    From where I was seated, this is the front counter.

    Okay, I remember how I got here. At first, I had intended to get some brisket at Schwartz's and then didn't because I don't like rye bread, which is their only sandwich bread. Then, I went looking for a Portuguese restaurant since the streets around here have good Portuguese representation. There was one on St.-Laurent, but I wasn't crazy about the posted menu. I even went as far as to give brusque Chez Doval a second look, but their prices were much higher than I recall. Thus, I kept walking down the street toward Centre-Ville. Look at this! A bright looking and spacious Second Cup was a block or so down the street and I figured I could go in, recharge my phone, regroup, get something to eat and drink, and blend into the urban fabric of this fascinating French-Canadian city. It would be hard for a Second Cup to earn 5 stars, but this is still a very good store. It's a chain and one I much prefer over Starbucks when in the Maple Leaf Country. At this location, as I've already described, the interior is roomy, tidy, and with big windows all around and ample illumination. The hot drinks are reliable and they also feature nice looking baked goods. I didn't inquire about their preparing hot food, which I believe that, to some extent, they can do. The personnel was courteous and pleasant. Young people in the city of Montreal tend to have excellent bilingual skills. Finally, the prices are no surprise. They are standard coffeehouse prices. Maybe the four stars add up as follows: 1) clean and bright, 2) reliable hot drinks and baked goods, 3) pleasant service, and 4) fair prices. That said, why didn't I go right to this equation? Perhaps it's an issue with circumlocution. Befitting its location between downtown and Ave. Mont-Royal, a street that can cause my hair to stand on its ends, the people patronizing this Second Cup will definitely be colorful enough. And, because of stopping here and not having a full meal, I wound up at A&W on Avenue du Parc for a burger at around midnight, but I got an FTR out of that one.

    Perfect coffee shop that is a chain yet still feels like an independent good quality coffee shop. I was pleased to see they had a matcha latte so I ordered a small and we also ordered a regular latte. We found a table easily and were served our coffee promptly. The matcha was delicious. Not too sweet yet it did have a hint of sweetness so it was easy to enjoy without having to purchase a sweet pastry. The restaurant was nice and clean and the employees were very friendly. I asked for nonfat milk for my matcha and they made it the way I requested no problem. There are lots of locations so we will definitely stop by this chain at least one more time before our trip is over!

    Welcome to the NEW Second Cup! Craft Coffee Bar? Pour Over? Steampunk? Espresso? Phone Charging Station? A Barista that knows about Coffee Profile and can do a decent pourover? I just love the new concept.

    Went here a bunch because the coffee was good but the waitress was extraordinarily rude when we came later on to pick up croissants

    Café Olimpico truly lives up to its reputation and then some. From the moment you walk in, the…read moreatmosphere feels warm, authentic, and full of character -- the kind of place where you know you're about to experience something special. 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.

    A montreal classic. Tiny shop, only meant for take out coffees. Almost always a line but it goes by…read morequick. I like their remix a lot (a layered mix of cold espresso, caffe crema soft-serve, with hot frothed milk & chocolate). I recommend it to anyone who likes a nice sweet but not too sweet coffee treat in the summer. The affogato also isn't bad, just a bit too much ice cream for me. Their mocha is one of the best.
