When you’re craving a big, beefy, behemoth burger, where do you go? While there are lots of great burger joints in the Buckeye State, none quite compares to Zip’s Cafe. This tiny-but-mighty cafe has been serving up some of the best burgers in Ohio for nearly a century, and the burgers here are nothing short of legendary.

There's nothing quite as soul-satisfying as a burger and fries. It's a classic, All-American meal you can find at pretty much any restaurant across the country.

Zip's has fresh meat delivered daily from Avril-Bleh Meat Market & Deli that's hand-formed and flame broiled, served on toasted honey-egg buns from locally owned Klosterman Bakery. The result? A burger that's big, beefy, and legendary in its own right.
