What could be better than a big hearty burger with a side of French fries? Here in Ohio, we don't think so. That's why so many of our restaurateurs have dedicated their livelihoods to developing the perfect burger. And if you've ever had one, you might agree that they've succeeded.
Here are the best burger places in Ohio!
The Thurman Cafe, Ohio
Since its opening in 1942, the Thurman Cafe has been a landmark in the Columbus area. It recently gained national attention when featured on "Man vs. Food" for its massive "Thurmanator" burger. With two 12-ounce burgers, bacon, ham, pickle, banana peppers, mushrooms, onions, and two kinds of cheese, it's the giant burger you'll ever struggle to finish.
A landmark in German Village since 1942, the Thurman Cafe has been serving meals since 1942. The restaurant has retained its roots despite being owned by family members and opened by Nick Suclescy. The best burgers in Columbus are still on the menu, and old favorites like Our Famous Coney Island.
