    Lox
    James L.

    As a lox lover I was elated to see just how affordable the lox is here! It was only 8.85$ (picture attached to prove it) and delicious! They warmed it up for me on a panini press which was greatly appreciated. It was moderately busy when I went but there was still seating available to wait and enjoy my order. Coffee is also great here as well.

    Croissants fresh daily

    Cute corner café, dog friendly, nice back yard patio. Amazing croissants, espresso just o.k. However, when crowded your order may get lost in the shuffle. Others behind in line got served food (warmed or not) and coffee way before us. The male server was not apologetic, but the barista was.

    Cute little cozy corner where I worked

    What a wonderful little discovery. Got in the city quite early before a contract and this was opened early, in the area. Now, as a vegan, they did not have anything at first site, but they were so determiend to make it happen, I ended up eating their spinach wrap with vegan pesto! It was so perfect. Truly amazing staff, loe the decor and the quiet ambiance. Perfect to work! Definitely will go back!

    Front entrance

    Excellent location for a hot coffee and delicious pastry. Right down the street from the Hyatt Centric. Had a terrific conversation with the owner. We really enjoyed our visit.

    Excellent coffee shop in Montreal! So kind and accomadating. Fresh croissants made daily too!

    Loved the take away service! Got two coffees, a couple different delicious baked goods, and it did not cost that much. I loved the cheeky sign!

    The pistachio cream chocolate croissant is to die for. This is what every chocolate croissant should be. The coffee was excellent as well.

    We tried several and loved the chocolate pistachio croissant the most but also enjoyed the cheese scone and lavender apricot scone.

I ordered my raspberry and custard danish to pair with my Americano coffee... but I also wanted something more substantial so I went with the pancetta. Well, I thought I was ordering the pancetta, when I pointed at the item with the sign for it, it was actually a ham and cheese croissant...but until they served it I didn't know that's what I had pointed to. When I questioned it that it didn't look like pancetta they said that people always mix that up... I guess maybe they ought to display it differently, but they happily made me the pancetta and I took it to go because at that point I had already bit into the ham and cheese and that along with the danish and coffee, it was enough for then... They didn't charge me for the pancetta! That was NICE, so I gave them an extra tip in the jar, because they were very gracious about it. The danish was very good and went nicely with the coffee. I enjoyed my window seat overlooking the street (until the bee came....) Later, when I went to eat the pancetta, I unwrapped it and found it to be barely filled with any meat, but certainly plenty of greens. It wasn't pleasant, so I didn't really take but a couple bites before throwing that away. I'm glad I didn't pay for it, if that's how it normally comes. Overall I'd go again and order the danish and coffee. The ham and cheese was actually pretty good too. But I'd be careful on the pancetta.. maybe it was a one-off situation.

It can get busy and the lines form out the door, but the pastries and coffee are worth it. We ordered the chocolate and pistachio filled croissants and donuts. I would rate both chocolate and pistachio filled croissants a 9/10 and the donut versions of each a 7/10. I felt the croissants tasted better and had more filling. We ordered the Remix which is authentic freddo expresso, cafe crema soft serve and topped off with hot frothed milk and chocolate. This was a 10/10 and was every bit of amazing as it looks in the picture. Service was fast and friendly. One note, they don't have flavored coffees, so I couldn't order a caramel latte, for example. Overall, great coffee shop that we enjoyed every day during our stay.

We ordered a hot chocolate, cappuccino, tiramisu, and an affogato, and every single item exceeded expectations. The hot chocolate was rich, smooth, and indulgent without being overly sweet -- pure comfort in a cup. The cappuccino was perfectly brewed with bold espresso flavor and beautifully textured milk, exactly how a great Italian-style coffee should be. The highlight of our visit, without question, was the affogato. It was hands down the best I've ever had. The pistachio gelato was unbelievably creamy, nutty, and flavorful, and when paired with the hot espresso, it created an unforgettable balance of temperature and taste. It was truly out of this world and worth the visit on its own. To finish, the tiramisu was light, perfectly layered, and not overpowering -- a flawless end to an already incredible experience. Everything tasted fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and authentic. Café Olimpico isn't just a café -- it's an experience. Exceptional quality, consistency, and passion in every cup and dessert. Highly recommended, and absolutely a place we'll keep coming back to.

The restaurant didn't provide a high chair for our baby, which was a bit disappointing. The service was good with our waitress checking with us to order and being prompt and attentive. Here is what we ordered: Grilled Cheese O+G (8/10) - the bread with the grilled cheese and caramelized onions were cooked well. The homemade ketchup had a sweet taste to it and was brought out a little colder than room temperature. I probably would have preferred the ketchup/tomato sauce to be a bit warmer. The Chicken Melt (8/10) - this sandwich was pretty big. It had grilled chicken in a creamy sauce, some Cole slaw (actually a lot of Cole slaw) and some dill pickles. The sandwich was a bit messy to eat and I think it had a little too much Cole slaw, but it was a good sandwich, nonetheless. Overall, I good experience with a few suggestions in my review that I think would have made it really great.
