Tom Wahl's in Avon has been a family tradition for upstate New Yorkers since 1955. Customers have been known to travel great distances just to enjoy a juicy Wahlburger, hot crispy fries and a frosted mug or two of our delicious handcrafted root beer. Today we still handcraft the root beer in each store the same as Tom's first batch, but we now have 9 upstate locations.

The reasons that Tom Wahl's has thrived are numerous. No matter what, Tom would never cut back on the quality of the items he sold. Tom is not a man that would ever bring this up, but a huge reason the business grew year after year was Tom himself. Tom had the unique ability to surround himself with talented people that followed his lead in taking care of the business.

1986 brought a new chapter as Tom sold the business to a small group of local business owners. Using the methods and principles that Tom established continues to provide a road map for success.

2006-06-03 04:55:56   i noticed that the Tom Wahl's that was in the Marketplace mall food court is now an Abbott's (at least the ice cream is....) didn't notice if the Tom Wahl's burger joint became a Bill Gray's! —JcPop

2008-01-19 18:19:29   I went here once couple of years ago and got the fish fry and i really liked it. My second time was at the mall in Greece and i got the fish sadwich for lunch, and it was not good at all and it was very pricey for a fish sandwich even though i bought it with a coupon. And my most recent visit was the one in Bushnell's Basin and this visit was bad also. I don't know what the hype is about on Tom Wahls. I got grill chicken sandwich (it was kind of cold and it wasn't breaded) and the bread was really small, didn't fill me up at all. This place is in my opinion is very overpriced for the amount and the quality of food they offer. —DougAvery

Tom Wahl's is all about the root beer. It's caramel, buttered rum, a Werther's original. It doesn't taste harsh or overly carbonated. It almost demands to be sipped and savored rather than guzzled.

Root beer that's too good for a bottle. —ZachSmalt
