Sometimes the best burgers are served in the most unexpected places. Willy’s is a popular choice for the late night, poutine-craving crowd on their way home from the bar, but most people don’t know that the takeout-only restaurant serves a delicious burger. The burgers offered at Willy’s sidewalk window feature classic toppings such as lettuce, tomato, pickles, fried onions and mushrooms. Hearty and filling, they’re just $6 (plus another $1 each for cheese and/or bacon).
When poutine is the topic, Willy’s is frequently the first place locals think of. Located on Blowers Street, just down from the popular Pizza Corner, it is not uncommon to see a long late-night lineup of folks at its sidewalk order window, looking to get their late-night poutine fix. The poutine deserves its fame, as it’s truly delicious. The fresh-cut fries taste great, and it all comes together beautifully with generous helpings of gravy and cheese curds. Willy’s additional poutine toppings include pulled pork and house-made stuffing. Vegetarian gravy is an option for non-meat eaters.
