Nothing hits the spot like a juicy, perfectly-topped, fresh-off-the-grill burger, so it’s a good thing Vancouver’s selection of this classic comfort food is absolutely out of this world.

From high-end beef patties at Hawksworth to the glorious $2.89 Wakwak Burger from our favourite Granville Street food truck, whether it’s breakfast, classic cheese, or covered in bacon, Vancouver has every kind of burger you could dream of.

Here are 10 burgers you need to try in Vancouver.

L’Abattoir

We’d argue this is one of the best brunch burgers in Vancouver, and it’s easy to see why. Available during this Gastown haunt’s weekend brunch service, the Breakfast Burger is a layered delight which features a hashbrown patty, a fried egg, and a quarter pound patty.

Head through the side door and up the stairs of Main Street’s Campagnolo and you’ll be in the perfect position to devour The Dirty Burger, which can be ordered in the main dining room at Campagnolo during lunch (Monday to Friday from 11:30 am to 2:30 pm), and seven night a week from 6 pm onwards Upstairs. This dish is brought to you by Chef Robert Belcham (also responsible for the Monarch Burger) and is widely regarded as one of the best burgers in Vancouver, and with a 40-day dry aged beef patty, a sunny side up egg, and secret sauce, we’d expect nothing less.

If Beyonce was a burger, this would be her. The Hawksworth Beef Burger is a combination of applewood smoked bacon, aged cheddar, and thick, crispy frites. For $23 it’s definitely not your everyday burger, but it’s worth the splurge. This dish is only available during lunch service.

Special Mention

Wakwak Burger

Whatever you’re thoughts on Wak Wak, you can’t deny that the $2.85 price tag for a burger form this food truck is anything less than extraordinary. It may be simple, but the patty is juicy, the lettuce is crispy, and the bun is hella soft. If that’s not a recipe for a solid street burger, we don’t know what is.

Address: Granville at Pender
