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 staple, praised for its inviting vintage decor, relaxed atmosphere, and excellent service. Visitors frequently commend the high quality of the food and the creative selection of drinks, including mocktails and wines, making it a popular destination for brunch, lunch, or evening gatherings. While many appreciate the cozy setting and outdoor terraces, some feedback suggests that portions can be pricey relative to their size, and there are occasional requests for a broader range of vegetarian options or more consistent menu pricing.

Ouf, I cannot believe they have the nerve to sell a $15 saq bottle of Italian frizante, the Ca Di rajo Lemoss, for $11 a glass & $45 a bottle 😯. At least sell me private import bottles for that price, not something I can pick up myself. Service was great though so I hope the markup is going to good salaries! We were seated next to very loud speakers so I don't recommend it for a first date or if you are looking for something cozy.

Quel bonheur d'avoir un commerce aussi charmant dans notre quartier ! Le café est délicieux, on peut même accompagner celui-ci d'un croissant de chez la boulangerie Automne ! Il me tarde de les visiter en soirée pour prendre un verre de vin ❤️. Longue vie à Tabac

This is a gorgeous spot, the music, the decor, the patio, everything is tremendous. The food is exceptional - had the ceviche, matchstick fries, crudités, & a few excellent glasses rose. Patrick, the owner, goes above & beyond, ensuring excellent service. Will be back!!

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.
