Posts towards the end of last thread:

Red Robin is top 3 for me, fantastic restaurant.

They're pretty decent, but they need to upgrade the buns. And they've raised prices a lot the last 5 years so they're not great for the $.

Apparently there is a food truck that does 2.85 burgers and 3.50 cheeseburgers...some say it's the best in town.

Do tell

yeah heard about that... teriyaki sauce

I'm guessing this is the one you're talking about?: http://www.yelp.ca/biz/hamburger-2-85-vancouver

I'll have to give it a try if I'm nearby.

Yup and they are good.

Does anybody remember Rodeo Drive-in? I used to go there when I'd play hockey or baseball in Surrey. They were my favorite burgers and milkshakes.

Anyone tried the Mikeburger from Mr. Mike's? They just opened a location up here in Kitimat, and that is one tasty burger:

It's not bad, usually get in on half price Thursdays. I find it pretty greasy though, which can be good or bad.

Used to have them years ago. Served on crusty garlic bread if I recall. Yummy.

Mr mikes isn't a good restaurant, would rather have red robin for sure.

Very interested to try this food truck, hopefully it's still running when I'm back in Canada.

Wow those burgers Wetcoaster posted look delicious, and those prices

 

[tc 23]

Will definitely have to try one of those 2.85 burgers this weekend!

 

[Win One Before I Die]

2.85 for a burger and it looks like that??? wow. just got so hungry for burgers...

I think it's pretty awesome that my biggest contribution to HFboards has been a thread about the best burger.

Still voting Five Guys though. Don't care that it's a chain, that is a damn good burger.

Every time I see this thread I think "Bob's Burgers," which is a solid show.

That is my contribution to this thread.

 

[Karl Hungus]

Hemingway's burger recipe sounds pretty good.

That's right by my house. Used to love eating at the picnic tables outside in the summer. Unfortunately it's a TD Bank now. That whole area is almost unrecognizable.
The cool thing is the bank has a big picture of the Rodeo Drive In behind the front desk.

I was looking at the original with all the old information thinking DAMN we need a new one of these.. a week later my wishes have come true


Id also like to say whoever nominated whitespot as best burgers really needs to get out more often..

Whit spot has fantastic burgers, may not be the best, but I'd have them in my top 10.

you could fit any burger joint in a top 10 considering its drops off at a certain point and ranking after that drop off is negligible...

Went to the $2.85 thing for lunch today. Says they open at 11:30 but we got there at 12:30 and it hadnt' opened yet; there was a massive line and it opened probably 5-10 minutes later. It was good for sure and you can't beat the price, but yeah. Pretty popular right now. I'm lucky to work in a place where nobody cares that I took 90 minutes for lunch...

 

[CanucksSayEh]

Fur Burgers..

 

[BlackAces]

I tried the vendor once. I thought it was okay but I feeling sick that day so I'll have to try again. I'm going to go with a controversial pick and say warehouse has my favourite burgers. They aren't very good, but something about their atmosphere makes a frozen patty with kraft cheese slices on a burnt bun served with fries for 4.95 just seems right.

Best schedule review, worst actual burger review.

Well, thanks to this thread, I'll probably buy one...took a pass earlier this week but will probably try it when the line-up dies down a bit.

Ha. I don't know what to say really. It's a burger. It tastes good, burger like. It had too much lettuce for my preference but the sauce is good. Definitely worth the price but maybe not worth the wait.

Anyone else tried the Mogu street truck, their chicken teriyaki burger? It is delicious...and their chicken karaage is the best, as advertised.
