The Fox Valley is lucky to have Tom's. Great fast food, huge variety, and gigantic portions for a very reasonable price. This is our go-to place for the days we're swamped and can't make dinner at home. The staff are always nice--that and the quality of food remain constant no matter what location you go to, it seems. read more

We wanted to grab something local before heading to the airport and gave Toms a try. When you think Drive In you think of classic good food. We ordered the buffalo chicken wrap, burgers, shakes and cheese curds. The burgers were flavorless and my kids compared it to McDonalds....which they dislike. The cheese curds tasked of old grease. The shakes were not smooth and full of crunchy ice. Not enjoyed and we threw most of the food and drinks away. The old feeling is absolutely gone and disappointed in the quality for a $60 lunch. read more

Piper Hoffman was very kind and understanding when taking my order, as I had never been here before. The food was out very quickly, and it was delicious. The family pack is a great option for a large number of people, and with five people in our family, it was a great pick. While seated, we couldn't find a single spec of food on any of the tables. read more

Went to the drive thru. I think if you order a burger with pickles, onions and mustard that there's a reasonable expectation that you will get it that way. Not so much. Swimming in catchup, some pickles, and no evidence of any onions. Also, a patty that is dryer than an oxen's fart. There are plenty of other fast food options in the area, avoid this place unless you're into random food you didn't order. read more

I don't know how people like Toms I've tried them on and off for years I don't know maybe with the thought that they would be better but they aren't. It's always a weird greasy taste, and fries are gross. I don't get what the big deal is. Service is always slow went through the drive through a couple times and waited a minimum of 20 min with only 2 people ahead of us inside was probably about the same. At one point we didn't even stick around. read more

Excellent service! Great food! Have you noticed McD & King sandwiches have become sliders. With a raise in price. You won't see this at Tom's Drive In. Still big sandwiches, at great prices, with great service!!!!!! read more

Coke and Pepsi Located right next to McD, Tom's is a great alternative. I stopped here while in town as my Appleton go-to was out of reach with Oktoberfest going on. I liked the fact that they offer both Coke and Pepsi. I had a double cheese with fries and would say it's similar to what you'd get at someplace like Culvers and the prices were reasonable. Service was super friendly. The menu has so many options and I head the cashier ask someone else if they'd like something custom off-menu. read more

Toms is my fave fast food (and I frequent the fast food establishments) cheese curds, burgers and arctic blasts are always phenomenal! I was saddened to hear they don't have the crunch cone anymore but will be sure to find a new favorite :) will be back as always read more

My second favorite local burger joint (JD's being #1). Great burgers, awesome cheese curds, LOVE they way they do the bacon for their burgers. I try to come here everytime I am in town visiting family. I re-lived a bit of my childhood today and got a bubble gum flavored slushie. Delicious! Great service. (they could do with a good floor mopping...someone must have spilled a drink at some point today...I was sticking to the floors). read more

Tom's Drive In - Cheese curds and bubble gum slushie - Fast Food Near Me - Appleton, Wisconsin

Me and the gal pals got icecream earlier today. Overall, it was pretty good minus the one peanut butter twist cone we got. We asked for it to be in a dish and a cone because of the mess but that wasn't where the issue was though. We got like either mint syrup or green food coloring in it because her icecream was all light green at the bottom of her cone. Maybe it was a mistake, but it definitely was a surprise! read more

I 100% recommended Tom's it has the best food ever in my opinion. Everyone is always so nice and don't get me started in the food, from the cheese curds to the shakes it is all amazing read more

Tom's is an institution here in the Fox Valley. They's been around since I was a kid, and their quality and customer service has always been top notch. Tom's is a burger joint, sure, but have many other menu items including popcorn, snow cones and such. I love that they offer a veggie burger! Their fries are okay, although I prefer crisper fries than the ones they serve. They's always hot, fresh, and tasty, though! They do a brisk drive-through business, but stop into the place sometime. Great vintage car photos and "skid marks" on the floor. Lots of fun! read more

Quality is somewhere between Mc Donald's and Culvers. Stopped in and got a cheeseburger, chicken sandwich and a twist cone. The cheeseburger was warm but really lacked anything special. The picture items on the menu show a burger packed with veggie toppings and a sesame seed bun. I got a cheeseburger with sparse limp toppings and no sesame seeds to be seen. The twist cone was fantastic and it is getting harder to find them around lately. I would try them again to see what a full meal would be like. read more

Thank you for taking our order and agreeing to wait for us to arrive right at closing time. Tom's cheeseburger and fries equals One happy football player! read more

Great drive in. Cheese curds are very good and the shakes are reminiscent of the good old days. Give it a try for a quick bite

Toms Drive in is Great! The food tastes great and the staff is really friendly. My wife and I have gone back several times. On a Hot (or Cold) day the ice cream is amazing. You can get twist cones and you can tell it's made with real ice cream, my son loves it. We will continue to return to Toms Drive In read more

I always love to get these burgers when I go back home. It's comfort food for me so this review is rather biased. Quick friendly service. I always get lots of tasty burgers with their classic works sauce. Their menu has expanded since I was a child. I wonder how those other things taste. I'll probably never know. read more

I've always heard such great things, but this was awful. My cheese curds were burnt, the burger was far beyond the "good" greasy burger line but managed to have zero flavor and the slushie was truly disgusting. I won't eat here again. read more

I've given Toms 3 chances over the last few years. Tonight was the last chance. I got $31 worth of food with my gf. I myself got the chipotle chicken wrap. It was 70 percent lettuce had dry chicken and MAYBE a tsp of chipotle. It was terrible. I wont be giving them my business again. Ever. read more

I ordered family pack of chesseburgers and fries. Burgers are basically tasteless and the fries were soggy. I asked for the fries well done with low salt and they were salty and soggy. I ended up tossing most of the food. read more

Fabulous local fast food- if you have a choice between Tom's and McDonalds when you are in Appleton and you choose McD's you are certifiably insane. A must is to get the cheese curds or mozzarella sticks when you go here. Ice cream is good as well- my kids love it there. Reasonable prices, and one caveat- you MUST eat the food while it is hot. Tom's is delicious when eaten right away, but the fries give you a crisco feel on the roof of your mouth if you let them get cold before you eat them! read more

Tom's has a very friendly staff! I came in for a pumpkin (blizzard?) and they gave me a bag of popcorn to go! The blizzard was actually pretty good too! I've gone here a few times now and am never disappointed! read more

Solid drive in experience. Very good fries, when you go there at busy times.

Come on over to Toms!! I like this place, the perch sandwich is a special treat. Service is good and the history of the place is printed on the bags. read more

Stopped in the other day, so using this location for a review, but all of the Tom's are mostly the same. Like some other said, after moving away to the Milwaukee area, Tom's is total comfort food for me whenever I return to the Fox Valley. I miss the burgers and fries so much....and peanut butter cup Arctic Blasts. Yum. The burgers are nothing fancy, typical fast food size, but they always just taste..."fresh". I know that's a weird way to summarize a greasy fast food burger, but it tastes like it was just made and has a decent firmness/texture for a thin fast food burger. I can tell I'm eating a burger and not just mush on a bun. As a kid growing up in Appleton, I ate so much Tom's (on Wisconsin Ave across from the old Appleton Papers) that I eventually grew sick of it and took it for granted. As an adult, I now miss it so much! read more

Excellent ice cream treats! The restaurant is clean, the service is good and the ice cream is really yummy. Most shakes melt and become too liquid very quickly, but the mint shake I had at Tom's stayed thick and creamy. The prices are also very reasonable. We will definitely return. read more

I moved to Colorado 20 years ago and every time we are in town we have to make a Toms stop at least once!

Yum Yum Yum....I am knocked up and holy schmidt I love those damn cheesecurds and raspberry sundaes. Only about 1.70 for a giant ass sundae! Good thing it is a few miles drive away to get some of this food crack. read more

We have eaten here only about 2 times since we moved here and the food is disgusting at all locations and service is always slow regardless if it's busy or not it's not worth my time or money read more
