| - Newly opened right in central Mississauga, this Union Burger has marked the beginning of the gourmet burger uprising of Canada's sixth largest city. After Toronto's apparent gourmet-burger epidemic (Burger Priest, Holy Chuck, Burgernator) I was hardly surprised when this little gem popped up.
Being one of the first gourmet burger chains in Sauga, I decided to give it a try with a friend of mine.
All the pricing and options were very typical, I felt. I ordered the peppercorn/goat cheese burger while my friend got the vegetarian. Had I known I wouldn't be able to customize my options, I would have gone with a classic cheeseburger (with all the works haha). The combination was good, but not my favourite. We also ordered sweet potato fries (with chipotle mayo) and a drink to make a combo. At the time, they had a promotion where you would get a coupon for a free combo for the next burger you order.
The soda fountain was insane. You may have already seen it, but UB has the Coke machine that can dispense every Coke product in existence (Coca-Cola, not cocaine) and beyond. The machine could mix drinks to achieve strawberry-Sprite, lemonade-fruit punch, cranberry-iced tea and probably lots more. We settled with lemonade-fruit punch after much sampling.
Anyway, UB has great, friendly, PATIENT service (ordering a burger requires a lot of thought) and a very casual ambiance; great for relaxing with a good burger.
