I guess we just don't travel up to these here parts, eh.
We, okay, I, was hungry and this is what we wanted...burgers!
None of this fancy customize your burger business here containing pampered gourmet beef or sustainable lettuce from blah blah blah, no homemade ketchup or artisanal bread that cuts the roof of your mouth.
Sometimes you just want just regular food.
As promised, the burgers witha side of fries...
Cathy's burger with lettuce, onions, and tomatoes.
Mine was the same but with a slice of cheese.
This really hit the spot after our long day!
If Bert, TC and I ever travel up the I-15 for a future road trip, we just may stop by here!
Maybe we can get a new shed (yah-huh) or ride a pony! But seriously, there were lots of unique food items there that I'd love to try given a second chance to visit.
Tom's Farms Old Fashioned Hamburgers
(located at, DUH, Tom's Farms off the I-15)
23900 Temescal Canyon Road
Corona, CA 92882
(951) 277-4103
Take a looksee at their menu.
We went to A HELL OF A LOT of bakeries that day, all of different nationalities (Taiwanese, Korean, Japanese, Australian, French)!
We also sampled macarons from Bon Epi, Euro Pane, and 'Lette. Just like Boy Scouts, we were prepared and packed a couple of coolers with ice for our "food souvenirs" because we're crafty like that.
'Twas a fun day full of baked goods and meeting Marvin Gapultos (from the blog Burnt Lumpia) at his book signing.
And thus concludes the end of my Epic Road Trip with Cathy which may be read in this order:

It's always fun traveling with a fellow food geek who didn't mind all the crazy stops!

Fun series of posts! I went to Tom Farm's when I was a kid and maybe a little older. Whenever we pass it on the way out of town I think we should stop, but then by that time I just want to get home already! The burger looks yummy, though.
Hi Mary - thanks! that was such a fun day! If my family and I ever drive up the 15, we will stop by to eat and maybe shop for local produce/cheese/etc.
oh, they also do Civil War re-enactments at Tom's Farms. Cathy sent me some info on that. I remember you did a post before on a Civil War event.
This was such a fun road trip and a good way to end the long day; so glad you said you were hungry two exits before we got here. They do bake the buns for the burgers and hot dogs (as well as the bread in the cheese shop (it's hot every half hour on busy weekends) and of course the pizzas). I just read on the website that you get free food on your birthday with ID...road trip!
hey, another birthday place! but i usually stay close to home on my actual bday. I like it when you can just go to a place during your bday month instead of the actual day.
thanks for picking this place, the Tom's Farms complex! very fascinating and full of sensory overload.
