Loved our breakfast at the Tommy Café. Food was really inventive, modern & most importantly delicious. We had two types of the avocado toast & my son had the pancakes. Everyone loved everything. Seating is eclectic so you grab what you can find, but I don't feel like you have to wait long as most people are in & out so tables become available fairly quickly. We started at bar type stools but quickly switched to a table for all 4 of us. I definitely recommend as either a breakfast or lunch spot while exploring old town & Notre Dame. We went back for a 2nd meal!

We were Montreal for 3 days & came here every day for breakfast. Dirty chai is a must! I had the tuna salad, the salmon bagel & tuna toast & all were delicious & portions huge. Loved it!

Great food & atmosphere. Their tables are a touch close together, so unless the people next to you are tiny humans, you can look forward to a bit of a struggle as they get to the banked seating, but otherwise, no complaints. The service was great & the food was delicious. Our server helped us make educated decisions, but TBH, I'm not sure we could go wrong here with any choice.

There was a bit of a wait when we arrived, but they have a great system & called within 7 minutes of a 15 minute wait to let us know our table was ready.

I actually liked these guys so much that when I needed a coffee to-go, I popped in for that too. Super friendly staff & they know their coffee & food!
