“serving altoona for over 75 years!”
Tom & Joe's has been serving Altoona, Pennsylvania for over 75 years and has become a local institution providing a fun and energetic diner atmosphere. Founded by Tom Batrus and brother Joe in December 1933 at the original location shown above. Joe sold out in the late 1940s and Tom continued to run the business under the name Tom & Joes. In 2002, the upper section was remodeled by updating the seating, counter, and flooring. Some of the original decor was still maintained throughout the remodel including the knotty pine walls, counter tops, and table tops. Tom and Joes is now in its third generation of management with Tom's grandson George Jr. now managing the daily operations.

He will be missed, but never forgotten.
