Food wise, I ordered the Sandwhich Dej (breakfast sandwich) and it was real delicious. The vibes here are super chill and relaxed. I love the to turquoise colour booths as well as two larger wooden tables at the back for groups. Another cool feature is that they have a huge outdoor seating area right outside the cafe so even if it's packed inside, you can hang outside to drink your coffee, read your book, and enjoy the sunshine!

The latte I had at this bakery was fantastic! I also tried an almond pistachio chocolatine which was awesome; the filling was nice and abundant, you could scoop it with a spoon!

I would definitely make the trip out for another latte!

The star of course being what the bakery is named after. Probably one of the best Croissants I've ever had. So flaky and airy, truly one of the best. They also carry croissants that are vegan. Regular croissants were only 2.15!! For some reason though, every time we'd try to order baguettes they were always out so I'm guessing that they're spectacular as well. There was one day where I ordered a croissant that had cinnamon and raison and was shaped more like a cinnamon roll than a croissant and oh my gosh was that good!

They specialize in something called "Third Wave Coffee" (I think I've got the terminology right) and are very passionate about the nuances of all things coffee. And they love to share their knowledge! It's actually neat, even for a non-connoisseur like me, to learn a bit... and, mostly, to see their authentic passion for the craft. I had a cold brew iced coffee. It was great and they let me try a few sips at different sweetness levels before buying - I thought that was nice of them! I'll definitely revisit - even though I don't live in the neighbourhood ;-)

I gave her a couple warnings not to talk about me but she was very intent on making me feel unwelcome and undeserving of anything...even air. I think this woman should be fired.

Café Olimpico landed on my radar via my brother. When he visited Montreal a few years back, he…read morevisited here and had good things to say. During my own research, I also learned this was a popular spot known for their high quality Italian pastries. Since we were in Mile End and looking for some coffee and carbs, we thought it would be a good place to check out, so off we went. The café sits on a corner among several other commercial businesses; the entrance catches the eye with a hunter green awning that dons the Olympic torch and rings, as well as some outdoor seating. The inside very much gives off Italian café vibes - it's a medium-sized open area with tables scattered throughout. The production counter sits to the left where orders are placed, and televisions with different sports are projected across the perimeter. In addition to this location in Mile End, they have three other locations. We definitely wanted to get some coffee, but I didn't want to leave without browsing their bakes so I was scanning what they had. They have a good variety of coffee beverages, as well as several pastries. I ultimately decided to get a cappuccino, and we split three bakes: a pistachio cornetto, a ricotta bomboloni, and an amaretto cookie. The bakes were good. The cornetto was filled with pistachio cream which is kinda played out due to the Dubai chocolate craze - but the cornetto was nice and airy with a good filling ratio. The bombolini was also good as was the cookie - really high-quality bakes all around. Service was good, and overall I really enjoyed my experience at Café Olimpico. The coffee and pastries were good, and the vibes are on. I wouldn't hesitate to return the next time I'm in Montreal.
