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.

Mixed review. Pistachio & chocolate croissants were good, our breakfast plates were a different story.

It's hard to find seats here, but their chocolate croissants are the best.

Their signature cereal latte is very special… i didn't like it tbh… the chocolate cookie was okay. The line up was long so if you are on rush please go to grab your coffee to other store

If you are looking for a coffee break, maybe in between work or study sessions? Grab a coffee or a matcha at Tommy Café!! You can even splurge yourself to a cookie... I recommend the matcha & white chocolate chip cookie Definitely add to your food list!!! If you have time, check out other reviews on my insta (@lifewithkarbs)

Tommy Cafe is such a gem! The carrot cake was absolutely delicious & fluffy - so fresh & perfectly sweet. The brownie was rich, chocolatey, & super yummy. & the lattes were just perfect! The whole vibe of the place was so calm & chill, making it ideal for catching up with my friend. We could just relax & chat, & it felt like hanging out at home. The cozy ambiance, paired with a lovely view, made it a memorable visit. I'd totally recommend Tommy Cafe for anyone looking for a cozy spot with amazing treats!💚💚

The place is super adorable with the most beautiful couches. Their "small" hot chocolate is HUGE. It's also very yummy. It's a great spot for meeting up with someone or getting some work done in a nice environment.
