About Major Tom's

Major Tom’s pairs unpretentious burgers and Australian craft beers with live sets in a room lined with music memorabilia. Piper Street regulars treat the haunt as an essential pitstop when town winds down early—counter orders turning out fresh brioche buns, grilled mushrooms, and stringy fries in minutes. Live bands pack the floor on gig nights, while sunny afternoons drift into the beer garden out back alongside jalapeño margaritas and pints from independent taps.

  • Live Music Venue: Local bands and ticketed touring acts perform on the floor surrounded by retro music posters.
  • Beer Garden Sessions: A leafy outdoor space dedicated to trivia competitions, local craft beers, and long afternoons.
  • Reliable Casual Dining: Fast turnarounds on stacked brioche burgers and seasoned fries when other town kitchens close early.
