We had breakfast here & unfortunately it wasn't a pleasant experience. The high chair for babies hasn't been cleaned or wiped in years & had food stuck on it everywhere. We had to clean it thoroughly ourselves since we did not want to get our child sick. We ordered pancakes & the cali Benedict. The pancakes were tough & hard & just not fluffy. The eggs in the Benedict were not poached, & instead the yolk was boiled. Overall a sub-par experience.

Came here for breakfast on a weekday & we were so glad we got a table. The staff was amazing & the decor felt very eccentric. All the food tasted delicious & I especially loved the lavender latte. Highly recommend visiting Tommy Café!

Lovely spot for an early breakfast in old Montreal - warm atmosphere, delicious food, our server Elle was very informed about my celiac dietary restriction's impact on the menu's offerings & even provided some recommendations for other gluten-free eats to check out during our stay in the city! I must add that the lavender latte was absolutely delectable. :)

What a charming place we chose for breakfast. The food was delicious & the portions are large, too much for us British who prefer a light breakfast so I would recommend one to share. The atmosphere is great & very unique well worth a visit

Had a great breakfast experience at Tommy's in downtown. The food was delicious & the service was absolutely top notch friendly, attentive, & welcoming.

Just one small suggestion: warming the coffee cup before pouring would help keep the coffee hot for longer. Other than that, everything was spot on.

Overall, a solid 5-star experience. Will definitely be back! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
