| - First impression were pretty bad at W Burger Bar. Walked in, was asked how many people and then proceeded to be completely ignored. Since it wasn't busy I decided to sit down. It was only after we complained to somebody that we got service.
WBB was quick to recover, providing us with free sweet potato fries (probably could use some salt which could be considered positive and negative). Ordered the Bison burger (other choices include Beef, Chicken, Turkey, Lamb, and Kobe) on whole wheat with recommended toppings. The burger was a solid serving. It was flavorful but I found the wheat bun very overpowering. My recommendation is to skip the healthy whole wheat and give the white a shot. Had the plain poutine as well which was fine. It was good to have something normal instead of something crazy that seems to be all the rage these days (they do offer a meat one if you want).
I would say that W is the same range as Craft, BQM, GBC, etc., but it differentiates itself by serving 'spiked' milkshakes. If you like the above mentioned competition, then you probably won't be disappointed. I actually think that the decor at W is a minus compared to the more understated Craft, BQM, or GBC. To me, W is a bit too trendy but maybe that's a positive for others.
