Review Summary

Tommy Café is widely celebrated for its stunning architecture and inviting, cozy atmosphere situated in the heart of Old Montreal, making it a popular destination for both locals and tourists. Many visitors praise the high quality of the coffee, particularly the lattes and espresso-based drinks, alongside a variety of fresh pastries and flavorful brunch options like avocado toast. While the unique, multi-level seating and vibrant decor contribute to an aesthetic experience, the cafe is frequently very busy, which can lead to limited seating and wait times. Opinions on the service and food consistency remain mixed, as some guests appreciate the friendly and accommodating staff, while others find the pricing high and the environment crowded. Ultimately, it remains a go-to spot for those seeking a memorable cafe experience in a beautiful historic setting.

The line at 10:00 on Saturday was about a 20 minute wait. Staff were pretty good & there is limited seating but it's not bad.
Coffee itself was pretty good & the prices are fair for downtown Montreal. It's also a fairly consistent spot for quality of coffee & the atmosphere is relatively good as well.

I wish they had locations outside of Quebec! The breakfast sandwich really hit the spot & coffee terrific!
We went to a few different locations & found that the downtown spot only had the breakfast sandwiches- in old montreal it was more of a sit down space.
If you need an avocado toast fix or a matcha this is your place!

Stumbled upon Tommy Café last Saturday while exploring the neighbourhood & immediately felt at home with the warm lighting & low-key vibe. I ordered their avocado toast & it was honestly one of the better versions I've had in the city, perfectly seasoned with a nice crunch. The staff were super friendly & didn't rush me even though I camped out for a couple hours with my laptop. Definitely coming back next weekend, this spot has become my new favourite Saturday morning ritual.

The place looks really cool & promising, we ordered two iced drink to be told after 26 minutes of waiting that the drink we ordered couldn't be made cold cause they had no more ice.. no explanation or apology given, just a shaken cashier trying to lie that they told us not to be reprimanded by whoever was in charge..

All we wanted was an iced latte, shouldn't be rocket science to tell someone they don't have any cause they ran out of ice

Won't go back
