If you’ve been paying attention over the past few years, you may be aware that every once in a while, we do something truly spectacular with our classic Smashburger.
Today is one of those days.
In introducing the “Bruyère Burger”, (in honour of our favourite cheesy Frenchman, who are going for their last high school golds this afternoon? ). We take our classic smash patties, our freshly baked milk bun, and we layer on tangy Dijon mustard, ooey gooey, Gruyère cheese, and caramelized mushrooms and onions for a tasty explosion that will have you bellowing, “Bonjour!”. Or something like that….

It’s an absolutely STUNNING Wednesday, take a little drive.
Try the milkshakes!!

Happy Wednesday!

Our soft serve ice cream is back swing! We use only 100% Ontario dairy ice cream and real fruit in our shakes, cones, and sundaes, for a difference you can taste. And all of our ice cream treats are nut free!
