Dans l'ensemble, les avis décrivent Olive et Gourmando comme une adresse incontournable du Vieux Montréal, réputée pour son ambiance chaleureuse et sa clientèle variée, locale comme touristique. Le cadre cosy et vivant, les pastries ultra frais et les plats simples mais travaillés, notamment les grilled cheese croustillants, le sconewich, les sandwiches cubains et les options brunch, reviennent régulièrement comme des coups de coeur: tout est frais, les saveurs bien équilibrées et les portions généreuses selon les témoins. Le café et les boissons chaudes sont souvent salués, avec les viennoiseries et les pâtisseries qui se distinguent. Toutefois, le ratio qualité-prix est parfois contesté, certains évoquant des tarifs élevés et des portions qui peuvent sembler modestes, et d'autres pointant des expériences de service inégal selon les moments et la file d'attente. Malgré ces réserves, l'endroit reste perçu comme une expérience gourmande et conviviale à ne pas manquer pour un petit-déjeuner ou un déjeuner animé au cœur du quartier historique.
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 :)

Quaint & charming atmosphere.
We had the chicken melt sandwiches, way overpriced for a simple sandwich on a brioche with no side.
We paid $67 plus tip for two chicken sandwiches & a drink. Not worth it at all.
Bathroom right next to dining tables is quite unpleasant.
Overall probably best for a coffee & pastry to enjoy the charming atmosphere.
Loved the vibe here, cute & with a sense of humor. Great to catch up with friends or for a solo person grabbing food or getting work done. Will need to come back for their sandwiches but the chia pudding with their house granola was amazing
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.

Such a cute little gem in the middle of Old Port. Montreal is a city of eats & this place does not disappoint. Be sure to grab the ham & cheese sandwich.
La nourriture est bonne mais chère pour une assiette sans accompagnement. A peine notre dernière bouchée avalée qu'on nous parle déjà d'addition. Bon mais trop cher pour des sandwichs sans accompagnement.
Sandwich délicieux, mais 33.25$ (taxes & pourboire inclus) pour un grilled cheese... Je comprends maintenant pourquoi je ne vais plus au restaurant depuis quelques mois. Je ne retournerai plus.

Olive & Gourmando was not the best experience. We ended up coming here because the line was long & the spot looked cute. However, the menu is very odd if you're from the United States. We found it to be very pricey as well for what it is. My sandwich had little to no turkey in it.
On the bright side, however, the servers were incredibly friendly.
If you're looking for a brunch spot in the area, I would look elsewhere.
Our first breakfast in Montreal on our recent trip. The Cappuccinos were delicious & the breakfast sandwiches as well. I loved the Croissants as well. Cute atmosphere & great service.
What a place.
Packed. Clean. Friendly. Delicious.
Very well oiled machine. Staff was fantastic as we're the pastries & sandwiches. Coffee was the best in all of Montreal. Can see why after almost 30 years it's still going strong.
