The absolute best diner in Ohio is right here in Cbus, according to international publication

There’s something about a diner that exudes comfort. Yes, the greasy breakfast staples we grew up eating before we started worrying about counting calories definitely help with that, but it’s the ambiance, too – most people’s phones are put away, and there’s constant chatting and dishes clattering, which somehow create a symphony. To put it simply, diners are timeless. They’re nostalgic. And they’re the perfect place to spend a Saturday or Sunday morning.

Fortunately for Columbus, we have the best diner in all of Ohio. According to Lovefood, an international food publication, Tommy’s Diner is the best in the state, and I think many Ohio residents would agree. 

“The food is made from scratch, and is all the better for it; here, you’ll find soft and fluffy biscuits with a craggy exterior, perfectly golden hash browns, and meat cooked with a smoky flavor. It’s always busy, and for good reason,” said Lovefood.

The iconic checkered floors and red leather booths transport you to a 1960’s diner, and the familiar faces of servers, cooks, and the owners make you feel right at home. Tom and Kathy Pappas first opened Tommy’s in 1989, right on 914 W. Broad St, and since then, this iconic diner has received many accolades.

Their simple, affordable, no-frills breakfast and lunch menu hits the spot every single time, and it’s no wonder it’s considered Ohio’s best. 

They’re open every single day, from 6:30am to 2:30pm. See you in line there this weekend!
