So… why the name Daddy Tom?
Daddy Tom is the nickname of co-owner, Greg Pezza’s, grandfather, Dr. Thomas Fannin. He was a family physician, veteran, musician, and life of the party.
While Dr. Fannin was abroad, his wife Leona, and their baby girl, Kathleen, lived with Leona’s parents in Conneaut, Ohio. The little girl came to call her grandfather “Daddy” and when Tom returned after an absence of four years, she called him “Daddy Tom” to differentiate. The name stuck.
Our cocktails are carefully designed, often using the “slow drinks” method where there is a premium put on ingredients and there is a story in every pour.
