Review Summary

Tommy Café is described in reviews as a vibrant, photogenic spot in a historic building with a warm, multi level vibe and solid coffee and pastries. The atmosphere is praised for being cozy and versatile for work, brunch, or a casual hangout, though it can be crowded and seating can be hard to find and prices sometimes feel high for what is offered. Patrons frequently highlight avocado toast, croissants, and lattes, with matcha receiving mixed notes, and the location attracts locals and visitors who often queue but keep returning for the ambiance and quality.

We have iced coffees & breakfast sandwiches, they were delicious! Nice cosy looking place, quick enough service, just a little pricey. Good vibes.

The ambience looks really good, very well furnished. The service staff was very nice, but the café was not a professional barista. I really didn't like the coffee at all.

Cute & cozy cafe that makes very good coffee steps away from the Notre Dame Cathedral. It can get packed, but there are barstools by the windows where one can relax & sip drinks in peace while people-watching

The drinks are bland & overpriced. Definitely not a place to come & study as there are little no outlets for your computers or iPads. I think there are better coffee shops you can go too. As a side note, service is good, staff is friendly & the coffee shop itself is cute.

Tommy café is obviously a must if you are in Montreal. The place is gorgeous, the coffee tastes wonderful & the service is good. I'd say the only inconvenient is that it is a well-known place so it is often packed. I strongly recommend the avocado toast. They use thick slices of good quality bread, & the avocado is not over seasoned.

Came here on a Sunday morning & it was so incredibly busy we could barely get through the door. Ended up taking our coffees to go. The staff were great & worked so quickly despite how crazy busy it was.

We went there for breakfast, & the place was busy even on a weekday. Both the coffee & croissant were good, as was the vibe

Randomly got around the city & surprisingly found this cafe. I was so curious about macadamia latte since I had never seen. It was more smooth than what I thought. Worked well with espresso! The cafe provided spacious seating space. A good place to have a sip of coffee & study or work.

Beautiful place to take a cup of coffee, the food are very delicious & the service was pretty good. I really loved the place & coffee, there are many cozy spaces to enjoy your beverage & work online. It was a good stay.

It is a lovely coffee place. Usually crowded, but it talks by itself. You can have scones, croissants, or healthy breakfast in your little cozy table while surrounded by plants 🪴

Really disappointed in the place. You tip but you serve by yourself going up & down the stair to take your order (drinks). The avocado toasts are tasteless & when I asked to replace I was told I need to pay a difference (I asked to add an egg). I paid $60 for 2 simple toast, 2 coffee & 2 croissants.

Really cool loft style work cafe. Lots of chairs & tables & couches tucked around, so if you don't mind plonking your book or laptop down on the same coffee table as someone else you'll love it. High ceilings & lots of natural light & greenery. Their food menu was great & the breakfast croissant was delicious. The lucky charms latte was cute but too milky & had little flavor.

Has a lovely time here. We were there on Sunday around noon & it was packed. It took awhile to line up but the coffee was quick. You need to find your own seat & it took some time for food to come out but they were super busy. Everything tasted great but the breakfast croissant & salmon avocado toast was amazing. Highly recommend as the atmosphere was great with friendly staff.

Regular coffee nothing special almond chocolate croissant very hard to bite or sliced with knife. Kinda stale & not flaky at all. Very loud & crowded. I would only recommend to go not peak hours to take photos because it’s very nice interior & vibe
