Fantastic! It's hard to find a cup of coffee that blows you away like this. Milk is steamed to perfection, perfectly silky. The espresso is potent and smooth, combining perfectly with milk to make a delicious, almost chocolatey treat. I also tried their baked goods, which were not too sweet. Everything is priced very reasonably for the quality. This place is a real coffee shop. I don't think you need to bother with any other coffee places around! Service was absolutely no frills. read more

I followed the TikTok hype and decided to check it out while visiting Montreal. Im so happy I fell for the hype! It was snowing all morning and we powered through and made it. It's located near the old port so it's a very good location. It's not that big so seating is limited. We had the latte and the taste wasnt bad, but not what I was expecting. I wish I would have looked at the menu beforehand because I saw customers with some delicious looking coffee. We also tried the mortadella sandwich and omg this was so good. The pistachio cream in between the mortadella was simply delicious. The staff were friendly and the cafe shop was easy to find. A must try in Montreal. I would definitely come back if I visit again! read more

Friendly service. Good latte. VERY limited seating. Arrived at 8:30a and all the spots to sit inside were taken.

This place is VERY popular and for a reason. Good coffee and very nice service. We came on a Saturday afternoon (5pm) and it was PACKED! We were a group of 10 people so sitting was challenging but we figured it out between 2 tables. It's loud here so keep that in mind and it's not really a "chill" kinda vibe it's more like to go and really walk around but it was fine read more

There is something special about getting a delicious coffee while on vacation, and Cafe Olimpico was a great spot to fuel a Saturday adventure in Montreal. This cafe has a couple of locations, and this one is in the old Montreal area. We popped in and I opted for a cappuccino. Because one must always be fueled by caffeine and carbs, we also got a savory and sweet treat to share. I ordered a cornetti - I had never tried this before, but it looked like a croissant so I of course was intrigued. Before writing this review I found out that a cornetti is the italian version of a croissant, and differs from it's french counterpart because it is sweeter and the dough is a bit different. I love French Croissants, and I now love Italian ones too - it was great. The one we got was stuffed with Nutella, so a perfect sweet bite to go with the coffee. We also ordered a mortadella sandwich. This was served on focaccia with ricotta, a pistachio cream, a it of honey and ricotta. Wow. Every time I eat mortadella I think to myself, I should eat more mortadella, and this time was no different. You can see why Cafe Olimpico is a popular cafe, the coffee is good and the treats are delightful. There was a long line but that is expected on a chilly weekend morning, and it moved quickly. read more

I was shocked how hard it was to find a coffee shop other than Dunkin open at 6am. Thankfully I came across this place that I had walked by the night prior. Short line, single person staffing shop, but he was on it. Clearly this was a place where locals come as he had orders being made as he saw people coming up and was talking to a few of them. Very friendly and very efficient. A couple good pastry options. My espresso came out pretty quick and was perfect. Temperature wasn't blistering hot, it was smooth, and just perfect to start my day. If you are an early riser, or just like coffee I would definitely check this place out. read more

The perfect coffee shop and pastry experience! I had the cafe latte hot which was simplistic but smooth, creamy, and perfect amount of coffee flavor. I also had the affogato which I would not skip out on - i had it with the pistachio ice cream and it was such a delicious treat but you could also get it with vanilla or chocolate. Service was fast despite the busy long line and very friendly in assisting with orders. The ambiance is modern casual with a sporty Olympic theme, very limited seating, would recommend grabbing and go! read more

Great coffee! Nice location! The cafe freddo here is very smooth and bitter sweet. It's the perfect size for sipping if you just want a little bit to taste test. The sweets here, however, are not that good. The tiramisu is way too sweet. read more

Located next to Hotel William Gray, this quaint coffee shop has a cozy, romantic ambiance. The opened windows to the cobblestone streets invites you in to enjoy the moment. However, the cappuccino was on the small size and unfortunately they did not have a toaster to warm up the chocolate croissant. read more

When I first walked in there was a line to order but it moved very fast. At coffee shops I usually get a vanilla latte with almond milk, so when the worker informed me that they only carry regular milk and oat milk, no flavors, and no syrups, I wasn't quite sure what to order. The only option left (per my preferences) was an oat milk latte so that's what I ordered. However, I'm SO glad that I was basically forced to choose this, because I think it was the best latte I've ever had in my life. I was so tempted to go back for a second cup and looking back now, I wish I had!! The flavor of the coffee itself was unlike any other coffee I've tried and the drink - while simple - was delicious. 10/10 read more

This cute cozy café is located in the heart of old port and is a perfect spot to grab desserts/small sandwiches to go or sit down and enjoy your coffee, dessert or breakfast sandwich. They open at 6am, so perfectly suitable for early birds. The staff are very nice and friendly; they made special cold drinks for us and recommended best options to eat. We tried their Tiramisu, Nutella-Cookie and Pistachio Bombolini. My favorite was Nutella-Cookie; I will always come back to try more. read more

We came to this spot for the affogato and really loved it. It's Nutella, vanilla, or pistachio ice cream, served with an espresso poured over, and a piece of cannoli cookie on top. While in line the cannoli also caught our eye and I can't recommend it enough. It's creamy and delicious and small enough to be the perfect little bite. I loved it so much I went back in line to get another read more

I would give the coffee a 4.5 if I could. I would definitely recommend getting the remix if you like your coffee in the sweeter and creamier side. The inside is really cute and it's like an old coffee shop vibe. The people were also really nice and were happy to help with anything I asked. read more

The BEST place to get coffee in Montreal!! We stumbled across this place on our last day here and I wish I had discovered it earlier to go more often! Don't be intimated by the line. It moves quickly. When I got in line, it was backed up into the clothing store and I waited about 10 minutes. We got the cortado, cafe latte, the cafe crema, and 2 tiramisus to go. Everything was so freaking good! I demolished that cafe crema, it was so addicting. The coffees were made so well. Strong coffee flavor but well balanced with the milk. The tiramisu was one of the best I've ever had. It was fantastic. I also got some whole coffee beans to take home. They smell so good. I can't wait to take it home to try them!!! Don't be intimated by the line and try them! read more

If we didn't stop a local to find this place, we would have missed this absolute diamond in the rough! I know traveling adds that certain charm, but this was magical beyond words. Seated in the oldest part of Montreal, this building carry so much history. It's absolutely charming! What makes it even better is the absolutely positively hands-down best coffee! The service is wonderful, but you do have to wait a little because everything is handcrafted and freshly brewed, and art fully made. You can even bring home some coffee for your coffee machine, Nespresso machine or K cup machine... Which I highly recommend ! read more

Super small and quaint cafe with a lot of personality. From the cobblestone walls to the brown and green interior. There are endless of pastry, drinks, and gelato options. I do wish the drinks were bigger sizes. What we ordered: - Frodo: The best of both worlds. - Caffe latte: Super strong. - Tiramisu: So so good. Would recommend - Canoli: Very good but small. Note: There will be a line but you'll receive your drinks fast. read more

The cheeky boys behind the counter made my morning! Ricky especially! So cute and sweet. I got a mocha and man was it good. The small intimate cafe was nice and made it easy to talk to everyone. I am only in town for a few days and I will def be coming back!! read more

Next to the Hotel William Gray -you can find this very small Italian coffee shop with extremely nice barista and workers. The cafe drinks are made fresh to order and can be highly customized. The pastries were well presented -we got the lemon loaf and Bomboloni and then a ham sandwich. The lemon loaf was okay and comparable to Starbucks lemon loaf. The Bomboloni was filled with pistachio and was tasty. The ham sandwich was on a light crusty focaccia brew with a mustard pistachio spread --delicious. We would have given it 5 stars except that the lines are so long --like really long -that's you can't really sit in the cafe and enjoy the wonderful food experience. Great place still to go! read more

We loved this little coffee and dessert shop. The coffee tastes amazing and the affogato I got was icing on the cake. I really appreciated the way the servers behind the counter treated us as if they knew us for years and gave us the best service. They were personable, attentive, quick, seemed to enjoy their work, and made the experience that much better. The tiramisu was delicious but I really did enjoy my affogato with pistachio gelato and an empty shell cannoli on top. I could've spent the whole day here. It's cozy and the coffee really does have a well rounded full bodied flavor. Love, love, love. read more

One of the best coffee shops I've ever been to! We were recommended to check out Cafe Olimpico and we were so glad we did. Very small shop (probably max 10 seats), with not much room to line up in either. Very succinct menu with such friendly baristas who are happy to answer any questions and provide and suggestions. The cannolis were freshly piped right in front of us and the other baked goods and sandwiches were all delicious. We are so glad we stopped by!! read more

Highly recommended! I came across this place close to Hotel William Gray, and was pleasantly surprised by how good it was! We ended up coming here a few times during our trip. This location is in Old Montreal, and I love how they have long opening hours (6 am to midnight). The cafe gets a lot of tourists, so English is pretty common when ordering. It's a small place with limited seating, so most orders are to go. The cappuccino was one of the best I ever had and highly recommend their baked pastries as well! The Nutella cannoli is so fresh. Glad this wasn't just a tourist trap and I can see why they're so popular. Amazing goods and service! read more

Cute ambience. Great friendly quick service. Tiramisu is one of the best we have had and in fact our son wanted it again the next night.

Not that they need my 5 stars but the staff and service at the Old Montreal location is just the best. Quick, professional and accommodating to requests. The frozen Crema is like crack in the best possible way. Simply the best espresso on the planet. read more

I like that the ice was crushed instead of cubed in the freddo, it was almost like a slushy but in the best way possible. I've only had a freddo with honey to sweeten, which they didn't have, but the natural sweetness from the milk was delicious. I can't remember which non-dairy milk they offer, but I opted for non-dairy milk. The Crema Caffe was amazing, it was smooth and very flavourful!! It is a great mid-day treat and pick-me-up at the same time! The line is generally pretty long, the wait was ~15mns. The space is connected to a small shop and hotel, there's space to sit and relax in the hotel portion. And to mention, there are public bathrooms for use too! read more

Yummy espresso and pastries!!! Service was great. Only downside was limited seating. That said, we went back multiple times for espresso!

Cafe Olympico was one of the best cafes I have ever been to. The service was phenomenal and the coffee could not have been better. The mocha was perfectly balanced with bitter coffee and rich chocolate without being sweet. The egg sandwich was served cold which I thought would be odd, but it was delicious! The cafe was adorable with plenty of seating. read more

This cute spot we got to check out when my friend and I visited Montreal. The gentleman at the front taking the orders was super nice and helping. He recommended the sandwiches to try and gave me a cute postcard souvenir along with a cookie with my order. Food was really good, along with the coffee. I heard there is going to be pop up in Toronto, and I can't wait to check this place again! Enjoyed my time there. Just know there isn't much seating available and is a small cafe, can be possible you may not find a seat right away. read more
