Sunshine Diner
2649 Broadway W, Vancouver, BC V6K 2G2This friendly local diner makes you feel at home as soon as you step inside. The large selection of standard burgers includes something for everyone. There are beef, chicken and specialty burgers, including the James Dean (topped with egg and sausage) and a Greek Zorba burger with tzatziki. You can’t go wrong with the old-fashioned Sunshine Burger: a 7-oz top sirloin patty grilled over charcoal.
Painted Ship The
2884 Broadway W, Vancouver, BC V6K 2G7The team at Yagger's pride themselves on serving some of the finest scratch-made burgers in Vancouver. The atmosphere is fun, friendly and bustling with young Kits residents stopping by for beers after work and to check out the latest sports action on the TVs. The Crunchified Organic Bison Burger practically jumps off the menu: a ground bison and pork patty is adorned with blue cheese, caramelized onions and hot sauce on a soft Portuguese bun.
LOCAL Public Eatery Kitsilano
2210 Cornwall Ave, Vancouver, BC V6K 1B5Combine the laid-back, cozy vibe of a neighborhood pub with high-quality service and an exhaustive menu and you'll know why Local Public Eatery has become a go-to restaurant for so many Kitsilano residents. There’s a huge selection of burgers, including the Press burger with miso mayo and the signature Local burger with mouth-watering melted cheddar and jack cheeses. Wash it down with your choice of craft beer from a selection of brews that’s updated daily.
Moderne Burger
865 Broadway W, Vancouver, BC V5Z 1J9For a top-quality straightforward burger, try this retro-style diner under the neon plan tree sign at West Broadway and Larch. This local institution serves all the diner classics: burgers, shakes, cherry soda, and French fries that are hand cut to order. Your handmade steak burger will come dressed with their house sauce and traditional toppings on a fresh-baked bun. Pile on the extras like grilled mushrooms or grilled onions. Alternatively, opt for their veggie patty, ground turkey or wild salmon fillet versions.
The Oakwood Canadian Bistro
2741 4th Avenue W, Vancouver, BC V6K 1P9The Oakwood is a favourite among Kits residents for its casual atmosphere and inventive dishes, and the huge house-made burger is a bestseller. The Burger 2.0 is topped with aged cheddar, bacon, garlic dill pickles, alfalfa and Gulf Islands dressing. We suggest you amp up your patty with a side of smoked beef brisket poutine.
Tera V Burger
2961 Broadway W, Vancouver, BC V6K 2G9More than a restaurant, a movement, they say. Tera V not only makes a delicious array of tofu and tempeh veggie burgers, but the owners are also dedicated to running a sustainable restaurant that uses recyclable, compostable material and chemicals that are natural and biodegradable. The potato and yam fries served with your burger are baked, not fried, and you can taste the freshness of the (mostly) locally sourced ingredients.
Romers Burger Bar
1873 W 4th Ave, Vancouver, BC V6J 1M4Romer’s Burger Bar uses only organic, pasture-raised beef and you can taste the difference. They serve their delicious patty on a lightly grilled brioche bun, adding another buttery layer of goodness. But it’s their creative toppings that really make the difference. How about the gorgonzola garlic sauce on the Romer’s Righteous Rib burger? Or the macho challenge of the Man’s Man burger with amber ale cheddar and smoked alder salts? For patty fanatics who are looking for plenty of options, this is arguably the best burger joint in Kits – or close to it.
