    Roast beef on a croissant with cheese!
    Holly R.

    I have been coming here since I was a young girl -it's amazing. Massive sandwiches, wonderful memories, and an amazing selection. The staff are friendly and the food is SO good. Prices have gone up over the years, but it's so worth it. There is a selection of deli meats, cheeses, salads, hot food such as lasagna and schnitzel, and a wide range of imported yummies on the shelves. I LOVE the Golden Rooster - it's always on my list when I'm in Kingston. Grab a tray and relax in their seating area, or take it to go for the best pic-nic food you will ever eat! Keep up the good work, Rooster!

    This place is always busy and requires you to take a number before being served, but the staff are fast and efficient and they serve a variety of hot comfort food as well as your choice of different deli sandwich combinations. I had a chicken pot pie and my friend had lasagna. We got it to go but there are plenty of tables to sit at especially since their recent renovation. If you want good, inexpensive , wholesome and tastey food this is a great place to go for lunch.

    My fiancé's own words about this place. He doesn't have Yelp because his phone is old and lousy, so I posted the review for him.

    Very decent sandwiches. Crowded but sometimes inexplicably so. Easy place to grab a bite but reminds me of a place I'd take my grandmother.

    BEST REUBEN IN TOWN! And the only slaw I've ever liked. There's a reason why it's always busy!

    This place is pretty poppin' on a Sunday. Talk about popular brunch spots. First come, first…read moreserved, no reservations. I know this place exists because of their generosity to Camp Outlook. They have absolutely 100% scrumptious bread! And baked goodies. I love their dinner buns. They are made in this pull-a-part style and absolutely delicious to accompany soup, or toasted with butter, or, Pb&J, or cheese. Almost anything really, you can't go wrong. I was in Kingston recently and really wanted those dinner buns, unfortunately they didn't have them. Not on Sunday, not on Monday. I settled for their mini olive and rosemary dinner rolls. They were good too. Service here is pretty on point. There was a question I had asked the lady behind the counter and she came out from behind the counter to help answer any questions I had and serve me. She was really awesome! They have a catering menu, a cafe for brunch, they have fresh breads available and they do specialty cakes. They are totally the real deal. AND they sell Neal Brothers' cheese puffs. Havent been able to find these bad boys anywhere. They discontinued them in grocery retailers and health food stores don't seem to carry them. I'm in Toronto and havent been able to find them for a couple of years. They are a pretty penny, yet worth it for the sheer pleasure. Their store front is spacious and inviting. Certainly the place to be, everyone seemed to be walking in when I went. It is very well known. They can for sure accomodate a large amount of people. I would most definitely revisit when Im in the city next.

    Staffs are friendly. The sit down cafe was full service. Wished they had a place to sit down for…read morethose of us who wanted the bakery. We winded up eating in our car. The sliced turkey with 2 years aged cheddar on rye bread was delish. The dressing was refreshing as well. The Portuguese egg tart was different from NYC. Maybe it would've kicked it up a notch if it was warmed up with a more crisp. But also yummy.

    This was my birthday breakfast and it was so good! Tommy's…read moreis a cute little 50's diner. I loved the checkerboard floor and the records on the ceiling. The place is a bit dated and could use some fresh updates to the decorating, but it was still charming, comfortable seating, had tv to watch...but was VERY hot inside. My trip to Kingston fell, of course, during that heat dome event...and I already HATE summer and hot weather. The temperature in the restaurant wasn't terrible but I was sweating. Turned out to be worth it. They have a full bar and Laura, my server, made me a pineapple mimosa on request. She looked to be handling the fairly busy place by herself with help from I believe the owner or manager. She handled everything very well and wasn't too busy to tell me Happy Birthday (I had on a shirt and she was one of the few people who did) and chat a bit and be friendly. I appreciated that. She was obviously very hot running inside and out to the patio tables, but she maintained her composure and worked very hard. I ordered the breakfast poutine and they added the pulled pork to it when I asked. I also got a side of the baked beans. The fries were very fresh, crispy and tender. There were scrambled eggs, fresh crumbled bacon, cheese sauce and that glorious pulled pork on top. I really enjoyed this dish. Great idea, breakfast poutine! While eating I got to speak the owner (I believe she was). She was from Arizona so we are both dual citizens. We had a good talk about Dump decimating the US. The owner is a very liberal, accepting, kind person. Makes you feel good to support businesses run by compassionate people. The service was great. Food was phenomenal. Yes, the beans were so tasty too. Kind staff. Cute decor. I am returning to Kingston in October and will definitely be stopping in at Tommy's again. Fantastic diner food!
