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.

loved the interior & my drink was elite. giving 4 stars bc i wish they had more than just a couple of vegetarian starters as mains. also def prepare to spend some $$$ because the prices are high for the portions. 💅✨

what a beautiful place but unfortunately the drinks are very unreasonably priced ($17+ for a martini that takes 20 minutes to get to your table). we were there at 9:45 & kept being reminded by the waiter that they were starting their close (when they supposedly close at midnight on fridays). I live in the area but unfortunately it's difficult to make it a go-to spot because of the prices.

It's a nice place, Not too far from my home. Went for drinks only, but the food looked good. People working there are nice, & make a difference. Ordered a ''' Cuba Libre'' & when they served it to me, they told me that they put a''personal twist to the recipe. & if I did not like it, they would change it to an''original'' & it was really good & made a', boring''''Cuba libre'' a bit different. But the price for drink are a bit high. 2 glass of sangria, 1 ''Cuba libre'' & 12 Oyster was about over 50$.... They know nothing else is around ....

Went last night with my partner & we loved it. We were served by the owner Patrick, just an amazing guy. He even brought the chalkboard with the drink list over to our table! Can’t recommend this place highly enough.
