Got a matcha latte that was terrible, friends got a cappuccino & a regular coffee, they were barely warm & the cappuccino had no milk foam. The breakfast pastries were obviously not fresh. The music in the background was so loud I couldn't peacefully have a conversation. I will give credit where it is due, I was able to get my matcha latte exchanged & payed the difference for a more expensive drink, the service was decent, the restaurant is cute but for a café the thing it messed up the most is the coffee which is obviously an issue

Tout était bien, sauf le wifi. On me donne un wifi qui fonctionne pas. & apparement, il est seulement valide pour 2h. Je trouve que cette politique affecte l'expérience d'un bon coffee shop. Sinon le reste était bien 👌🏼
Good atmosphere & friendly service, but coffee was cold & potatoes didn't taste fresh. Not what you expect from a place that's a bit overpriced for brunch compared to similar spots.
The place is cute inside & the staff was nice but a bit careless I would say
This is my third time going & honestly I have to say not impressed at all
I usually like to give a place many chances before I set a standard or review but I can confirm everytime I've gone the coffee has a weird aftertaste & very watery tasting , the food is not good & very cheap on portions but forget the portions aside the flavour & quality I got a ceaser salad I don't know what dressing they putting but there is 0 flavour to it , very watered down & the salad was like they put the lettuce with water or something because my salad within seconds of being served was like soggy, wilted & the bottom of the bowl had sooo much liquid that was not dressing was very odd & taste was not there at all there was 0 flavour at all the croutons were very cheap quality no flavour croutons it tasted as if I was eating a soggy water soup salad very off
I tried my friends Buddha bowl was no salt lacking flavour & portion was tiny
As for sandwich of my other friend we tried decent nothing to rant about but not awful
Other times I've been I had the pistachio croissant that I could give the credit was good I enjoyed that but over all not somehere I would return again after giving it 3 tries I've been fairly disappointed each time
No way I payed 10$ for a coffee & added lucky charms for 1$ just to receive it without any marshmallows. That's not okay if they don't have anymore they should say it when I pay not make me pay for it…
Tommy Café is a cozy spot with amazing coffee, fresh food, & a great vibe. The staff are friendly & the whole experience makes it a place you'll definitely want to come back to.
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.
