I'm slow. Slow in that it has taken me 8 years of living in Calgary and 8 months of living 2 blocks away to come here. Good things come to those who wait? I think so.
I stopped in for a "to go" order mid afternoon on a Sunday after a driving adventure with my hounds. It was busy but there was a spot right in front, despite the teeny lot.
So many burgers to choose from. I couldn't find a named one that matched what I wanted so I just asked for the combo of toppings. No problem! She quickly confirmed what would normally be on the burger most like what I picked - appreciated. I got fries with gravy as a side. Go big or go home, I say.
I was getting it to go so I found a little nook to stand in. There seemed to be a non stop stream of people coming and going but everything flowed well. Everyone seemed super friendly and there was a welcoming vibe to the place. Where else are their families with young kids, bikers, exchange students, punks, preps and hipsters happily intermingling? And everything in between?
Food was fantastic. Good old greasy spoon delicious. Portions were large and price was decent. Everything was still warm when I got it home. Perfect. I'm glad I finally got around to coming here.
