Tom’s Place Restaurant

Tom's Place is one of those names I've heard in passing, but honestly never knew where it was and never been here. I didn't realize it was right in the heart of High Point until I was recently searching for a new breakfast place to try. It comes highly recommended, and I can see why!Now let me say: I'm only giving 4 stars for this visit because the food had some room for improvement. However, I honestly believe that most visits here would be 5-star visits and I expect to update my review next time I go and try different menu options.A diner with some modern decor and ample seating, it's easy to seat yourself in a comfortable booth as soon as you walk in. The staff are friendly and promptly greet you. We of course both enjoyed coffees, and I personally thought the mugs were very nice looking. They were a bit smaller than your average diner mug, but they were always kept full with hot refills so this was never a problem.There is a very strong menu offering, and you can also build essentially anything you want even if it's not on the menu. Today, I settled on the Southern Scramble, which is a bowl with a mixture of eggs, sausage, country ham, bacon, hash browns, peppers and onions, and gravy on top. This was a decent combination of flavors and very filling, although the hash browns were over cooked and tough, which took away a bit from the overall picture. It is served with a biscuit and while they look great, I thought it was a bit dry and bland compared to others I've had. I might go for the croissant option next time!My wife got chicken and waffles, but we were interested to learn that grilled chicken was an option to make it marginally more healthy. Was a great choice this was, and the grilled chicken was fantastic. I bet it would be great topping a salad. Of course the malted waffle was great too. It was a solid offering.We're definitely going to be coming back here for breakfasts, because I want to try their omelettes which looked tasty on other tables. Also, the dinner offerings look promising so I plan to try a later day visit as well.This is a great place, even if my first food choice was a bit middling. But I'll certainly be back, and you should try it too!

Good old classic diner. Girlfriend & I have found this place & it is perfect breakfast & lunch. The food is very good comfort food & perfect after night out. We split the double bacon cheese burger & blueberry pancakes. Love you can get both. Burger is yummy flat top style patty's & taste fresh. Pancakes are a sweet batter style that hit the spot with simple butter & syrup. The inside is classic diner & the waitstaff is always on point no matter busy the are. We frequently go weekly.

Tom's place has the best and closest thing to a home cooked breakfast around. I don't know how it took me so long to visit. I got french toast, scrambled eggs with cheese, and sausage patties with toast. It was all delicious and the service was great. Our drinks were never empty and we had all the condiments we needed when we needed them. There were a lot of smiling faces in this cute diner style space which I will be happy to revisit again real soon. I was so hungry I forgot to take pics but next time...

I just recently discovered this little gem and now breakfast anywhere else pales in comparison. The staff were so friendly and attentive, some of the best service I've had outside the expensive, higher end dinner clubs/steak houses. The place had a very clean and cozy diner vibe and a decent size dining area. It definitely isn't High Points best kept secret because it fills up very quickly; you might have to wait a bit if you've got a group. The food was phenomenal, a higher quality of classic diner breakfast food, think First Watch but without the complicated flavors. Another great surprise was the affordability of the food, especially considering the quality. Tom's Place is roughly a 20 minute drive from my house but it's worth the trip and I will be going back often. I highly recommend trying this place out!

Very good food and exceptional service at a fair price. I came for breakfast with family and it was delicious. They have a wide range of traditional Southern options like biscuits and gravy and cheese grits to the unexpected options like turkey bacon and vanilla yogurt parfait with fresh berries and granola. Pancakes to eggs Benedict. And excellent hash browns. Old school diner vibe. And warm welcoming service.

This place has a "modern diner" feel - it's nice. Get the burger with a side of fries! I ordered a cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and mayo. It. Was. Phenomenal. I ate every single bite of my burger and fries... because I simply couldn't stop. I'm sure the breakfast and daily specials are great and I will be back to try, but the burger and fries are where it's at! Service was very friendly and attentive!

Tasty breakfast with large portions; Heather's service is exceptional with an attention to details, clean throughout the restaurant and regular patrons quite friendly.

Delicious food, quick service and friendly staff. Victoria greeted us with a big smile and checked in with us often. Highly recommend the breakfast...but go hungry because the portions are big!

Tom's was full when we arrived but we seated ourselves very quickly. It seems that tables turn over fast here which is great for not keeping the wait long. The restaurant was clean and with a long counter with seating. Our server was very nice and friendly. She brought out coffee and provided "topping off" as needed. Our food arrived with not much wait and everything was perfect. My eggs were just as I ordered with plenty of hash browns and nicely cooked bacon. My husband enjoyed Neese's sausage along with his breakfast which came recommended by our server.We would definitely return the next time we are in town.

Everything all was great!!Always great service and good food. Highly recommend Do not have 85 characters to post
