Tommy Café draws a mixed picture from recent reviews, with a stylish, roomy interior and a friendly, attentive staff that many describe as welcoming, while others note that the coffee can be mid or weak and some pastries seem days old. Positive impressions highlight great espresso, tasty sandwiches and salads, and attractive presentation, along with a vibe that many find inviting; negative comments call out lukewarm meals, pastries not worth the price, and prices that feel high for what’s offered. Several reviewers mention limited wifi access and hours, making long study sessions impractical, even as the space is praised for decor and comfort. The ambiance and decor get frequent praise, with mentions of ample seating and a cozy atmosphere, and anticipation remains for future lunch or happy hour options as the Chomeday location goes through soft opening. Overall Tommy Café is seen as a desirable neighborhood spot with potential, delivering good coffee and food but with some inconsistency in quality and value.
Finally, a cute little coffee shop in Laval with a really nice vibe. Not necessarily a full breakfast place, but perfect for good coffee & a small snack or dessert.
Been there maybe three times , the coffee is mid nothing super special & it was 8,50 for a regular latte with cold foam which is super overpriced its cheaper at starbucks at this point
way better out there
Finally got to try Tommy café. The interior is pleasant. Quite spacious relative to previous restaurant. But, as for the coffee, a bit weak & bland because my cortado wasn't a cortado. &, the almond croissant/pastry, well was quite, days old. This was brought up to the counter, where the owner proceeded to take it apart with his fingers. Exchanged it for a regular croissant, price difference was not returned. No apologies either. It's a shame in ways. No hard feelings though. Wishing them continued success because the neighborhood needed a spot like this.
Its a beautiful Café! Love the decor & staff was so friendly! The coffee was delicious as was the sandwich/salad plate i had. I would definitely recommend this place & I cannot wait to go back.
We've been to other locations & everything was always good there but we had a really bad experience at this location. Half of my plate was not edible, I ordered scrambled eggs, potatoes, & bacon. The potatoes were unevenly cooked, half of them were overcooked & half of them were undercooked. I ordered scrambled eggs & they served me a cut up omelette. It was dry & spongey, I couldn't eat it. The only edible thing on the plate was the salad & the bread. It took forever to get my plate & the food was cold when I got it. The coffee is good but I would think twice about getting breakfast here.
I am a matcha lover & was hoping this one wouldn't disappoint but it did. 1$ extra for maple syrup (couldn't taste it) & another 1$ for oatmilk (I thought most coffee shops were done making you pay for your lactose intolerance lol). That being said, I didn't take away 2 stars for that second point but truly because that matcha only tasted like warm milk. You can see the color; light beige....where's the matcha?! No clue. Absolutely disappointing. Didn't make me want to try anything else. That being said, my boyfriend loved the coffee so I guess some items will disappoint while others will delight you. But for the price, it just stinks extra when you're disappointed.
The music was pretty loud & it truly is a vibe for louder crowds & not so much calm moments with your significant other; which is totally fine for some but not to my personal preference.
