I just stopped in for a couple of cheeseburgers and potatoes fries. I wish you could call and place an order for pick up so you don't have to wait after work... But if that's my issue, I'm doing good!!! I forgot pictures, burgers were great - my fussy mother ate the entire thing commenting on how great the bun was.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!
My husband and I just came for dinner and the food is phenomenal. I had chicken fingers and the Nashville poutine which was massive, and my husband ordered The Big Spicy combo with fry rings and everything was just done to perfection. There isn’t one thing I would change about our meals. The lady behind the counter was extremely pleasant and very knowledgeable and the restaurant itself has a great atmosphere and is super trendy. I would HIGHLY recommend trying this place out…but be sure to bring your appetite as I found the portions large. Can’t wait to come back again.

I’m not sure if I visited on an unusually bad day, but after reading so many glowing reviews, I was genuinely excited to try this place out. Unfortunately, my experience was disappointing from the moment I walked in.
The restaurant was visibly unclean—tables were dirty and clearly not cleaned properly, the garbage area was filthy, and the air was thick with the unpleasant smell of old oil. Despite only one staff member being present, I decided to give it a chance, hoping the food would redeem the atmosphere.
It didn’t. My burger was excessively greasy, and with the first bite, grease poured onto my plate, soaking the bun and making it nearly inedible. The brisket was tough and dry—more reminiscent of a leather belt than something you'd want to eat. The fries were equally disappointing, tasting like they’d been cooked in stale oil.
Overall, the experience was a complete letdown. The food, the atmosphere, and the cleanliness all fell far short of expectations. I truly hope this was an isolated incident, but based on what I saw and tasted, I won’t be returning.

Today I ordered a classic combo with a poutine the burger was ok . But the poutine was disgusting fries tasted nasty like they were cooked in old oil ended up throwing it out and tossed the burger cause I was upset with the nasty poutine.
I will not return

I wish I could rate it higher. Food left lots to be desired.

Just finished up lunch there and we had a wonderful experience. The woman working was absolutely on point with service and knowledge. We tried the brisket poutine and Nashville poutine. Both were pretty solid on price and flavor. We have tried a lot of sad, overpriced poutines it recent times, and happy to say these did not disappoint!

These burgers are AMAZING!
First time here, small place but best burger I’ve had in quite some time, better burger compared to the works or Kensington’s, if your looking for a great burger come here if your looking for traditional restaurant atmosphere, it’s more of chip truck diner
The fires were killer too!

I ordered the oh brisket burger and was very disappointed. The burger was dry and I had to search for the brisket. When I found the brisket I wasn't sure if it was dried up over cooked very thin bacon or brisket. It was like 2 or 3 similar to half pieces of bacon. Won't order that again and I would not recommend. Poutine was great as usual and the lady that served me was very nice. Also I paid for a combo wich included a drink, I don't like fountain pop so I upgraded for $1 a bottle of water and got home and I did not get my water. I was not going to walk back.

Burger was solid, poutine was a little lack luster. Not sure why they only staff the restaurant with only one employee at a time seems very unfair when a large order comes in. Otherwise good was good would go again.

Disappointed in the service. Both workers didn’t know if the brisket or bacon was halal. It seemed to take a long time for 1 burger, I was the only person in there. And I didn’t get the combo and paid $12.42 then I came outside and saw the sign for $11.99 classic combo , I was frustrating the worker didn’t mention it to me.

The search for Barrie’s best burger continues. The order consistently lacked flavor although everything seemed freshly made. Burger King tastes more flame broiled than here. Next.

My burger tasted like it was sitting out for hours, not flavourful and over cooked. Poutine was good, chicken strips were good. Fries had no flavor. For $50 just save your money go to Harvey's.

Was looking for a good thick juicy burger tonight and the double stacked burger with cheese absolutely did the job! So delicious with good quality cheese, and the fries were tasty as well. Service A+
