Food is good service is good. There is nothing fancy about this place The ambiance is quirky almost funny. If you want fancy this any your place Just a bunch of truck drivers stories and maybe a few lies and laughing. They never make my wife feel uncomfortable When ever in in the area we try to stop by and Larry seems to remember us read more

Went here with the wife for breakfast. Service was good, waitress and cook were super friendly! Menu was super cheap and gave more portions than advertised which is a huge plus, but the dinner is situated between two wash bays and the smell was absolutely disgusting. I couldn't hardly stand to eat while smelling such a fowl smell. Cool concept, but needs better ventilation to not smell so terrible. Cannot recommend at this time on that alone unfortunately. read more

Food was very good great flavor real beef burgers. Service was so nice. Staff is extremely friendly and will come talk to you like you're at a relatives house. Ambiance is about as eclectic as you can get. The restaurant is in a blue metal building that also has car or truck wash. Not many places can you get a breakfast omelette biscuits and gravy and a car wash. This place is amazing. If you're on the 94 around Oakdale. You've gotta go check it out very good food. Larry if you can sir, add smash burgers to the wonderful menu. Thanks for the hospitality! read more

Laughing Larry's Lunch Room - Bacon cheeseburger with cream cheese and jalapeños and she grilled the onions for me. - American Near Me - Tomah, Wisconsin

My meat lovers omelette was way overcooked. My previous pics show the perfection that Larry delivered. The girls now need to learn to cook. Service was good. Bathroom was clean. Ordered a $5 cinnamon roll to go. Not worth $5. My wheat toast also tasted funny. Love the old Larry's Lunchroom. read more

You will not find better quality OR quantity of food at such a reasonable price ANYWHERE else! I'm fortunate to live only 3 miles from Larry's, so I indulge in breakfast there frequently. YUMMY! read more

I had Larry's bacon cheese burger and my friend had biscuits and gravy. Both meals were very good. I would have preferred sliced cheese on my burger but Larry was trying out chicken fajitas so I assume that is why he used shredded cheese on my burger. The service was fine but some instructions as to where the menu was would have been nice. The place was clean and clearly a favorite for truckers. Larry's is different but an experience and would for sure go back if passing through again read more

Total dive restaurant that was worth the stop. It's like walking into a neighborhood joint. Larry is there and will sit and chat with you. I had a burger and it was really good. Can't wait for our next trip up north for our next stop read more

This place looks like you would never catch COVID again if you ate here. It's a small unassuming hole in the wall attached to a truck wash. If your name is Larry, you'll be able to get your picture on the wall. If you're just a normal citizen then you will get to enjoy the greasy deliciousness here without being honored on the wall. Larry the owner and his staff are super friendly. The waitress found out we were new to the area and wrote a list of her favorite places for us. My kids loved the cinnamon roll. I had the breakfast skillet which single serving could feed an army of hungry truckers. Will definitely go back. read more

Small, hole in the wall kind of place. Didn't know what I was getting myself into when I walked into the place, but it was fine. Everyone was very friendly and made me feel at home. Great breakfast at a great price. I would eat here again. read more

Stopped at Laughing Larry's again for a great lunch! The Kim burger, mushroom Swiss burger and fries were excellent! read more

Food was just ok. Service was excellent and it was a very interesting place to visit. I suggest giving them a try.

Beautiful Day and great Brea/Lunch. Homemade foods, generous servings, good prices. Larry is a Sweetheart. Thank You. We'll be back. read more

It's pretty much just a greasy spoon place. We thought it would be cleaner and more fun. Won't be stopping there again. Sorry Larry. Try cleaning the place up a little. Especially the bathroom. read more

Biggest omelettes ever! You'll get three meals for the price of one. I couldn't believe it. I barely made a dent in my meat lovers omelette while dining in, and had to get a to go box for the rest. This is the perfect spot for anyone with an empty stomach especially the truckers! Larry was a friendly face that greets you and asks how everything is. It takes a little bit to get your order because he's cooking it all up by himself, but it was worth the wait. The coffee was on the house. If you plan to go with your family then there's not a whole lot of tables, so just be prepared to sit separate, but near each other. My mom ordered a burger and said it was really good! read more

This is an approximation of what I imagine is the experience of being in Larry's home kitchen: friendly vibes. Portions were generous and it's such an earnest and affordable joint. Plus, my kids got to see a wall full of Larrys and a truck wash. And they gave my daughter a full can of whipped cream, making her morning. Stop on by for a real meal local-style. The breakfast algorithms are unmatched in the area, I would imagine. True grit and character. read more

I was only in town for a few days, but after eating here the first day I made sure to come back once more before leaving town! Great atmosphere where you are greeting and taken care of by Larry. The food is great and you can tell Larry takes pride in his cooking and ensuring you are well fed and taken care of. If you pass by without stopping you are truly missing out on this gem. read more

Very welcoming and friendly! We loved the decor and the homey feel. Delicious potato wedges and amazing jalapeño poppers. The food was hot, the fried food was crispy and good. Apple pie and a glass of milk topped it all off for me. A wonderful stop on the way to Minnesota! I just wish my name was Larry. read more

Spectacular off beat choice. Had a bacon cheeseburger and rings, friend had smoked brusket in rye. Located in a truck wash, about a dozen tables. Engage Larry if he's not jammed, he's a hoot, full of stories, and he really laughs all the time! What a joy to love life that much. Insiders know to ask if the can join "the club." Foot was really great, breakfast anytime, too. read more

Larry's was interesting. Quite unique location (truck wash). We started our lunch with a small order of fried pickles. Really good. My wife had a fried chicken sandwich and I had the brisket sandwich. One of us ordered potato wedges and the other ordered onion rings. The sandwiches were really average. The potato wedges were very good. The onion rings were odd and we didn't care for them. They were striped. The dark strips sort of tasted like balsamic vinegar. I asked Larry about them and he said they're called Black and Tan rings. We ended our lunch with a slice of Strawberry Rhubarb Pie and Vanilla Ice Cream. This was a winner! In conclusion, I'd suggest sticking to maybe the burgers and any of the fried potatoes (Fries, wedges and tots). And the pie! read more

Looks can be deceiving! Small place in a truck wash. Breakfast was outstanding. Omelette, hash browns and an English muffin. Sooo good. Friendly owner. read more

Larry's lunch room is almost too charming!, We brought our almost-two-year-old, and he adored all the truck memorabilia! They had a high chair for him, and also brought over a free push-pop after we finished breakfast! Now, let me tell you about the breakfast! I ordered a Denver omelette, and it was unlike any Denver omelette I've ever had; sure, it had ham, mushrooms, cheese, onions, tomatoes, and green peppers, but when I say "it had ham" I actually mean "it had an entire ham". It was delicious! read more

Unique place to grab lunch. Difficult to figure out entrance to the place when going for the first time (you have to go into the car wash area first, then a side door in to the restaurant). Dining area is small but there was enough seating for our party of 3. The food is exceptional. Much better than most in the area. Prices very reasonable. The only downside is that Larry is the only one cooking, so food can take awhile to come out after ordering. If you have time to wait, it's worth it. Personal recommendation : pulled pork BBQ sandwhich. read more

This is the coolest place. Been in this area many times and never knew it was here! And, nestled between two wash bays of a truck stop, how cool is that!!! Breakfast/brunch only, but a really large menu with something for everyone. Food was excellent too! One cook (larry), and one waitress. That is pretty much it. Just off of I94 across from Love's truck stop. Not fast service so don't go in with a city attitude that you want your meal NOW. Larry would say, and it is printed on the front of the menu, SEE YOU NEXT TIME!!! Love it! read more

What a great find! It's a bit hidden inside the truck wash, but if you go in the door by the arrow that says, "cafe" you find the door to the lunchroom. It's not fast food, but great home-cooked food made to order by Larry, who owns the truck wash. We saw truckers come in to get food to go while their trucks were washed. What a great set-up! My husband and I were hungry travelers, and since it's a route we take often, we will definitely return as the steak and eggs and patty melt we had were fantastic. Larry got a break in cooking before we left and played his laughing theme song and visited. Quite an affable guy as well as a great home cook! The hours are mis-quoted: it's open 6 days a week, 6:30 am to 5 pm. Closed Sunday. read more

Stopped here on the way to WI Dells, but wish we hadn't. Long wait for food I didn't end up eating. I took a bite of my burger and realized it had previously been frozen and then charred to death. When the cook noticed I wasn't going to eat it, he told me it was my fault for not ordering it rare. If I could go back in time, I'd just choose another place, but if you come here just ask for your fries to actually be hot and your food not burned. We didn't get charged for my meal, but I spent time I can't get back. read more

Great food and great service while reasonably priced. Had the Texas French Toast, bacon, hash browns.. all excellent. Highly recommend if you're looking for a cool little breakfast spot. read more

Laughing Larry's Lunch Room - American Near Me - Tomah, Wisconsin

This classic style all-American family run cafe is adjacent to Larry's truck wash... but be not deterred. Friendly service was delivered by three generations of Larry's family on a Saturday around noon. Excellent breakfast food at prices that remain reasonable despite recent economic upheaval. A patron feels less of of a customer, and more like a guest at your neighbor's kitchen table. A list of custom specials named after customers provide satisfaction for a wide range of hankerings... "Ken" knows where it's at for southern comfort food on a plate. Definitely will stop again on a future journey across Wisconsin. read more

This establishment is delightful. If you like large portions of food cooked to order and trucks stop here! This place is literally in between 2 truck washing stalls. There is a window where you can watch the trucks being washed which was neat with lots of truck memorabilia. The restroom is reasonably clean with a singing billy bass in the restroom which was humorous. The owner and cook is Larry who was very friendly. Both he and the waitress (unfortunately did not catch her name) were very kind to our rowdy toddler. Forgot to add the "King" size omelet is so large it almost doesn't fit on a plate. oh and coffee is on the house! Just wish I had more room in my stomach to try the pie. read more

Laughing Larry's Lunch Room - The cafe is between the two stalls. - American Near Me - Tomah, Wisconsin

Stopped in on a whim. So happy I did! Great grill. Great guy! Huge omlettes and endless coffee. YUM!

This cafe was a great find!! My Denver Omelette was perfect with fresh green peppers and off the bone ham chunks, yummy! Great tasting hash browns and fresh toast completed the plate. The portions are so big that I ate three more meals off this. Our server was very sweet and made sure we had water refills and enough napkins and condiments. Laughing Larry is a great cook and makes the dining experience like you were in his own home kitchen. Seeing the semi trucks getting washed on either side of the diner was an added bonus. Thanks for a wonderful time!! read more

Web site says it's open, but it's closed, real bummer cuz we drove a good distance to get there. I wish owners would update their site

We found Laughing Larry's Lunchroom pretty easily thanks to yelp directions. Walked into the lunchbox and found every table but one taken. Unsure about how the system worked, I asked a fellow at another table and he said, "Just wait, it will take a little time, but it's worth it!" He was right there! Larry came by and like s concierge, took our order. I had a cheeseburger and Dr R had a Swiss and mushroom burger and we shared an order of cheese curds. Burger was well cooked, cheese was great and the curds were interesting and unique to us. Tasty all around. I like off the road places to eat because I like conversations with people who are local. A fellow named Russ came in and we heard about the weather, his son, jobs he'd had, etc. and then... well let's just say it was a real slice of hometown. I really enjoyed it. Reading the board, I saw that the pie of the day was strawberry/rhubarb. Ok I had to have some... raise your hand if you love rhubarb!!!! Yum!!! Double yum!!! Larry came over and sat with us as we ate our desert. It was nice to hear about his story: sold real estate, etc. So, pie was great, burger was great, interaction was great. What's not to love?! So, get s good rest off the road with good food. But, if you're in a hurry or you have a less than go withe flow attitude, go somewhere else, so you don't harsh the congenial chi of this perfect place. read more

Laughing Larry's Lunch Room - Rhubarb strawberry pie: according to Larry made by local Mennonite women. Very tasty! - American Near Me - Tomah, Wisconsin

Based on the reviews, we decided we had to try Laughing Larry's. What a fun experience! Larry is just the nicest man, who enjoys what he does. And the food? I had half order of sausage gravy and biscuits. It filled the whole plate, but it was the best I've had so I had to finish it! My husband had the Queen omelette, and it was the biggest omelette he's ever had. Had to take what he couldn't eat with us cuz it was so good. We were just passing thru, but if we lived anywhere close, we'd be eating there often. We became friends in that short time together. I wish I could experience all the items on the menu cuz Larry is one fantastic cook!!! And we laughed together. Best combination we could ask for. Thank you, Larry, for adding your lunchroom to your awesome truck wash! read more

I'm giving this place 1 star because you can't give 0. This was the worst meal of my life. Please don't listen to the positive reviews; they cannot be real. The bathroom smelled of sewer and the smell wafted to our table every time someone opened the door. It was awful. The mystery meat on my reuben was unrecognizable. We took one bite of our meal and threw them directly in the trash, which is the best place for a meal like this. Even the salad was rotten. I can't say how bad this food was, and I use the term food loosely. The waitress was sweet but not enough to overcome the odor, dirty kitchen and terrible food! The tater tots were edible and the only redeeming quality. read more

Nothing fancy, just fantastic food a great cook and PHENOMENAL prices. For the portion sizes you get it's a home run. Ordered the "18 wheeler" got a massive sandwich fully loaded, french fries, coleslaw, a drink AND pie all for 12.60 out the door. Can't ask for a better deal. And Mr. Larry is a gem. Can't WAIT to come back! read more

Out for the first car ride of the season. Stopped for breakfast based on Yelp reviews and most people nailed it!! This is a quaint little cafe, Larry is a fun guy and a great cook! I had a small meat lovers omelette- yowza!!. Huge chunks of sausage, ham, polish sausage wrapped up in a lot of eggs and cheese, ad three huge slices of bacon and hash browns cooked just right. Half was all that I could handle. My husband had a half order of sausage gravy and biscuits planning to eat half of mine. Well my goodness the plate was full!! They were delicious too! If you're hungry and looking for a place to relax for a bit and eat breakfast this is your spot- don't miss it! read more

Loved it. Larry was great and so was the food. Would definitely recommend the cheese curds and bacon cheeseburger

Worth the stop! We met Larry and heard the theme song. Some good ole fashioned diner food.

This was the most expensive sandwich and most unfriendly waitress I have experienced in a long time. I asked if there were peppers in the chili and was given a normal answer of "I don't know." When asked if she could find out for me she stated she could try. Larry was awfully busy. Wait staff should KNOW what is in the food they are serving as well as have an ingredient list they can look on. The eventual response that it didn't look like there was any was insufficient for my allergy comfort. The waitress acted as if my presence was an intrusion on her day. Sadly, I remember better days here. read more
