Live in St Petersburg. LookED for a new breakfast place. Nocked it out of the park. Excellent food and service. Just like a diner in NY, NJ or PA. You must stop in here. read more

OMG..... That's right OMG, what a terrific hidden gem. How many times I must've driven by this spot, probably hundreds of times. It wasn't until friends from church told us about it and recommended it highly that I decided to pay a visit. And of course so glad I did. This is a 100% mom and pop restaurant, or should I say a Kristy and Scott restaurant. Chris is a very warm and cheery greeter to her establishment and will quickly make you feel at home while taking your order. Scott is hard at work on the grill, creating your delectable meal. My first meal here, (certainly not my last) was an omelet they call the Kitchen Sink. Ham, sausage, peppers, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, and your choice of cheese, with a side of perfectly prepared and seasoned home fries, with your choice of toast. Of course they have many other choices to choose from such as omelets, biscuits and gravy, pancakes, french toast, and breakfast sandwiches. For Hardy eaters they have what they call their "Big Breakfast," consisting of 3 eggs, 2 bacon, sausage, ham, home fries or grits, and toast for $6.75!!! Tory's is nestled in between Fuzzies Sports barroom and a long strip mall on Highland Avenue. Near the north west corner of Lakeview Rd and Highland Ave. They are open for breakfast and lunch. Monday through Friday 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. And Sunday 7 a.m. to noon for breakfast only. They also are open for lunch. Serving burgers, many different sandwiches, double decker club sandwiches, and salads. When in the area be sure to check them out. Wait, who am I kidding, even if you're not in the area you've got to make a point to try this hidden gem of a cafe. You won't be disappointed. read more

Friendly family run diner. Food was hot and perfectly cooked with very reasonable prices. Everyone that walked through the door got a "good morning!". We will definitely visit there again when we come back into town. read more

Tory's has the best breakfast in the entire area hands down, they did that! And they continue to do the damn thing every single time I go I have never been let down by this mom and pop joint. All the food is delicious(they hand peel and boil the potatoes fresh daily)and the service is amazing. Idk what else to say besides you have to experience it for yourself and I'm not just hyping the place up. To the owners/staff of this fine establishment...kudos! read more

Are you kidding me? An Old School Diner where you see Jeff (owner from Philly) working the grill and stand up comedy! I ordered a "baseline" breakfast of Scrambled Eggs, 2 Sausage Patties, and a Biscuit & Gravy half order. The "Joffrey's" coffee was excellent. The one server, Bridget, (owner) easily handled the entire cafe. The two cooks (Shay) and the Bus Boy work as a Team with Bridget and it works good! I loved the banter and the good vibrations. I came back for Lunch three days later, ordered a Patty Melt with Chips, and now I sit for my third visit in the past week .. with Another Patty Melt! Nailed it! Love it made with a fat beef pattie, onions, andhugged by beautiful Seeded Rye! I'm dead serious when I say I love this diner with solid good homemade food at excellent prices and great value! I work out at The Y nearby. Jeff, I'm warning now! I'll be back .. often .. Geaux Saints! read more

Just an excellent place to grab some amazing breakfast. My wife and I are on vacation this week and we haven't stopped anywhere for breakfast yet. Tory's was the first place that popped us for us and we are really glad it did. Amazing vibes with amazing service and even better food at a really good price. Will 100% be back in the future next time we are in Clearwater. read more

We were down for vacation and found this place on Yelp. Best restaurant I've found for breakfast in the area!!! My wife was a little nervous driving to get there and thought it was a hole in the wall...but she raved how the music and food was amazing! Loved atmosphere and locals coming in along with the singing cook! Best playlist for morning breakfast! Cannot say how awesome this place is!!! Service was impeccable!!! My kid ate his whole m&m pancake and still killed his back which he's not a big breakfast eater. Will definitely visit again when down from Virginia!! read more

I've had both breakfast and lunch at this little place and both were excellent. The owners are delightful people. He cooks and she waits on tables. It's warm and friendly, with old rock and roll playing and lots of laughs among the regulars and owners. read more

This place was perfect!!! Small and boomin', I loved it! The service was beyond great, she worked her booty off! Thank you, I will be back!

Came here on one of our many stops on our trip and truly is a spot you NEED to check out. Coming from NY you don't find such nice people like this, amazing staff, and overall the vibe is just right! Can't say thank you enough for starting our Saturday off right! P.s LETS GO COWBOYS read more

I was skeptical of the perfect 5 stars that Tory's has..... but this place deserves every single star!!! Tory herself is an extremely hard worker and I love supporting a local business!! read more

BEST place to eat breakfast. Love the food and the atmosphere. Awesome family owned with kind service too

If you're looking for "Fresh Hot Great Breakfast" then head to Tory's Cafe, it is outstanding. I love my neighborhood gem. All "Fresh" ingredients is the key that makes everything simply delicious. Kristy and Scott, owners, make you feel welcome and have passion in what they do. I travel all over the country, dine out often and I have not found 1 place that can come close to Tory's for my hearty breakfast. Spotless and Not Overpriced . You will not be disappointed read more

Food was great. Owners were wonderful! Wife waited tables and husband sang as he cooked. At one moment the entire diner broke out in song together. read more

The Frank Sinatra album was crankin', the chef was singing, guests were visiting, service outstanding....darn I wished this delicious little Cafe was near my hometown! Chose a blast from the past... Chip beef and gravy on biscuits topped with an egg. ....DO IT! read more

I am so happy to have found this diner. First the food is great with probably the freshest tomato's I have seen in a restaurant. What really is special is the husband and wife team that run the diner. The service they provide make you feel like you are at a family's home. The ambiance is everything you would pray for in a diner. read more

Small cafe with great ambiance (if you enjoy 90s rock and the urge to sing along with the cook) which we really enjoyed. Friendly and personable staff. You could tell there were regulars that were also placing take-out orders after they ate in. Tried two of the day's specials, broccoli ham quiche and pumpkin bread French toast with their home fries (yum!). I've never heard of broccoli in quiche before but it definitely worked. The French toast was really tasty too. You could taste the pumpkin and it was served with whipped cream and homemade pumpkin frosting. It wasn't overly sweet and tasted great. It didn't need syrup which would have just taken away from its great taste. read more

Value is incredible as the food is stupid cheap. There's a fun vibe with the Philly native cooks/owners giving local regulars the business. Looks rough from the outside but the food was great. read more

Why 4 stars? I have to say I am impressed! The food is fresh, the portions are great and the price is right! This is a great option and right there with the First Watch of the world. I like this because it is more personal as you become family the more you visit. Owner is on site, staff is friendly and I will have to come back and try more dishes! read more

Lived in the area many years yet just found this place! So glad we did. Best breakfast place we have found. Delicious omelettes, eggs bene on special and perfect pancakes. Hubbys in love with the home fries, hard to get in Fl and they taste like REAL New England style home fries . Love the singing, the upbeat feel and a small business that really goes above and beyond to keep their customers happy. read more

Eggs Benedict great breakfast. Famly owned and run like being at your cousins place. Hraet sevice great price large portions no place i would choose over Torys read more

One of the best diners I've been to in the area. The ONE waitress is busy and very attentive at the same time. She remembered us on our second visit. Everything is made from scratch, like sweet tea from a jug in the fridge. Ice cubes from trays in a cooler. The only thing missing is no NY style sandwiches like cured meats. I'll definitely be making a third trip soon. read more

Really good family owned, family run breakfast and lunch spot. Huge portions, always friendy, quality product. Best pancakes in town. read more

Super good iced tea, clean bathroom in the restaurant is clean and friendly and cheap

The service, food and price are all checked. It's a small family style restaurant and very friendly service. To my surprise, the price is below average, but not the food. If you are in the area for breakfast and lunch, should give this a try. read more

Food and service is above and beyond. I have the eggs Benedict every weekend. Chef gets in extra early on weekends to make it fresh and from scratch. Would highly recommend read more

Best little hidden cafe. Gotta stop here. The food is fantastic and the cook is entertaining. There are old people, young people and everyone in between. The cooks music is loud and uplifting and he's sings to the top of his lungs to every song and so does everyone in the whole restaurant. There's only about 10 tables and a counter but it was definitely worth the stop. So entertaining and delicious. read more

Great little hole in the wall type of place, we found it on yelp so decided to stop in for a late breakfast. The place is very small but big enough to get the job done, husband & wife team that does a good job of taking care of their customers, the food comes of quick and hot. This is your basic breakfast staples type of food, nothing unusual or fancy, but very good, kinda like Dinners used to serve food 40 years ago. Parking a little tight but there's a lot next door that usually has some open spots. read more

I have to say I didn't know what to expect here but I'm glad we decided to eat breakfast. The portions were huge and the food was great. Not to mention the awesome prices to go with it. The place isn't very big but it was packed. This is one of those little gems that you find and want to keep coming back. My food was great and I had so much I couldn't even finish it all. The potatoes were probably my favorite part of the meal. The way they are cooked and seasoned really made them really good. I can't wait to go back again. read more

Got a gift certificate to Tory's as a gift. My $25 gift certificate paid for two visits for two people both times. Amazing, cheap breakfast. My favorite part about breakfast were the home fries. Omg so good. The chocolate chip pancakes were also yummy. I'm typically a French toast girl but I learned at my first visit that theirs was not "eggy" enough for me. Next time I'll ask them to use an extra egg. I really love the family feel in this place you can tell it's a family effort all around and our server which I think was the owner is so nice, attentive and welcoming. Not the place for parties of 5 or more as it's so small inside but great place for a quick, cheap and tasty breakfast, brunch of lunch. read more

Jeff and Bridget are the sweetest and make amazing food daily! Huge portions and at such a good price--you can't beat it!

Went to breakfast with hubby on a Sunday morning. It is a very small restaurant, so we had to wait a bit which was no issue. Frank Sinatra was playing on the radio and the cook was singing louder than the music was playing and he didn't have a very good voice. I ordered eggs with their whites fully cooked and yokes slightly running. I had to send the eggs back as they were well done. What came out the second time was very running eggs. The cook asked if they were okay because he didn't want to burn them. I said they were okay because all I really wanted to do was get out of that restaurant with all the noise. Hubby had a ham/cheese omelette which was nothing special. It seems like there is a regular clientele that we will not be joining. read more

One of the best places to have breakfast in the city. Very good prices with even better food and amazing service. EAT HERE!!!

The best biscuits and gravy in town! Great service, great prices! Good quality roast coffee in big coffee cups. Absolutely the best kept secret in Clearwater! Update: recently remodeled... Looks great! read more

Had an amazing experience! Visiting from New York and the vibes were just great . everyone was so friendly and the food was delicious. Prices were fantastic! Can't forget that everyone sings along to songs which makes it that much better . Highly recommend this place read more

We are the two out of towners that came in for breakfast last week, due to the five star reviews. We really enjoyed the hospitality and wonderful food. It was so good we had to come back the next day for breakfast. Jeff and his wife are super nice people that make you feel at home. If we are in town we will definitely stop in again. We HIGHLY recommend this place. read more

Delightful witty & talented owners Bridget (kind heart, beautiful soul) and Jeff (great cook and also often croons tunes as he cooks...a joy to hear and often we customers join in). Quiche, omelettes excellent. And grilled chicken sandwich is my new favorite. My husband is addicted to their tater tots and fish sandwich. We adore this cafe frequented by multi-generational and ethnically diverse people, sharing good food, smiles, conversation and music. read more

This place reminds me of a NJ deli I frequented growing up. Lots of regulars and Smiles. The owners were very nice and friendly and the food was just like home !!!! I will be back !!!! read more
