Stooley's offers nine variations of the same beef burger, plus a salmon burger and veggie patty substitutes. All beef patties are 1/3 lb - or 5.333 oz for those of us imperial unit-challenged - which makes it kinda on the small size. Additionally, it comes on a bun that's too big and on an enormous plate that really dwarfs the whole meal. But, I waddled out of there so there must have been some optical trickery at work.
The burgers are quite good. Even the plain 'Cafe Burger' is seasoned with some kind of dry-rub marinade and everything was well cooked. The cheese was processed, which I didn't mind, and the kaiser-style bun was fluffy and held together well.
I had the Cheddar Burger, while my DH had the house favourite Western Burger, which it seems has little to do with the omelet and more to do with the geographical location. The Western Burger is topped with BBQ sauce, cheddar, bacon, and several onion rings. I'll admit, I am neither a fan of BBQ sauce nor onion rings, but this was a tasty burger.
But those of you who have been to Stooley's know that the real reason you go to Stooley's is for the fries. The thick, waffle-cut, crispy-fluffy fries, seasoned with what can best be described as chicken soup mix. Each burger is served with a small mountain of them, and if you can't finish them yourself (unlikely), the other people at your table will be happy to help.
Other burger offerings include the Italian Burger (tomato sauce and mozza), the T-U-Wanna Burger (salsa, cheddar & jalepenos), the Cajun Burger (a spicier dry-rub), the Bacon Mushroom, and the Double Western Wammy. Prices range from $7.99 to $10.99 with extra toppings for $1.25. Wednesday nights burgers are all $6.99 with the purchase of a pitcher of Steam Whistle.3 out of 5 pickles.
