Two popular Quebec-based brands make their way to the GTA

No need to pack your bags and head to Quebec because two of Montreal's most popular shops have opened up just outside of Toronto.

Tommy Cafe and Chocolato Ice Cream & Chocolate Factory recently opened their doors this January in downtown Oakville. These two spots share the same space, making it all too easy to hop from savoury to sweet in one trip.

As soon as the door opens, the sweet smell of rich decadent chocolate fills the air. This trendy spot offers all day brunch in a sleek environment, with a modern interior that includes comfy velvet seats and a very on brand, chocolate dip ceiling.

Tommy Cafe focuses their business around healthy and wholesome food options, that can accommodate many dietary restrictions. On the menu, find premium tea and coffee, which is a special in house blend ground fresh for every cup, as well as a variety of freshly baked croissants and brunch staples like the classic avocado toast. Tommy Cafe offers five plant-based milk options and many plant-based menu choices too.
