A recent story from Reader’s Digest has rounded up the best burgers in each state, and Ohio’s top burger is available in the Arch City.

According to Reader’s Digest, Swenson’s Drive-In serves the best burgers in the Buckeye State.

“You’d be hard-pressed to find someone in Ohio who hasn’t tried a Galley Boy from Swensons Drive-In,” the story reads. “This double-patty burger is served on a buttery toasted bun with cheese and two secret sauces. Though the popular drive-in (with multiple locations across the state) has never shared what exactly those secret sauces are, they best resemble tartar sauce and barbecue sauce. The burger is finished off with a signature olive on a toothpick for a recognizable flair.”

Founded in Akron in 1934, Swenson’s opened central Ohio until 2018, when it opened in Dublin. Currently, it operates five locations in the Columbus area.
