There are plenty of things I was noticing as I looked at the same area of the restaurant again and again. Lots of interesting touches that made it more pub/homey (if that makes any sense). It's definitely a smaller restaurant so come during off hours or I think they might allow for reservations. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. A bit of a limited menu but not putting that against them, as long as the food is good it doesn't matter. Got the pickled eggs and pretzel for the appetizer. The pretzel was standard but the sweet mustard sauce was amazing. Pickled eggs were different but it was the first time I tried them and I'm glad that I did. Give them a try. For mains got the shepherd's pie, sausage and mash, and the firehouse chili. Would recommend the shepherd's pie, the firehouse chili was not my personal favorite sort of chili but it does seem like other reviews liked it, so give it a shot and form your own opinion. I liked the sausage but the mash not so much, more grainy than smooth. If you take nothing else from my review, get the sticky toffee pudding. Very indulgent especially after a heavy meal but it was quickly polished off. Overall, decent food with some gems. Definitely a lot of character to it, and unique for the area.

Looking for an afternoon bite and brew, we stopped in with our dominos and ordered the Korean Cauliflower (fried cauliflower tossed in Seoul sauce & topped with scallions and sesame seeds) and the Totchos (Cajun tots topped with either Spanish Chicken or Mojo pork, with Ranger Red beer cheese, black beans, pickled red onion/jalapeño mix, scallions, and cilantro-lime crema). Oh my goodness. That sauce on that fried cauliflower was like heaven in your mouth! So good! The totchos topped with Spanish Chicken was super tasty! Loved being able to relax with our dominos in a place where the food was deliciously good and we didn't feel like we were being rushed out. And that cauliflower is to-die-for. Whatever that Seoul sauce is, it's the best!

The Muffuletta Melt was delicious, but also quite salty. I'm not a huge olive fan (it was my husband's pick), but the few bites I took were all I could handle for saltiness. Proceed with caution... :) The beet salad was superb. The Gorgonzola cheese was so fresh and soft. And the toasted bread that came with it was worth every carb! Everything was homemade - ranch and other sauces, the candied hazelnuts on the salad, and obviously the beer! Husband said the American Red Ale, and would recommend it! My Chardonnay from the local Paradis Vineyard was fresh, beautifully clear, and light. (Btw - Paradis Vineyards is a family-owned local winery in the Cascade Foothills near Silverton, run by fourth-generation brothers!) Also - the brewery has no less than FIVE separate eating spaces, three outdoor (two of which are lower level), two indoor (one lower and one upper level). The upper indoor level has a second bar space as well. I'm sure you'll enjoy it as much as we did!!

Great small town bar. Great food, great staff. The owner is fantastic, very friendly and cheerful gal. Tommy's recently hosted a fundraiser dinner to aid in raising funds for the entire Jefferson High School graduating class for 2016 GRAD NIGHT party. It is awesome when local businesses help out their community. (The owner is open to fundraisers if you are looking to do one!) They take care of the locals and welcome new-comers with open arms. I personally order food to go often, due to my busy schedule, I swing in to pick it up and it's ready and affordable. I am a frequent satisfied customer. Come check them out and you can be too! read more

Tommys is a great food and bevegage venue here in Jefferson. With big screen tvs, full lotto, well maintained pool tables, great smoking area with heat, a fun poker night, pool league, daily food and drink specials, and a host for many community benefits. Tommys really has it all. From peanuts to slow smoked prime rib dinners, budweiser to hard cider. All you can eat pasta night, taco night, the list goes on. Tommys provides as much for this small community as it possibly can. Very impressive. . Check out their Facebook! !! read more

Tommy's has new owners as of May 2013. They immediately improved the menu by making their own ranch, offering steak cut fries and other new menu items. They have a daily lunch special for $6. Everything food and beverage wise is fairly priced. I like their STD or super Tommy deluxe burger and rotating tap of micro brews. read more

Food is a little over priced for what it offers, that's not too uncommon these days. What's worse is the actual time it takes for them to get orders out. Not even busy, and I've been waiting over 40 mins for food. Bartenders don't engage you unless you're a local apparently and they're not friendly or efficient. read more

He decided to try the sandwich. I got the boneless wings with hot sauce and we ordered Cajun tater tots to share. When we went to pick up, I was greeted right away, promptly checked out, and we were a little early, so the food wasn't quite ready. Several waitresses came by to check in with me while I waited and that was great to know they were on top of our order. Got home and opened all of our goods and were surprised at the generous portion sizes!! The chicken fried steak on the sandwich was pretty big, and my husband enjoyed it a lot. He said the only thing missing was a side of gravy. Noted for next time, order a side of gravy. The boneless wings were great. The hot sauce has a nice kick, but also a sweet undertone (apple or pineapple, perhaps?) that I really enjoyed. I could only eat half of the wings because the portion size was so big. I'm saving them for a midnight snack. The large Cajun tater tots were also generously portioned. We could only eat half of them, so they are also being saved for later. The Cajun seasoning is great. Not overdone and not too spicy (we were a little worried because my husband doesn't eat anything spicy) but he devoured them and said they were awesome. All in all, we'll definitely be back. We didn't drink, but it looked like a great atmosphere and they had a great selection of drinks, from what I saw. Good music playing, too.

We walked in the door and there were two guys at the bar. That was it, and football had already started. My wife and I thought we just beat the crowd. Nope. We walked in and the bartender took a minute or two to greet us. Wearing a Bears Jersey he asked if I was a Bears fan and if I would like him to turn on the game. Yes of course. It was weird we walked into the dining area and every tv had the same game on, with the exception of now the one that had the Bears game. To me if you are paying for the NFL ticket you should at least make an effort to turn more than one on. Next we sat down and it was order at the bar so my wife got back up to place the order. Mind you still two people working(one bartender and one lady was wiping down tables) and two people at the bar(I think they actually worked there but were not working). No one was friendly. She placed an order for a glass of prosecco, a miller lite, 8 wings, and a house salad. $50!!!! We asked for waters and they just pointed over to the water station. Both people walked by our table multiple times no nothing, no comments, no "hey, how is everything," nothing. I thought this place would be a great place that people would come out and watch football, or any sport, but I can see why it was empty. Terrible service, horrific prices. I'm only bumping the stars up to two because the lemon pepper wings were actually pretty good. We were going to order more, but after getting the initial bill we paid and walked across the street to Tommy's for an actual breakfast. Buyers beware, cool concept that has potential, but all around executed terribly.
