Herb & Thelma's Tavern

simply good food at rock bottom prices.  It's like 1970 hit this place and never left.  LOVE IT!  I'll be a regular.  

Oh and get the grilled onions.

the burger was good, i admit it.  nothing else about this experience is worthwhile.  service awful, place filthy, there was nothing good about this place.  the employee who recommended this lunch spot has not yet been asked to work again.

If you like old school, this is your place, and I don't mean fake 50's diner old school.
But in the way that this is a place that time forgot about, but the formula is still the same, good service, good basic American food(cooked right in front of you) and good prices(don't really think they have changed for decades).
I am sure there has been updates along the way, I actually heard that some time back in the day there was a mudslide that took of half the back of the house.  
Sure they allow smoking and it is not well lit up, but that was just how they rolled back in the day.

Chip is the owner and he took over the place from his parents, he is the only employee to my knowledge.
They have the basic burger and hotdogs which Chip makes right there in the corner kitchen.

Usually I go for a cheeseburger with a side hotdog or a bowl of homemade chilli.  
Again, Chip keeps the Burger simple with two add on options: pickles and onions.
Last time is was there the regulars "group pressured" me into getting a double cheeseburger, which I of course did...
I was also dared to try a Brian(I think that is what he called it), which is two cheese melts with a burger in the middle, maybe next time.

This place has so much going for it that you can't help loving it, I would even go as far as calling it a piece of NKY history.

There is one person that reviewed this place and suggested that they changed it up, this just means you don't get it!
This place works because it is simple and do not have an extensive menu or fancy beer selection.
But maybe you mistook it for a Max and Erna's...
Sometimes less, really is more...
