The burger was good but it could be better. I got the wagyu truffle burger and B got the Wicked Cheeseburger and N got the Man's man Burger. N said his burger left a frozen taste in his mouth or some strange taste. B was expecting his burger to be spicy and it was not. My wagyu truffle smelled good but it was not as flavorful compared to truffle burger from elsewhere. On top of all that my burger was lacking in sauce. Their fries were tasty. B ordered a side of peppercorn sauce and they were quite generous on the sauce amount. The restaurant is somewhat hidden and out of nowhere. They do have a parking lot that is free for diners. Service was ok.

Happy hour menu 2024

Stopped for Happy hour. The food menu for happy jour looked more limited than before. I had fish taco which: surprisingly big and contains lots of vegetables, sauce and big chunk of fish. I enjoyed very much. Man's Man slider: small but well made. Meat and bacon cooked perfectly. Tomato , fried onion, and sauce are sandwiched. My friend had a magic mushroom burger. It looked burned dark. Cocktails were yummy. I had watermelon vodka with some pop and frozen topper. It was like juice and the right amount alcohol for happy hour.

Romer's Burger Bar in the River District is one of four locations across Metro Vancouver. The other locations are in Port Moody, Kitsilano, and Lynn Valley. The River District location has a nice heated patio overlooking the Fraser River. If it gets too cold you can ask for a blanket to stay warm on the patio. Overall they serve good food. They're known for their burgers and it's true their burgers are delicious. Attentive service. Be prepared, most mains are over $20 each.

Wicked Deadly Cheese Burger and Sangria
Mary C.

Romer's used to be a favourite burger joint but over the years it has changed, some good and some not so good. What I like most about Romer's Burger Bar in South Vancouver is the patio with the great view of the Fraser River - love seeing the tug boats move things about. The waterfront walk way also offers a nice stroll after a big meal. Luckily for the past 2 visits, service was a hit and the burgers decent. I'll still come to Romer's as the location is accessible for many of my friends, free parking, big patio and great views. Our visit this week, the Wicked Deadly Cheese and Nashville Chicken burgers were good. The Mushroom Burger was ok as the patty was smaller but the truffle fries were tasty. The Sangria was good. The not so good and needs improvements: fries are smaller in portion, drier and some burnt, a little pricey for the burgers compared to others burger joints and service can be a miss at times like no one greeting us at the front door and having to ask for water.

Romer's is consistently good for their burgers and garlic fries. I have been here a couple of times during happy hours and they are great. Timing and pricing wise. You can still find HH food and drinks for under $10, unlike similar places where their HH offers are like normal pricing. So it is fairly busy here during weekday HH though I have been lucky in getting a table without reservations. The drinks are refreshing and the food is really good. My new favorite here is the tuna tataki. I'm still thinking about it and how many can I demolish in future visits. The garlic fries is a must order as they sprinkle actual minced garlic over it. Get the burgers on the regular menu. I did not really like the feature burger on my last visit which was the Thanksgiving burger. The description was attractive but the stuffing was too bready. I do like this location as the Fraser River can make a pretty view especially when the sun is setting. Parking is available on site though the lot is not super big.

Calamari
Natalie W.

Stopped by for happy hour and left full and happy. Inside, it was quite busy as there was a large group, so we sat outside. Their patio is enclosed, with plastic screens, so it doesn't keep out the cold air. They offered us blankets, which was nice. I noticed they had heaters in the center of the patio but it didn't look like it was turned on. Other than that, the patio was nice. They turned on the string lights and it was a nice view of the sunset and the river. Servers were friendly and attentive. The happy hour menu has a decent amount of food and drink options. We ended up with calamari, tater tots, and sangria. We also ordered chicken tenders and fries. The sangria was stronger than I thought it would be. I could definitely taste the red wine. The food items came out hot and crisp. Tater tots weren't heavily loaded with sour cream and cheese, which I liked. It let the tater tots remain crispy. The calamari was a decent size, although I wish there was more pieces of squid than jalapenos and onions. I did like that it came with two sauces, tazitki and honey sambal. The chicken tenders were also done well. I liked the crisp breading and the fries were thick and crunchy. Overall, it was a very satisfying meal.

Big breakfast

This is nice burger and brunch eats restaurant set right on the Fraser River . Lovely Ambience . Food was nicely dished and appealing . Service was attentive and courteous . I had the big breakfast and the food was decent I wouldn't say top notch though . And the day I went somehow they were not stocked with orange juice. Lots of seating available inside if one wants to have a party . Well laid out only challenge is if their parking lot is full it may be a fight to find parking in the busy adjoining side streets

I wanted to love Romer's since it's one of the closest restaurants to me, but I've been here twice and both times food and drinks were okay but nothing outstanding. Most recently, my friend and I dropped by for an impromptu happy hour / dinner since we were picnicking in the nearby park. There's plenty of seating here, both indoors and outdoors. Since it was such a beautiful and warm day out, almost everyone was sitting on their patio. Happy hour is offered daily 3-6 and 9-close with both discounted food and drinks. The hh food menu in particular is huge. I started with one of their daily drink deals, a mango mojito, for only $5.95. It was okay. I also ordered hh calamari for $8.95. I didn't realize, but you also get an assortment of other fried items like onions and jalapenos with the dish, while the actual portion of calamari was smaller than I was expecting. My friend got the hh Valentina tots ($6.95) and really enjoyed that. For my main, I went with the Magic Mushroom burger ($17.25) and substituted gravy for the Boursin cheese. I'm honestly not a huge burger person, but I figured since they're known for their burgers, I should try it out. It was okay, but I thought the patty lacked flavor, even with the portabello mushrooms and gravy. We paid over $80 total for one drink, one hh appetizer, and a burger per person. It's definitely on the pricy side.

Only took a few years, but finally got to try their food. The burgers are pretty solid, though they are a bit pricey. The double smash burger had a decent amount of fixings. Guessing the smashed part was why the patty barely held together. The fries are thick cut (not wedge though), and the garlic option is seriously tasty. With that said, the burger itself didn't really stand out compared to the other chains (Earls, Cactus Club etc.). In other words, not a bad choice if one is in the area, but not worth a special trip out. The outdoor patio is now covered, which is helpful on those rainy days.

MAGIC MUSHROOM and CRISPY FISH TACOS & FRIES
Kathy P.

Are you team burger or team taco? We were craving burgers for lunch and ended up at Romer's Burger Bar at River District and saw tacos on the menu so we decided to order both! I enjoyed the fish tacos more since the burger was more on the cooked side but the view made up for it. On the table: MAGIC MUSHROOM 17.25 Caramelized onions, sautéed Portobello mushrooms, herb garlic Boursin cheese, baby arugula CRISPY FISH TACOS & FRIES 18.95 WEDNESDAY WINE DOWN - Romer's 9 oz sippin red 7.95 ROMER'S PALE ALE - 6.9 Tip: Ask for the patio. They are heated with a gorgeous water view.

I had a gift card for Romer's so we decided to walk over to try them out. We tried their Ahi Tuna Tataki, Spaghettini with Jim's Jumbo Meatballs, and their seasonal soup. Their Ahi Tuna Tataki did not look like the image they have on their website (we were expecting 5 wonton crisps), but it was our favourite dish of the three. The Spaghettini with Jim's Jumbo Meatballs was quite disappointing. There was something about the meatballs that we couldn't pinpoint while we were eating, but it didn't taste like meat at all and was very dry. At the end of our lunch, my partner and I came to the conclusion that it was probably beyond meat meatballs (even though it didn't say on the menu) because of the lack in flavour and juiciness. The garlic bread was pretty good. The seasonal soup was mediocre for $8.95. Overall, the experience wasn't great considering we spent $50 for a meal that didn't wow us. Service was a bit slow even though we went at 4:00pm and the waiter we had didn't seem like she wanted to serve us.

We happened to get a parking spot right in front of Burger Crush so after a bit of shopping on Granville St., we decided to stop for an afternoon snack at Burger Crush before getting into our car to drive somewhere else. We shared an order of Vegan Crush Fries and Vegan Nuggets between the three of us. Also ordered a Vegan Milkshake and shared that with my daughter. Grandma wasn't so much into the milkshake part of the snack. Vegan Crush Fries were just as good as last time. Grandma commented several times on how tasty they were. That's a big win in my books. Always happy to hear of anything that makes my mom happy! I enjoyed the crispiness of the Vegan nuggets but flavor wise I think they were just OK. The dip is very much needed for these nuggets. On their own, they don't really have much flavor. I recommend breaking them into smaller pieces and then dipping those smaller pieces before eating them as they were piping hot and biting into it as is might burn your tongue. Found that out the hard way! I was pretty impressed with how well the nuggets retained their heat! Loved the Vegan milkshake! We ordered the Vanilla flavored Vegan milkshake and it was soooo good. The menu says that it's made from coconut milk ice cream. I couldn't taste any coconut milk flavor. All I tasted was Vanilla and it was sooooo good!

When it first came out, there was a mixup in my order and it came out with plain fries - they were quick to fix their error and there was a generous portion of tater tots for the $6 upgrade fee.

After going to a local sporting event and looking for a late night bite to eat, we decided to come give them a try. The interior is quite minimalist, and the menu is simple. My husband wanted to try their bacon cheeseburger while I ordered a classic cheeseburger. We ordered one set of classic french fries and one set of poutine fries. While they were preparing our food, we made our way down the long hallway to the back where the speakeasy was located. We just wanted to peek our heads in, but didn't stay for a drink. The cool thing about Hundy is that the speakeasy will serve their food while apparently also serving up some tasty cocktails. But back to Hundy and the food. The cheeseburger was absolutely delicious and the french fries were cooked to crispy golden perfection. As for the poutine, it was some of the best that we had on our trip.
