Dorotheatre 8074

Love me a good burger, but at what point does it become worth the $20-$25 price for these boutique places. Big boy I thought had good burgers and reasonable prices. Now you’ve got places like Burger Factory, Bboyz and so forth that seem to be going the Five guys model. Slightly above average in taste, but crappy value from a pricing perspective

I did go to Burger Drops downtown Toronto which is highly regarded. Burger was good and pricing was Ok. But seems now everyone wants a smash patty and to me that’s just a fad. I think a good burger is thick and juicy. lol

It's an absolute tragedy the way the prices have increased and the quality has diminished. Finding a good burger these days is a crap shoot.

Quick Flame in South Oshawa crafts a delectable burger.

I used to enjoy the "Griiled Cheese Deluxe" offered at Lakeview Burger in Oshawa, admittedly my grease tolerance is high

Still around quality has deteriorated greatly, like most places.

But what is the actual quality of the burger like? I really try and avoid factory made burgers. I like knowing a person made it if you know what I mean.

Is Pete's big bite still owned by the original people who opened it? They were fantastic people and knew how to make a burger. Last time I was there it felt like the quality dropped

I've only been once and the food was decent. Pretty confident it was frozen patties just tossed on the grill. I preferred the 5oz homemade burgers from Mr Burger in Oshawa myself but try both and make your own decision.

Haha only half of the first page is about Doratheatre. The other 2 and a half pages are about burgers. I love it.

It took me a few moments to realize that you knuckleheads were actually talking about hamburgers.
I thought it was a code word for something I wasn't getting lol.

Rarely do poon threads go so off the tracks. I guess they don't call it a 'Royale with cheese' for nothing.

I'm sure we could turn this thread sexual somehow.

So this whole thread has me craving hamburgers.

Coincidently, last night, I was driving by Butchies, haven’t been there in years.

I got the hamburger plus one side ($15 + taxes). I’m happy to report that the patty on the burger was very thick and juicy. The bun was warmed perfectly and the fries were crispy and golden.

That's a really mean thing to say. You couldn't pay me to eat that crap.

Thanks for chiming in, that place is close to me. I hadn't considered the possibility that they may serve burgers.

Local Burger joints should give us a TERB discount.
