great food-beers-staff-cash only -- when I lived here I loved to come to Tommy's -- either alone or with friend(s) -- one can share a table with others and not feel pressured to visit - one can read, etc., eat and drink economically and catch a bus across the street or a cab! There is an ATM machine if you need one - but I always have cash available. The only negative are the homeless that hang around to pan handle - I do not hand out cash -- I will hand out food and I've asked a polite person what they would like off the menu. Especially if it is chilly--someone might prefer to have the hot stew than a sannich. But a beer/drink/that's all mine. One of the bartenders was my Express bus driver -- I could not figure out where I saw his face until I sat at the bar late one afternoon and he told me--what a delightful very local charming place.
