There’s no doubt about it: Nebraska is home to countless delicious restaurants, and while we enjoy trying new restaurants as often as we can, sometimes you need to indulge in some good, old-fashioned comfort food from a local diner. Whether you’re looking for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, this classic restaurant in the Nebraska prairie offers some mighty mouthwatering meals in a homey atmosphere that will take you back to simpler times.
If you’re looking for high-quality, fresh, and delicious meals any time of the day in central Nebraska, look no further than Tommy’s Family Restaurant.
A local favorite in Grand Island, Nebraska for more than 25 years, this classic diner will take you on a journey back in time to a simpler era. With red and white striped booths as well as swivel bar stools and old-fashioned decor, it doesn’t get much better than this.
From pancakes, french toast, and waffles to omelets, eggs, and meat, your breakfast favorites all have a place on the menu at Tommy’s. Served 24/7, you can enjoy breakfast anytime — whether it's 5 a.m. or 11 p.m.
Burgers and sandwiches are the name of the game at lunchtime and are served with your choice of french fries, onion chips, soup, or coleslaw. Order a classic chicken fried steak sandwich, BLT, or french dip, or opt for something a little more unique like their Blueberry turkey melt or pizza burger.
Meat lovers will salivate over their dinner menu, which features buffalo, beef, ham, and chicken fried steaks as well as meatloaf, pork loins, roast beef, and char-broiled sirloin. Of course, you'll also find a variety of salads and side orders in addition to spaghetti.
Don’t forget to save room for dessert! Tommy’s serves up a dozen varieties of sweet and scrumptious pie — from fruit pies like apple, cherry, peach, and strawberry rhubarb to chocolate peanut butter, sour cream raisin, and pecan. You'll even find that milkshakes and malts have a place on this menu.
