User review by steveyao – thurman's is an excellent place to go and possibly home to the biggest burger around. not a dried up burger like other chain restaurants... big and juicy and full of flavor. there is a wait... especially in groups of people.. but once in, the food is excellent. service is real... eat your food... enjoy it.. and feel satisfied! i rave about it to all my friends and people i meet.
Not the fries! – A very good burger. Good onion rings. The potato chips are better than the fries and they come with the burgers!! Small and crowded so plan to wait if you come for lunch, or other peak times !! Parking can be a challange too.
Thurman's Hands Down – Columbus, you should be able to remember the old Wendy's commercial with the old lady saying, "Where's the beef?", well it's not at Wendy's folks, she should have been doing the commercial for Thurman's. If you are looking for the best burger place in the midwest, Thurman's Cafe is your dream come true!!!! I give them a 15 out of 10!!!
Great - Nay-sayers just don't get it – The place is kind of rustic, casual, the people I got service from were rough around the edges but certainly not rude. These people aren't there to powder your nose, they're there to serve you one of the very best burgers in the US. I was there on a College Football Saturday, where the visiting teams' garb and I was treated fine, friendly people in front of and behind the bar. There was a long wait, you don't get greeted, you write your name down and slip into the bar to pick up a beer ... read more
RUDE SERVICE!! LONG WAIT!! – I brought a few co-workers here for an enjoyable meal. This hardly was the case! Not only did we have to wait over 30 minutes to be seated we were not even acknowleged for coming in. Eventually I had to find the manager to see when we were to be seated to find out our name was skipped on the sign in sheet. We were asked to go back and sit in the waiting area for our food to arrive since we had to make our order TO GO due to the long wait. We had to get back to work and couldn't wait any longer. I... read more
unpleasant experience – I have visted thurmans several times, i expect the wait. But my last experience was the worst one of my life i will NEVER recommend anyone going there again and i was embrassed i took co-workers to experience the rude treatment . When did the ratings get so high you can treat your customers so rude!!!!!!!
Everything is made once u order it. – The Thurman Cafe Is Great. It is hands down the best resturant in the state. It is small and cozy, a nice changeup from your chain restaurants. I know the owners and know that their huge burgers dont contain filler and do not sit in warmers. Trust me the Thurman Cafe is worth your time. The only possible complaint is that they make you TOO FULL.
Fun Place – Hamburgers are huge and delicious. Sub sandwiches are also great and highly recommended. Ambiance is very casual and friendly. It has a neighborhood bar feel because that is just what it is. The place has a long history of providing excellent food and service. Enjoy. You won't be disappointed.
meat meat and more meat – This is one of the biggest burgers i have ever had but not necessarily the best. The Thurmans burger was highly recommended and thus i had to try it out. Waarning: Order it only if you haven't eaten for the past three days and have a gigantic meat craving. Also the bun almost falls off due to the size of the patty. Not a good place to take a date unless you enjoy being messy with your food.
