Tamis Cafe

This quaint spot is on Fourth Ave, just a few steps off Bank street. The owner is incredibly friendly and the service is efficient. With red brick and wooden walls, big windows and bright coloured art, the ambiance is cheerful and relaxed. The food is a mixture of Filipino and classic Cafe offerings, along with a nice breakfast menu. I had the veggie crepe with peanut sauce and a latte, along with a table to myself on a Saturday. Whether you're looking for lunch, or just a nice spot to have a coffee and do some work, this is definitely my go to!

I visited here for my first time this weekend and I can't say enough good things about this spot. First, this is a family run cafe and they are truly the sweetest people. They were so hospitable, so kind, so attentive and caring. They really love their work and deeply care for their customers and it really showed. Next, the food here is AMAZING. I had the vegetarian crepe with peanut sauce and my partner had the marinated beef with rice and a fried egg. Both were phenomenal. If I'm to be totally honest, when they brought his dish out, it looked a bit bland, but with one bite of his dish - it is anything but. That beef was marinated to perfection. It's a really cute and cozy little spot too, a nice ambience and exposed brick. I like the vibe. Prices here are pretty reasonable too! Unfortunately, this place does not appear very accessible. There are a number of steps to get into the cafe. Overall, I'll be back to this spot and I highly recommend it.

The first Filipino cafe in my hometown! Such a treat to be able to be surrounded by delicious Filipino food. Lovely vibe, great coffee, and since it is family owned of course they're incredibly kind with wonderful service. Check it out if you love good food! The lonsilog is to die for!

Been there twice. Cosy vibe, friendly and obliging staff, really great coffee and tea, generous portions, and creative deserts. I find the desserts a bit sweet for my taste, but I suppose that's just a matter of personal preference. I will definitely be going back to sample their lunch dishes, which look good.
