Best burger experience for me is Harvey. Something about the burgers there that taste so good and the fact you can put whatever you want on your burger is a bonus.
What's yours?
Hi Lise!
Harvey's is my no.1. favorite too!
Then:
- ABC Country Restaurant burger
- White Spot, the legendary burger
- Knight and Day burger
Happy Canada Day!!
We will hit some BBQ birthday party at the park soon.
harvey's burgers are pretty good. too bad there arent very many harvey's around, unless you live in toronto.
i like the milestone burgers.
i have never tried the fatburger or vera's burgers but i heard those were pretty good.
Hands down, for me it's Kidd Valley.
Whenever I'm in Spokane or Seattle I have to hit Dick's Burgers. I grew up with them and they are the standard for all fast food burgers. And their fries are dank!
The best burger I've had was probably the first time I had free-range grass-fed beef at a fancy pants restaraunt here in Portland (Southpark-great bar menu). It was like tasting it for the first time. Couple that beef and the gourmet cheese, bun aioli, etc and I was in carnivore heaven.
IN-N-OUT burgers
Last September I ate a great bison burger in Vanscoy, SK
My tops whenever I feel like a burger:
Venus Burgers out in New West. - Big Mouth burger
Red Robins - RR BBQ Chicken burger
Vera's burger
"Can't beat Vera's meat.."
Best hamburger I've ever had, and I am an expert on the many ways to prepare ground cow.. They've got it hands down..
I can't tell really wants good and whats great. As long as it has fresh tomatoes, onions, lettuce and cheese I don't really mind. Don't like greasy burgers though.
The best I've had: My own. I make most of my food anyway. From quesadillas, burgers, fajitas, subs. I'm a pretty good cook for not knowing how to cook. Taught myself.
Yup, nothing beats home cooked meals. (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/11.gif)
That's why I love Vera's. They're the ONLY burger I've bought that tastes like something I would grill up at home. They're not cheap though, but ohmygod they're good.
Is Vera's burger on Denman? I think I saw the restaurant. If it's that good then I might try next time.
Vera's Burger Shack has 2 locations. The organic burger is worth the extra $. Best burger in Vancouver IMHO.

Yes there's a Vera's on Denman and one on Davie. And they also serve the cutest little beer pitchers ever.
Best burger I ever ate was a buffalo burger I had when we were in Deadwood. It took a buffalo to give beef that real BEEF flavour. If I didn't struggle to get through that burger, I'd have had a second. My taste buds wanted more, but my tummy disagreed. It was DElishious.
You'll like it there Lise. It's pretty pricey for a burger. We're talking $10 plus but all worth it.
I can't eat a whole one in one sitting. I'm always back gnawing on it a couple of hours later. Definitely worth the higher price. I never get fries.
I don't mean to change the subject, but I was in that area during the long weekend and found this nice little store that sold fruit platter fondue. It was so nice just sitting and relaxing having fondue with fresh fruit with a nice slush drink.
I walk by that every day. It looks like a nice spot to people watch and it's kinda ... pretty. I'd order the fondue just to look at it :)
It looks so pretty doesn't it? The best thing is eating it. I could only have so much until my throat feels dry.
I think that it makes a great little meeting place for a nice chat with a friend or someone special. It's different than the usual, "let's go for coffee....."
SC, does that mean that you work/live in the downtown area?
I live right at Comox and Denman and work on Howe. I normally walk to work unless I'm in heels, but even then, the bus stop is around the corner by Starbucks so I always traipse around there. I absolutely LOVE living in that area. I've lived in almost every area of Vancouver including West Van, North Van, Deep Cove, False Creek etc. But the West End is by far my favorite.
Having lived in Deep Cove, you must know the Raven. Dunno about their burgers, but thet've got a great selection of barley sandwiches.
It must be nice living so close to work. If I was single, I would totally live in downtown area.
It's great living close to work :)
And yes, I am very familiar with the barley sandwiches at the Raven, I used to go there on the occasional date when the mood struck. They actually do have nice side dishes to the barley sandwiches. Good cooks.
Someone mentioned In n' Out in California. Something about it? I was addicted.
Red Robin is pretty good. (Trying to think of a local place.....)
I mostly eat mexican food now, so I wouldn't know what a good burger is now anyway.
Sadly since most of St. Louis is super obese fat they'd say White Castle or Hardee's.
