Our favourite café in Royalmount! We have been here a few times, & the service is always friendly & attentive. This time, we ordered a cappuccino, dulce de leche cake, & blue chai ube - all of which were excellent. The atmosphere/decor is cozy & inviting, perfect for catching up with friends or getting some work done.
Just walked in for a quick bite to go this morning & walked into a nice place with a friendly welcome. Placed order & did not have to wait long for it. Boy was I shocked when I opened my box of pancakes…. 😩 oufff what a disappointment … 3 lousy miniature & to be honest, looks & taste like they were reheated. Topped with some purple coulis, strawberries & blueberries. The taste of it all was absolutely bland. I honestly threw it away after 2 bites… & have the nerve to charge $20 for that plate. I work 2 min away so it was still warm the food.
The Flora fizz that the hostess/barmaid made was good.
You can give it a try … maybe other items are better.
Located within the Royalmount Mall, this café is a great spot for brunch. The dishes were tasty & felt lighter & healthier compared to many other brunch places. Despite being quite busy, the service was attentive. Solid 4.5/5.
Food was extremely fresh! Took the lox toast & loved it !! The vibe of the place is so cute as well!! Our waiter NAG was very very nice as well. Great service! It was also my birthday & they put a birthday song for me , sang me happy birthday & offered me a piece of cake: SO SWEET !!!! 10/10

I'm particular with details so I really like eating or sipping something with a touch of intricacy & Tommy Café has given me that kind of vibe. From the interior design & atmosphere to the food & drinks, they have truly gone above & beyond. Shout out to the workers here at Tommy's as well. Keep it up!!
Avocado toast was 10/10 absolutely fantastic! Fresh avocado & great toast. My friend had the Bae breakfast with toast, eggs, salad, potatoes & sausage & it was fantastic as well. Tommy gets it right at Royalmount too 💯
My favourite coffee! I'm so happy they opened one at Royalmount. The staff are very friendly, the food is amazing! & my absolutely favourite is their flat white 😊
Great place for breakfast/ lunch! They were very accommodating & super efficient. Everything we got was delish! Will be back here next time when visiting Montreal!
