About

We have been at our Aurora location since 1995 and are best known for our wings and dill sauce, ribs, burgers, home made soups and daily specials. Since the conclusion of COVID, raw food costs have soared. Despite these severe supply increases, we've been very hesitant to increase our prices. We are striving to provide our customers with a variety of high quality food selections and affordable prices. Please stop by with friends and family to experience the Tjs menu selections with our quality and value pledge to all our customers.

An Aurora classic !!! Best wings in town for over 25 years …. Literally Auroras “Cheers” You get to see familiar faces and the staff and regulars are friendly and welcoming, they remember my drink no matter how long it’s been since they last saw me!!! Prices are so reasonable compared to most , plus half price on Tuesdays too!!! No onion chips anymore but the dill dip is best anywhere !!! I will always enjoy going here !!! Highly recommended

Love this place and I meet with my friends from my hockey playing days often for lunch and a beer. They have great tasting chicken wings! Always the most friendly service as well which makes you feel right at home! Cheers, Mike Edwards

Returned after 20 years (moved from Aurora) and not much has changed (apart from the name, long live Tom & Jerry's) The chicken wings w steak fries and dill ranch dipping sauce are still the go to. The atmosphere is a bit tired and the place was empty at 6pm on a Sat night. But the service was great and I will return when I'm in the mood for the world famous wings.

Went here Sat March 04 after a friends passing to catch up, have a cheers, and discuss all the great times we had. I didn't get our servers name (she finished work @5pm) but she was very attentive to our table and gave her condolences to us - she was very kind and enjoyed her service. The music selection played was unreal, we loved it. Prices are reasonable at this local neighbourhood pub, would recommend.

Stopped in on our way home from a job. So glad we did. The place was small, inviting & clean. The waitress was great, and on the ball. She diligently verified our vaccine passport and sat us down. 👍🏾👍🏾 Two thumbs up for that. Thank you! We ordered fish tacos and a hamburger. The fries that came with the hamburger were great! The Caesar salad that I had with my fish tacos was perfect, amazing Caesar dressing AND just the right amount!! Honestly, I’d drive back there from Durham, ON. Cheers !

It's ok. Food and Service lacks the care and spunk it once had. Staff just seems to be going through the motions. Salad and Pasta was good. Veal was over cooked and black on the edges.

Kelly was excellent! Great service. My friend and I ordered two baskets of fries with extra dill sauce (which is a MUST it s delicious, trust me.) Great portions! Dill sauce a plenty. Great prices, affordable. Very clean inside! Bathrooms were, too. Looking forward to hopefully spending more time there and wishing them success!! Happy to see they re still open. They re a staple here in Aurora. Would recommend and will be back.

Best wings in the gta, decent prices, fast service and consistent food quality

December 21, 2020

Wings were not at all fresh. Were blackened on the tips and very tough. I suspect they were refried/recooked. Was sick all day the following day. I ve been going to Tom and Jerry s Aurora for years and unfortunately this is not the first time this has happened recently. Felt it was necessary to mention it in this review. I hope they are able to return to the higher quality standards of their former selves. Beware.

Ordered a fish and chip sandwich, and it was amazing! Also the service was fantastic. They also are following Covid requirements which is really nice to see with smaller bars like this. Kelly and Mel were very nice waitresses. Couldnt give 5 stars because the womans washroom, the couple times Ive been, was not clean and quite dirty.

Our waitresses was nice and the food came quickly but I cant recommend this place due to how expensive the food is and how little you get

December 21, 2019

*Attention* To the owner: It is stated that your bistro closes at 2 AM on a Saturday night. Yet, for the past 3 times I have tried calling past 12 AM, I was not able to reach your staff to make an order. Please fix this problem or a customer will be lost. As for tonight its Pizza Pizzas wings for me.

Was not happy at all beside the food tasting awesome... the waitress with the blond hair needs more customer service. She didn t even ask if we enjoyed our food or nothing but we noticed that she asked other customers about their food. To say at the least we did not enjoy our time here at all. This is the place that I suggested. Needless to say I think we will won t be back!

Wish I could give them negative stars. Placed an order on a Friday night through door dash that would never be delivered. Ive been a regular customer at tom and Jerrys for years and have visited both their Newmarket and Aurora locations, not the best food but its a good option for my family who eats out allot. On this particular night we placed an order through a delivery app and all was well until my delivery driver arrived and was met by a disgruntled manager demanding and yelling at the driver that the order was $10 more than the total we had paid, when we asked to speak to the manager he was just as rude to us saying saying we could remove food from our order or pay more. It was never made clear why all of a sudden our order was more expensive but his rude and aggressive behaviour towards our delivery driver prompted us to just cancel the order. Im honestly appalled by how a manager handled this situation and acted towards customers and delivery personnel. Completely unacceptable. My family will not be customers of tom and Jerrys in the future, this type of customer care is unacceptable.

I have been to Tom and Jerrys for years and I have noticed that over the years, the wings/legs offered are noticably smaller. Every couple of months I come back and hope that it has improved. Sometimes the wings and legs are so small that they are quite over-cooked compared to the rare larger sized wing. The dill sauce they use has always tasted good. Their suicide sauce is not really suicide, its just hotter than hot at best. I always like their fries.

Been many times, great spot, food is well made and very reasonably priced. service is quite decent. I mean, for the money, you cant do any better at all. I go here all the time. I give it only 4 stars because of the website. the website is a disaster and the menu on it is completely unreadable. Makes ordering for pickup very hard.
