Local burger chain with two locations - this is their one in Halifax (other is by Woodside ferry terminal in Dartmouth) Came for breakfast a couple of times - hard to beat the breakfast sandwich and coffee for four dollars these days. Can get a standard breakfast for five dollars. Found the sandwich quite tasty although a bit greasy. The coffee was so so. Will need to come back and try the burgers at some point which is their main gig! read more

Krave Burger - Fast Food Near Me - Halifax, Nova Scotia

Ordered original combo for takeout. Literally everyone after me got there food before I did. When I opened the bag at work there were no fries with the combo and the burger had a crappy dressing that I didn't order ... And it was lukewarm at best. Will never go back read more

Always check your bag when you order from this location. I've been here a handful of times and they've messed up my order a dozen times. If you spend extra money on premium toppings on an already expensive burger place, opening your bag and seeing a plain burger makes it even more disappointing. The mcdonalds across the street is more reliable tbh read more

A recently opened burger joint on SGR, Krave is nicely filling the downtown gap left by the exit of The Works. McDonald's can't be the Spring Garden burger place, it just can't. It's got a fast food-ish interior, but more modern and less corporate feeling. The bold red, white and black palate makes for an exportable brand, mind you. Bar seating close to the doors and those seats and tables by the walls have convenient USB plugs for your electronic device charging needs. Kudos. A large menu on the wall by the cash registers has several burgers, hot dogs and sides, as well as a list of items for a make-your-own burger. They also have a liquor license, so if you're not heading into work like I was, you can get some beer or boozey milkshakes with your meal. Which you probably should. I wanted to keep it simple to get a baseline of what their burgers were like and yet not completely over eat before my night shift, so I went with the bacon cheeseburger combo, but resisted the temptation of their sides other than the fries which came with my combo. Cup in hand, I was glad to see they had ginger ale on tap, a rarity at these sort of places. Minutes before the Parade of Lights, the place was bustling with hungry people and those here for the free hot chocolate. Luckily I was able to grab a small two-person table so that I had room for my work baggage, but wasn't putting out too many people from a seat. It was a little bit of a wait, perhaps seeming longer since I was by myself, but as soon as I was wondering what was up, I had my tray of burger and fries in front of me. Krave's food is presented simply in the old school fast food joint fashion, in open paper wrappers showing off a damn good looking burger. One of their house-ground patties topped with melted cheddar, a few slices of their shoulder bacon, and the usual vegetable suspects, it was a sight for hungry eyes. The first bite matched the taste with the looks; it was a very good burger. The beef had great flavour and a nice texture to it; not too loose and crumbly, but not such a fine grind and compressed that it's sausage-like. The shoulder bacon had a slightly different flavour than any belly bacon I've ever had, and it added a nice salty and smoky hit to each bite. The bun held it all together nicely without being so thick that it was a distraction or hard to chew through. Pretty much a perfectly executed burger. The fries weren't quite at the level of the burger unfortunately, although I feel like they easily could have been. Skin on, and probably double fried, mine were a bit cold and tough, suggesting that they were sitting around waiting for my burger to come off the grill. It was an exceptionally busy night for them, but consistency is a hallmark of the greats, or those aspiring to that level. The meal was the ideal size, filling my empty belly but not so much that I'd be wanting a nap right after I got to work. Service was friendly throughout, and smiling faces were checking in on everyone to see how meals were coming along; a nice touch. Krave is putting out a great product, in a clean, crisp environment with some nice amenities, and I look forward to returning in the future for some more food and a boozey milkshake. read more

Krave Burger - Bacon cheeseburger and fries. - Fast Food Near Me - Halifax, Nova Scotia

Burger was really good. I had the steakhouse burger. However, fries were too too crisp to the point of being burnt. Their ketchup dispenser was empty and no one refilled it even after noticing it was out. read more

We have been using Skip the Dishes to do our part to support our local restaurants during the lockdown. Tonight we did our second delivery from Krave and it was so good. We both had the Smokey Goat Burger and my wife said it was the best burger she ever had! We also had fresh cut fries and onion rings. All were amazing. We ate it so quickly we didn't take a picture! So you will need to just order your own! But you will not regret it! read more

Krave was good but not great. The atmosphere is good. You order your food and they bring it to your table. I had the krave burger with fries and drink. Came to $12. They messed up my order. They asked me if I wanted everything on it, I said yes but when they brought my burger it had no pickles. The fries were delicious. I'll likely grab food elsewhere next time. read more

We went here during Burger Week and I was reminded how much I enjoy Krave. I love the gourmet burger trend - I'd be very okay if it stuck around for a while. Krave's menu is extensive, with not only burgers, but chicken, veggie options, salads...and of course milkshakes. It isn't really a burger joint without milkshakes am I right? If you're looking for a little fried goodness, I have to suggest their onion rings. Some of the best I've had in Halifax! They don't crumble apart when you pick them up and that crunch is so darn satisfying. Their Burger Week burger was the bacon jam burger which was ahhhhhhmazing. I hope they bring it back next year - or better yet, make it a permanent addition to their menu! It's the perfect mix of sweet and savoury, with just enough bacony goodness that I felt satisfied. I've also had the Krave Burger in the past, which is a perfect standard burger. Their burgers are never over cooked or dry, their buns are always toasted to perfection...Krave is such a great fast food burger joint. It's the perfect addition to Spring Garden! Oh, and they have oodles of chargers available for you to borrow if you need as well, which is fab! read more

Krave Burger is a cute little burger joint down town. It's a modern day diner with a twist! There's a plugged in area to charge your laptops, phones etc and many red and white seating. They also have glass bottles and are licensed. The menu itself is humongous and it's surprising how delicious everything is! My personal favourite is the Krave Burger because it's simple. Krave sauce is delicious. Their sweet potatoes fries are stringy and they do not skimp on their fries! Also their siracha lime sauce is out of this world! The customer service is always amazing and many of the staff have been there for awhile which makes it comforting to see a friendly face ( even though I've only been in a handful of times). I'd definitely recommend this for any foodie looking for a great place that specialized in burgers. I'll be back eventually - yum! read more

Krave Burger - Their signs which tell them whose order is whose! - Fast Food Near Me - Halifax, Nova Scotia

See all

Hello Everyone: we went to Krave Burger during vacation in Nova Scotia. Following is my review: Burger Bun - soft bun, yet they crisp it on the grill where the meat and condiments touch the bun so it does not get soggy. Meat - served well done - which is fine. Did not come across the pieces one sometimes can when the meat was not ground fine enough. Although well done, the meat was still juicy. Tomato, Lettuce and Onion - were all fine, not a big portion of any one item, just adequate. Fries - I got the french fries and they were nice and hot and the portion was large. My only comment was they could have probably fried another 30-45 seconds, the outside of the fry was not crispy, and if you are a ketchup lover, after dipping it in ketchup they were a big soggy. But, the salt and flavor of the fry were good. I recommend getting the combo with a burger - for $3.99 extra you get the fries and and a drink. The fries are enough to split for two people. Overall, for a quick burger it was a nice surprise find during our walk of the area during our vacation! read more

Krave, back at it again with the killer food/service. This was the only place that I went to (six all together) that accommodated my 'lettuce for a bun' request without batting an eye. Most places that I asked for that said they couldn't do it (which didn't make any sense to me, but I didn't bother making a stink of it). I just didn't eat the bun. Even that aside though - the staff that work there are always so unbelievably friendly and attentive. I love going in there just for that. But the great tasting food always helps. Every time I've gone in there there's a line up out the door - which clearly shows that whatever they're doing, is working. Keep it up. read more

Krave Burger - Bacon cheese burger with pulled pork poutine - Fast Food Near Me - Halifax, Nova Scotia

A Great all-local beef burger was well-appointed, cooked perfectly. Good value for a "gourmet" burger. Poutine was a great side with a glass of local Propeller IPA beer for an instant combo meal. I would definitely return to try one of their other signature burgers. read more

We visited Krave Burger on a Saturday evening and the service was relatively quick and efficient. Customers have to first pay at the counter before getting a number, finding a seat, and waiting for their food to be served. I ordered the Krave Burger combo which came with a drink and fries and my partner ordered the Krave Dog with extra bacon. The Krave Burger came with a beef patty, lettuce, tomato, and pickles and although all the ingredients combined to make a really tasty burger, it was just way too greasy. I had grease dripping out of the bag as I took my first bite. The sausage in the crave dog was very juicy, but if it wasn't for the extra bacon we ordered, it wouldn't have come with any toppings. The fries on the other hand were golden and crispy and just right. We would come back once in a while as it's in a convenient location and the price is fair. read more

Krave Burger - Krave Burger Combo - Fast Food Near Me - Halifax, Nova Scotia

Horrible food. Mushy white buns that stick to the roof of your mouth, caprese chicken burger was super thin, could hardly taste the balsamic. Bacon couldn't be tasted on another one. Sweet potato fries were super soggy, dripping in oil and over salted. Never again. read more

Simply the best. Best beef, fries and shakes anywhere in the city! When I get a Kraving, I know Krave will satisfy!

Good food - Great if it was $2 less cause that's its worth. Overview Krave Burger is just one of those places where you know it's slightly better than McDonalds but not great enough to charge you $15 for a meal. Burger Week Their Burger Week burger was embarrassing. It was just a burger. It was a bit better than a fast food burger, but by maybe 10%? It's Burger Week. You need to step it up. This was the biggest failed burger I had. Non-Burger Week The menu is impressive and I do love the variety of burgers. Their fries, although probably all frozen, still taste great. BUT their prices are that of a restaurant. Would I choose Krave over say Jack Astors? Not at all. Customer Service 100% They have always been great. They are fast, efficient and helpful. Atmosphere / Environment In-between Fast food and restaurant. Kind of like an updated version of a dinner. It's nice and somewhat welcoming. Conclusion I won't go here unless I have to because I can't fathom spending what it costs to eat here when I can sit down at any number of the restaurants in the area, have a more comfortable experience, and pay the exact same price. read more

First time to #kraveit and so ordered the basic burger and sweet potato fries. The burger was PERFECT- super yummy, cooked to perfection, not greasy and with a nice toasted bun. Highly recommended and would definitely go back. My husband had the regular fries, and both our fries were way too salty. Less salt please, Krave! Our server said he would have replaced them if we had told him. This was the second time there for my hubby and same thing last time he was there. The place is bright and clean and service was great. I would prefer separate male and female bathrooms, but that is a minor point. read more

If you're in the mood for a quick and affordable burger, it's a significantly better alternative than the McDonald's nearby. The burgers don't have that fast food taste and are probably healthi(er). My only beef with it is that the burgers are always swimming in grease, but still end up tasting mild sometimes. read more

I am a big burger fan and try to go to as many places as I can. This is definitely one of my favourites for a number of reasons: 1. The size is appropriate. You walk away full but not stuffed beyond belief. Too many burger joints focus on size not quality. 2. The range of choices is plentiful but not overwhelming. 3. The space is clean and bright with the major bonus of USB charging stations for cell phones at every seat. 4. They have beer on tap. Burgers, beer and great side dishes make this spot a must try for burger lovers. read more

Went to Krave a few days back and have nothing but good things to say. Both myself and my wife were able to get a great meal at a great price. The mac and cheese was one of my favorite items on the menu and if you like goat cheese -- I recommend the "Smoking Goat" - what a fantastic creation! My Wife had the Spinach Salad -- and to my surprise it came with two DEVILED EGGS...WOW what a treat - so fellas -- make sure you remember to point her to the spinach salad so you can steal an egg or two lol The employees were friendly the place is nice -- I could see myself taking my laptop and working there for the afternoon. The USB ports at every table were helpful (My phone was dead and they even had several different chargers to use as loaners) I would say the value for dollar is important and you will be more than full with great food for $15 Krave is definitely the nicest Burger Joint in Halifax -- and without a doubt has the best food of all the "gourmet burger" places in our city!! read more

Of all of the burger restaurants in Halifax, Krave is by far my favourite! When my partner (a vegetarian) & I are in the Spring Garden area, we usually stop in for a meal and they never disappoint! It's the type of place where you order & pay for your gourmet burger at the counter when you first walk in, then take your drinks (even a beer!) & number card and go sit at a table. They'll bring you out your delicious meals as soon as they're ready. You can even watch the cooks through a cut-out making the meals if you like. Tables along the wall have a spot to plug your chargers in and they even had them to lend for different devices when I needed one once! WiFi is available. Krave has gender-neutral single-stall bathrooms, which I love, though I'm not the biggest fan of the full-length mirrors on the door. read more

Really nice meal. The gourmet burger thing has been popular around the world, but my lunch here this week was one of the tastiest. Big choice of burgers, and not just like everywhere else. Mine had smoked bacon and a slice of goat cheese, very tangy, and it worked well with the beef patty. The fries were nice too. Service was sharp and fast, they bring the meal to your table, and they clean up after you too. I liked the space, too: fast-food, but a little nicer than most. Like, premium fast-food. And they're licensed! If you're OK with leaving your ID they'll give you a USB charging cable for your phone while you eat. read more

While they only offer one vegan burger on the menu, it's super nice they offer at least that. I love the modern feel of the joint with the red and white decor. The girl working was super friendly and helpful. You do have to mention you want no butter on the bun to make it vegan but apparently they even have a button for that on the register so it's super convenient, no questions asked. The burger has a south western kind feel with corn, black beans, sweet potatoes and appropriate spices. I enjoyed it but loved the fries even more. Fresh cut fries cooked to perfection. Even as a vegan you can get fast food in Halifax, that always makes a girl happy. read more

So I haven't yelped about anything for a few years now. In fact I had to create a whole new Yelp profile, just for this! Not that I haven't been eating (as if!) but I guess I just lacked inspiration. Until now. Until...the Krave Burger. Oh my. My son and I were walking down Spring Garden a few weeks back and stumbled upon this gem. The entrance is kind of hidden so you need to look for it, but do that. You'll be glad you did. First off, great environment. Simple, modern, bright and clean. There are even flat screen TVs (if you fancy some entertainment while you wait for your scrumptious burger), AND, wait for it.....they're licensed! Service was fantastic. Super attentive server and Krave ambassador, AJ, was delightful! I wanted to hug him but I controlled myself. Anyway, most important....the food is amazing! Fresh locally sourced beef made for the most delicious and succulent burger. There were so many tempting choices but I went "Classic" to start. A wise choice. I love you, Ace Burger, but this was cray. Even the home cut fries were incredible. And my son said his strawberry milkshake was the best he ever had! I wouldn't know because he drank it all, but I believe it! It's my birthday this weekend and of all the places I could choose to eat, this is where I want to go. So, AJ....will see you shortly. Jumpy claps! read more

This one is clean, with lots of TV's, big and small, near and far from your table. Oh and the tables have lots of USB charging ports for your devices to fill up as you do ;) The food was great. Poutine side....Crispy fries, with a fresh cheese curd and not too salty gravy. The barnyard burger was so good, I can't imagine what could be better on the menu. Also nice cold beer and decent service. I'd go back for sure. read more

Awesome! I was actually surprised by the experience here. My wife and I went in on a Saturday evening to find it basically empty. The burger tasted very fresh and was not very greasy like many other places. The sweet potato fries and onion rings were also great. It is also pretty awesome they have goat cheese for milk intolerants and a unique selection of burgers. A little pricy but totally worth the money. read more

I was downtown for the Open City weekend, and my girlfriend really wanted to try Krave's offering as we came out of the ATM on SGR. I told her I wouldn't dare pay for it after the last time I went here and sure enough, it was extremely disappointing. 5$ for about 2 thin strips of insipid Mr. Donair on two burger bun bottoms with flavourless cheese. The best thing here was the donair sauce. Krave continues to unimpress. read more

Great place to pick up a quick burger and a beer. Staff definitely is a ten out of ten, very attentive and friendly. Phone plug ins are a huge plus, definitely recommend keeping in mind it has more of a fast food feel than a cozy sit down date feel. read more

This is one of the best Burger Places in Halifax, hands down. I've been here about 3 times and I've yet to be disappointed. On my latest trip, I ordered the Bacon and Cheese Burger with a "(Very)Strawberry" Milkshake. This was during a Power Outage and the payment system was down, so they let me order my food and have a seat while they worked out the problem. The Burger, although greasy was delicious. The Beef was well cooked, but not overly so, The cheese was slightly melted and the bacon was well cooked as well. The veggie topping where fresh, crisp and flavorful The shake was also very good.Not a lot of filler and the flavor was good. Service was prompt and friendly. I can't recommend Krave Burger enough. If your looking for a good burger in the South End, this should be your first stop. read more

Great burger, amazing cheap and affordable. Cool staff. Sucks u have to pay for sauce tho...

As someone who suffers from an extreme egg allergy, restaurant experiences have been all over the map to say the least. From staff not taking my allergy seriously or making me feel like a horrible burden to their restaurant, or telling me there's no eggs in something and yet there actually is, or my personal FAVORITE which is "maybe you shouldn't eat here" instead of even attempting to see if there are ways to accommodate me, let's just say I've experienced it all. This has lead me to have some pretty bad anxiety around eating at other people's houses (I've had some pretty bad reactions to food that was swore to have no eggs in) and any restaurant that I can't access a menu previously too (I've literally left restaurants in tears). Every now and again though, you find yourself somewhere that turns out to be exceptional and gives you just a little bit of hope that your life does matter. Tonight at Krave Burger, the staff were exceptionally friendly, resourceful, accommodating of my allergy, and they even took it upon themselves to warn me about foods that contained eggs that I hadn't even thought of. I felt not only safe and tolerated, but appreciated. It was an overall great experience and somewhere that I will be adding to my short list of comfortable restaurants. My only real complaint is that a burger alone no meal) was $7-$9 which made me expect a pretty big burger but it was rather small (comparable to the size of a McDonald's burger vs a Boston pizza or restaurant burger) for the price. The fries and PPP added were cheap and made the burger meal comparable in price to most other places it was just smaller than the norm. But the taste of everything was great and the service was unreal! read more

Finally had a chance to check out Krave burger today. I got the bacon cheese burger with poutine and the very (straw)berry milkshake. First off I always get milkshakes when I have the chance and this was one of if not the best I've ever had, certainly the best that I've had in recent memory. The poutine was also excellent with a solid ratio of all the key ingredient. The burger was also exemplary. All and all definitely the gourmet burger place I would recommend most highly of the several in HRM. read more

First let me say it was Mike's idea to come here. :-D Krave is just like the other "gourmet" and "specialty" burger joints: long-winded in their descriptions of their locally-sourced, no-fillered and super-duper meat, but short on taste. The resto itself looks like a fast-food version of an Apple store: very white, very pristine and very soulless. We both tried the traditional burger and fries combo. At over $20 for two combos? I was expecting something pretty good. Unfortunately it was very "meh." I like the portable table numbering system. I like the TVs showing sports (although they were all on the same station, which is not the norm). The staff were all very friendly and we were given a sample of chocolate shake. I like that we can leave the trays on the tables rather than having to sort everything in the different garbage/recycling containers. But the food wasn't that great. The burgers had little flavour and were quite small for the price. The fries were overcooked and tough. Mike is much more forgiving than me when it comes to eating out, and even he was disappointed. Plus the washrooms aren't clean, or they weren't when I tried to use them. I'm sure I've said this before, but if I want a good burger? I'll stick with Durty Nelly's. read more

We stopped in here during Open City and were lucky enough to catch one of their last "back door takeout" meals - pulled pork mac n' cheese with crispy onions. YUM! This was enough incentive for us to venture inside to try some food too! I like the atmosphere here - it's very clean and the pop of red keeps the modern furniture/look fun. There are tv's showing various sports matches, which I don't really care about (and it seems to me a bit generic, perhaps), but I can appreciate the fact that they want to give this place more of the cozy, gathering place feeling of a bar. It's smart to give it more of a "hang-out" vibe, compared to the (many) other burger places around town. I would come hang out here! USB ports at the tables so you can charge your devices? Genius! I had the Bork Burger with onion rings and it was all delicious. I really liked the bun - definitely not your run-of-the-mill frozen, grocery store bun here, which was refreshing. The service was also really good - the staff is friendly and attentive. The prices are a tad high but I don't mind paying a bit more for better quality ingredients and service (this is NOT McDonald's, people). All in all, I enjoyed my Krave burger experience and will be back! read more
