Really liked the ambiance inside the cafe, quite cozy. I believe there was an upstairs floor to study & chill so I might try that next time. I got an iced matcha latte with vanilla syrup to go. It was well balanced in sweetness.
Service was fast & the staff there were very friendly & helpful.
Tommy Cafe has not missed at any location I've been to before this one, but this one just might be my favourite! They have made fantastic use of the space with seating on the ground & upper floor laid out in a comfortable way. The coffee is fantastic, as are the treats. I haven't had any meals here yet but they look dope. Service was wonderful as well as another plus. They keep the cafe clean & functional even with the high volume.

We were here for Tommy Café, such a cute spot! It has two floors with plenty of space, which makes it really comfortable to hang out. The coffee was good & came out quickly, & the service was great as well. I also loved the playlists they were playing. Overall, a really nice place to visit!
I had a really positive experience at TOMMY's Café. I ordered a hot chocolate & a croissant sandwich. Everything looked fresh & beautifully presented.
After taking a few bites of the salad, I realized that the sandwich contained meat, which I hadn't intended to order. It was my mistake for not checking more carefully when placing my order. I went back to confirm with the employee, & she kindly let me know that it did contain meat. I returned to my seat feeling a bit disappointed with myself for not paying closer attention.
A little while later, the staff member who had served me (Gabrielle) noticed I hadn't eaten the sandwich. She came over, kindly asked if I don't eat meat, & immediately offered to replace it with something I could eat, despite it not being her fault at all.
That small gesture truly made my day. It showed genuine care & attentiveness, & it turned what could have been a disappointing moment into something really meaningful.
It's rare to come across that level of kindness & customer service. I truly appreciated the experience & would definitely recommend this café for its outstanding service.
They close the main seating area early without warning & then there's no space to sit & finish your drink/food. I arrived 15 minutes before they closed the upstairs, & they provided no warning as I was checking out. Avoid this cafe if you intend to sit with your food/beverage.
Nice café! They didn't have bagel with cream cheese, but the latte was good & the croissant was fresh. Recently I went there again & the lavender latte was well made, though a bit too sweet for my taste. The framboise cookie was also tasty.
Tommy Café is a really cute. Loved the vibe. We went there for breakfast & had a good experience. A bit pricey place, but the atmosphere was nice & cozy, & the service was good. Overall, it was a pleasant spot to start the day. All for $75.

I work downtown & this café has become one of my go-to spots. The coffee is consistently good, the service is friendly, & the vibe is calm enough to take a break or get a bit of work done.
Stopped by this café while visiting downtown Montréal & really enjoyed it. The atmosphere is relaxed & it's a nice break from the busy streets. The coffee was solid & the pastries were fresh. Staff were friendly & helpful, which made the experience even better.
If you're exploring the city & want a comfortable spot to sit with a good coffee, this place is definitely worth a visit.
