Cheesesteak was delicious but the Stromboli was not cooked and the dough was still raw. Very disappointing. read more

Tommy's Subs - Seeded cheesesteak - Sandwiches Near Me - Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania

A landmark on the East Side of Jim Thorpe. The Rambo is the most American sandwich in existence, featuring every category of fried food on a single cheesesteak. Their rolls are exceptionally good because I'm pretty sure they make them. I usually just get take out because it's small inside, but there is actually a pretty nice view from the window where you can watch everything going on outside. You can also get beer here and do mixed six packs which is awesome. read more

Hi guys and ladies - well, I'm presently in Pennsylvania and am out checking out the grubberies... Now, I have driven by this place for a year and have never stopped in. It's in a location that is a bit awkward but DO NOT LET THIS STOP YOU!! Today, I took my dog for grooming a few blocks up. I asked if there was a reason pace I could chill and grub as I was told it would take between 1.5 & 2 hours. It brought a smile to my face because Tommy's Subs was a grub spot I have been wanting to try. The ambiance here is surprisingly casual and welcoming. The music plays just loud enough and it's a good combination - from Top 50 to funk to country to Spanish Rap, etc. I really appreciated the mix. As it was my first time here - I wasn't sure how to order. But, when in Rome... I ordered the Tommy's 12" Steak Sub. I added hot peppers and onions. I also ordered a Coke Zero and an order of Pizza Fries. Coke machine is one of those fancy 100+ options. So get creative and mix what you want. They also serve canned beverages. They serve desserts as well. Check out their Dessert Display Case. They also offer cold beer!! The place is very clean!! There is an inviting fireplace and a few tables. There are also 15 high chairs with counters to accommodate. When I let the woman at the counter know it was my first time she smiled. I'm guessing cause she knew I would enjoy it. The Pizza Fries were super tasty. And btw there is enough in the order to share with two more people! It's a good deal. The Tommy Steak Sub was also very tasty. The bread was toasted and crunchy. When you come by and order this - you kinda have to "build" it so make sure you let them know what you want on it as far as condiments. And if I may - don't show your A$$ if there is an extra charge and you never asked. As a chef everything costs so if it comes out of the kitchen - it's paid for. They also offer slushy's and casual gambling - PA Lottery and Keno. And if you're into betting the ponies - you can do that here as well. So, if you are in the area of Jim Thorpe or the surrounding areas you OWE IT TO YOURSELF to make this a regular grub spot. So, when you stop by let them know that I referred them. I will be leaving PA soon but am glad I got to experience Tommy's Subs on 4th St in Jim Thorpe. And I KNOW I will be stopping by before I head back to Cali. Enjoy!! read more

$40 of food right in the trash. Pizza was not good, cheesesteak is now rolled meat ? Flavorless. The bread is "fresh" soggy not good at all. read more

Tommy's is the best for cheesesteak in Jim Thorpe! I can count on them for good, quality food at reasonable prices.

Small shop in a small town. We stopped by this place which isn't too far from Blue Mountain. Staff are friendly and they have a wide variety of sandwiches and pizza on their menu. Pizza pies are small here but tasty. I think the bread here is custom made. It has a doughy fun chewy texture which makes the sandwiches delicious. There's a slot machine to the left of the entrance and to the right of the entrance are some frozen alcohol drinks. read more

Worst cheese steak ever. 1st one was steak 'um. ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING 2nd one was "philly cheese steak". Maybe 3oz of "shaved rib eye" DOUSED with some cheese sauce AND LOADED with black pepper. And they had the internal fortitude to charge me "extra" because of the rib eye. While I am not a resident of this town, I will never ever come back to this place. I should have known that you can't get a real philly cheese steak if you aren't in Philly! Terrible place. read more

stay far away, owners very unprofessional about food that is not right. better food elsewhere!

Hubs can't stop raving about your loaded Philly cheesesteak with Cooper... said it was the best he's ever had! Homemade pierogis were great too! Staff was great as well! read more

Tried it for the first time. My sister is a local resident and it's definitely some of the cheapest around. The slices are ridiculously hefty! Loaded with cheese. Absolutely worth the money. Highly recommend and we'll most definitely order again to try more! A decent portion of popcorn chicken and fries. Both were nothing spectacular. Run of the mill chicken and fries. The funnel fries were the most disappointing but still pretty good. The portion was minuscule compared to the pizza and chicken. All in all, order here! I will again. read more

The worse hoagie I ever had. American hoagie. Salami on bun 1 piece of cheese see thru cut in 3 to layer bun. A few scant onion slices shitload if lettuce then on top too thick cheap boiled ham folded there. WTF? WHO MAKES A HOAGIE LIKE THAT!?!?!!? NEVER AGAIN. Oh I did order with no tomato thank god! read more

We've passed this shop on the way to downtown Jim Thorpe a number of times and the four star rating on Yelp had me thinking this would be a hidden gem. We ordered a steak sub, hot ham and cheese and the American. They were edible mut meh. Lacked flavor. I think the bread makes a sub and the bread here is just not amazing. The sandwiches lacked flavor and the meats felt cheap. You wont be miserable eating here but definitely not something to go out of your way to visit. read more

Amazing food, bug selection and great pricing!! Highly recommend for travels instead of spending so much at the tourist restaurants in Jim Thorpe. Apparently they have a pickle pizza that is really popular...I will get this the next time I'm in town! Small eating area. Nice variety of alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages. short wait time. read more

Tommy's Subs - Fresh oven roasted turkey - Sandwiches Near Me - Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania

Wow what a great place. Been here twice and hope to go back soon. Hit this shop up after a long bike ride along at Lehigh Valley Gorge Park. Had a small pizza with pepperoni and it was delicious. Ham and Swiss sub was also delicious and huge. Their bread makes the sandwich. Nice staff too. read more

Fresh bread, amazing pierogi's, great meatball and chicken parm subs what is more to love about this place. This is a staple in my sisters home and now my son looks forward to it when we visit. It's a must have. Consistently good and great service! read more

Holy crap, first of all, this spot bakes their own freaking breads, and it's AMAZING. Down home American style diner cooking, packed with flavor, fresh ingredients, and friendly smiling staff who brought a smile to my face. I'm pretty sure they make everything from scratch, in house, from local ingredients. Better than any wawa, subway, or any other fast food you could imagine, and they even have alcoholic slushees for 4$... maybe next time, but I'm definitely going to be coming here regularly. Thank you so much guys, if you read this, don't change. read more

Nice little neighborhood sandwich shop with an eclectic mix of items: Coca-Cola Freestyle machine for fountain sodas, a wall of refrigerated individual sodas and beer, plus 40 oz. beer and 6-packs, plus 2-liters sodas, iced tea, and milk, plus a wide range of specialty sandwiches, a few salads and entrees plus pizza, either slices or whole pies. The desserts all look delicious: slices of cheese cake, individually wrapped brownies and some half pies. A sign hangs on the refrigerated case that alcohol is for take-out only -- you cannot drink it in their dining room. Strangely enough, they also sell lottery tickets, cigarettes, and Cracker Jack and bagged Trolli gummi candy. I don't know why, but the Freestyle machine doesn't have root beer, but they do have other non-caffeinated choices. If you want root beer, they do have it in individual bottles. Seating is a pair of standard sandwich shop four-seater booths, plus about eight stools arranged at two different counters. A TV was playing the Phillies game live when my girlfriend and I were there. I got the 8" steak sandwich, fries and fountain soda special for $8.49. My girlfriend got "pizza fries", a fountain soda and a brownie. I got enough fries for two people, though Kelly said that they do reheat well in the oven... Our total was something like $18.xx. I got my steak sandwich with everything: cheese, sauce, mushrooms, onions, hot & sweet peppers. Other Yelpers have said that the rolls are home made, which I would agree with. It was on the softer side but good. CASH ONLY -- ATM machine is on the premises. Street parking... read more

This is a good place for sandwiches. The Hoagies have really nice rolls and they pile on the ingredients. They have a special sandwich with french fries on top that looked good but I simply added my own fries to the top. Nothing super special....just a really decent sandwich shop. Definitely a step above Subway!! read more

Almost went to Subway but found this Gem when we took a wrong turn. Great food and great value, definitely will visit again.

Frozen food, steakums with cheese wiz, fake buffalo wings, square pizza is pre-made pizza like supermarket. Low quality cold cuts. Cash only. Rude & unpleasant staff who when you say hello they respond with "what do you want!" Ha ha fun times. You be the judge, there are about six other places in the area that blow this place away. Take your chances. You were warned. read more

American hoagies are always so good ,, best rolls around !!!! Food is well priced and everyone is always so friendly !!! Awesome place

8.8/10.0 If you are new to the area and want to eat at the best place around for lunch or a quick sandwich, Tommy's is the way to go. Best cheesesteak in the area, best $5 burger I've ever eaten (Olympian cheeseburger with LTO/mayo/ketchup), top-notch hoagies that are in one way very plain but still manage to be a high quality sandwich, and the angel steak (a chicken sandwich) is the bomb. I get mine with LTO/cheese/mayo. Oh and did I mention that they bake their own fresh bread daily? That's right. No store-bought garbage rolls from a plastic bag. Bread can be an integral part of a good burger/sandwich/hoagie/cheesesteak and Tommy's nails it with their quality sandwich rolls. The owner actually bakes them every night, so they're fresh for the next day, at like 2am. If you are looking for a sit-down dinner type of place, this isn't it. It's a sub shop. But if you are looking for a sandwich in Carbon County, Tommy's is top dog. Don't be fooled by the overpriced tourist traps on Broadway! Most of them have inflated prices and par to sub-par food. If you want to eat where the locals go, hit Tommy's. Prices are great, too! read more

Tommy's Subs - 12" cheesesteak - Sandwiches Near Me - Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania

Great local eatery - one of those places that can make just about anything. Service was fast and courteous, prices are extremely reasonable, and portions are enormous. I definitely recommend their hoagies and fries but don't order a large unless you want enough for 4 people! They were packed with customers and it's no surprise why. read more

Had a great time here. A friendly family local neighborhood spot to bring your family. Great subs at a good price point in summary. Could use a bit more meat in the sub.. Will be back again. read more

Stopped in to get a sandwich for lunch. Ordered an Italian hoagie and was really confused about my ham being on top. The bread was good, otherwise it was a bland hoagie.. didn't try anything else there so I can't say how the rest of the menu is. FYI - Cash only read more

Tommy's Subs - Italian Hoagie - Sandwiches Near Me - Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania

Got a cheese steak on one of their homemade rolls... awesome! Great food at great prices. Cash only.

I went here for lunch on a Wednesday. It is not a fancy place at all, more like a neighborhood place with a lot of locals. Prices are cheap and the products they offer are great with a huge variety. I have the Tommy's Sub and it was great! They do not have WIFI. I recommend this place for a quick bite on the other part of Jim Thorpe. read more

Popped in for a quick bite on my way into town. Very affordable food ($4-6 sandwiches) and friendly staff. They make their own pirogies but sadly I didn't have a big enough appetite for that and a cheesesteak. 3.5-4 star cheesesteaks. The bread is incredibly fresh. And everything else is exactly how you would expect. Would hit this spot again on my next trip to Jim Thorpe. read more

Tommy's Subs - Cheesesteak w/onions - Sandwiches Near Me - Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania

It was fine. Nothin special, just bland. The meat of the outside of the hogie is just odd, and I ended up having to take the whole thing a part to reorganize. Wouldn't go out of my way again. read more

Hands down one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. The cheesesteak meat was not chopped up like everywhere else, it had layers of meat, a good amount of cheese, and mushrooms, but the best part was the homemade roll. It was like they use pizza dough to make them. So good! $5.95 for a foot long! The prices are really reasonable as well. Don't think anything there was over $8. Hamburgers and hot dogs were under $3! We can't wait to go back. read more

Tommy's Subs - Cheese steak with "cheddar" and a chicken steak with peppers & onions - Sandwiches Near Me - Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania

We were staying in Jim Thorpe and decided around 6pm to get something to eat. We drove around and every place we were going to eat was closed. Wound up stopping in here at 6:45 and saw they were closing at 7. We were going t leave because t was so close to close time and didn't want to be a burden but they assured us it was fine. We got burgers. How good could these burgers be as they were priced ridiculously cheap. Got a huge cheeseburger for $4! They were the best burgers ever! I would definitely go here again. read more

I stopped by here last week famished. Walking in, it seemed great. Menu was extensive, business was bustling and they even had horse racing. I felt like I would never leave. Then I got my sandwich. The first thing you notice is the sandwich wrapped in lunch meat. What moron green lighted this? You basically need to deconstruct and rebuild the entire sandwich. Then, I bit in. Man, that was some sub par bread. Like 2 day old airport bread. It's almost like someone intended it to be started and finished baking at home. Incredibly doughy. They did have a good beer selection in their defense but I'd rather graze in the gutter than get a hoagie there again. read more

My partner didn't enjoy his roast beef sub and my Philly cheesesteak was okay. The homemade Italian rolls are not that good. The bathroom was decent and the prices are low. The girls behind the counter could've been more friendly. read more

I love Tommy's and here's why: - The atmosphere and music make me feel like I'm in 1991 walking home from school and digging out change from my backpack to pay for a lollipop. - The hoagies here cost probably the same as they did in 1991. I got a hoagie stuffed with turkey meat (and not blobby slimy turkey meat either), on 8 inches of a soft, but not too thick, homemade roll (for under $5!) - They have brownies for sale at the counter that I'm yet to try but let me tell you, I got so excited when I picked one up I almost jumped up and clicked my heels. I could feel the moist chocolate gooey tongue utopia through the Saran Wrap in my hands and (drumroll) a pretzel crust!!! I'm kicking myself in the rump while I eat my fat free fig Newton for not buying one of those babies. Tommys = cheap, good, and a piece of Jim Thorpe that doesn't look like a house from Disney world (but I'm not saying Disney houses are bad, I'm just saying). read more

Delicious Subs!! We visited this place with family, the people were very friendly and service was really good. They made some fresh pastas for the kids. We ordered subs, in that the buffalo chicken philly steak was very delicious. The chicken Salad sub was also good. Nice food and excellent service! read more

This sandwich shop literally makes me wish I lived closer to the area. I was in town for the weekend, and I went back to the place twice for sandwiches. The bread was awesome, the meat was great, everything tasted freshly sliced and yummy. Highly recommend the Italian hoagie. I'm not a huge fan of oil or mayo, and I loved that this sandwich comes with an Italian vinaigrette that adds a ton of flavor. The menu is WAY huger than you'd think after reading the reviews on yelp. They have tons of sandwiches of course, but lots of appetizers, fried eats, platters, and daily specials. And amazingly, everything is priced about 4 dollars less than what you'd normally spend too. At least, normally spend in my Philly suburbs. I only wished that the counter girl was a bit friendlier. It was obviously my first time, as i was staring at the menu for about 1500 minutes. But unfortunately, she just stood at the counter and never me if I needed any help. Ah well. The girl who made my sandwich on my second visit made up for it though! I noticed my first visit that they didn't cut their (huuuge) sandwiches, which made for awkward eating. So the second time, I asked for a knife without explaining why. The girl who made my sandwich actually asked why I needed it, and when I explained why she was like "oh, no problem". She took it back, unwrapped it, and sliced it herself. I thought that was a nice touch. My point is - make the trek just out of town and eat here! read more

We were in the area after a weekend at Skirmish and White water rafting. Our rafting guide actually recommended Tommy's Subs for cheese steaks. I split the 12 inch Rambo with buffalo chicken cheese steak. This sub is loaded with fries, mozzarella sticks and other fried goodness on top of the cheese steak. It totally hit the spot after 5 hours of water rafting. They were out of pizza slices when we went so we got some chicken fingers instead. They were really dry. But I liked the honey mustard sauce. Others in the group got the Delmonico cheese steak but weren't entirely wow'ed by it. They did order about 3 portions of the funnel cake fries. Cash only, stop by only if it's on the way. Otherwise, don't really seek it out. read more

Really good basic cheesesteak and cheese fries. Steady stream of business and a large number of items to select from. Would come back if in the area again. read more
