A&W and DQ really? The title is "Good Burger Joints" not "Crappiest Burger Joints".
For the cost of living in the lower mainland it sure does have limited quantity of quality of food compared to south of the 49th. I don't remember having a good burger in BC. Vera's is way overrated.

I dunno...it sounds like we'd better head to A&W before time runs out! :nod:
They said that it will run til the 3rd week of March. Some not all outlets have it so you will have to call your local location to see if they offer it.
Honestly, I don't mind A&W that much - no one beats their rings - but they are disgustingly overpriced, and you always smell like BO after eating there....
Oh god.
I went to red robin once and had a Bacon Cheeseburger.
The menu said "World's best". If that was the best of what the world had to offer
It so totally depends on what criteria defines YOUR best burger.
Evelyn's on W. Broadway southside between Arbutus and and Yew (around the corner to Bex) is a Chinese/Canadian type place but they have an almost perfect "Diner burger." Unfortunately, the patty's standard beef, not thick, and cooked through, the char's hit'n'miss, BUT the bun has the perfect amount of butter and is toasted evenly and well on the grill, with just the enough mayo and "sauce" plus a very good "cheese." Shredded lettuce and a slice of good tomato on the bottom (season dependent, too - mid-summer burgers are better). Cheap at less than $7 with a soup. Both the bacon and the mushroom variety has an awesome salt-gradient; the patty is healthy and clean and delicious (and fatty and loose without being cloying) and the above-patty has a dose of saltiness to counteract the bottom. Lately, the bacon has been a lot more crunchy-dissolvey and generally awesomer.
Unlike a lot of "premium" burgers, everything fits inside the bun, and the bun doesn't dissolve. No messy fingers but no chunks of non-meat-ed bread.

Wow, simple website much? What kind of prices are we talking about? Is it worth the drive from Vancouver?
Prices are very similar to five guys. Most expensive item on the menu is the super texx burger its $21.99. you get a two pound burger as well as a pound of fries plus if you eat it all in 30 mins it's free. The place just like it's website is nothing fancy just a hole in the wall.
