Herb & Thelma's Tavern

Outstanding burgers! One of the best I have ever had. Simple yet packed with flavor. Comes with pickle and onion. Don't ask for anything else on it! Great just like that.

Nothing beats a greasy spoon old time restaurant I will definitely be going back

An Extremely friendly and quaint tavern that serves very nice beer such as weihenstephaner hefeweissbier on tap. I ordered the fried bologna sandwich, cheeseburger, sausage. Next time I’ll order the chili. I had a chance to speak to nearly every patron who wished me well. I plan on stopping back when I return next year. I would recommend. Cash only but there’s an ATM.

Best burger in town and the friendliest bunch of locals you can hope to meet. I wandered in for the first time today after moving to the area last month and you’d think I’d lived here for decades. The patrons treated me like family and me and the bartender/grill cook talked about old guitars. Can’t recommend this place enough. The only reason I gave them 5 stars is because 6 isn’t an option. Burgers are great and the spicy Italian with peppers and onions was amazing!

Herb and Thelma’s Tavern is the kind of place that doesn’t try too hard—and doesn’t have to. I went for the double cheeseburger, loaded with pickles and onions just the way they serve it, and let me tell you: it did not disappoint. No frills, no gimmicks—just a seriously good burger. The patties were thick, the beef was fresh, and the flavor spoke for itself. It’s the kind of meal that takes you back, like a bite out of the good old days. This cozy little joint feels like a time capsule, and if you’re craving an old-school burger done right, this is your spot. Stop in for a bite—you’ll leave full and smiling.

100 year old neighborhood bar and burger joint. Lots of old memorabilia. We got to sit with the original owner’s family that told us the history of this little gem. We had a burger cooked on grandpa’s original grill. It was really good down to the steamed bun.

Had a fantastic lunch at Herb & Thelma's Tavern! The burger was simple—cheese, onion, and pickle only—but absolutely perfect. Cooked just right with an ideal meat-to-bun ratio, and the table-side ketchup and mustard were a nice touch. Paired with a side of Grippos chips, it made for a delicious meal, all for under 10. Great value and quality! Just a heads-up, it's a cash-only spot. Highly recommend for a no-frills, amazing burger experience!

If you're into no-frills, all-flavor type of places, this spot hits the mark. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a cozy, old-school bar atmosphere — the kind where the ceiling tiles have seen a few stories, the walls are filled with memorabilia, and locals gather like it's their second home. It’s the kind of joint where the bartender knows names, and the cook’s working the grill just a few feet away from the bar, flipping burgers within earshot of the regulars. The vibe is laid-back, unpretentious, and totally genuine. There are a couple of TVs for sports, some Christmas lights strung up for charm, and the smell of sizzling patties in the air. It's the kind of place that doesn't try to be anything fancy — and that’s exactly the point. As for the burger? A simple powerhouse. Soft, pillowy bun, melted cheese draped over a well-seared patty, and a couple of crisp pickles to cut through the richness. It’s not stacked a mile high or over-engineered — it’s straightforward, satisfying, and done right. Sometimes, that’s all you want. Pair it with a cold beer and you’re golden. Bottom line: This is a throwback burger bar that knows its strengths — atmosphere, simplicity, and solid food. If you're craving an authentic, no-BS burger in a place with character, this is your spot.
