I don't care if this place is a chain...like an equivalent to the multiple Carl's Jr. spots we have here in California, but I really liked this place. I liked the fact that you can choose what you want in your burger and they're displayed behind the glass counter for you to point to what looks good.
Their poutine was good for me too. I guess the gravy might have been on the salty side, but overall...I could have eaten 3 orders of it.
...the only way to get here is probably by car or some kind of transportation, because it would be a pretty far walk for a tourist to walk the distance to this place since it's a couple of miles away from the Falls. -

It is so sad that a Quebecer in exile to the States could only find a decent poutine at Harvey's during his visit to Ontario. I tried 4, and they were all absolutely miserable except for Harvey's.
The right cheddar cheese curds (they store them in portion-sized plastic bags) melted over a run of the mill power-based sauce. Don't expect anything amazing, but Harvey's is the closest thing to what you've have at home.
Of course, don't forget to try their burgers which are some of the best chain burgers you can get in Canada (nowhere close to Five-Guys or In-n-Out, but very good). Give them a try without hesitation :)Listed in: Best Poutines.

We wanted to try a local fast food chain while there and since there were two 5 star reviews for Harvey's we thought it was a no brainer. We'd wanted to try poutine (fries, cheese curds, brown gravy...Mmm, cholesterol!) so the hubs got the Canadian burger with poutine and I got the same but with fries and we both got apple pies since we were thrilled to see they were fried...the way God intended. It was cool they dressed the burgers in front of you and it seemed much more fresh that way.
The poutine was awesome, heart attack inducing goodness. The fries were decent. I noticed the beef tasted much different than the States. I couldn't put my finger on it at first and then I said "this tastes like salsbury steak" and the hubby said yeah it kind of did. I dipped it in the gravy and it definitely tasted like a Hungry Man TV dinner on a bun. The hubby did the same and agreed it was spot on Salsbury steak. Not quite the burger I was craving but a decent change of pace. The apple pie was awesome though a little heavy handed on filling over apple. Would we go back? I think we both said not likely but it's not that it was bad, just not our cup of tea. It was also nice to see so many people eating in instead of going through the drive thru. -

It's tough to write a review on fast food chains, because, well, they're usually so similar everywhere you go.
Not living in Canada, I had never been to a Harvey's before, but the burgers are fantastic, but not cheap for fast food. I got the back bacon cheeseburger combo with poutine for $9.08.
I kept wishing we had these in the States! This location isn't a walkable distance from the Falls, but, who doesn't have a car when they visit Niagara Falls anyway? -

Okay, it's a hamburger joint..... I wanted to go here just because I liked the name and it had good Yelp. Service was very friendly. But I was suspicious about the humburger meat. But they onion rings are good. However this place managed a 5 star review is beyond my.
