The 7 Best Burgers In Columbus, How do these rankings work?

1. The Thurman Cafe

The Thurman Cafe is pretty famous for their burgers, especially The Thurmanator. This insanely huge dish is made up of a bun, mayo, lettuce, tomato, pickle, banana peppers, 12 ounce burger, bacon, cheddar, another 12 ounce burger, sautéed mushrooms & onions, ham, mozzarella & American cheese, bun, fries and a pickle spear.

2. The Grandview Cafe

The Grandview Cafe is the place to come for the burger of all burgers: dry aged beef, bourbon caramelised onion, smoked bacon, tomato jam, three cheese blend of fontina, white cheddar & gruyere on a soft pretzel roll.

It’s a droolworthy feast.

3. Bareburger 

Bareburger is a casual, eco-minded regional chain for organic burgers (from beef to bison) with a great selection of beer & wine. The burgers are so pretty you nearly don’t want to eat them. Nearly!

Add some crispy onion rings or sweet potato fries on the side for a real treat.

4. Flip Side Easton

Flip Side is a chef-driven burger, shake and craft beer concept by Shawn and Tiffany Monday and Michael Schwartz. While the burgers are insane, it is the fries that go with them that will truly blow your mind.

Salty, crispy, and downright delicious.

5. Harvest Bar + Kitchen 

Harvest Bar + Kitchen is best known for their pizza menu but they always have a juicy burger on the menu. Like us, they love a good burger and believe in keeping it there for a “little bit of variety”. Hopefully something this good stays on the menu forever…

6. Pat and Gracie’s

These smash-cooked burgers are served with two fresh (never frozen) 3-ounce USDA choice beef patties. With an extensive menu and build your own burger option, there’s something for everyone here!

7. Rockmill Tavern

Rockmill Tavern is a rustic spot with great local beers and food.

This burger is always a great go-to when you want something a little bit classier than a simple cheeseburger. The Tavern Burger comes with bacon jam, pickled onion, extra sharp Tillamook cheddar, ciabatta and dijonnaise.
