| - Popped into this place after a recommendation from a friend who is an avid burger connoisseur, their verdict was they serve up fresh tasty burgers.
It's a nice clean little burger joint, obviously family owned and operated as the cashier was very attentive and friendly...you order up your meal and they give you a number and they call you when your food is ready. Items are ordered seperately so you order your burger and it will run you upwards of $6 then you order your side of fries which runs upwards of $4 and a drink which I believe was around $2, shakes are available too but I generally steer away from heavy creamy concocted beverages. They have poutine offerings with several toppings and those will run you over $6 for a basic. You are looking at about a $13 lunch for a specialty burger combo, they do have a basic single cheese burger lunch combo for around $9, so it's pretty much a treat type burger place.
I agree the burgers are very tasty! I ordered the mushroom truffle burger; meat was fresh and juicy, seasoned well, bun was fantastic, plenty of mushroomy goodness and melty cheese was pretty darn good, although I am sure it was processed. We decided on sharing a chicken strip basket as well and they were good although the strips were quite thin and there was only 4 strips so for a meal it might be small if that is all you had. The fries are just ok, I was expecting thick cut restaurant style fries and they were basically your regular run of the mill frozen russet variety fries. For the two of us, for two burgers, a drink, a basket of fries and strips ran about $25. I imagine that if a family of four came here and ordered specialty burgers, each got a fries and each got a drink you would probably pay upwards of $50.
All in all, Boardwalk is a great little burger place if you want to change it up from Rotten Ronnies or BK but it will cost you a few dollars more and there is a bit of a wait but everything is served up fresh and with a smile.
Solid 3.5, I will be back if I was in the area.
