    If I drive between Estherville and Ames on US 169, the Tom Thumb Drive Inn is a logical stop to enjoy a bite and otherwise take a welcome break. This place was here when I grew up in this area, and it seems to still be going strong. In fact, I during our last visit, I think I got into a fun conversation with old Tom himself. Tom Thumb is a little bit of an odd duck in it's orientation. Their Bakery (great breads and pies) is in front, followed by a small DQ, and then a hometown restaurant taking up the majority of the property. The menu is a full one and features all sorts of comfort food and some Iowa-specific choices like Pork Tenderloin sandwiches. The food is plentiful, decent, and relatively inexpensive. The place itself is very down home retro and with interesting and welcoming locals to match.

    Small portions but inexpensive and small town charming/odd. Flavors were decent for our road trip dinner when we were starving. Pie crust was nice and flakey.

    Was staying in town for a wedding and decided to try this place out since it was so close to the hotel. They definitely need to upgrade the interior design. It's just so old looking. Like another reviewer stated, there is a Dairy Queen attached which was odd but nice to see. I only ordered the chili as everything else didn't seem pleasing to the eyes. After taking a bite it was pretty darn bland. Thankfully this was the only time I was ever going to be eating there.

    Well first off it's got a dairy queen attached to the front The second all home made pie and the one I'm going to try is sour cream raisin, they have about 10 different types Just got the food and they give you an actual damp towel for extra clean up But the food is just ok,the chicken has been fried earlier and held in a warmer But the staff and place is so 50's that I'm willing to let it slide So if your in fort dodge you gotta go TRY IT!
