Super cute diner style location. The menu was really exciting to me and the burgers looked phenomenal. I was a bit confused as to why a root beer milkshake fell into the premium flavors category. I was so excited to try the burger, but unfortunately it was so well done that it was essentially a hockey puck. read more

50's Burgers - Texas BBQ Grandma's Handcut Fries - Burgers Near Me - Burnaby, British Columbia

Great restaurant! Overall the burgers are good and a decent value. I really like the California king burger

My wife got the London Secret with mushrooms and I got the Texas BBQ. The patties were good, juicy and a good size. The bun was soft and the fries were fresh and tender. There isn't much room inside so it has a small/thin tall table with a couple of chairs but if you really wanted to sit, the table will be close to the counter. They have two picnic tables in front of the place. There are a couple of other old picnic tables in the back grass area but they are dirty. One of the table is right by the fence/bushes so you won't notice it due to the overgrown bushes/grass. You would order and then stand outside and wait for them to call your name. It is hard to hear due to all the cars going by on Edmonds. It does take some time for them to make your burger as they say they make it from scratch so if you're in a rush for takeout, you may need to wait. read more

I was lucky enough to meet the owner, Abhi tonight at Lost in the 50's burgers. Although I have known about this place for years, I never tried this place until after the pandemic. And I am very glad that this place survived. The ambiance here is retro Americana burger stand cool. With photos of Elvis and old Coca cola memorabilia everywhere. This place also reminds me of a long ago famous Vancouver Burger stand in my youth that used to exist along Kingsway-except this place has more memorabilia from the 50's. A lot more! So far I have had the L.A King, their Hawaiian and Alberta Sirloin. And their fried chicken. Their burgers are probably one of the best in the city, if not the best. And for $10 taxes in you can get a mini combo of any of their burger which includes fries and a can of pop. Their buns are made fresh in house every day and same with their burgers and you can really taste the difference! They don't have a ton of seating but it is very cozy if you do decide to eat here. This place really is a classic burger stand and you can honk for service at the take out menu and park your car to wait for your order if you are going to take out or eat in your car. During the summer they usually have picnic tables outside. This isn't just a place for good food but also an experience! Oh, they also have a secret menu of chicken wings and popcorn chicken (usually on Uber eats) but if you are at the counter just ask and they will let you know how much the price is read more

Some sort of wizardry is happening in the kitchen. I saw with my own eyes that they cooked their burgers fresh on the griddle and it was assembled well. BUT somehow all the juices from the patty disappeared. Vanish. Gone. Poooof. FOH. I took at a bite immediately after it was served to me.... it was DRY as hell (figuratively and literally). No ketchup, pickle, or whatever was gon save it. Just DRY ass patty. Makes no sense. It looked so good in the kitchen but the moment it came to me, a rock hard meat loaf - it must have been a switcharoo. It became instant trash. Go check out this magic trick yourself. read more

Amazing throw back to when food was real and tasted great. This food is all handmade and you can tell. AMAZING fries, great burgers. Go here. You won't regret it! read more

First time coming to the 50's Burgers. Always wanted to try. I was finally in the area so why not. Not bad burger, could use some improvements. Love the decor but with they had more indoor seating. I would love to come back and check out the other burgers. read more

I finally went to this place after seeing it around for decades. It was $15+ for a combo and as you can see for yourself the patty was underwhelming. If that was the regular combo, the "kids meal" would have a patty the size of a toonie. The food was made fresh to go with relatively fresh ingredients but it was the taste that was average at best. This place is obviously living off it's 1950s burger/shake image. But this place should be called "Left in the 50s" (not Lost in the 50s). With so many other places to try out with better quality and for a cheaper price, there is no reason to go back there again unless you left your memory in the 50s. read more

50's Burgers - Burgers Near Me - Burnaby, British Columbia

This restaurant needs to take a good look at how they are really presenting themselves to customers. I ordered my food with a cashier who I could barely hear and communicate with. He was no help to myself and to the one cook in the back of the kitchen. The food took awfully long to prepare and I watched my milkshake in the blender unattended for five minutes. I couldn't believe how outrageous the pricing was as well. If you read this and plan on eating here soon, they charge you an extra $5 per combo "due to inflation" between Monday and Friday. They have small signs with small text posted around the restaurant which makes it hard to know. I couldn't believe I tipped on top of my meal as well. I recommend you do not go inside to eat as the facility doesn't seemed like it gets cleaned or wiped down often. The food made up for a little bit of it, but I know next time to take my business some place where they can make your food well and greet you with some enthusiasm. read more

If I could give half stars I would rate 3.5, but this place is not quite worth 4. I had somewhat high expectations after reading some very positive reviews but was left underwhelmed. Yes we did takeout, but it was only a 15min drive home and I fully expect that the quality will Deteriorate somewhat from that, which I've taken into account when reviewing. I ordered the London secret with bacon, fries, and a large chocolate milkshake. The fries were not crispy which could have been from sitting in the takeout box but they also tasted like they had no salt on them at all. The milkshake was decent but honestly I've had better elsewhere and the large seemed more like a regular size to me... the burger was where I had the highest expectations. The patty itself was delicious- you can tell that they are made with quality beef and made by hand. However, unfortunately it was quite greasy and this resulted in the bottom of my bun being really soggy and off putting. My husband ordered the L.A. King which has more toppings than my burger and yet his bun was not soggy. He was happy with the burger but said it wasn't anything over the top to have him rushing back for. He had fries instead of poutine which was really good and not lacking in cheese or gravy- actually I would say tooo much gravy (see pic). Overall, we are happy we tried it here but will probably go elsewhere next time we are craving a burger. read more

I've been curious about this place. We drive by this place all the time. Overall it wasn't an amazing experience. Decent food.

Get ready to step into the time machine when you choose to indulge on your next burger from here. Everything housee made, including the buns! Fresh pressed sirloin burger patties served with "The Works" then topped with your choice of accompaniments from cheese to mushrooms to bacon (you can even add a hot dog or fried egg!) We decided on The London (with mushrooms) and the ever polpular L.A. King (cheese, bacon and mushrooms) combo'd with homecut fries, a Coke and a Banana Fudge milkshake. Everythng is Delicious. We're coming back. The owner and crew are fabulous. Very limited indoor seating, but there are a few spots available outside. There is drive thru service available in keeping with the 50's theme - it would be cool if they brought back the burger hops! read more

This is for the new Steveston location. We had - the London secret, the fish burger (halibut but not sure it was), fries and strawberry milkshake. The fish burger- very small piece of fish, had paid extra for halibut and not sure it was, odd flavor on the fish as well, only ate half. Not worth the $23 by a long shot Milkshake- pretty good Fries- absolutely no seasoning, not sure why. Had requested and paid for garlic sauce on the side as well, they accidentally tossed the fries in it so made a new batch. Unfortunately as our order was take out didn't notice until after we left the side of sauce was missing altogether. london secret- pretty good burger Overall not worth the $63 spent, had high hopes but a bit of a let down read more

Burgers and fries were delicious, employees were very nice. Reasonably priced. Highly recommend!

We had always wondered about this place so finally went. The owner was SUPER chatty, to the point of making us uncomfortable. He kept talking about how we must have felt very sick after every other burger experience anywhere else, but after eating his we would feel super healthy and have excellent digestion... A bit strange. The burgers were ok, the fries decent. The shakes though, were totally not worth the expensive price. They were tiny and the syrup flavouring just languished on the bottom. It was ok, but we aren't rushing back. read more

You weren't wrong! Tasty burger and fries. The gentleman at the drive through window was really lovely. He said he bakes all of the buns in-house and cuts all the potatoes himself. He's also very proud that there are no preservatives in his sirloin. The kids loved their hot dog meals. Everything was really fresh! Will be back :) read more

Thumbs down! Bully owner! I had take-out order of "London Secret" with mushrooms. I'll give you a brief summary of my experience: - I got the wrong order, they made it with bacon - there was no cheese - "sauteed" onion was raw - the ban was obviously old, the top was dry as a desert and the bottom was so soggy that it fell apart - the worst was the patty, it was tasteless and extra dry All in all, it was disgusting. I called to complain, the person who answered the phone apologized and said they would reimburse me. I went back the next day, had the "honor" of meeting the owner, who is incredibly rude and disrespectful - a bully, who wouldn't let me speak. He yelled at me, he said he made his own hamburgers, they're the best, and he won't pay me back my money. See for yourselves how "the best" burger looks. Almost forgot: the ants were crawling all over the counter, can't even imagine how sanitary the kitchen is! So, if you want to waste your money, go ahead. Also, make sure that you got what you paid for. Needless to say, they're never going to see my friends and family again. read more

50's Burgers - Burgers Near Me - Burnaby, British Columbia

I've driven by this place many many times. I live 5 minutes away, I've been wanting to try it. Today was the day. I was hungry and craving a burger. It's a pretty small place, doesn't seat too many inside and maybe several tables outside for nicer days. I ordered a burger with fries. I thought nothing special, it was good. The women in the counter offered me a taste of a mango coconut milkshake, which tasted good. Next time I'll defiantly get one. They have lots of milkshake flavours. The fries were also food. Overall it was ok. I'll try to come on a nice summer day. read more

I've passed this place for years and decided to finally try it out. Based on a lot of the reviews I read it surprised me I had waited so long. I should have kept driving. Burger was dry and tasteless. Onion rings were really greasy. And the chocolate shake was overpriced for something I could have made at home only better. This place may have been good in the past but once was enough for me. It was a disappointment. read more

We moved into the area about 18 months ago and pass by this place several times a week. Although it is pretty much just a shack (with limited seating inside and outside), there is a big sign advertising the best burgers in Canada. We were walking by it the other day and decided to go in and try it out. The menu signage has pictures on it of each burger available, which are ancient and look disgusting, but we decided to try it anyway. I was expecting something pretty bad. I couldn't have been more wrong. We ordered the mushroom burger with fries and a lemonade and went out back to sit at a picnic table. The burger was huge, perfectly prepared and absolutely mouth watering. The fries were homemade and excellent. Nothing was too salty. The cost was about $13.00. We will definitely go back. In an area rich with mostly ethnic restaurants and pizza joints, this place is a rare treasure. read more

Amazing burgers with perfect service. The manager was checking everything when he realized that the fries were not good, immediately changed it and apologized. The ambiance is great and nostalgic. I highly suggest trying it read more

False advertisement. They claim to have hand pressed Pattie's but my patty was very clearly a store bought frozen type patty be cause it was perfectly round, smooth and overly dense. It looked and tasted identical to a McDonalds patty. The rest of the ingredients were fresh but the patty was garbage. It was a slow and snowy day so it's possible that they use premade frozen Pattie's on slow days. But none the less, they should warm you if they are not giving you the advertised product. read more

The cool signage & drive thru brought me here! The burgers will bring me back! They make their own Sirloin burger patties fresh with meat from the butcher each day. They also make their own buns, & slice potatoes for fresh fries. You can really tell when you bite into the burger. My boyfriend and I ordered the Alberta Classic meal, it was two burgers two fries and two pop I think it was around $22 for both. Good prices and go for the nostalgia, support a small business rather than going to McDonalds. It will take a bit more time, you can order at the drive-thru, then park and they'll run it out to you. read more

The food is usually good, except when the buns are stale, they are dry and ruin the food... when I tell the owner about it he goes Oh noooo..our buns are freshest ever, they melt in your mouth like butter The other issue is when you wait in your car for food, they never bring it out or bring it out after a half hour and the fries and onion rings are sopping wet and rubbery, happened last Sunday, #4 burger combo, wirh shake and fries and family size onions rings $32 w/tip for soggy food! Going to think twice about ever going back read more

service was slow, and was not busy. appetizer came with main meal. Calamar i was over cooked and rubbery. Fries were soggy. Bacon in caesar salad was practically raw. Chicken added to the salad was very good. Sat out on patio was very nice. Overall I was disappointed, and doubt if I will go back. read more

Nice little diner with 50's theme that's actually pretty cool. It's definitely a hole in the wall kind of place. We ordered the LA King and Texas BBQ for our burgers. Bread and fries are made fresh and the patties are really juicy. One of the best burgers we ever had! We also got the eggnog and strawberry milkshake and they were soooo good! Definitely try their milkshakes if you're thinking of going here. read more

Just moved into this neighbourhood.... love burgers, so why not give it a try. I phoned in my order and was told the wait would be about 15min. No problem... Got there, went in... was told that one of the items I ordered wasn't available... Not a big deal, it's our first time, substituted the wife's order for the same as mine. Two LA burgers combo 3 (one with fries, the other with onion rings), a chocolate shake, and a strawberry one. While waiting for my order the counter person (owner?) chatted with me, and asked if I'd been before. He was very keen to point out that processed food isn't good and that they don't do that with the beef, and they make their own buns (processed is bad... fresh made stuff tastes SO much better). Order came up.. drove home.. .and really enjoyed my burger. The burgers were great, the shakes really tasty... the fries were really good too. The onion rings... not as great as the rest. I'd go for fries next time... and there WILL be a next time. Great work 50's Burgers! read more

50's Burgers - Two LA King burgers... Onion rings with one, fries with the other. Strawberry shake, and chocolate shake. - Burgers Near Me - Burnaby, British Columbia

Great burgers and the owner is super friendly! There's always some sort of sample for you to try as well, ranging from their handmade chips to freshly made milkshakes. This place definitely won't help you achieve that New Year fitness goal, but make sure to put it on your list for those cheat days! You can't go wrong with any of their burgers. The fries and onion rings are on the oily side, and I personally prefer Costco's and McD's fries, but those are probably more processed whereas this place has hand cut fries. Stepping into this tiny diner really feels like taking a trip back in time, you can really tell the time and effort they spent on decorating. The parking lot is small, but there's never many cars (a lot of people just order to go), so the only difficult part is just getting in and out since the restaurant is on a pretty busy section of Edmonds. read more

Sorry, 50's Burgers, you don't just get to throw shredded mozzarella and gravy on some fries and call that "poutine". Get your [CRAP] together... EDIT: I appreciate 50's Burgers reaching out to me, but there are CLEARLY no curds in this poutine. I have updated my review to TWO stars, as I like the place, have had an OKAY burger there before (as many reviews state, they need to make their patties more flavourful) and I like what it is trying to accomplish (not enough small business like this compared to McDonald's, Tim Horton's, etc). All the best. read more

50's Burgers - Sorry guys, but there are CLEARLY no curds in this "poutine". :( - Burgers Near Me - Burnaby, British Columbia

Felt the need for an awesome big burger and 50's Burgers was the place to go. No chain restaurant was gonna do it for me. It's a pretty small place, only a couple of 2 person tables inside and bar seating, which isn't the most comfortable as the bar stools are so high you can't really get your knees under the bar. Need to knock 6 inches off of the stools! They did give samples of their milkshakes and French fries while i waited, which was a nice touch! I'd probably order a shake to split with my wife. Ordered a London Secret with Mushrooms and a side of onion rings. Took about 10 min and arrived hot and tasty. Hit the spot for me perfectly! Not so juicy that it fell apart or made a mess while eating though. Would recommend and will be back the next time I have the urge for a nice big burger! You can call ahead and order a take out burger, but for the best quality, think you should eat there immediately. Would be perfect in nicer weather with the outdoor seating. read more

Fun place...food was ok. The burger was tbh kinda dry and underseasoned, the rather bland beef patty reminded me of a lean ground beef patty which for me is a poor choice as I love a good 80/20 all beef patty. I liked the "Bull Dog" sausage but the herbs in the focaccia bun clashed with the cheesy sausage for my tastes. Fries would benefit from 2 more minutes in the fryer. One kinda weird thing....we were wondering why we tipped as no one serves you and customers are expected to clear their table and return trays back ourselves...?¿ The tables outside were kinda neglected too as we had to clean our own table with our "wet nap"...js. Still not a bad nosh and very fun place. 'Appy Trails Brianm foodieatlarge.yelp.ca read more

Really good poutine and burgers. A bit on the expensive side, but worth it! Definitely recommend this place.

Came here for a burger and chicken sandwich. Had to wait 20min of how busy it was. Food was great, everything fresh I would definitely come back. I was getting frustrated how long I was waiting but they were super busy and the owner was really nice about it. If you decide to come here just make sure you have patience to wait for you food. It's worth the wait. read more

Hands down one of my favorite places to get burgers in the greater Vancouver area. Go eat here and you'll understand. This place is almost freaking magical. Or maybe I was just really hungry. The only actually bad thing about this place is that there's no washroom here. They give you small hand wipes, which I honestly don't mind. If you're here, you're here for one of three things: their burgers or sandwiches, their french fries (which are freshly cut daily - you can even see the potatoes whole inside the kitchen), or their old school sodas or milkshakes. The owner here is pretty nice and loves to advertise his drinks, fries, and his bread which he apparently bakes fresh every day. You can order literally anything from their menu and it'll come out exactly how food in a '50s diner should - fast, hot, made by honest work, and with quality ingredients, leading to a super satisfying culinary experience. They even have a stamp card reward system for returning customers as well which is nice considering how many times you'll come back after your first visit! A few other notes: 1) onion rings are good, but not great, so you're better off just getting the fries every time. 2) eat your meals inside, don't do take out because the ingredients will get soggy and all that - you gotta eat it while it's hot! Like anything else you choose to take out, it won't taste the same as a fresh meal from the hands that made it. 3) not good for large 10+ parties as there's not that much seating inside, unless you're fine with the outdoor seating. 4) pricing is really decent, better value than McDonald's, but you get waaay better quality and quantity. Think A&W, but better in almost every way. 5) don't just order the #1 which is your baseline burger (unless you'd really rather not). Add mushrooms and/or bacon which will make a huge difference, trust me. Tldr: best affordable burgers in town. My honest review would be about 4.25/5 stars, but since I can't do half or quarter stars I'll just give them 4/5. You won't regret paying them a visit! read more

Spotted this gem driving to Metrotown and kept tabs on it ever since. As an avid fan of 50s diners around the lower mainland I was surprised I hadn't been here before! The place is super quaint, and definitely pulls you into the 50s era with its decor and music playing. Small space but it makes up for outdoor seating out front and seating in the back in cute picnic tables in the grass. Definitely a welcome change from crampy seating areas. Ordered the Hawaiian Luau burger and oh my goodness was that ever good. The ingredients were all so fresh making an explosion of flavour in your mouth. Texas BBQ was also sooo good, a good combination to combat the sweetness of the Hawaiian burger! Only downside was the buns were a tad dry, so the bottom slice fell apart rather quickly. Homemade shakes were delicious, And the fried were perfectly salted. Staff were great! Would highly recommend this place to people who like specialty burgers! read more

Love the new look, every time I come back they have something new going on with their design. The pulled pork burger is pretty good, the buns kind of dry though. The fries are great, the milkshake was OK but it was little bit small for the price. Overall, it was a decent lunch spot. The patio is fun on a nice day and the food's between OK and good depending on who's cooking. read more
