Very good, Greek-style diner, HUGE portions.
Kids had the burger special with poutine, should have shared, but they both commented on the nice touches like chipotle mayo & poutine made with curds, not shredded cheese.
We had the pork souvlaki platter. HUGE and very good.
Staff at the counter were very nice, happy to serve.
Stopped here at the end of a 4 hour car ride from Northern Ontario & washrooms are nice, decor very nice and interesting. They also have a grassy area where our dog could do it's thing - a plus. -

I went to Shake Rabble & Roll to grab takeout for lunch today, & wasn't sure what to expect. I knew it was a 50's-style place, but that was about it. I walked in & saw the requisite retro artifacts & decor. The booths were cool-looking & the place had a definite 50's vibe going on.
The staff were friendly & prompt, & I ordered a Roll Burger Combo (no cheese or bacon), which came to $8.71 with taxes. I was intrigued by this particular burger as it's made of sausage meat (6oz). Yeah, I know, right? Who's ever heard of a sausage burger? Not a sausage split in half & served on a burger bun, but an actual patty made of sausage meat.
Their burgers are pressed very thin, which makes for a huge-looking patty with a shorter cooking time, but if you're not careful, can lead to dry burgers as well. Good news though, my burger was cooked perfectly & had lots of juice left in it. It was a very unique, very delicious burger that will have me coming back for sure. The sausage flavour was unmistakable, but not overpowering or off-putting.
The fries were hot & very good, & the portion was a good size. Not the best fries I've had at a burger joint, but well above passable.
It's too bad I had to grab my food & go, since it would've been nice to sit & take in all the cool 50's stuff, but it's no biggie since I'll definitely be back! -

Elvis Presley?! James Dean?
Bright pink, silver, gold, orange and those vinyl cushioned benches...
Shake, Rabble & Roll...
Rabble Burger ($4.79) has this really strange patty.. It is big but thin... the thinnest burger patty I ever ate. It is grilled to extreme crispness.. and dryness. A crispy burger?!
Toppings are little boring just the usual tomato, lettuce, pickles... but they do have Pulled Pork Sauce.......
There is a good selections of Kawartha ice cream... I think I will probably enjoy the ice cream more than the burger! -

Awesome! By far the best burgers and fries in Whitby and Oshawa! BIG portions, fresh cut fries, homemade onion rings. Homemade 'Rabble' burgers are fresh, never frozen. Fast, friendly service, great food and ice cream wrapped in a 50's style diner setting. Best kept secret in Durham!

OK, so first time we went here we chose not to come back. A year later, they've corrected their poor customer service - two lovely young ladies cooking and working the till. The food, if my son and I remember it was ok last time. This time, it was very good. We ordered a burger with cheese and bacon melted into the burger itself -- delicious -- and a pulled pork sandwich. "That was one big delicious jumbo burger," says my son. I was skeptical when I saw them boil the bag of pork, but they then put it on the grill and fried it up a bit...well, it was good but adding sauce while frying and not during the actual cooking process results in dry meat slathered in sauce. They offer a variety of burgers. They are also quite popular as an ice cream stop too. Free parking. 1950s diner. Biggest competition is down the road and further up in Whitby...I think these guys will be alright and should find a loyal following. PS - the fries are fresh cut and uber yummy.
