I suddenly had a crave for burgers, so I decided to take a detour. This burger place has been proudly serving the Oshawa crowd since 1976. They have 2 types of burger you can pick- original or home burger. I was told by a loyal customer who frequently comes here- my boyfriend, that the original patty was frozen and the home burger were fresh grounded AA beef patty, so of course I have to pick the latter one. These were our orders and our thoughts... Home Cheeseburger ($13.21) super juicy... if you didn't wrap your burger before you bite into it, your hands will be soaked in burger drips (don't say I didn't warn you) buns were toasted so it added a little crunch to your bite Mushroom Swiss Burger ($14.69) Also uses fresh beef patty, each bite was super juicy that you just want to keep biting! Mushrooms and onions were both pan-fried, so it added a hint of smokey-ness flavour. Personally, I thought the garlic dill aioli could use a little more garlic or dill... I didn't remember there's aioli until I looked at the menu again Fries and onions included in the combo. Perfect crunch and crisp thick cut fries! Big proportion for what you get and the onion rings were fluffy inside but still have a crunchy shell... almost like a French fry wrapped around a slice of onion Definitely don't mind coming back to try their milkshake in the summer to go along with our burgers! read more

Always excellent food and wonderful customer service!! A great experience with consistent quality!!

Mr. Burger. I had a teacher in high school names Mr. Burger. He was a science teacher and he was a mean son of a bitch. Man did I hate him. I believe he would drink at school too. Just a really objectionable human being. So that's why I avoided this restaurant for so long. The connection was too much. Boy was I missing out. The burgers? The steak sandwiches? The onion rings? They are better than good but a notch or two below stupendous if that makes sense. The service was friendly. Something the teacher Mr. Burger could take a lesson from himself I don't mind saying. read more

Juicy, fatty, drippy mess that was a real burger. Grandpa sized fries with cardiac arrest gravy and curds. I could not eat this every day, or I would last a week, but MAN O MAN was it good! read more

I waited to go back a second time because I couldn't believe this place was that good. I was happily proven wrong. This is one of the best poutines I've had in forever, and the milkshake is soooooo creamy. The first time I went in, I ordered a 4 oz. burger. The ingredients to choose from are simple but tasted fresh. I enjoyed the burger so much, I couldnt believe it was that good. So I made the decision to go a second time. The second visit, I ordered a bacon poutine and a blueberry milkshake. The gravy was the right kind (not everywhere does it right), the bacon wasnt overcooked, the cheese curds were melty and the french fries kept their crunch. I was pleasantly surprised by the milkshake. I wasnt sure what to expect, but I really enjoyed it. And they have many flavour options. Finally, the staff was very friendly, helpful and they looked like they enjoyed their jobs. This place will probably be my new crave space. read more

great food. fantastic menu options. a great classic spot for burger lovers.

Great burgers! Best gluten free bun in the city, for sure!

Prices are all over the place. 5oz burger combo w/ fries and a can of pop on Wed. $14.69 5oz burger combo w/ onion rings and a can of pop on Thurs. $17.00 WTF? read more

We were driving to Windsor and decided to stop at this lovely establishment just off the 401 instead of on of those OnRoutes and let me tell you it was the best decision we made all week. The service was fast considering food is made fresh when you order. The food itself was brilliant and with generous portions, you even had the option to indicate how cooked/crispy you would like your fries, I have never seen something like that before in my life. The decor is a fun little addition with 1950s memorabilia to give a classic dinner feel. Later on our trip we had to stop at A&W and noticed that Mr. Burger was within 5$ of our order from A&W but obviously the quality of Mr. Burger triumphed. Great food, great price and I encourage everyone to take the extra 5 minutes to wander off the 401. read more

Mr Burger may not look great from the outside, but once inside you will experience a proper old-school burger joint. The burgers taste amazing, and price is reasonable for what you get. The fries could be a little better, I found them too salty and not as crisp as I'd like, but they were fine overall. But to be fair, I came here for a good burger more so the fries. I haven't tried the shakes yet, but I hear they're definitely worth sampling. read more

Classic BurgersCame here for the first time with my boyfriend the other day. He order the home banquet burger combo and I had the home bacon burger. We paid just over $20 for the two burgers, 1 large drink and 1 fry. The burgers were very delicious! They weren't greasy at all. The fries were really tasty as well. Would definitely come back here.Classic Burgers read more

Mr Burger - Home bacon burger 10/10 - Caterers Near Me - Oshawa, Ontario

I had not been here in years ... took my hubby and he loved it. We got a couple burgers and shakes onion rings and fries. It has not changed much still has a suit inside that belonged to elvis. That's pretty much the theme .. old school diner - will be going back :) read more

The steak was amazing but the service was awful The combo was $14.90 each But the bill was over $38. We were charged $5 in extras We were not told that much rooms were $1.50 for 2 steaks. My husband asked if he could have onion rings instead of fries was told yes but was charged extra again I was reading the menu trying to figure out why I paid so much as the bill only had a total no itemized prices I even had to ask for a bill as I keep track of what comes out of my bank account The man at the cash register told me to go wait in the dining room which was 3 feet from where I was standing I know many people treat older people like crap in my middle 60s and did not appreciate being talked to in this manner I advise that the food was really good but not good enough to put up with this kind of Rudeness especially after paying $38 for their food read more

I came to Oshawa to list a town house for sale. My fellow Yelpsters there is no decent restaurant in All of Oshawa. I like to go to mom and pap shops to give my support and that they are much better than the franchise restaurants. I went to a place called Mr Burger, one word for $14.56 I got a burnt burger and greasy fries with gravy on the side. It was garbage. read more

Best burger in Durham just make sure you get the homemade burger their other burger that isn't homemade is very meh. Their fries, onion rings and milkshakes are also very good. Overall very good place you won't be disappointed. read more

The burgers are amazing. This is how a burger should be done. The fries are great...the onion rings are to die for. I can't remember ever getting anything that wasn't good from their menu. If there is ever a complaint it is that it can get busy if you go at the wrong time of the day. I really don't think that is too big a negative. Love the 50's diner feel with all the memorabilia. Can't say enough about it. read more

Another Oshawa staple. Another Oshawa business south of the 401. This place is so close to GM, that they have a GM burger. There is not an inch of wall space in here that is not covered in a license plate, or some piece of Elvis memorabilia. There is a large seating area, but most people get take out so the only line ups seem to be at the counter. Even though this is a burger place, and my family has been coming here for eons, I prefer their steak sandwich, hot dog or grilled chicken on a bun. Portions - muther flocking huge. Share fries or onion rings. Unless you haven't eaten in days you will not be able to finish your whole meal. Go for their milkshakes, but ditch the gravy. It is watery and made from a cheap mix. The people who work here...miserable....but that is what makes the place what it is. The snarly charm. It is worth hopping off the 401 at Stevenson or Simcoe just to pop your head in and look at all the Elvis stuff. Never seen another place like it. And..the seating...very 70's. read more

Simple place decorated with Elvis paraphernalia, license plates, Coke collectables. Great food and friendly service!

Big and old school. Ordered the double banquet, it was legit. Force for the combo with fries and coke was $12. A little steep but this is a BIG burger. No wasabi mayo or fancy ingredients just olds chill burger goodness. If the combo was $8 i would be crazy about it, at $12 still good if you are in the area read more

I've been to this location once for a take out order and ordered online through Uber eats once. On my first visit to this location, I order the steak sandwich. The steak was way over cooked when I returned home, the fries were soggy. I decided to give them a second try a few months later. This time I used Uber Eats. I order two items. One banquet burger combo and a poutine. The combo should come with fries and a drink. When I received the order, they left out the fries and the drink... I only received the burger. I called the store and they blamed Uber Eats for not displaying the order correctly on their screen. I'm not sure how this is possible when every other restaurant has no problem reading the order. The person on the phone really seems to not care, didn't even apologize and suggested I come into the store, with the food I did receive so it can be corrected. The whole point of ordering online for delivery is so you don't have to visit the store.. I guess this concept is lost with the staff working. Here's my Uber receipt, it's displays everything clearly... 1 Home Banquet Burger (Bacon and Cheese) Choose your Combo French Fries (CA$0.00) Choose your Drink Cola (CA$0.00) Choose your toppings Mustard (CA$0.00) Pickles (CA$0.00) Ketchup (CA$0.00) Side Sauce Small Gravy (CA$1.09) 1 Poutine Choose your Preparation Curd (CA$0.00) read more

Frozen patties, frozen fries, gravy from a packet....but sometimes, I get the craving for it. Prices are reasonable and the portions are ample. My usual order is the banquet burger, fries and gravy on the side with a Coke. The joint is full of character from the vinyl records on the ceiling, to the suit worn by Elvis in a glass case to the vintage license plates on the wall. The people behind the counter have been working there for years and it shows. That's exactly what I like about this place. Sure you could get a fancier burger somewhere else, that's not what Mr Burger is about though. This is a working man's joint for a working man's appetite. One of the few burger joints where you can get a burger and a Beer on your lunch hour. read more

As always for my Burger Joint reviews I ordered: "the biggest/most premium Burger on the menu, fries, and a shake (If possible)." I'll list my Pros and then Cons. Pros: -A tasty burger option for a frozen patty -Lots of fries given - Again, not homemade, but they're decent -Offer tasty Milkshakes made the old fashioned way -Banana milkshake option that NO ONE seems to have -FANTASTIC VALUE -Simple Menu -Friendly Staff who love to joke -Great Retro "Old School" Mom and Pop vibe with Nostalgia and memorabilia wall to wall Cons: -Not homemade burgers or fries For me, Mr. Burger and Johnny's North End Burgers are basically one and the same. If you want a cheap filling burger/fries/shake that tastes good, this the place to go. The bang for your buck is at an all time high here. Again, I have NO ISSUE with a burger joint that just does frozen patties/fries when they're priced accordingly. Places like Starr Burger and Hero Burger take note, THIS is what you price your food at when it's NOT homemade. read more

Big improvements at Mr. burger with new owners and the addition of a good home burger and excellent philly cheese steak on a bun. Keep up the good work and improvements read more

Long time customer but the place has really gone down hill in the last bit last delivery order didn't even show up they insisted it did and after 2 hrs of arguing with them. They finally refunded my card without remaking order for my family who waited 3 hrs. Will never eat there again with that type of customer service. Check out your drivers before insisting your customers are lying! read more

Excellent onion rings. Burgers were frozen patties but bacon on banquets were grilled. Nice toppings. Fast service. read more

Mr Burger - Double banquets - Caterers Near Me - Oshawa, Ontario

Full disclosure: The new owners are like family to me. Known them a long time. Long enough to know that I HAD to finally eat at Mr. BURGER even though I never stepped in this almost 40yr Oshawa mainstay the 12 yrs I lived in Whitby/Oshawa. Saying that, I've never had a Steak sandwich as good as the one I had at Mr. Burger. They carve the meat from the sirloin proper! I mean really?? So good, and the bun was perfect. Admittedly, I didn't enjoy the onion rings but man are they famous! And huge. If you're driving through Durham on your way to points East, you'll get a much better feed stopping at Mr. BURGER vs any of the On Route rest stops. I am from Montreal originally and return home often. I know each and every over-priced generic rest stop. Oh, and they have JUST introduced a homeburger...6oz never frozen. Again, yes I know the guys but ALSO know this burger grind well. Go for it (if they haven't sold out). read more

This is a great place in Oshawa to come for a Burger. The prices are very reasonable as affordable or better than local fast food chains. If you're an Elvis or nostalgia fan the owner has a great collection of rare and vintage items. read more

Mr Burger - Caterers Near Me - Oshawa, Ontario

Been going here for close to 30 years. They should really rename it to Mr. Steak, for once you try one, you will never order their hamburger again. Always cooked to my liking, a little on the pink side. Order your fries well done, if you like them crispy. The gravy is good and once on a while, I will get the poutine, with real kurd! Try the shakes if you are a shake lover. The rings are too greecy for my liking, but hey! that is just my taste. The place hasn't changed much since I have been going there. Adding more records, license plates, and the odd collectable to the wall, is the only things that is different. If you have never been, it is worth a look see. Could definitely use a renovation, but I will keep going just for the comfort food. read more

A pretty decent old school burger joint. The decor is neat, but the place seems a little tired. I ordered onion rings with my burger and it was a little on the greasy side. Been coming here since I was a kid-- which is one of the reasons I probably like it so much. Used to be a me and my grandpa type of outing. read more

I have had good food here before but some of the sanitation practices at this restaurant will leave your stomach turning I've witnessed the old lady cook take gum out of her mouth with her bare hand and then immediately grab cheese and put it on people's food as well as take a wet dirty rag and wipe down the burger topping area with bare hands and again grab the cheese and put this on people's food without washing her hands This is repulsive Anyone who dares eat here should observe what's going on behind the counter read more

Great burger place - typical greasy spoon. If you're looking for a traditional patty burger, they have it. If you're looking for a home-style burger, they have it. The poutine is great, with choice of shredded mozza or curd. Absolutely love this place. read more

We have lived near this restaurant for twenty years and we love it. Family friendly atmosphere, awesome collector items and pictures of Marilyn Munroe, Elvis Presley, etc. The burgers, etc. are sumptuous. This place should be your next go to. read more

I've had better burgers at star burger and Five Guys. However, their poutine is pretty decent and they have the best milkshakes I have had in the Durham Region read more

Great Burger place in demand location close to GM Plant! Great Food and Fast and Friendly Service

A fixture in the Shwa for a great, affordable burger. Eat in, take out or delivery!

Mr. Burger has ruined every other burger place for me. I've never had a burger as good as the GM burger anywhere else.

I ordered a double burger and fries. The only good thing about this meal was the bun. The fries were overcooked and dry, and the burger patties didn't even taste like beef. Maybe it's that I'm used to American burgers, but how can these be that far off? read more

Was a great late night stopping point with the kids when they used to go to oshawa for a treat on the way home quality has slipped a bit but still quick and dirty get a burger and fries on your way the place could use a makeover but the food is decent for what you're getting it's a burger joint nothing fancy burger fries milkshake on your way read more

Going downhill fast..The burgers taste nothing like they used to and I see everyone up talking thier onion rings well I call BULLSHIT on that one. 3 times in a row they were grease soaked and bland..no taste whatsoever but grease and blah pancake batter type coating..you all can eat that crap all you want, if I'm paying that kinda price for food I want good quality not crap. Never again thank you. read more

The fries and Mayonnaise were great but the steak Kizer was not good at all. The onion rings were too greassy. Veggie burger was ok. Strawberry milk shake was good, on ice-creamy side. Service was good. read more
