The works - options galore


The Works Gourmet Burger Bistro 
BEWARE not for the undeceive burger enthusiast! With hundreds of different burger options and combinations there is something to satisfy anyone’s taste buds, however loving all things food makes the meal time decision making task a hard one.  I choose the works original best seller “Smokey Mountain” which topped my quarter pound ground beef patty with Smokey BBQ sauce, jack cheese & bacon strips. I decided the original beef patty, but they also had options like lean elk which I will be back to try for next time.  Overall first bite was unbelievable, the smokiness of the sauce and bacon made my mouth feel like it was visiting a good ol’ fashion texas style smoke house. I choose to pair this one their Amber lager “barking squirrel” the odd name surprisingly made sense after a taste.  The barking squirrel ale has a subtle peppery spiced finish, it was a perfect complement to an almost perfect lunch.  Reasonably priced at just around 25$ for a couple pints and a burg, this is a game changer for a Sunday funday.  Only downside was the ridiculous glasses they served Guelph’s finest water in, a 2L measuring cup make drinking my water sipping an awkward experience. 
 Burgs and Beers scale I’d give this a solid 4 ½ fries
