Another great Hamburger and Fries joint. If you don't have a Red Robins in Lompoc, this is your next best place. The last time I ate here was probably a few years ago. read more

Burgers are just ok, they do have quite a variety of choices with their A-Z menu, place is a bit hard to find (tucked into corner of strip mall) read more

Burgers, burgers, burgers! Best I have had and I am not really into burgers. Nom! Friendly, efficient service, a must do while in town!

BEST BREAKFAST IN TOWN!! Our family has breakfast at Tom's every other week and they never disappoint!! We love the servers and how quick and attentive they are and the food is always delicious! My husband and I typically share an order of biscuits and gravy (seriously the best in town!!) and a bacon avocado omelette-sooooooo good! The Tom's omelette is also amazing!! The A-Z burgers are also quite tasty!! read more

Love Toms we come in from Los Angeles to visit our friends and have been hitting atoms for at least 25 years! Best burgers and omelettes in town. read more

Loved this place. Nice, casual local atmosphere. Fast service, even at lunch. So friendly! Food was great. Had burger and it wasn't all gross and greasy. They serve breakfast, but I haven't had it yet. Family friendly, but not too loud. Max capacity is 78 people. read more

Tom's - This is my husband's. Its a burger in a grilled cheese. He loved it. - Burgers Near Me - Lompoc, California

See all

I remember loving to go here for lunch in high school! The burgers are delicious, and the service is always great. I always get "H" or "I", but definitely want to try some of the other interesting burgers on the menu! read more

Tom's is a great lunch spot! Burgers are delicious, chicken strips and fries are the best I've had (they make their ranch dressing from scratch mmmm). Lot's of free refills without asking, lovely service! read more

The burgers are great, portions are big, fries feed the table, and the menu is worth re-reading every time. It's a cozy little place where the waitresses call you "hon" and the food quality can't be beat. Really - the burgers are awesome. The only drawback is that they don't accept debit or credit cards. It makes it less than convenient sometimes... read more

1. Customer service! Yes 2. Good food! Yes 3. Menu needs a redo! Yes Other then that. Will go back again! read more

Burgers A-Z and large portions of fries. Great food and service every time. CONS: no CC cash only. read more

This place is sooo good (I got the Y burger) and it has amazing service too, everyone is so kind. It is also very good with the COVID requirements. Definitely will come back. read more

Fantastic breakfast... best breakfast spot in lompoc by far... lunch and burgers delicious as w

Great burgers, fries, and onion rings. Tom's has one burger for each letter of the alphabet, so give yourself time to explore the menu and select something interesting. Tom's doesn't take plastic, so be sure to bring cash. read more

I think they have the best burgers in town. I usually like Carl's Jr, but these overpower the flavor of those others. My favorite burger there is the Mushroom Swiss. I also love the fact that you can order french fries & onion rings by either 1/2 basket or full basket. They have enormous burgers, but the prices are very reasonable. They only except CASH, but everything there is well worth the price. I would recommend this restaurant to those who want to leave with full stomachs, but great service as well. read more

This little dinner is tucked away from plain sight, hidden in the corner of a shopping plaza. I heard great things from the locals and man they were right. This place is all about burgers and crazy burger variations. They offer a menu of burgers starting with the letter A and ending with Z. The burger I tried was letter G the Jalapeno and avocado burger which was one of the best burgers I had in ages. The staff were super friendly and I didn't have to wait long for my food. This is a must try if you are a burger lover in the local area. read more

Everything everyone said is true... hands down one of the best all around places in town... burgers, breakfast..its all good

Had lunch here today, nothing has changed. Still the best burger in Lompoc, great service too!

This is easily the star of Lompoc cuisine. If you're a burger person a.k.a human, Tom's is the place for you! With literally a burger for every letter of the alphabet Toms shines bright with the options of how you like your onions prepared, your choice of cheese and delicious auxiliary options. And please don't get me started on the staff, on both the Friday nights that I've been here I've been welcomed with a smile and a warm atmosphere by the all female serving staff. They know what they're doing and boy do they do it well. If I was going to give a downfall for Toms, it would be how perfectly and crispy the fries were. I just literally couldn't stop eating them and by the time I was done with my half order, I thought I was going to have a heart attack at my ripe age of 20. Congratulations Toms Burgers, you have made a fan of me; I will absolutely be back for more! read more

Our favorite place in Lompoc! Great food and service. Veronica was our server and she was great! ***** read more

Tom's - Always a great choice!!!!! - Burgers Near Me - Lompoc, California

This place is amazing i called like 10 minutes ago and they knew who i was they even asked if it was me great customer service and awesome food Y burger is the best thats just true anyway love it and so would you read more

This is your basic, old-school style diner and when we walked in we could immediately tell it was well loved by the locals. We were a bit disappointed that breakfast options are only served until 11 AM as my daughter was craving an omelette for lunch. The portions are good but you pay separately for fries. They have multiple size options for the fries. The basket is huge and can feed an entire table. The onion rings were excellent. The servers were very friendly and attentive and it was a perfect stop for a quick lunch between our sporting events. I love the creative descriptions on the burger menu. Something here for everyone who is craving a tasty burger. read more

A local "institution" in the Lompoc Valley, Tom's is the "Home of the Educated Hamburger" from "A" (a plain hamburger) to "Z" (zest at it's best; a five pound hamburger). I've visited Tom's since it's early days in the mid-80s when they were located in the Lompoc Shopping Center on "H" street. Their success speaks for themselves, culmunating with their move to their current location and expanded their operation since then. Even with the expanded sitting area, the place can be packed during the lunch hour by the locals, a good indication of how well the place is received. Ask for a copy of their menu and try some of their creations at home when you can't visit in person. Also, you may want to order a "half-size" basket or bag (if take out) of their seasoned fries -- which is still larger than McDonald's Super Sized variety. read more

[Disclaimer] I am not pretentious and I don't like negative people who look for the bad in any situation... But this was the worst call my wife has ever made - ever. My awesome wife - I love her... And I facilitated this decision by reading these reviews and ultimately taking our close friends and my son for some 'authentic' burgers. Maybe this experience was our fault.. Maybe we should have listened and followed the signs... but we didn't. 1) When your waitress recommends a burger with peanut butter and mayonnaise, you're probably in the wrong place. Original? Yes... I'll give you that. 2) When she warns you it'll be a 45 minute wait for a burger - take the warning and move on. As a guy, "Challenge Accepted!" is a credo one can live by - but not in this case, not for a burger. 3) When 45 minutes has gone by and your waitress tells you that there are still 4 tickets ahead of you - cut your losses, swallow your pride - in that 45 minutes I could have gone back and forth to McDonald's and gotten everyone in that restaurant a burger. 4) When 45 minutes turns into 113 minutes - that burger should live up to the hype and taste like an original burger; authentic, meaty, loaded with flavors you've been anticipating for the better half of an afternoon... 5) Upon receipt of my burger I was surprised to see this flimsy patty dominated by a chef's salad, a bunch of jalapeno's - crammed between two buns... ...But enough about me. Don't be fooled by the A-Z burger menu. My wife got the Pineapple burg and I got the Jalapeno, my best friend and his wife got the Chili-burg & original cheese-burg respectively. ...What a disappointment. Aside from a slice of pineapple, some chopped/pickled jalapeno's, a half of a chili - they were no better than a McDonald's cheeseburger with thousand island dressing. If you find this experience to be offensive - I have no words for you. If you're comfortable with sitting on an uncomfortable chair for half of your life, waiting for a burger then by all means - I'll swallow my pride. But holy crap was this a waste of time. read more

Came here because I heard they had a big selection of ingredients for their burgers. I played it safe and got the bacon burger. The burger was disappointing. You can tell this place uses inexpensive ingredients and what's funny is that they charge for everything!!! Fries don't come with the burgers so I would recommend just ordering a half order since that will feed at least 4 people. Service isn't too great either. Waitresses are not friendly and they take forever to come take your order. Another turn off here is it's cash only. I don't see what all the hype is about this place. read more

For the lady who says it's over rated....It wasn't even rated yet! Everything there is good. The fries you get oodles of and the burgers are great. The onion rings are also A-ok! The one that gets me is the 'Shroom Burger' omgoodness. Thats a good burger. But my friends beg to differ, they say it's the Hawaiian. read more

I asked for it medium and got it well done. The waitress gave me the impression that it could be done. I don't mind the thin burger patty, and it was still juicy. I'm happy to report that my other request of no pickles was satisfied. The menu is cute with the a-z "educated burger" concept. It's like stepping back to 1975, except for the craft beers - which you would not get in 1975. I abstained, but was imaging how good it would be with that. The toppings were fresh and I was happy about that. Now if only they would actually serve it medium. Maybe if I ask for medium rare, I will get it medium? It's so hard to tell. I think Jalama Burger gives a little more bang for your buck, but live here long enough and you want to try different things. read more

Small place, great food, I wish they open all day everyday! Yummy!

This place was awesome (well almost). I ordered the "Don Willis" burger which is not on the menu. (Their menu is quite extensive and humorous, too.) This burger uses grilled cheese sandwiches for the top and bottom buns. It comes loaded with all the fixins, including bacon. One order of fries feeds at least 3. The only reason I couldn't give them 5 stars is that I never got a refill on my drink and the waitress only checked on us once. In her defense it was packed. One other note: they don't take credit cards. read more

Great little spot in Lompoc. Large selection of burgers, great fry's and you can brush up on your ABC"s at the same time. Take cash as they don't accept plastic. Give Tom's a try you wont be sorry!! read more

Best burgers in Lompoc! Great service every time and you can't beat a Y burger with cheese , raw onions, and added bacon. Although the onion rings with ranch are pretty rad too. One other thing that is super convenient is they take debit/credit cards. read more

I was looking for a good burger.... found a great one! However, when the check came it was $13.95 for a 1/4 pound burger, side salad and iced tea. Add in a tip, and suddenly it's $17 for lunch.... ouch! If they had a $10 combo, this would be a four-star place! read more

I've been going to Tom's since I was in high school (over 24 years) and it's always a great burger. I can honostly say that I have tried every burger on the menu (accept left the horseradish off the _)---in HS my girlfriend and I would split the burger and worked our way through the entire menu. Even the ones that sound odd are surprisingly good. French fries are always HOT, and the onion rings crispy. Have been taking my son (6) since he was old enough to chew meat, and he just loves going there (he always has the pizza burger). Service is always good and fast, and the staff is always friendly. Tom's burgers are worth the extra drive. read more

It is a good burger not outrageously priced with lots of different variations. Fries and onion rings are good too. But Beware Cash or Check only! read more

Unfortunately I may be one of the few Lompoc-ians who have had better burgers than Tom's! I rarely go there and have always experienced a 30+ or more wait time. Burgers are average; I'll give the A-Z an A for effort. To me, the best thing about Tom's are their fries! read more

Very good. A marvelous place for a good burger lover. They have some pretty unique selections, come here if you feel adventurous.

Beenn going to TOM'S since the mid 80's and it's still the best burger in Lompoc.

One of the best burger joints I've ever been to. Best fries on the planet....Mmmmm!! One good thing Lompoc has going for it.

Good burger. I had the bacon swiss and it was pretty good. However the interior of this location makes me think "yeah, i'll go for takeout next time with this place " ... I don't expect a "fancy" old school burger joint by any means but I believe they are overdue for an interior update with regard to comfort. Feels like you're eating in a high school cafeteria. Sorry. But them's the facts. Our waitress was professional, kind and courteous with my grandparents which was welcomed. However, when my party ordered water I could overhear them in the background complaining to each other that all we had ordered was water. Pretty un-pro. Do that crap on the off time ladies. read more

We've been eating at Tom's for many years. The burgers are consistently excellent, and where else nearby can you find so many different kinds in one place? Admittedly, I've never tried any of the more adventurous ones, but I do enjoy having the option! Our only complaint is that that they aren't open for dinner on Mondays or Tuesdays, which is a shame! read more
