Omps is a commune in the Cantal department in south-central France.

It comprises a collection of pleasant cottages, many with lauze roofs, surrounding the village church, but there is also an imposing Manor House. It has recently undergone improvements to the public spaces.[_citation needed_] The village's only bar closed in 2006, and with the exception of a garden centre there are no other commercial premises.[_citation needed_]
