Their burgers are great, the concept is executed well and it's affordable! I've been coming to Class Clown since they opened but I've never taken any pictures until now because I just devour my food.
I can say the Donald McRonald is great and I tried their fish sandwich the last time I was in. It was delicious and nicely sauced. The fries are also so hot and crispy with enough in one order for two people (we'd had a lot before I took the picture attached). I still need to try their chili fries with cheese, but I've heard good things.
They have a great selection of organic wines and the ice cream is awesome. We tried the malted chocolate and it was eaten quickly. A reso is usually recommended.
I'll definitely be back!

Decent value for money, nothing super special. Burgers taste good, fries I liked a lot. On a weekend day waiting time was about 5 hours. Would recommend but plan ahead!

I was really excited to try The Class Clown Burgers as it’s listed as halal on Google and had been on my mind for a while. We waited almost 2 hours to get in, so my expectations were high.
Unfortunately, I was left extremely disappointed. When I asked the server, I was told that while the beef patty itself is halal, it is cooked on the same grill as bacon. For those of us who follow a strict halal diet, this makes the meat non-halal due to cross-contamination. I politely asked if it could be cooked separately, but was told that wasn’t possible given the volume of orders.
It’s honestly frustrating to advertise halal patties if they’re prepared in a way that doesn’t meet halal standards. I ended up having to order the veggie burger after waiting two hours, which felt like a waste of time and money.
I hope the restaurant either clarifies their halal status properly or considers offering a separate cooking surface for customers who require it.

Great burgers! I ordered the Coney Island Cowboy and it tastes good, patties were well seasoned and it goes well with the vegetables in it. The Super Duper Fries was a hit, it was very filling as well. We also ordered their Pepper Strawberry Sundae which was surprisingly good. We went there just before the restaurant opened and there was already a long line up.

Great burgers and fries. Waiting time is what made me rate it 4stars. 1st 2 times we went line ups were crazy, 3rd time's the charm and we got seating finally. Waited long also for the food to be served, at least the food was great.

The burger taste and looked like a handmade burger. They also serve crinkle fries. Staff was extremely friendly. Only real downside is because the place is so small that there's usually a wait to get in. I dined by myself so I didn't have to wait and sat at the bar but I watched a lot of groups have to wait 10 to 15 minutes at least.
Its more that 4 hours wait. And the burger is not that good..

Soooo good! I rarely seek a hamburger while eating out, but this was absolutely delicious. The burgers were so delicious. We also loved the super (crinkle cut) fries with added jalapenos. All the staff were accommodating and very friendly. The nostalgic 70's basement bar vibe is perfection. I'm obsessed!

Best burger from a restaurant in a long time! I just wanted fries, but the burgers were there so why not? I got the Donald McRonald, the most basic one, the patty had crispy crust on it that was delicious, the bun was the ideal texture and firmness, and the fries were perfectly cooked. Staff was great and the place was fun. Going back for a sundae.
A newer Calgary staple!
