The burgers here are huge, with creations like The Big Jack — a HEFTY burger with two patties, Jack sauce, fries, gravy, cheese curds, ranch, AND a grilled cheese all on the burger — we think it’s perfect for 4/20.

Urban Diner

Sometimes 4/20 starts earlier in the day, and breakfast is what you’re looking for. This spot has a packed sandwich that comes not with one but two eggs cooked in any style, with an exciting choice of meats, including ham, strip bacon, maple sausage, and even meatloaf.

Waffle Bird

The menu at Waffle Bird is not like your run-of-the-mill chicken and waffles restaurant. It’s almost ideally suited for a 4/20 crowd. There’s chicken and waffles, but the menu also has the woahnut, a beautiful combination of a waffle and a donut.

Stuffed Pastries

A food item that is delicious AND you can trip out over is the ultimate meal on 4/20. Stuffed Pastries makes modern Korean snacks, filling animal-shaped pastries with a signature custard and decorating them beautifully. There are also soft-serve AND pizza options!

Leopold’s Tavern

Leopold’s Tavern has some of the best poutines in the city, from the classic version made the proper Quebec way to new takes, like the buffalo chicken ranch poutine. If you’re feeling up for it, try the massive Punchbowl Poutine, which weighs in at over eight pounds.

High Dough

A joint with the word “high” in it is already perfect for this list. It helps that this place serves up cheesy and crispy Detroit-style deep-dish pizza. This is one of the best places to get munchies.
