Excellent place for breakfast. It is a bit of a hole in the wall as there are no other restaurants nearby. The atmosphere is very authentic with cute decor throughout.
We had the egg & salami burger, which is pretty good, & the kids grilled cheese sandwich, along with a croissant. The fresh baked pastries are very tasty. Note that these don't come with sides so you might need to order a bit more.
Make sure to go early as it gets later in the morning & you'll have to wait.View more

The two of us shared a Cuban sandwich, a smashed potato salad & a green salad. We were both very hungry since we skipped lunch but even after sharing everything, we left very full.
Everything we tried had the chef's touch. It was all cooked to perfection with such wonderful & fresh & unique flavors.View more

We split a Cuban sandwich, which was delicious & perfect for a light lunch.
Espresso was pretty good. They use some good locally roasted coffee so they definitely try.View more

Sincèrement, j'ai quand même aimé. Très bonnes pâtisseries. Le menu & ses portions pourraient être plus grands, par contre, mais ce que j'ai commandé était bon. Le'sconewich', avec sa combinaison de jambon, cheddar & configure aux pêches, est excellent. J'en aurais mangé 2-3 de plus. 😅View more

The Cuban & Eggs on your Face sandwiches were delicious & not too spicy, just enough of a kick. Popular place so the wait time was about 15-20 minutes for a party of 2 but so worth it!View more

7.5. Egg panini with no meat was great & would order again. Chicken melt pretty good but not on the famous panini bread. Grilled cheese was great. Salty ricotta was greatView more

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.View more

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.View more

We thought there was rush but we were quickly seated. The food & coffee were great, & so was our server. She chatted with us a bit & gave us ideas about places to visit besides the regular tourist attractions.View more

Una bellissima scoperta nel cuore di Montréal! Questo locale ci ha piacevolmente sorpresi con la sua atmosfera accogliente e moderna. Il personale, giovane e cordiale, ci ha fatto sentire subito a nostro agio, dimostrando grande disponibilità e attenzione durante tutto il servizio. La location è davvero carina, curata nei dettagli e perfettamente inserita nel contesto urbano, con un tocco di originalità che la rende speciale.
Ma il vero punto di forza sono i piatti: semplicemente deliziosi! Ogni portata era ben presentata, con ingredienti freschi e abbinamenti di sapori davvero riusciti. Si percepisce una grande cura nella preparazione e una passione autentica per la cucina. Un'esperienza gastronomica che ci ha lasciati più che soddisfatti. Consigliatissimo per chi vuole gustare qualcosa di buono in un ambiente piacevole e giovane.View more

We asked our local friends for the best bakery & breakfast place & they immediately suggested Olive & Gourmando. The service was fast & friendly, & the food was incredible. I had the breakfast panini (not as spicy as they claim), & it was amazing. The pastries were delicate, sweet (but not overly sweet), & fresh. The coffee had quite a punch, I'm not sure what bean they use but it was stronger than neighboring shops, but that was very welcome. If we're ever back in Montréal, this will be our first stop.View more

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.View more

Nous avons été reçu par l'hôte à l'accueil sans sourire & sans intérêt, on semblait déranger. La serveuse nous a fait oublier l'accueil par sa gentillesse & sa bonne humeur. Un autre bémol le prix du mini sandwich à 25,95$ qui vient sans accompagnement est nettement exagéré. La salade César très ordinaire. Dommage, c'était une première & dernière visite!View more
