| - If you haven't been to Tom's Tavern since the recent remodel, you NEED to go back! They reopened the doors in October 2011 and the place looks great! Oh, and the food on the new menu is good too!! The new owners did a fantastic job of updating the decor with a clean, modern look and yet keeping the feel of a Phoenix classic!
Open seven days a week with breakfast, lunch, happy hour, and dinner! Average lunch is about $10-12 a plate, which isn't cheap, but with the good food, cool inside atmosphere, and adorable patio I will gladly pay a few bucks extra to support a great local business! Located right on the corner of First Avenue and Washington, just across from CityScape, the patio makes a perfect place for people watching on a nice Arizona day (which we are lucky enough to have so many of this time of year)!
Great food choices, sandwiches ranging from a Reuben to a Cuban ("no more rhymes now, I mean it"), delicious varieties of smoked meats, fish and chips and fish tacos, soups (including a daily 'blackboard special'), and salads. Wings, nachos, sliders, and a hummus appetizer that I would eat as my lunch entree. Overall, it is a great mix of food without being too overwhelming of a menu.
I love the soup and salad combo (your choice of salad) and can't wait for an excuse to go back for happy hour. I almost cried when I noticed there is a $5 GLASS OF WINE LUNCH SPECIAL FROM 11-2 . . . I had to go back to work . . . what a tease!
Happy hour is 2:30 - 6:30 on weekdays with food and drink specials. And a weekend brunch on Saturday and Sunday from 8:00am-2:00pm. Pretty much, any time of day you could stop into Tom's and find something to tempt your taste buds!
Check it out!
