A&W is joining in on the smash burger craze by dropping its first-ever smash burger across Canada later this month.
Available for a limited time, A&W will be offering a smash burger available with a single or a double smash patty that is loaded with melted cheddar cheese, pickles, sliced onions, and a secret sauce served on a toasted brioche bun.

A&W Smash Burgers
“Hand-smashed burgers are rarely done at this scale because it takes quality ingredients
and thoughtful execution,” said Karan Suri, Senior Director, Innovation at A&W Canada. “Each hand-smashed, juicy, grass-fed beef patty is paired with real cheddar cheese, tangy pickles, and our signature sauce for a perfectly balanced bite. Pure burger bliss.”
āThere is something so special about the simplicity of a perfect smash burger! We are excited to be welcoming Canadians to try our delicious new obsession,ā added Susan Senecal, CEO of A&W Canada. āThe same quality and care you know and love from A&W is now bringing you a fun and flavourful smash burger.ā
The new smash burgers officially launch nationwide on May 25. However, Torontonians looking to get an exclusive first taste of the new offerings are able to get the handheld a little bit early.
The burger chain shared that they are giving an entire location the same “smash” treatment as its beef. Folks can visit 780 King St. W., Toronto, on Friday, May 22, from noon to 5 p.m. to visit this smashing new A&W restaurant and receive a complimentary Double Smash Burger while supplies last.
