| - This is a solid place for burger and beer. I usually get whatever the special burger of the day is, but we found ourselves here on a Friday and there was no special. I had the Hawaiian (don't @ me), which they do with pineapple and fresh jalapeño. It was an excellent combo, I loved it. Burgers are big here, but not oversize, kind of perfect. Good bun. Salad or fries? I chose salad this time. It's mixed greens with a few diced veg and a really good dressing. Satisfying.
There's been a recent improvement (at this location, anyway) in the way burgers are served. They've switched from plastic baskets lined with paper to wooden platters. Things look better this way, and it's nicer to eat from.
One question mark for us was this little "drug cup" of coleslaw bits. There's no flavor in this sample (or not enough of it to extract anything besides soggy mayo), and even if it did, it belongs next to fish and chips, not next to a better salad and a burger. BQM might rethink this. If they think there's not enough coverage on the platter, how about a tiny taste of house pickle instead (something unique, like carrots, beans) instead?
We were very happy to see Collective Arts on the beer list on this visit :)
