Burlington Charcoal Pit

Stopped in here after a taxing Saturday afternoon at Ikea. Best decision ever! I had the veggie burger combo. My other half had the chicken souvlaki on a roll. We both appreciated the fresh cut fries. The option of ketchup and two types of vinegar was an added bonus. My veggie burger was tasty, perfectly cooked, and on a great sized roll. I loved all the options for toppings and sauces. So much so that I had to choose everything except the mayo! The special onion topping they had really added that something special! My other half said «it was good simple food.» The staff was super friendly and served with a smile. Something we really needed coming from Ikea. Next time we’re in the area this will definately be on our itinerary. Thank you for a good meal for not too much money! Our bellies appreciate you!

Forget those trendy chain burger places popping up the Charcoal Pit is the real deal for burgers. Thick juicy patties and fresh cut fries. Great onion rings. The place has been there for decades and still pumps out a great burger. Worth a visit when in Burlington.

All I can say about this location is that it is an average place to eat, it is however open into the early hours of the morning so if you ever need acceptable food at 3AM to help your Uncle move out of his house last minute than you’ll probably find yourself here eventually.

I ordered a gyro and it costs 6.50. The bread was too small the toppings fell out… It was nothing like the ones I had in Greece… did not include fries as part of topic choice, the meat was very processed and artificial tasting.
The owner made arrogant remarks and I ate only ¹⁄₅ of my gyro and threw it away…
I normally don’t write reviews… But I don’t want other people to waste their appetite money or time…
Highly recommend NOT coming here!!!

Located right in downtown Burlington, this old school greek joint has been here for years along with its charm. Being in this area late at night and craving a burger, I knew this place had at least something to offer me.
As soon as you walk in you notice the awkward seating that’s in a backwards L shape. But no Probs because you’re coming here for the food right. I was going to try their souvaki dinner but I wasn’t that hungry, so I got the banquet burger with cheese and back bacon also with a poutine. Take in mind whatever you order here will come in a HUGE portion. My burger was as big as my face, the patty tasted fresh and juicy. It wasnt the best iv had but it was great.

This place is pretty decent, I’ve gotten a burger from here that was good, not great, but I love that you can ask for tzatziki in it for a Greek twist. I’ve also tried their gyro which is alright, but nothing resembling an authentic Greek gyro. Alright place for a bite to eat, especially of you’re hungry in the early hours of the morning (as it’s open pretty late), but other than that, nothing special.
