Was here with my friends yesterday for a quick snack .If you are looking for a quick afternoon snack this place does the trick, For a low price you can get huge portion of fries. It is not gourmet food but its good comfort food. So if you want that highly recommend it. Ill be back if i am in the area and i want some tasty fries or onion rings.

I always passed this place and never tried it, as I always put it in my bucket list. Yesterday I went there in late evening at 9pm and was the only car. I asked the young kid with lots of ink, on what the most common burger, he recommended the Banquet Burger, as it’s the most ordered item.
It came up to $ 9.75 with 2 cans of Coke, including tax.
The patties were undercooked, the burger was just all over the place; I kid you guys not it was the WORST burger ever. The young kid with tattoos doesn’t even wear plastic gloves, when handling the burger, the West Indian cook making the fries is wiping his nose, very unsanitary, disgusting, go if you want food poisoning, in which today I took the day off.

If you’re craving for a tasteful burger (chicken or beef) then you should try this place. It’s a take-out cash ONLY place but I must say it has some of the best burgers in Brampton. They also have poutine, fish and chips which is just good. Must try the pulled pork sandwich and the cheeseburger with bacon.

If you know Brampton, sonny’s is iconic. Long time resident. Even went through a major fire and returned. Good burgers and fries.

This Brampton tradition is famous for one thing: fries and gravy! Of course I also order a double burger with cheese and LOAD it with fried onions — something not often found at most burger joints.
But the fries, and particularly the gravy, is legendary. The gravy is rich and flavorful. Adding cheese gives you poutine, but personally I’d stick with just fries and gravy. The portion is generous and to take full benefit of that, order a half and half. That’s half fries, half onion rings. Get gravy on the side to douce your fries while keeping the rings clean for ketchup. That’s like having two sides with your yummy burger!

This place is shit! Chicken has no flavour fries are soggy and the lady with the glasses that makes your burger with her bare hands and her dirty nails hates her job and is a complete bitch!!! Save your money and go next door for a toonie Tuesday!

Food match the price. Nothing fancy but does the job… beats the fast food joints and for sure five guys. With the try, especially as a late night option. The fried sides are good. The patties are basic and nothing to rave about.

Look here’s the deal
It is called a greasy spoon for a reason
Gloves? Go back to your chains. Sonny’s is an established business and they have been around longer than you’ve been alive.
This isn’t cuisine it’s moderately good food served in big portions for Drunk people. It’s also somewhere I would take my nephew for a drive in experience.
Yeah it’s not in a nice part of town but the guys behind the counter are real blue collar guys and if you’re not so judgmental you can see they work hard for honest pay.
You want a fancy burger go somewhere else. You want nostalgia and a good greasy spoon make this your place.
Banquet onion rings fries and milkshakes.
Hot dogs are great and the fried onions are tasty. But IT IS NOT GOURMET and that’s just fine with me.
Stay gold Sonny’s and throw out the hipsters

Fave joint in Brampton. Amazing sober and drunk food. Staff has been nothing but nice to me every time I’ve gone.
I don’t live in Brampton anymore, and I miss this place dearly :(

I really like Sonny’s! Been a family fav for a while (even the location in Waterloo) and Sonny’s does not disappoint if you want late night food. They are a no frills burger joint that also does roast beef sandwiches, fish, as well as souvlaki. I’ve only ever had the burgers here because you can’t go wrong with their generously sized charcoal fired burger. When you need a late night bite that will satisfy that burger craving, don’t discount Sonny’s!

Did not expect to actually like this place, I figured because it was inexpensive, the food quality would reflect that… I was pleasantly surprised. It’s a true gem with great food and a casual atmosphere. Staff are very pleasant and wonderful people. Great experience overall, I highly recommend the banquet burger.

I luckily stumbled upon this place while desperately trying to find something to eat at 2am (I know). I was very surprised to see something opened till so late; nevertheless I went in.
Upon walking in I noticed the place did look a little dated, but who cares; as long as the food isn’t. I ordered a standard Cheese Burger with Fries, I paid under $ 10 and I was very satisfied. The burgers are grilled fresh upon order so they do take some time to cook. Condiment selection is slightly odd (They don’t have any lettuce, in place of it is sautéed onions). Having said that I topped my burger with the onions any mayo. The burger itself was pretty nice, the onions did a good job as the added a slight saltiness to the burger but it wasn’t overbearing. The fries were nice and crispy and didn’t seem too oily. As for service, without saying too much; it could be better.

Meat to bread ratio for the cheese burger is not good at all, bun is too thick for that thin burger. Great taste but wasn’t please with that. On another note the POUTINE is a must try! Super tasty and can feed 2 ppl easily

They’re open really, really late. Having been a suburbanite my entire life, I can really appreciate when restaurants have late hours.
I guess I was really lucky to have beaten the 3:30am rush… Cause strangely, that’s the time that this tiny takeout fast food joint started to get packed (they close at 4).
I had the banquet burger (hamburger with cheese and bacon) and a poutine. This was pretty standard late night diner food, and it was satisfying. The burger was a generous size for the $ 5 I paid, and the poutine, while it wasn’t the traditional style with cheese curds, was still delicious.
I mean, I didn’t come here with expectations of a life-changing experience — just solid late night fast food. That’s definitely what I got, and I’m happy with the result.

The employees are mostly ass holes. Especially the tall guy that works nights with the tattoos. But who cares. It’s a fast food joint. They arent working for tips. They make awesome food that’s cheap and doesn’t make me feel disgusting like when I get drive thru at a chain place. That’s all that matters.
I can watch them cook my food to order whether I got a double cheeseburger or was feeling healthy and ordered a chicken souvlaki. Wish they had more topping options than lettuce tomato pickle onion mustard and BBQ sauce. Would it kill them to open a can of mushrooms?
seriously. Go. The burgers are worth more than the $ 4.50 they cost for the taste and size of them.

Fresh cut fries! Poutine is delicious. I’ll never go for NYF again. I went back 3 days in a row for the poutine. For less than $ 6, it is sooo worth it. The portion is ridiculous! Tried the onions rings, they were ok. The staff is nice and welcoming.

used to love coming here for late night snacks until the day I asked for lettuce on my burger. The answer I received was «THIS IS NOT A SALAD BAR». My response was «IM SORRY BUT EVERY BURGER JOINT IN THE WORLD HAD LETTUCE AT THEIR RESTAURANTS» None the less I ate my burger with out lettuce. The food is not bad especially if you are looking for late night eats but WARNING DO NOT ASK FOR LETTUCE you might get kicked out.
The attitude that comes from this places forces me to give 1 star. If it wasn’t for the attitude I give it 3 to 4 stars.

A solid option to fill a burger craving if in the area. However, in the area there is not much competition. They do good for what they are but not on the same level as places like Johnny’s or Apache.
Also, cash only… do have a bank machine onsite which helps.
