Bun Papa

"Having had these burgers and a variety of other items a few times, I feel now I can provide an honest review of the place. I will start with the pros: The hot dogs are pretty awesome. The bacon cheese dog is the bomb. Add some diced onions on there and you have a great dog. All of the workers I have had interactions with are very welcoming, and very nice. Now the cons: The burgers, kind of the whole point of the place, are pretty disappointing. The brioche buns, while pretty tasty, have been cut in such a comical way every time I've gotten a burger. Cut in a way so that the bottom bun is nearly the thickness of a piece of paper, and the top is a loaf of bread. The patties are under seasoned and dry. Only one slice of cheese on all of burgers, which definitely doesn't help. If you're going to double patty, I think it should have 2 slices of cheese. The worst part? The secret sauce. It's just worse Big Mac sauce. It's very sweet. Like disturbingly sweet. Totally ruins the burger. The seasoned waffle fries are a great idea, but I have only had them in a limp, sad condition. Horribly under cooked every time. Chick fil A waffle fries, while not even close to my favorite, absolutely wipe the floor compared to these. I've also had the poutine version, which overall was just sort of a mess. The ground beef was a pointless under seasoned filler, too few cheese curds, and too little gravy. Basically half of real poutine ingredients weren't properly represented. The crispy onions, while not traditional, are a very nice touch, I must admit. I really, really wanted to like this place, because I very much prefer to support small or local business. This place just misses the mark (I have the same opinion of the diner it is located inside of). Like many of the other sort of random "fancy" burger popups, you pay just as much as Five Guys (or more in some cases), for an undoubtedly inferior product. *Sigh* I guess I have to stick with Five Guys when I want my burger fix."

"This was my first time trying Bun Papa and it was an amazing experience. One of the employees walked with me to my car so that I wouldn't drop the bag (I was carrying my 8mo daughter). The food was delicious and much larger portions than I anticipated. I'll be visiting again soon."

"Ordered delivery. Far from the exciting pictures we saw on their website. Ordered chili on the side and got what looks to be less than a child's serving. Won't be ordering from here again."
