About

Tabac Villeray functions as a quintessential local hub that highlights the robust traditions of Quebecois comfort food. The menu centers on expertly prepared poutine, featuring thick-cut fries smothered in authentic squeaky cheese curds and a rich, savory gravy. Beyond the classic fries, the kitchen offers an array of handcrafted sandwiches built on crusty, fresh bread and filled with high-quality deli meats or vegetarian ingredients. An extensive selection of caffeinated beverages complements the food offerings, providing a quick energy boost for patrons on the move. The interior layout prioritizes efficiency and a utilitarian aesthetic, mirroring the functional nature of a traditional newsstand-style café. This establishment serves as a reliable destination for those seeking straightforward, flavorful meals prepared with consistent attention to essential culinary components and texture.

Review Summary

Tabac Villeray is widely regarded as a charming and versatile neighborhood destination known for its inviting vintage decor, relaxed atmosphere, and excellent drink selections, including creative cocktails and mocktails. While feedback regarding the food is generally positive, with guests praising the high-quality ingredients and generous portions, some diners find the pricing high relative to portion sizes or note occasional inconsistencies in service and brunch quality. Despite these minor critiques, the friendly staff, pleasant terraces, and cozy environment make it a highly recommended spot for everything from a casual coffee or quick drink to a full meal, cementing its reputation as a beloved local gem.

Thoroughly enjoyable experience, 10/10 would recommend!

The inside is pretty & inviting, but there are also two terasses - one in the front & one in the back. Eating outdoors in the summer in Montreal is the way to go & the back terasse was especially nice with the added privacy.

The food was great, no notes. We especially enjoyed the chicken burger, the salmon tartare, the oysters & the fried pickles.

A special thanks to our server Dominic who was warm & attentive.

spent an evening there with friends. First time there. Very pleasantly happy. The atmosphere was so wonderful. Not too loud. The food is great (healthy, but not too much - a bit of everything). Staff is quick & attentive, but not overbearing. So lovely - will hopefully go again.
