What’s In a Name?
Tom, Dick & Harry’s is named after the three escape tunnels in The Great Escape. With a focus on impeccably sourced British ingredients, it made sense to use a very British idiom for the restaurant. Meaning either everyone, multiple persons, or persons of no note ‘not any old Tom Dick & Harry’, it dates back to the 19th century when Tom, Dick & Harry were very commonplace names with the earliest reference can be found in Shakespeare’s Henry IV!
So, whether our restaurant is for every Tom, Dick & Harry or not just any old Tom Dick & Harry, time will tell, but we think we’ve created something very special in the heart of our home town. So, whatever your name and whoever you are we hope to see you soon!
