    Onion rings
    April E.

    Stopped at Bobo's upon recommendation from friends who have dined there. I pulled in to one of the spaces and waited for a carhop to come out and take my order. They were busy shuffling orders out to cars and I waited maybe three minutes. Explain that it was my first trip to Bobo's and ordered a double cheeseburger, onion rings and a Coke. The carhop said that she was surprised I wouldn't order a shake on my first trip. So I added a Oreo/caramel shake to my order. Glad she made that upsale because the shake was delicious, and my burger was juicy and wonderful. The double cheeseburger comes with lettuce, pickle, tomato and mayo. The lettuce was crisp and fresh which can make or break a burger. The onion rings were lightly battered and delicious. Now, Bobo's will be a must-stop when traveling through Topeka!

    Bobo's is a cute local hamburger joint that has been serving Topeka for years. I really don't go there even though I drive by it daily. I decided to try it out since my mom was in the Hospital and I wanted to grab lunch nearby. It was delicious so now I add it to my list for hamburgers. I stopped in last night 5/21 with my lil doggy Hershel. They have a small quaint inside dining as well as a drive up/car-hop-they come out to take your order. I pulled into the Car Hop area and was greatly fairly quickly. I ordered a Cheeseburger and of course Onion Rings-theirs are delicious! I asked the car hop if they had a kids burger which I wanted to order for my dog. She said they did not but that they have Pup Cups, so I said we would take one snd then I saw a hotdog on the menu so I ordered a plain hotdog no bun for him as well. We waited maybe around 10 minutes for our food which was no big deal. I think for my meal a cheeseburger, onion rings and drink plus hotdog $ pup cup totaled around $17. The food was hot and fresh when I got home to eat it. I'm glad the car hop attendant told me about the pup cup because Hershel devoured it! Food/service/ is Two Thumbs Up! I'll get a pic of my food next time! I was so hungry I forgot

    Can you really add anything to 200+ reviews and a feature on DDD with Guy Fieri? No. Go. You'll love their burgers and homemade root beer floats. The team is smiling and friendly. And try the onion rings.

    We had an unexpected and unplanned tripped to Topeka today and after taking care of business needed a quick bite before heading back to KC. We could have hit the same ole same chain restaurant that we have here in town but I wanted to try something unique to Topeka! So, Bobo's it was! Every item we got felt like it was prepared fresh after we ordered it and highlights were the cheeseburger , hotdog, and tenderloin. You can't replace that worn in cooktop that has all that grilled in flavor. Everything else was good too, nothing unexpected. We also got their house-made root beer, this was good but didn't have any bite, definitely vanilla forward. The service was pretty quick and the server was nice! It was a pretty quiet time, around 2pm when we stopped in. So, nothing to crazy happening. If you are stopping through, definitely give the burger, hotdog, or tenderloin a try - hubs thought their onion rings were also worth a grab and definitely seemed breaded in house. Everything else was fine but you could also get elsewhere...anything from the grill is a shining star!

    Food, Service, Ambiance 5/5 Believe the hype. It's just plain good. I and my buddy ordered onion rings, fries, burgers, and pie. All good, flavorful and nothing was disappointing, but be sure to get a doble as the patties were thin. Overall, I will go again if I am in the area. Nothing much else needs to be said.

    If you are ever in Topeka, check out Bobo's Drive In for some local food. This tiny little restaurant has been around forever and has the sweetest lady that owns the place (Not Bobo, but I think she said 3rd owner.) My waitress who I think was the owner's daughter was super sweet and friendly too. The food is so good and they even make their own root beer! They talked me into a double cheeseburger with Spanish sauce and I couldn't eat it quick enough...

    Went to Bobo's Drive In as it is a DDD spot. It was ok. I had a cheeseburger, fries and the apple pie.

    The food here is amazing! The burgers are the star of the show! Service was friendly and fast, absolutely a must if you're in the area! Driving through to Tennessee, and glad we found this hidden gem!

    Too much hype for this joint. Terrible taste of the steakburger-ugh. The wait was pretty long for a lunch time rush.

    Went to The Blind Tiger yesterday it was a birthday celebration the atmosphere was excellent you…read morehave to love this building it's so spacious and there's so many places to sit with great atmosphere bathrooms are excellent the staff was superb I like the way that the waiter came to us and explained it that several things that they were out of due to the fact that they were so busy on St Patrick's Day on weekend the waiter was also very patient. The food was excellent I thought you had a great flavor to it especially the chicken wings they were delicious the jalapeno poppers were delicious . All together all the food was served with a great presentation. Happy Birthday 3/14/2026 I would like to also say thank you for the invite I truly had a great time and it was awesome visiting with everyone stay safe and have a great year see you next year.

    Nine years ago, I gave this place 5 stars. Today, they get two…read more Ordered the Cajun Chicken pasta. The pasta itself was good and so was the bread that comes with it. The chicken however was like rubber. I ate half a small piece and put the rest to the side. My husband had the Pulled Pork platter which is normally good. The meat was really dry. I ate all the pasta and told our server about the chicken being like rubber and she stated that she's mentioned that exact thing to the cooks but that maybe if a customer complains they would possibly listen. What made me a little annoyed though was that I ate none of the chicken yet they didn't at least bump off a few bucks off my meal. The service was fine but I feel like over the years this has become my last choice versus my first choice.
