I spotted this place on Yelp and thought I would give it a try. Being in the shopping center I thought possibly was not going to be as genuine as this place is. It has so much character and is very well kept for the age. I ate the special, the French onion burger. I'm glad I did. It was very tasty and lived right up to its name. The meat was fresh. The au jus was a type of onion soup which made the burger everything that it should be. I enjoyed this very much and if I am back in the Toledo area I would definitely come back and try this again. read more

Dark inside, typical bar style tavern with Great Cheeseburgers! We also tried the fried mushrooms, definitely worth a try.

Great old bar and grill! We stopped in after a shopping trip and it was well worth it! We ordered the deep fried green beans as an appetizer! So good, dipped in to a spicy ranch dip. I would definitely order these any time I go back. My wife ordered the All American BLT Burger, a 1/2 pound burger with five slices of bacon, cheese, lettuce, tomato and mayo. Huge and she chose the hand cut fries over the kettle chips. I ordered a half Lenny (the full Lenny is two sandwiches), it's a bagel with fried salami, corned beef, Swiss cheese and cream cheese. Definitely a great sandwich! Great flavor! Our waitress was great, very attentive and professional. read more

We've been here a handful of times and the food never disappoints. I'm not usually a creature of habit, but here, I am. I always get the house wrap with grilled chicken, and fries instead of chips. It's hit or miss on whether it's busy or not. Our most recent visit was on a Friday night and it was packed! The only seats open were at the bar. One waitress was flustered and was cussing, while the other was just as busy but composed. Our service was fine though so no complaints on that - just thought it would be helpful to make note of. We got mozzarella sticks to start. They were good but the marinara was lacking. Flavor...salt...seasoning...something. They were still good. read more

We've been coming here for years. It's a great place to go and have a few drinks, some decent food, and some laughs. The staff is as cool as it gets. Great neighborhood spot. Stop in! read more

Nice local bar with great burgers. Personable staff and very low key. Fries are not my favorite here but everything else is very good. read more

My son and I did a road trip to find a good burger. Berger's Olde Tyme did not disappoint. Great burger, great fries and good beer. Jess at the bar was a super star. Super friendly and took care of the entire front end. Cool interior with an old school bar vibe. I intend to come back. Thank you. read more

Great food! Friendly service! Atmosphere is perfect for when you don't wanna be seen in daylight. Craving their white chicken Chilli! Came here for dinner the day I got married in 2018. Been a favorite ever since! read more

I don't know why I haven't written about this place before; maybe because side it's on my opposite side of town. Easy to find but somehow still hidden across from Miracle Mile. This local tavern has a great selection of cold domestic brews and beverages. They offer your normal fried bar apps always hot and satisfying. But the burger is the star! Every burger is generous and cooked to perfection; great grilled crust on the outside with a tender seasoned inside. Every one I've tried is great but I'm partial to the All American BLT, 1/2 pound cheeseburger topped with all the BLT fixings; including 5 perfectly cooked strips of crunchy bacon. I dare you to finish. They also offer a 3/4 pound burger. The fries are hand cut and crispy and the onion rings melt in your mouth. In general, I love this place! read more

Absolutely amazing All American BLT burger is so tasty!! Five strips of bacon, and lots of cheese!!

Everything was GREAT! Burgers, fries, onion rings, fried pickles, and pretzel bites! We will definitely be back. read more

Berger's Olde Tyme - 1/2 pound burger with bacon & fries/the Hot Tamale burger with onion rings - Bars Near Me - Toledo, Ohio

Ok, so far. 2 bartenders, that are also working as waitresses. They are doing what the can! Deep fried pickle spears - no. Not spears, more like pickle fries, but almost black fried. So, pass. Red, white and Bleu burger was great! So we're chips Added some black jack sauce on side, and WOW! Would definitely recommend for a burger and drinks. Appetizer? Not so much. Was ignored for quite some time, after served by staff. Not a big deal breaker, but definitely more attention to current customers, rather than new ones, would be appreciated. Would have stayed longer and ordered more drinks - but no service after food dropped off..... read more

Tried this place for the first time tonight. Had heard from friends that the burgers were really good. Totally not disappointed other than I ran out of delicious beef on a bun!!! Burgers were delicious and fish was a win as well. Will definitely be back even if they no longer carry potato skins on the menu. Portions were great and family is all full. read more

Food was good, service was great. The only thing I found odd is a woman came up to our table, asking for tips for the bartender. We're at a table, not even drinking alcohol. ..I'll tip my waitress, maybe even kitchen staff who made our food. .. but the bar patrons should be tipping the bartender. read more

Heard about this place from my mother and she said something about it the other day so I decided to stop. I had Great service and the girl was on top of everything. My food didn't take long at all. I have the all-American burger with a side of kettle chips and it was great I would definitely recommend this place. I'm not a drinker so I left out of here spending under $15. Totally worth it read more

I was on my way back to Cincinnati and stopped at this place recommended. MANNNNNNN!!!!! If you're a burger person then this is definitely a place for you. I got the Phil's Burger to go but I wish I had of stayed there to eat. This burger was not made to eat and drive. It was big and juicy. Definitely would've been a sloppy meal without a fork. (Yes, you'll need a fork or lots of napkins!) It's a smaller place with a laid back crowd. I'll definitely be back if I'm ever in Toledo again. read more

Berger's Olde Tyme - Phil's Burger - Bars Near Me - Toledo, Ohio

Took a friend out today and we were looking for a burger place that also had a bar. Friends recommended Berger's so off we went! We started with cocktails...a Long Island iced tea and a whiskey sour, both of which were excellent. Lunch was the black jack burger and fries and the Big Phil Burger with onion rings. Very simple issues: fries were over cooked, onion rings were a bit greasy and the hamburger buns could have been way better quality. The good: the service was great, I loved the smallness and the ambience of the place and the menu did not offer 1000 choices. I'll definitely go back, but I hope they up their game a bit! read more

what are their hours??? It seems to change. Although good neighborhood place never know when open. Menu has not changed in 10 years or so . Chili is good as is salads and club and chips. read more

At one time this place was glorified used to be one of the best burger places in Toledo Ohio. I know what it's like to get bad service and this place is king of that all. You can treat me like shit all you want! But the worst thing to do is treat my family like that. Me and my brother were looking for music one day. We came to Berger's thinking one day we'd get a Big Phil. For one we waited 5 minutes they weren't busy at all and the waitresses didn't want to to seat us so we left. That first time. The Second time again no one seated us so we decided let's get us a seat. And a family in through the door from another race. And the waitress welcomed them in open arms and seated them even got them their drinks she went right passed us. So that was it me and my brother left again. So my father told me that him and my oldest brother went there they ignored them so they left just like we did. My dad goes in there now remember my dad has been coming to this burger joint for more than 20 years and they treat a loyal customer who has been bringing a lot of business to.. that's not right! So my dad and his worker left and said I won't ever come back here again! So me and my other brothers made the same decision. I left this same review on their Facebook page and this is how petty the management is they reported or edited the review I made and blocked me from their Facebook page. Why? Because your establishment sucks! I'm gonna tell everyone I know never to come here. You got Doc Watson's Firepit Grille, Bunker bar and Pete's Garage all of those have best burgs in the area!! read more

It's a dive bar. The menu is limited. The atmosphere is what you would expect from a dive. The food was fast, greasy, and delicious. Do not go in with high expectations, but the price is right and if you're looking for a quick artery-clogging, look no further. read more

Friendly neighborhood bar. Our waitress was on top of everything and the burgers were great. Fries were piping hot!

This place has been around for a long time. And for good reason. It's a small bar with a few tables. The staff is friendly and the service is great. When I want a burger, this is the place I go. The Black Jack burger is awesome. The drinks are great too. Never been disappointed here. read more

This place has been featured on tv recently, which I assume is going to increase how busy it is at times. But it is well worth it, one of the best burgers you will ever have. A real hole in the wall, dimly lit type of place, which for me only adds to the allure. read more

Great greasy bar food. The 'hole in the wall' you need to stop in at if you're looking to binge eat!

Have to love this place, friendly staff. Not to expensive and friendly neighborhood bar.

Love this place. ..great bar food. The ladies behind the bar are aways friendly. The burger s are my favorite. Can be crowned at times.

If you're looking for greasy bar food, you've found it! And truly, if that's what you want this place is great. The burgers are huge and the side orders are enough for a whole table to share! Sometimes it seems a bit excessive, I would recommend saving half to take home! read more

By far Bergers has the BEST burger in Toledo! No contest! I have been here tons of times and have yet to leave disappointed. It's a smaller place, but the service and food make up for the lack of size. If you haven't tried a Bergers burger, YOU HAVENT LIVED! read more

One of my favorite places to get a burger or club sandwich no complaints about the food. The staff is nice and prices aren't bad at all. Overall a great little neighborhood bar. read more

Bergers has gone down hill the last few years. I have been coming here for over 25 years. I played softball with a Berger family member. The big phil is dry and not the same. When I complained the owner/manager could care less. I almost had to beg her just to replace my order. Today I called before I even left my house for a takeout order because I knew they were probably busy at this time. I was asked to hold but continued to drive there thinking it wouldn't be long. I arrived at Bergers about 15 minutes later. While still on hold. I went in and spoke to someone calling themselves Rachel. I let her listen to my phone. She never apologized but said she was busy. It's 18 minutes later now on hold. She said why are you here. I said because I thought if I called early my food would be almost ready. I asked for her name and for a manager. Manager not here. She offered me manager name and owner name. Now remember I have already dealt with owner previously. She said what do you want. Meaning what do I want to order not what can I do to fix this. I said what can you do for me. She said nothing. I figured so I took the names she wrote down and headed out. I was stopped by a male who said he worked there but was at the bar drinking. I said well shame on you and as I walked out the door a woman? Said shame on me. I will never return to Bergers again. Food has gone down hill. Service is terrible and management doesn't seem to care. What a shame this great family business has gone to hell. read more

Awesome hamburger! The hand cut french fries are delicious. Chicken chunks are a favorite of mine and their ranch is so good!! I think it might be homemade. The chili is also good. Get to know the bartenders and they'll be pouring your favorite beer when you walk in the door! Wish they would open a restaurant in the south end so I could go more often! ! read more

This little known bar in west Toledo is one of my favorite places to grab a quick burger any day of the week. They have a good selection of burgers and sandwiches. They were voted best burger by the Toledo City Paper and I would have to agree. The only set back to this place is the very small dinning area. Do not take a large group of people here, 4 is what I would say should be the max. If you are looking for a good burger and good prices check this place out!!! read more

Great food, nice staff, and a good atmosphere. Can be crowded at different times of the day, but definitely worth a visit!

I have always liked this place, but tonight (St Patrick's day) we went there for the Jiggs dinner. Not only was it delicious, but the portion was huge! Bringing home a doggy bag and am really satisfied! read more

We have been to Bergers quite a few times, and it was okay, but this last time it was awful. I had a baked potato with chili. It was really hard, so the waitress took it away. Not more than a minute later she brought it back with some more cheese on, still as hard as it was before she took it. I could'nt be bothered to moan about it again so just did'nt eat it. She asked if I wanted a box...erm no if I wanted to cook my own food I would have stayed at home. My husband ordered A patty melt with onion rings and she came back with a bacon mushroom burger and fries. I can't see us going back anytime soon. read more

After seeing it on tv decided to go and try out a burger. Burgers were ok they were dry, cooked well done. Kettle chips come with the burgers, you can get fries for a $2.99 upgrade which I thought was a little pricey as the burgers were $9.99. Place is small but staff is very friendly. read more

One of the top five star places in Toledo this neighbor bar Bergers. Everything made fresh to order all pure ingredients angus beef. For best results try the big phil burger probably one of the biggest burgers in town easily the best burger pound for pound. Freshly cut fries by far the best fries offered in a Toledo establishment. With a vintage classic theme inside surrounded by an array of Flat screens. Great service fresh fountain drinks. You won't leave this place hungry you will be very satisfied I know I was once I put my mouth around that burger fresh melted Wisconsin cheese the fresh mushroom that melted in your mouth the generous amount of Canadian bacon. A large menu different variations of burgers and drinks makes Bergers the best burger restaurant in town!!! read more
