excell Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 If you're like me, when you go to Thurman's you get a burger. That's what they're known for, after all, and their burgers are fucking awesome. Today I tried something different. I had their Texas Coney with cheese. All I can say is, do it. It's fucking awesome. Now, it's no hamburger. But you won't be disappointed. Try something new. This has been a public service announcement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clifford Automotive Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Great place to eat a burger. Took the kids there. One ordered a hotdog (bigger then her face) she ate 5 bites of it. Looks like an adults 2 bites. She was done. Ordered a burger for the other. He ate about 1/3 of it. I finished mine. Amy ate almost all of hers. Great Place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akula Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 I watched a guy eat two loaded burgers there. It made me sick to watch it. Try the cheese-steak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excell Posted March 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 I watched a guy eat two loaded burgers there. It made me sick to watch it. Try the cheese-steak. They have a new burger special that is two 1/3 patties, several slices of cheese, ham, bacon, and all of the trimmings. A dude who was there ordered one and I about got sick looking at it! I will have to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirks5oh Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 the burgers are huge, no doubt. i'm not sure they use the best meat, but if you're looking for a huge bar burger, look no further Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragknee66 Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Reading this pisses me off! We tried to go there sunday again and there were 11 F**KING groups ahead of us! We left.. and that was the 2nd time weve gotten there and left. You either have to go VERY VERY early or AFTER 9pm. But +1 for the burgers.. And the bacond burger is just amazing. Deffinately the best f'ng hamburger in the entire city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sciongirl Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Never heard of the place. Expensive? Me either... but might have to try it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excell Posted March 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Never heard of the place. Expensive? Not bad, especially with what you get. Most burger and chip plates are about $8. My coney and chips plate was $7, which is the bargain of the century. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wnaplay1647545503 Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Grew up right down the street from this place but havent been inside since it was a bar or pizza place or something. It sounds like a good place to eat. I might have to check it out. It cant be that big inside is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excell Posted March 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Great thread. Get off the beaten path. Go somewhere with character and good eats! Thurman Ave in German Village. Glad people appreciate. Their food is really really good. They've been named to all sorts of "top 10" burger in the U.S.A. lists. Seriously, if you haven't been there, go. Everyone in Columbus should try them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cptn janks Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 its not too huge inside... they have maybe 6 booths that can each fit maybe 5 or 6 people at them, then like 6 or 7 tables of two, and maybe like 15 seats at the bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farkas Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 The guys at the shop didn't think my scrawny ass could put down a loaded thurman burger, but I did. Hell, I even ate all the chips that were included.. and a chocolate chip cookie for desert . I'm a whopping 5'10" 140ish lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
