Damn good burger. Yes it’s excessively greasy, the type of savoury indulgence permissible once a blue moon. Staff are knowledgeable with ingredients questions and there’s gluten-free available. Boss is a cool guy, workers are engaging, washroom’s clean with a fresh contemporary design.

My husband and I got two very GREASY burgers! If you are looking for clogged arteries, this would definitely be the place. No one is expecting a healthy meal from this restaurant, however, the grease was extremely excessive.

I think I’ve discovered my new favourite burger in the city. It’s called The Depressed Cow. Shaved onions pressed into two patties then fried crispy. Drowned in yellow mustard and juicy dill pickles. This place has some pretty amazing burger concoctions. Coronary issues? Steer clear! The dessert menu looks incredible but I never have room. Onion rings could use a reinvention. Nothing special. I want to eat a burger here every week.

So went with the family and blew $ 70 for three burgers, two loaded fries, onion rings, a fountain drink, milk shake and Nutella lollipops. Restaurant was nice and open and very clean! Service was great! No attitude! I had the frustrated cow burger! Yummy! Blue cheese, caramelized onions, and burger done medium… insert emoji of smiley-face drool here! My husband had the the big chuck, not worth writing home about, he made the mistake of ordering it medium rare, so he was a bit worried afterwards The kids shared a Jr cheeseburger(both were still hungry, didn’t think they would like it) but devoured it Shared the creamy feta fries, too oily with the dressing Shared the poutine fries, the gravy was way too salty Shared the onions and was finished off! nice and crispy! Husband had the bacon, fudge, sea salt milkshake! Awesome! Shared the Nutella pops, they were ok but not worth it. Not worth $ 70 but will be back for the frustrated cow and tasting the kinds different milk shakes and desserts!

Some of most artery clogging delicious burgers in Toronto can be found at Holy chuck. Everything on the menu packs a flavor punch with every bite and leave you wanting more. Be warned that you’ll need to run for about 4 days to burger off all those calories but it’s so worth it!

My 1st impression, VERY Clean restaurant. So many burger choices but I went with the«Grind&Shine» burger w/the Holy Chuck Fries. Girl at the counter was very accommodating and cute. The ONLY bad thing for me was the fries. TO much chili for the fries and not enough fries for the chili. ALSO… I had to drive from Pickering to this location(40mins). A Pickering location needs to be a PRIORITY. Other than that I really like it. I would definitely order from here again. 3⁄5 stars for me, have to take –1 star for travel.

I went to the Woodbridge location the other day I was very disappointed the burgers are not like the pictures they post It cost $ 20 for The Farmers Burger and fries and a drink what a ripoff I will never go back

Best burger I’ve tasted in the GTA. Freshly ground meat cooked to your preference is a must for a decent burger. Reminds me of a Shake Shack burger in NYC.

This place is nuts! I brought my burger aficionado friend here as a treat and the verdict was«heavenly.» The only thing I wish I had realized was that my burger«the smokey cow» didn’t come with any sauce. The meat and toppings were perfect, I just wish I had a little something extra on top. The meat was cooked to medium, which was amazing! The sides were what made this place perfect though. I am super picky about my fries, and the fries here were perfection. Loved the variety of fountain drinks and desserts. We had the Nutella lollipops. After watching a couple people go by with shakes, we decided to share a Nutella shake for the road… People! Best milkshake I have ever had in my whole life! It was like angel tears and unicorn dust and magical. I would drive to Woodbridge just for this shake. Amazing. The place is expensive, that is true. But I feel like if it were any cheaper they probably wouldn’t be able to handle the volume of business they would get, and quality would go down, and what would the point of that be? Besides, everything here has like a million calories I’m sure, so making this an occasional splurge is probably for the best. Anyways I can’t wait to bring my Dad and my sister and my other friends here, and you should try it too!

Burgers are exactly what you want in a burger. Always juicy and perfectly cooked! And you can have it medium. There is no other way to eat a burger! Sides like poutine are huge, so best to share

Menu board is displayed above the cash. Didn’t have time to go over everything and felt rushed by the cashier. She keep talking to me while I was trying to figure out what I wanted. There was too many specialty burgers with too many descriptions. A little annoyed, I ordered what was familiar to me. For a burger joint they have such small burgers. Ground beef texture with no binding or hold which breaks apart and gets the bun soggy. It’s sort of a mix of In ‘n Out and Burgers Priest. I ordered the signature Holy Chucks burger. She asked if I wanted it medium to medium well, like it is suppose to be cooked only at those choices. I find that ground beef should be cooked well done but decided she must know better and chose medium well. It was a soggy mess with no texture. Not too impressed with all the juices from the ground beef running down my arm and the puddle of red juice on the tray. Portion size for the specialty fries are definitely for sharing. The fries are not the greatest but acceptable. I got the poutine and they were too salty and do not know why they sprinkled parsley all over. It did not elevate the poutine in any way. It was way too much for one and wished that the cashier let me know that it was a big portion. And I hate circle metal trays where the bottoms tends to warp and spins around while trying to eat. Got a peanut butter jelly shake, which was the best thing out of my entire meal. Only complaint is, where’s the jelly? Is the sweet taste suppose be the jelly part? It was all peanut butter. Price for the meal was way over priced($ 25) but made up for the portion size of the fries. All in all, didn’t meet up to the hype. Probably will never go to another Holy Chucks.

This was much better than my burger at Burger’s Priest. Sunday eve around 5p my brother went to see Holy Chuck. We plan on visiting all the religiously themed burger joints in the area. It just a thing were doing this winter. Bang for Buck — yes. Taste — burger’s were made quickly but fresh, fries were nicely crisp with seasonings. I had the Holy Chuck. It has two beef patties I was afraid(from the pictures) would be too much but it was filling. Just enough. The onions on mine were my only complaint, they tasted and felt as if they’d been cooked/sauteed hours ago in a huge vat. They were much cooler than the temp of my burger. I would be curious to see their beef patties pre cooking, seemed more like a McDonald’s patty(in texture) than a ‘burger specializing’ joint. Atmosphere — Bright airy, has two TVs. Bathrooms were a pleasant surprise. Not only clean but tastefully done and decorated. Biggest disappointed décor wise for me was the chairs for the tables, they were quite short to eat at the table and were really outdoor chairs(hard metal) but the outside perimeter was lined with booth seating that was more physically comfortable and better height. Service — it was empty when we walked in so we were well welcomed and they were friendly and helpful to us first timers facing the vast menu I’m sure both my brother and I will be back.

Beyond delicious! From the fresh ground chuck that they grind daily, or fresh cut fries that are cooked to perfection — crispy not greasy, Holy Chuck never takes a short cut when it comes to their quality of food. If you haven’t tried them then you’re surely missing out! And once you do indulge in their one of a kind burgers you’ll be sure to become a regulate! Thank you Holy Chuck for your amazing and delicious food!

Only come here if you’re ready to dish out $ 50 dollars for two people and that’s sharing a plate of fries and drink. I was sorely disappointed when I got my order(You Fat Pig) I expected greatness but all I got was something that definitely did not taste like bacon. It actually tasted, looked and felt like raw ground pig. Will definitely not order that again. My gf enjoyed her cheese burger, but everything is very expensive for a burger joint. They can fix this problem by giving side fries for every burger order but they will definitely not do that, you’re better off going to Five Guys since it’s just down the street.

This place will be the death of me… but in a good way, if that’s possible? I’ve had to resort to sunglasses and a black wig to disguise the amount of times I have come here — it’s probably abnormal. It’s gotten so bad that when the staff see me they know to get ready to make me the best darndest shake on the menu lol. Yesterday they suggested the fresh lime. At this point, I’ve become desensitized to the bat-crazy names and ideas they have on their menu(foie gras and truffle shake anyone?). Regardless of what the name is, you can be confident that you’re gonna get something good in your mouth ;) Since I finally got a chance to try their burger and fries and not just those sexy shakes, I can say this is a unique and well-rounded burger joint. Fries — they’re a good contender to the beast that is mcdick fries. But better, cuz you know, they’re actually cooked on site from like scratch n potatoes n stuff ;) The junior holy chuck was tender, very juicy and generously seasoned. As promised, there’s no need for extra toppings and I enjoyed my perfect little burger with caramelized onions and bacon(hold the cheese). Not a fan of cheese, I know I may lose Unilocal points for that but I still know a good burger when I taste one, gosh darnit! Even better is that the staff are on point and make you feel totally welcome. As for atmosphere, it’s a lot ‘laidback burger diner’ mixed with a splash of decorative retro eye candy, a TV, and topped off with spacious comfortable seating to spread out in. Love it. Don’t wait any longer to experience the King and Queen-worthy feast that awaits you here. Come forth to Holy chuck –the emperor of all burger joints, powerful redeemer of le junk food — and humbly bow the f down in respect!

So I have to go back on my first review giving them 3 stars. After my long time search for good burgers it just seems that I always end up coming back here and enjoying their burgers very much. The wait times are a lot quicker now and seeing some of the prices everywhere else they seem to be right in line. I would rather pay more for quality.

The best burgers I’ve ever had If you have money to spend, want a greasy full of flavor burger, milk shakes to die for… this is honestly the place. Whenever I go I always spent $ 25. A burger avg is about 12.99 a special fry platter 5.99 and a milkshake and drink. I tend to experience the whole experience at this place because I go here once in every couple of months but when I do I go all out. You can see the staff always hard at work. They communicate with each other and they cook the burgers to perfection! 5⁄5

I am such a huge fan of lamb meat but that all depends on hows its cooked, seasoning and all. I have to say the best lamb burger Ive had! I got the Greek Bahahastard and it was delicious! I really like the fact that they asked you how you want it served because personally I prefer my burgers medium to medium rare. Not much a fan of their specialty fries tho, and quite expensive too. I wouldnt call it a cheap date.

There are burgers and there are meat pucks. Holy Chuck is not a puck. Pucks suck, so don’t be a schmuck and get stuck with burgers that taste like the butt of a duck. Others have toppings that look like muck,(and Weber’s has a sauce called«Guk») so spend the extra buck, so you don’t press your luck. Get in your truck and get to Holy Chuck! With 90% of the creations at Holy Chuck pricing from $ 10 to $ 30, you NEED to come here at least once in your life. There is a lot of pure, freshly ground beef involved, but also lamb, bacon patties, and portabellos. Burgers have amusing names to match the unbelievable concoctions, but even the sides are unique. Panko crusted onion rings? Nutella fries? And a Bacon, Fudge and Sea Salt milkshake! Ok, so I put the lid on my unfinished bottle of iced tea and went up for the shake. With a crispy bacon strip garnish and crumbled bacon to the last draw on the straw, I could feel my arteries harden. Like bubble tea with pearls, there is a lot of chewing required to get through this milkshake. There is nothing on the menu that is considered«healthy» unless you compare fresh ground meat to the frozen mystery meat at other puck slinger joints. Then you can feel righteous about your burger choice. Even if your selection happens to be 6 patties high with 3 grilled cheese sandwiches as buns. The marketing is built around the inferences that occur with the word«chuck» so young boys will snicker and giggle. I would continue, but I need more family friendly words that rhyme with«chuck»…

I’ve heard so many great things about Holy Chuck and finally had a chance to try out their burger this past weekend. The Vaughan location is great for those who drive as there’s plenty of parking spaces in the big lot they share with KFC/Taco Bell. Just like their neighbors, Holy Chuck offers late night drive thru for the lazy bums who’d like to stay inside their warm cars. I must have stared at their extensive menu for at least ten minutes before being able to decide what I wanted to order. I ended up getting their specialty — Holy Chuck burger. I also ordered a Nutella & Salted Caramel milk shake and it is AMAZING! I’ll be ordering this everytime now… The burger bun was lightly toasted and fluffy — the aroma of the patty(I got medium rare) was intertwined within the bun. The first bite was deliciously greasy, I’m surprised the buns did not come out drenched in grease. The patty is very fresh — I can see one of the staff members grinding a fresh batch. One item I would not order again is the Poutine. I found the fries too thin for my tastes and overly salted. The gravy was also pretty salty but they throw on a generous amount of cheese curds! I can’t see myself coming here often for artery-clogging meal but definitely will come back when I need a good ol’ greasy burger!
