A true old fashioned cafe!! AWESOME breakfast!! Don’t forget the sweets too! Cash only!!!
I love Tommy’s. Quick, easy, great food. As casual as it gets. Lots of regulars. Low cost.
I made it into West Davenport via a trip down to the Freight House Farmer's Market this morning. After getting a bit of Kombucha and hanging around, I needed some lunch. A quick review of the places nearby led me to Tommy's Cafe. Seemed like a nice place to try out. I'm glad I decided on Tommy's this morning. It's an experience in and of itself, at least for me as someone living well away from west Davenport. The diner is a true hole in the wall. The floors have that tile characteristic of nearly every building built in the 80s or 90s and the booths are that light pink I stereotypically envision every diner has. In keeping with their story, it's plainly obvious that one half of the restaurant was the original space (wood paneling walls) and the other half was an expansion (normal looking cream colored drywall). There's nothing wrong with this - it's a neat feature of the space that highlights its history. Hungry for lunch, I ended up getting a burger and fries, both of which were out to me within 10 minutes. Both were solid - the burger was filling and exactly what I'd expect a diner burger to be. The fries still had small bits of oil on them sizzling ever so slightly. They had the right combination of crispy and fluffy that crinkle cut fries should have. Truly, this place is a greasy spoon worth visiting. I need to come back at least one more time to try their donuts and/or other baked goods. They are prominently featured, but I was too full upon leaving to consider them. At any rate, if you're in this part of Davenport, you should stop into Tommy's at some point. Get a good meal from a local institution and hang out for a while. Thanks Tommy's!
Wonderful people and great food.....cudos to the cooks..... even my bird loves the food....
Great place for Sunday donuts, my kids and I love them, they are the perfect balance of fluffy and dense pastry…we mostly get the chocolate frosted raised and maple or chocolate long johns…cash only
Even in the heart of the city there are places that take me back to living in a small town where people interact as if they go there every day and possibly work there. Great food at a decent price and a very helpful staff! I ate there for breakfast and was not disappointed!
Incredible customer service! They even made minnie mouse shaped pancakes without us asking! Reuben and Fries were delicious and the breakfast special with bacon sausage pancakes and egg is perfect for my kid! Try out this local hidden gem!
I haven't eat there before but I'm sure is very good and good services I only go there to buy Donuts 🍩🍩🍩🍩
