01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
The surface gives a gentle crunch under the knife, while the centre is moist, soft and fluffy. Tommy’s homemade hotcakes, cooked on a copper griddle, are a signature dish that draws some diners in its own right. Order them plain to enjoy their simple flavour, or add fresh cream, chocolate or custard cream for extra sweetness. There are savoury choices too, including cheese burgers, chicken burgers and the Sunberg, filled with ham, lettuce and mayonnaise—handy when you want something more substantial than a sweet treat.
Choose a drink to go with your hotcake from blended or American coffee, or straight coffees such as mocha, Kilimanjaro and Mandheling. The selection suits those who want to take their time over a coffee after eating, while hot dogs, ham roast sandwiches and cheese toast make it easy to put together a light meal with a cup of coffee.
Tommy is open from 10:00 to 17:00, Tuesday to Friday, and is closed at weekends. Payment is cash only, so come prepared if you are stopping by for a hotcake and coffee.
