The Thurman Café is one of Columbus’ most popular restaurants. Considered by many to be the home of the best burgers in the United States, The Thurman Café was founded by Nick Suclescy in 1942 and it has remained a family-owned bar and café ever since - staying true to its roots along the way! Located just a ten-minute drive from the home of the Columbus Blue Jackets, The Thurman Café is a landmark in the German Village - an area just south of Downtown Columbus that was built in the 19th century.

The burgers at The Thurman Café are legendary. The beef quality here is superb and each burger is perfectly cooked, remaining juicy and full of flavor until the final bite. Having been featured in countless forms of media - including being on the first season of Man v. Food with Adam Richman - there is no doubting the quality of the burgers at The Thurman Café. On Man v. Food, Adam enjoyed The Thurman Café’s namesake, the Thurman Burger. If you're not sure what to order at The Thurman Café, we definitely recommend going with the Thurman Burger. Similar to all of their burgers in the sense that it is over-sized and over-loaded with toppings, the Thurman Burger comes topped with ham, sautéed onions and mushrooms, mozzarella and American cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, banana peppers, mayo, chips, and a pickle spear! When The Thurman Café was featured on Man v. Food, they used this as an opportunity to reintroduce one of their most famous burgers - the Thurmanator. The Thurmanator was momentarily off of The Thurman Café's menu but is now back in full force. This monstrosity of a burger actually originally gained popularity for being the go-to-meal for bodybuilders looking to treat themselves after competing in the Arnold Classic. Here's how the Thurmanator breaks down. First, the burgers bottom bun - obviously.  This bottom bun is topped with mayo, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, banana peppers, and the burger's first 12-ounce patty. This patty is followed by bacon, cheddar cheese and another 12-ounce burger patty, which is then topped with sautéed onions and mushrooms, ham, and mozzarella and American cheese before being squished beneath the top bun. This burger is not for the faint of heart! 

The Thurman Café is a lively and rustic tavern beloved for all of their American cuisine, not just their large burgers. Other longtime favorites - including their Famous Coney Island dogs - are staples on their menu! The Thurman Café even boasts a full bar! What else do you need to hear? A meal at The Thurman Café is a must during your stay in Columbus!
