My wife wanted to try this place since it appeared on Triple D. Finally took her there a few weeks ago. Since then we've returned three times. She loves the Pork T but I would recommended the greasy double cheese burger. Old fashion with a great taste. read more

I grew up on BoBo's and I knew the owner. I have to say the past few years when I have been though town it's just not the same. But it will always be Bobo's just a bit different now. read more

A Topeka classic and a MUST go-to when in northeast Kansas. The food is amazing! Greasy goodness with fun staff and a cool environment. Guy Fieri even signed a lampshade! read more

Amazing drinks and amazing food and the service was great and would totally go back and there Chocolate Milkshakes are awesome and it deserves 5 stars!!! read more

We just had a "Bobo's Picnic" at the Kansas Rehabilitation Hospital -- with burgers, onion rings and apple pie to bring back good memories for the patient and fun new memories for our family. Thanks! read more

Great piece of Americana, the Spanish burger and onion rings are fantastic with their root beer

The most tender pork tenderloin sandwich that I can ever remember eating.

A classic drive-in burger joint. Car hops take your order if you don't sit inside. Great burgers and fries, and known for their fresh baked pies. A Topeka tradition. read more

As good as it gets. Don't miss it if you're in Topeka.

Just. Great. Burgers. Nothing fancy, no foo foo avacado bison crazy burgers, just bad ass greasy cheeseburgers. Best in the state.

How this place remains so busy eludes me. Chalk it up to nostalgia, I suppose. As I have no ties to the area, I'm probably a little more objective than the locals. If you like over-priced, grease-saturated, flavorless food served by apathetic teenagers, then this is your place. read more

I have been a happy customer since the '60s...but probably never again. My latest experience was horrible. Three of us waited for 20 minutes for our food to be delivered to our car. The food was lukewarm, the fries and rings tasted bad, the burger was blah and the rootbeer float tasted nothing like rootbeer. The only thing we finished was the melted cheese sandwich even though it had turned back into un-melted cheese. It was a very busy day with all parking spaces full, so I probably should not have stopped in the first place. But shouldn't they be prepared for a full "house" ? read more

A visit every time I go home down the road! Has not changed in my lifetime-the apple pie is the best!! read more

Very good and reasonable prices. Lots of options on the menu and the apple pie is delicious.

you know BOBOS used to be really good . now the last time we went there that red headed waitress was so rude to us as usual . It seems like every time we go there , there she is with that bad attitude. My wife used to be a waitress for years and she always had a smile on her face and was very courteous to her customers . Now this woman always acts like she is doing you a huge favor by waiting on you. Plus what ever happened to those wonderful onion rings Bobos used to make . Now you might as well go to the store and buy some frozen onion rings and cook them at home because they processed like Bobos now they suck. You need to change the way your employee treats people. That woman always has a scowl on her face .And it seems like she doesn't want to wait on you it makes it a really bad experience and then you have to pay for it . We probably wont be back until your restaurant changes some things . read more

Great place love the food always fresh and delicious... the onion rings are a must have...

Been eating at Bobo's for probably 15 years and the food tastes just as good as it was when I was a child. Their pie is to die for, and their hamburgers are excellent! This is a restaurant I always recommend to visitors of the Topeka area! read more

Drive in, good food. It takes awhile to get your food but it's worth the wait. My favorite is pork tenderloin w EXTRA mayo! Try the apple pie. read more

Outstanding delicious food!!! Good service with all the small town drive-in diner feel and look. I would absolutely recommend stopping in for a bite to eat any day. read more

I went there with my friend and when she had to go to the bathroom I went with her the bathroom is in the. Basement! Now there isn't anything wrong with that other than the fact that it's purely Disgusting down there the stairs made me feel like they could collapse at any second all pipes were exposed and there was a hole in the flooring and they keep there food down there it is for sure not sanitary at all the bathroom itself had a toilet a sink a trash can and a huge pipe going from the ceiling to the floor which the floor was rather unpleasant everything was so flimsy I wasn't sure if the bathroom could take flushing the toilet I have NO idea how they get three inspections if they even have any !!!!! read more

The steak burgers are very delicious. The atmosphere is what you would expect for an old diner.

Their milkshakes get 5 stars in my book, and thats what I usually order. Rest of the food get 3-4 stars. A tiny cramped dining room, but its more fun that sitting in your car to eat the food. Better than most of the places on Wanamaker, etc including Sonic and the dreadful, dreadful Spangles. read more

Greasy fast food. I'm not sure what else to write, because if you like a greasy burger this would rank somewhat high, but it has a Plain Jane menu and among the general assortment of restaurants found in the United States, it doesn't rank pretty high. I guess if you're interested in the historical aspect of this restaurant, it may merit a higher rating. read more

I lived in Topeka for 30 years, and occasionally we treated ourselves to Bobo's Hamburgers. There was something really delicious about the Velveeta type cheese and the minced onions that filled the hamburgers. I recently returned to Topeka to meet with some friends. Bobo's was suggested andwe all jumped at the chance to revisit those childhood tastes....but, unfortunately, it wasn't the same. It seems something has changed since the good old days of Bobo's Hamburgers. I know it changed hands a few years ago. But, the burgers were very boring and quite small. I ordered the biggest one on the menu because I was so hungry thinking about this place, and it didn't seem any larger than a Big Mac style sandwich. It was not seasoned all that well, and the beef was over cooked and crumbling. The onion rings were very average. They were soaked in grease, and the portions weren't overwhelming there either. The pie looked very average, so I passed. It looked like a Mrs. Smith pie out of a box, not the HEAPING slice of home made pie that my grandmother used to order so many years ago. I don't think I will go back, the ticket was pretty pricey, and the food is not what it used to be. I like the burgers at Terry's Bar and Grill so much better. read more

just what I was looking for, easy food to get back on the road, classic 50's burger, with all the stuff I like on it, next time will get a double ... and the homemade root beer was perfection. read more

I'm giving this a four based solely on the onion rings otherwise it might just be a high three. The cheeseburger I had was good, but not great. It is definitely a place I will go back to, but I don't think Bobo's is the best burger in town. It is a good little drive in experience and much better than any chain, but perhaps a little pricy for what you actually get. read more

ok, I just moved to Topeka from the Seattle Area... I heard about how fantastic Bobo's was. So I had to try it (to be fair it was the Bobo's near the mall)... I wasn't impressed... Small burgers, the Tomato was far from ripe or fresh... Mediocre at best. for the price I would rather just go to sonic... read more

Worst place I ever attempted to eat. We went there based on recommendation from friends and it was horrendous. Our burgers were small, cold and burnt. Our onion rings were sopping in grease and also cold and the $4 salad I ordered was literally a small bowl of shredded lettuce with a single round slice of tomato that was 2 days past its prime on top. Needless to say we sent everything back and went somewhere else having learned a lesson. I'm not sure where they got the reputation high enough to have the Food Network stop by but I'm thinking their next visit will be from Dirty Jobs. Yuck. read more

Topeka tradition. You are paying for the tradition. A bit overrated. There are other hometown burger joints that are better. Try it for yourself and make your own decision. Most Topekans try it for the tradition, and Bobo's has a loyal customer base. I think they are mostly older people that grew up with it, though. read more

This restaurant is hardly worth visiting...the food is over priced for the poor quality of the items on the menu. Half of the staff working there are old and snotty. The only decent things they have on their menu are fries, rings and drinks. If your looking for quality you'd find more at a local burger king then at this place. read more

nice portions not as overwhelming as it looks so you can try multiple items. we took home a whole apple pie. glad we did, killer. sat inside get there early for lunch if u want a seat. lovely wait staff. read more

Hippie dippie chic and I made the drive from Kansas City yesterday to visit BoBos. It is nothing too fancy, basic smash burgers tasty but simple. Was told the onion rings were made fresh daily and quite frankly it showed. They were not the perfect kind of onion rings you see other places. They were in a word, awesome. Wifey had the tenderloin which she gave me a bite of and it was very good. Her fries were hot and also good. I had the double steak burger and for a smash burger it was fine. Veggies were good bun was not soggy. In Kansas City there are many smash burgers around like Town Topic, Hayes and others...what made the drive worth while, well aside from the onion rings was the APPLE PIE. Wholly guacamole was it good. There was a little old lady who comes in frequently, I guess, and by the time she sat down she had a slice of pie, cup of coffee and a bowl of soft serve ice cream. Then she was just talking to everyone in the room on the virtues of the pie. Well I took her up on it and we shared a slice, the wifey and I, and it was FREAKIN' fantastic. Next time take the clue from the little old lady and have the ice cream in a bowl. read more

I think the food, atmosphere and appeal of Bobo's has waned a bit over the years. The last time I was there everything I had was greasy - and don't get me wrong, I know this is a classic diner, so I expect some grease, but this was borderline inedible and definitely not appetizing. That said, their malts remain decent. It's still a Topeka landmark and it's always busy! read more

Amazing experience! This was my first visit even though I have heard of Bobo's forever! We had a cheeseburger onion rings cherry pie and satin freeze and everything was delicious! Can't wait to come back!! read more

Living in Kansas City, I hadn't been here in years. A friend & I have been on a quest to find the best burger in KC. I convinced him to take our quest on the road. We've had great $9-$15 burgers. But BoBo's $2.99 double cheeseburger put them to shame. Great value. Great burgers read more

Went back after staying away for over a year because I was always disappointed with my burger. So glad I went back on Friday. The double cheeseburger was back! And I'll be going back again more often now. read more

Great food, and super cheap prices. Old style atmosphere. Super friendly staff. Delicious!

the Triple Burger is really good here. The cheese is perfectly melted and really like the milk shake too. It brings all the boys to the yard!!! read more

Good burger but I found the onion rings inedible. Not worth going out of your way.

Overpriced crap food, people love it because its old, but the food is terrible and small portions n paying too much, I live next door and wont go! read more
