Tommy Café offers a stylish, cozy downtown vibe with solid coffee and fresh pastries that many reviewers praise, including croissants, cookies, and avocado toast; the atmosphere and decor are described as welcoming and conducive to meetings or a relaxed break; coffee quality varies by drink and time of day, with morning drip praised while some afternoon cups feel burnt or underwhelming; service is friendly but not always fast, and occasional delays are blamed on staff chatting, which may frustrate those in a hurry; seating can be hard to find and the upstairs area is valued by some, with prices sometimes seen as a bit high; overall the place is considered a worthwhile stop for locals and visitors looking for a pleasant cafe experience in Montreal.
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've been several times to this location.
Their drip coffee early in the morning is better; their afternoon one is burnt, disgusting & therefore not worth your money.
Their Cappuccino is really good if you like a lot of milk. If not your best option is a Cortado which has the same two espresso shots but less milk & I believe is cheaper.
The vibe of the place is nice, nice decoration, great playlists but service is not the greatest. The staff takes a lot of time preparing orders & what is disappointing is to see that whats slows them is the fact they are chitchatting in Portuguese…if you are in a rush maybe considering going elsewhere.
Cute place to sip tea, coffee, or cocktails with friends. Friendly service.
Just ate a small piece of cake called dulce de leche , & it was so-so.
Overall not WAW but okay.
Cute place
I recently went for a business meeting & had a great experience. The coffee was excellent, the decor was beautiful & the food was amazing. The service was friendly & attentive, which made the whole visit even better. Highly recommend.10/10
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.

I asked my coffee to go & they gave it to me sur place. Besides the cafe was not even full & they were way behind on the orders. The barista was sneezing a lot over the coffees she was making at the time ( disgusting) Also they over charge for a simple latte . This place is overrated. There are better coffee places indeed & at least the price is worthy. Good music at the site.
Lattes tasted just the milk no smell of taste of coffee
Tiramisu was below average
Ive been to other tommy cafes & this one doesn't hold the same standards

Excellent food & coffee. Plenty of space to read, meet with friends, or have a quick bite. My recommendations are the lavender latte, chia pudding & bagel with lox.
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)
