The burgers were so good, and the onions rings, however, I Ordered a large and they were 11 pieces, in a LARGE order. $41 for 2 burgers and large onion rings that weren’t even full is a Little much

Came in with some buddies, was greeted with a smile by owner Baldeep and treated with amazing hospitality. The Canuck burgers one of my favourite but I will definitely come back in to try the others. Great fries too! Definitely worth visiting if you are in the commercial area!

Ive been here many times and this is my first review.. great burgers, loads of extra toppings to choose from. Pop and BEER. I had the bacon and cheese burger.. was definitely worth ordering. Patty was cooked perfectly! Nothing special about the fries.. however I at almost all of them. Space looks and feels like a burger shack. It will most likely be playing what ever game happens to be on. Staff was very friendly and the place was clean.. I’ll be going back for sure.

I’ve tried a few of their burgers from other locations. They are all delicious. I was in the neighbourhood at this location and needed a break from the hot sun. You can never go wrong with a $5 beer or hotdog.

This is my favorite Vera’s Burger Shack! Their burgers taste truly unique—definitely a cut above all their other locations. Each bite is packed with flavor, juicy, and cooked to perfection. The quality of ingredients is noticeable, from the fresh buns to the perfectly seasoned patties. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. The only downside is that the place could be a bit cleaner, but honestly, the amazing taste of the food and the cheerful service more than make up for it. I’ll definitely be coming back!
