I really don't believe I wolfed down the Banquet Burger in record speed.. good thing I am alone. ..sitting outside on the picnic table... hoping no one will see me.
The Banquet Burger ($4.55) has processed cheese and 2 crispy bacons. I don't eat bacons much.. (not because they don't taste good, but the fattening factor). The buns here are really toasted on the grill and give it a certain lightless and texture to it. Though the patty is the frozen type it was charchoal grilled to perfection not dried out at all... hmmmm 3 stars
All the older gents that worked here are so super nice! So eager to please and joking with me + 1 star
I just love burger joints that run by independents that has so much character and old world charms instead of those faceless franchise one with teens working there!Listed in: Cheap/Fast Date!, Burger List!, What to do when you in…

Elaine K. said there would be large BURLY men, but I didn't see none. What I saw was a few university students and some young punk which everyone that came here were men or soon-to-be men. The reason was that I didn't visit during lunch hour, but rather after work hours.
A Burger Joint amidst a busy Woodbine avenue where many Office/Manufacturing/Businesses/Highway 407 always cause a bit of road congestion. I guess that's a PRIME spot for a Burger place. The person at the helm answers my question as to what a Banquet Burger(Cheese, Bacon $9.30) is and I went for the combo(Fries, Fountain Drink). This owner is quite friendly and personable as he states this place existed 40 years ago.
As he put Patties(Frozen variety) on the grill, I looked over the Menu board where they have Souvlaki as well aside from Burger($3.50), Cheese Burger, Bacon Burger, Banquet Burger and combos of those selections. Asked if I wanted Poutine, I declined.
I chose to sit outside on the Picnic tables rather than the small 2-seaters indoors along the windows. The Burger was GOOD sized and a Bun that looks to be made just for this Burger. Sliced processed Cheese melted just slightly and the Burger Meat was A-OK.
As stated earlier, I could taste the frozen meat taste if you just try the Meat Patty on it's own but most people will eat the Burger as a whole and enjoy it. The Fries were nicely cooked as well, crispy outside fluffy inside.Listed in: Burger Me

Giant, incredibly delicious burgers. Giant, crispy onion rings.
Fries are so-so.
You can tell the place because it always has a semi parked on the side street, and a truck pulling a digger or other construction-type apparatus in the parking lot. The place is frequented by large burly men in safety vests and hard hats. Hard men who have spent their lives squinting into the sun and working their calloused hands to the bone. Men who know that a good burger doesn't come topped with an avocado salsa or a sharp camembert.
This place is a small takeaway with about five 2-seaters inside and a few picnic tables outside. Know what you want before lining up, the service is relatively quick and they like to keep the line moving. Unless you have a gigantic appetite, share the onion rings.
