The Thurman Cafe
Columbus
Family owned since 1942, this German Village spot focuses on sandwiches and 12-ounce burgers that are worth the trip. If you're feeling adventurous, order The Thurmanator, a monster double burger inspired by athletes attending Arnold Schwarzenegger's annual fitness gathering in Columbus.
