Tom Wahl's Avon

Honestly, Tom Wahl’s was a big disappointment. The food reminded me of elementary school cafeteria lunches — bland and underwhelming. The burger had no real flavor, and the chili cheese fries were pretty forgettable. The only real highlight was the homemade root beer, which was actually really good. Overall, the place feels very overrated. Based on this experience, I wouldn’t come back.

Awesomeness. I don't know why I haven't been here yet! Might be one of the bestest coolest establishments. Ever. AND THEY SERVE GARBAGE PLATES! FOR THE WIN! And Frosted mug for pop? Win. And home made root beer? Win. And perfect crispy onion rings? Win.

It’s been a long time since I last went to Tom Wahl’s and it was so yummy! I ordered the 55 Junker Plate which is basically a garbage plate for those who know you know, they have a bunch of other things there like hamburgers, cheeseburgers, hot dogs and more! They also have ice cream and milkshakes, there is a lot of cool food there and they even have their own homemade root beer! The restaurant itself has a very retro style look and it feels like a step back in time! Very 50s! However the restaurant is generally very crowded so go earlier in the day or in the evening

They offer a wrapped gluten-free bun (you add the burger to the bun). Highly recommend if you're celiac or gluten-free. The ice cream servings are huge, fair warning, a small will probably do the trick! Haha. The staff serving that night commented how they love witnessing customers' reactions when they see what a "medium" or "large" soft serve look like. They provided a fountain beverage cup just in case, so the ice cream wouldn't tumble to the ground! It was great fun!

Ask for a frosty mug and fill it with their root beer. The best! Get your burger all the way with that hot sauce. Not too hot but packs a flavor punch.
