly makes you feel welcome. We were served by a friendly & attentive waitress who made sure everything went smoothly throughout our meal-excellent service really elevated the experience.
We ordered a variety of dishes to get a good feel for the menu: the Grilled Cheese, Tex-Mex Baked Egg, & the Melted Chicken Sandwich with a side of chips & grilled chicken. I also had a cappuccino, which was smooth & perfectly balanced-not too strong, not too light.
Out of everything we tried, the Grilled Cheese was hands-down my favorite. It was rich, cheesy, & perfectly toasted-a comforting classic done right, & I would go back just for that. The Tex-Mex Baked Egg came second; it had a nice depth of flavor & a good balance of spices, though a bit on the heavier side for my taste. The Melted Chicken Sandwich was my least favorite-it wasn't bad, but I'd give it a 5/10. It felt like it was missing something in terms of flavor or texture.
What I appreciated most was the quality of ingredients & the care put into the food. Everything tasted fresh & thoughtfully prepared. The vibe of the café was lovely-lively without being overwhelming-& I can see why it's a staple for locals & tourists alike.
While Montreal offers a wide range of incredible food options that I still want to explore, Olive & Gourmando was a great stop. I'm glad I visited & would recommend it as a one-time must-try, especially for brunch or a light lunch. It's a spot that combines good food, good coffee, & great service-all the things that make for a memorable café experience.
J'ai récemment visité Olive & Gourmando lors de mon séjour à Montréal, & dans l'ensemble, ce fut une très belle expérience. L'endroit a une ambiance chaleureuse & animée, avec un décor rustique & accueillant. Le service était excellent - notre serveuse était souriante, attentionnée & vraiment professionnelle. Cela a rendu le repas encore plus agréable.
Nous avons goûté plusieurs plats : le grilled cheese, les oeufs Tex-Mex au four, & le sandwich au poulet fondant avec des chips & du poulet grillé en accompagnement. J'ai aussi pris un cappuccino, parfaitement équilibré, avec une belle mousse & un goût riche sans être amer.
Parmi tous les plats, mon préféré a été le grilled cheese - croustillant à l'extérieur, fondant à l'intérieur, vraiment délicieux. Je le recommande sans hésiter. Les oeufs Tex-Mex étaient également bons, bien assaisonnés, avec des saveurs intéressantes. Le sandwich au poulet fondant m'a un peu déçu - je lui donnerais une note de 5/10 ; il manquait un peu de caractère ou d'équilibre dans les saveurs.
Ce que j'ai particulièrement apprécié, c'est la qualité des ingrédients & le soin apporté à chaque assiette. On sent que tout est préparé avec attention. L'ambiance du café est conviviale, animée sans être bruyante - c'est un lieu très agréable pour bruncher ou déjeuner.
Même si Montréal regorge de bonnes adresses à découvrir, Olive & Gourmando vaut vraiment le détour au moins une fois. J'ai adoré l'endroit & je le recommande à ceux qui veulent vivre une belle expérience gourmande dans le Vieux-Montréal.
The cutest corner coffee shop. The staff was very friendly & accommodated English speakers with no problem. I got the sconewich & it was fantastic. Great portion size & absolutely so fresh! The flaky sea salt on top was perfection. Would highly recommend to others! The atmosphere was busy but the warmth of the walls, the open windows & plants all gave a home feeling which was delightful.
A classic & picturesque cafe! This is a must stop for breakfast or a baked good snack. I recommend the chocolate croissant, & cinnamon brioche, which is similar to a cinnamon roll. If you're looking for savory, they have plenty of menu options, but the sconewich was a delicious option for a smaller meal. The drinks are just as good & an easy stop for a to-go order.
Great food
Great atmosphere great service
Amazing baked goods
Highly recommend
5/5 Eggo Fuego: I recommend getting the avocado on the side it is seasoned & I loved it with the sandwiche. The egg is perfect spongy & adds to the sauce for a nice savory crunch.
I loved the cozy atmosphere within old Montreal's European style section of the city.
My partner & I always visit Olive & Gourmando when we visit Montreal! The French toast is world class & always hits the spot. This season, we tried the blueberry & white chocolate version. It was delicious & the buckwheat added a nice crunch. I'd definitely recommend it for brunch. There was no wait for us but we did go at 2:00pm on a Friday 🙂
Olive & Gourmando came highly recommended by locals, & it did not disappoint. From the moment we arrived, the check-in process was smooth, & the service was both friendly & attentive. The restaurant has a special charm that makes you feel instantly comfortable. The coffee, freshly brewed from quality beans, was excellent. The menu is creative & full of interesting options. We enjoyed it so much that we returned several times, & every visit was just as delightful. It's easy to see why this place is so popular.
Came in Monday morning for a quick breakfast when the restaurant was half-empty. With at least 5 empty tables the 4 of us were offered to sit at the bar table on hard wooden stools with no back support so we asked for regular tables & initially were offered 2 small tables pushed together which would have been great but then our hostess decided to sit all 4 of us at a table for 2. No explanation & no consideration. That's just part 1. Add to this a very slow services with 3 staff members wondering aimlessly & not getting the last sconewitch that we ordered & were told was available & you understand that staff don't know what they are doing or just don't care. Food was ok but not exciting with sweet ricotta sprinkled with salt & iced coffee that couldn't be made with cream for some strange reason. In other words I would not come here to eat & not recommend it. We ordered takeout the day before & that was quick so that's what I would recommend if at all.
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Olive & Gourmando, & it was an exceptional experience. The restaurant offers a cozy & inviting atmosphere, perfect for a relaxing meal. I ordered the Chicken & Bok Choy sandwich, which was absolutely delicious. The combination of flavors was exquisite, & the bread was fresh & perfectly baked.
The highlight of my dining experience was undoubtedly the friendly & attentive service. The staff made sure we were well taken care of, making the meal even more enjoyable. The vibrant & lively ambiance added to the overall positive vibe of the restaurant.
I would highly recommend Olive & Gourmando for anyone looking for a delightful culinary experience in a charming setting. I rate my visit a solid 5 out of 5 stars.
The fruit & yogurt granola was great, good coffee. Loved the vibe, butter croissant was great too. Highly recommend. Great spot for breakfast/brunch if you are visiting Montreal & staying at one of the nearby hotels
C'est un restaurant merveilleux avec des gens merveilleux. Nous recommandons vivement d'y aller pour le brunch, même s'il faut attendre. Nous reviendrons !
The ambience is really nice, good vibe but it's be try pricey for what it is. I ordered a fuego fuego sandwich & I don't know how is this like 25$ , however the French toast was delicious. I recommend this place only for a quick grab & go .. coffee & maybe a pastry.. not really for brunch
Première adresse sur Montréal, on a adoré! On recommande les plats savoureux & le service au top
"J'ai dégusté un panini cubain absolument délicieux dans ce restaurant. Très savoureux, bien cheesy, avec une belle explosion de saveurs à chaque bouchée. La portion était généreuse, donc parfait pour les gourmands ! En plus de la qualité des plats, le lieu est superbe, avec une ambiance agréable. Le service était tout simplement impeccable, rapide & attentionné. Je recommande vivement !
