Tommy Café receives broad praise for a warm, stylish ambience, a cafe vibe with plenty of natural light, and generous portions that make it a reliable brunch and breakfast spot in Montreal's Old Port. The food and coffee are frequently described as excellent or very good, with crowd-pleasers like avocado toast, eggs benedict variants, shakshuka, French toast, and comforting plates that feel comforting and well executed, while some dishes have disappointed regulars with dryness or sweetness. Service is commonly highlighted as friendly and attentive, though experiences note occasional slowness or busy crowds that lead to longer waits and, in a few cases, communication hiccups around water or dietary restrictions. The atmosphere and energy are repeatedly described as lively and welcoming, making it a popular spot for families, friends, and weekend gatherings, and the design and view from large windows add to the appeal. Pricing is sometimes described as a bit steep, but many feel the quality and portions justify the cost. Diners also stress the importance of clearly communicating allergies or dietary needs, as labeling can be uneven.
J'y ai été pour le brunch & j'ai trouvé les aliments peu frais. Les oeufs étaient très liquides dans mon assiette ainsi que dans celle de mon copain, & nous nous sommes sentis mal en sortant de là. Je ne recommanderais pas cet endroit. Service correct mais sans plus.
Una opción de desayuno / brunch excelente, el precio por platillo está entre $20 y 25 y las bebidas entre $5 y $10, el sabor es muy bueno y las porciones son adecuadas, 100% recomendado
Une belle découverte dans le vieux Montréal : Une ambiance brunch dans ce café super cosy. Le personnel est très accueillant & la cuisine simple, très bonne, les produits sont frais & les plats sont très bien présentés.
We came for brunch around 9:30am. There was a short 2 min wait as the table cleared. We ordered drinks & the s'mores waffle, Greek omelet, & an eggs Benedict. The portions were generously large, food tasted great. Service was a wee bit slow but still attentive. Would come back!
Stumbled upon the cage while looking for late brunch in Montreal. The service was fun & warm. We ended up joking with multiple servers who were also very serious about hospitality. The Athena avocado toast was fantastic, & the atmosphere was lovely & cozy. Felt like being back in a little French bistro in Paris.

We loved this spot for brunch! We were staying in Montreal for the weekend & after discovering it, we went back a second time the next morning. Service was wonderful & the baristas know what they're doing! The food was high quality & delicious. I had the Lyla Fizz & a matcha latte to drink & both were incredible! I loved the decor & felt like we were transported into a tropical destination. The cafe was tight on space but wasn't a problem for us. Thank you Tommy Cafe for starting our mornings off right!
Great breakfaat/brunch cafe. The prices are a bit high but the plates are good. I ordered the truffle eggs benedict & it was filling & tasty. You can tell they use alot of nature ingredients for their foods. The potatoes on the side by the way were excellent. I usually prefer crunchy potatoes but the way they seasoned them & cooked them to where they have a shape but easily turn into mashed potatoes once you eat it was amazing! They have another location around the block. I recommend if in the area & looking for a brunch spot.
We visited Montreal here this past weekend & we had breakfast/brunch here every day & we absolutely loved all the dishes! Shout out to Emily & all the staff including the chefs! They did such an amazing staff. Highly recommended for the food & service & location!
Such a lovely place for brunch, delicious food & great ambiance & our waitress Kaylee (sp?) was amazing, so friendly & attentive & very genuine. Would highly recommend!

This is the most amazing brunch place. I love going here with the girls for Sunday Mimosas. I really love the servers, they're always so friendly & really know what me & the girls like. Can't wait to come back for another Sunday brunch adventure.
Absolutely amazing atmosphere filled with happy people. Food was spectacular for a great price. The owner is one of the nicest people you could run into & makes sure the atmosphere is warm & friendly. If you don't know where to go for a brunch/lunch Tommy's Cafe is the place to go. Absolutely recommend.
I simply love this place. The food was so delicious, great nice portions & the service was quick & friendly. Everything was amazing & I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants breakfast or brunch.

Tommy is a delightful spot in Montreal that truly lives up to its reputation! The food was fantastic-everything was fresh, flavorful, & beautifully presented. Whether you're stopping by for brunch or a quick coffee, you won't be disappointed. The ambience is absolutely lovely, with stunning decor that creates a warm & inviting atmosphere. The combination of chic, modern touches & greenery makes it a perfect place to relax & enjoy your meal. It's definitely a busy spot, but the lively energy adds to the charm. If you don't mind the buzz of a popular cafe, Tommy is a must-visit for anyone in Montreal.
Cozy place for brunch - our first visit & choose this by googling for a breakfast place. No regrets! the food was amazing & you can tell it was made with passion. We had the Suzy Rise & Melted down. Coffee was fresh & delicious! Service was average not issue with us because they were super busy on a Saturday - it was crazy! Would recommend to anyone!
Food was very delicious. Cappuccino & Mochaccino were both good. The ambiance & atmosphere is very welcoming. Service was as good as it can get considering how busy the cafe is. I really liked the open kitchen. Highly recommend this cafe for breakfast or brunch.
