Olive et Gourmando s'impose comme un pilier du paysage culinaire local, en se concentrant sur les produits de boulangerie artisanaux et les provisions préparées de haute qualité. Le menu privilégie des sandwichs substantiels confectionnés à partir de pains maison, intégrant des ingrédients locaux et des profils aromatiques classiques. Les grilled cheese constituent un point culminant signature, utilisant des fromages sélectionnés fondus à la perfection au sein de tranches de pain au levain croustillant. La clientèle découvre un environnement défini par une esthétique rustique, des murs en briques apparentes et une atmosphère constamment animée par le débit soutenu de la cuisine ouverte. La sélection met l'accent sur des produits frais et saisonniers associés à des viandes savoureuses et des condiments raffinés. Chaque élément reflète un engagement rigoureux envers la qualité artisanale, maintenant des standards élevés pour chaque article proposé à travers les offres variées et robustes.
Olive et Gourmando est largement reconnu comme une destination incontournable du Vieux Montréal, célèbre pour ses viennoiseries de grande qualité, son excellent café et ses sandwichs créatifs comme le Cubain et divers paninis. Bien que de nombreux visiteurs louent l'ambiance chaleureuse et bohème ainsi que le service amical, l'expérience est souvent marquée par une forte affluence et des temps d'attente inévitables en raison de sa popularité. Si certains clients trouvent les prix élevés et les places limitées, la majorité s'accorde à dire que la fraîcheur, la saveur des plats et l'atmosphère unique de ce café en font une adresse remarquable qui vaut largement le détour pour le déjeuner ou le brunch.
This was literally the best breakfast I've ever had in my life. The panini was fantastic. I'm going to be in Montreal again in August for just one day & this will be the highlight of my trip. Also got some raisin toast, which was also wonderful.

Our concierge recommended olive & guourmando for a late breakfast brunch. It did NOT disappoint. My husband & I ordered the same thing.. Italian-ish baked egg. D E L I C I O U S & pretty too! We also purchased a few pastries on the way out. The almond croissant was once of the best I have ever tasted. Highly recommend.
The food is fresh & delicious, their salmon bowl is the perfect blend of flavor. I went back for breakfast, their chia breakfast bowl had fresh fruit, their homemade granola & a little custard. Their coffee is good too, great location in Old Town Montreal, pretty setting. The staff is friendly, I was traveling on my own & really enjoyed the food & atmosphere.
Fantastic service & delicious sandwiches! Ordered their Cuban sandwich & Chicken Melt & for once, my partner & I didn't swap sandwiches because we each loved ours so much. Store manager was especially kind & understanding when there was a minor hiccup with my order, I really appreciate it. Will definitely be back to try more of their breakfast/lunch menu & pastries!
Recommended to all my friends, some of whom ordered sandwiches for lunch too. Happy bellies all around :)
This place had been recommended by several people, so naturally it became one of the top spots on a visitor's must-visit list. After finally trying it, I can definitely see why it's so popular.
The atmosphere is warm, busy, & full of energy, which makes it a fun place to start the day. The staff were friendly, welcoming, & attentive without being overbearing. Everything felt well organized even though the restaurant was quite lively. As for the food, it was genuinely delicious. Tex-Mex ( Texan+mexican inspired) breakfast option, & it turned out to be a fantastic choice. You can also have vegetarian option for it.
The flavors were great, the portions were satisfying, & it was exactly the kind of hearty breakfast I was hoping for. Would add extra slides of bread.
One thing to know before going is that they don't take reservations-it's strictly first come, first served. We visited on a Saturday morning with a group of four & ended up waiting around 15 minutes for a table, which honestly wasn't too bad considering how busy it was. There's also a really cute little shop next door, so you can wander around there while waiting & the time passed quickly.
Overall, it's easy to understand why this place is so popular with visitors. If you're in Montreal & looking for a lively breakfast spot, it's definitely worth checking out. Service was quick & efficient, though nothing particularly extraordinary. Still, the great food, friendly staff, & enjoyable atmosphere made the experience very worthwhile.
Super cute to grab a bite or work with a laptop. Great food, small menu but diverse enough, I prefer not being overwhelmed with choice & having good options.
Had the cubain which was delicious. Truly a gem, only upsetting thing is it's not open later so if you're in the area for breakfast or lunch, you can't go wrong here!
This is was one of the best breakfast/brunch experiences I've had in Montréal or anywhere else. I had a really superior matcha latte & the eggo fuego sandwich minus the meat, which was hands down the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. In addition to using tasty basic ingredients, the combination of the buttery brioche with the piquant sauce & the rich egg & cheese were an absolute win. Friendly service topped it off nicely.
This is a great place for breakfast or lunch. The staff is friendly & helpful & the food they serve is excellent. However, the menu is limited & you may want to check online if it is to your taste before going.
