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!

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!

My wife & I spent 5 days in Old Montreal. We came accross Tommy's Cafe. Totally fell in love with this place. Wonderful environment with exceptional staff. Everyone was very friendly & helpful. We ate their 3 different times. My favourite meal was the Bae. I dont eat bread often but made the exception here. So fresh! Please get a cup of coffee, the best. We will return in October during our next visit. Keep up the great work.

Tommy Café est vraiment un des cafés les plus impressionnants à Montréal. Le fait qu'il soit dans un ancien bâtiment, avec ses hauts plafonds & son ambiance historique, crée une atmosphère incroyable. Le café était excellent. C'était une expérience vraiment agréable.
