Another Top 10! It's a bucket list place - everyone should try Booches!! Burgers are the Best. Dogs are pretty darn good also. Bartender was so cool.

This is my fifth day in Columbia and the second visit to this awesome burger shop. I'm pretty sure that I'm going to visit this shop many times in the future. Highly recommended.

Eric Zigler

Hands down, a Columbia classic. This place is one of the oldest establishments in the city . Want proof? Here's an advertisement for Booches in the 1909 edition of the MU Savitar. Nostalgia ensues.

Nick Kenny

Been here many times? For something different than the delicious burgers , try the pork loin . It's grilled, not deep fried, and goes well with mustard and grilled onions . Reuben is also a solid choice.

Natasha Chroszy

Have not had anything bad here! Amazing food! Burgers are small but they are amazing! I suggest getting two at one time!

Jenny Reinkemeyer

Excellent burgers . Hand pattied, reminds me of grandmas homemade burgers . Get 2, cause you’ll wish you did.

Francisco Graciano

After living in NYC for fifteen years and traveling all over the globe, still the best burgers I've ever had. Warning: I'm here on a Saturday night and there's a high concentration of douche bags.

Chris Stevens

Burgers and chili

Pretend like you belong there and everything will be ok. They don't take too kindly to outsiders. Lots of inside jokes around the bar . Oh, and get two burgers with everything.

Richard Harris

Best cheeseburgers in the mid west and the longneck Bud seem to taste better here as well .

Nick Kenny

Now with happy hour specials ! Check the chalkboard and order away.

Burgers good, service bad.

Bobby O

Ask the owners to tell u the stories about the 13 tables in the restaurant .

@jayelarex

Closed Sundays, see you in church .

Swift Swift

The service was crap, the burgers are over priced, and they definitely don't take kindly to outsiders, but still probably worth it if you're looking for a good burger and a taste of the local crowd .

Diane Vadnal

The best burgers in Columbia!
