On the Bun Burgers

I’ve tried quite a few of the popular halal burger joints in the city but this is my favorite. Their Apple butter bbq sauce burger is amazing. And their lunch specials can’t be beat… approximately $ 8+tax will get you a burger fries and drink. Please don’t get rid of this special ever. The only reason I’m giving this place 4 stars is that they only accept cash. Please start accepting debit and/​or credit.

Cash Only!
This is our favourite Burger place.
Anytime and everytime we pass by the area we have to pick our favourite burgers and fries.
My husband’s a huge fan of Salisbury Burger & I enjoy the Apple Butter. We both love the Apple butter fries. Our kids enjoy their cheese burgers or beef burgers with ketchup n mayo.
It’s nothing too fancy but its the taste and variety of burgers that brings us back to the burger joint. It’s the same taste, quality, everytime and the quantity with the same level of service. The burgers are juicy, fresh, perfect buns and dressings to suit everyone’s taste buds.
Highly recommended place for fresh burgers!

Been here a couple of times now. If I’m looking for halal burger options in sauga, Id pick this over burger factory or hero. My last visit i got the Salsbury Burger — burger patty, mushrooms and gravy I choose to add mozzarella cheese on top. Love their fresh cut fries with malt… ahhh! Over all open space, fresh meat (saw them pressing the meat while I was waiting for my order) Ps its cash only! They have an ATM in the store but I recommend coming in with cash, because those charges on the independent ATMs are killer!

*NOTE: CASH ONLY*
Came here this week for lunch and had to question why I don’t come by more often! Juicy burgers and awesome fries. I had the Salisbury burger (mushrooms, sautéed onions + gravy) this visit — probably my favourite from the menu.
Customer service is great — I think I’ve seen the owner every time I’ve visited and he’s very friendly.
25% off a combo with your first Unilocal check-​in is a pretty sweet deal!
Would love to see a couple more speciality toppings (e.g. goat cheese, jalapeños).

The workers are really nice and it is a big, open restaurant with lotz of different burger flavours.
I did not enjoy the food.
The Apple butter BBQ sauce hamburger didn’t have any flavour and the fries tasted kind of bitter and earthy.
Plus he gave the girls next to me a bigger portion of fries than I got *grrrrrr.
I will not be returning.
P. s. cash only

The place needs to look better. Very low quality feel of the restaurant. Burgers are great. Only accepts cash. It’s 2016, where’s Debit and Credit.
Service is very slow as well. They need more staff. Clearly have to stop saving on labour and give better customer service.

This place was amazing! The business owner was extremely friendly and the environment was pretty good as well. More importantly, the food was delicious! I loved the portion sizes and especially the taste. I had the apple butter burger and it’s definitely worth going back to.

Good burger place overall, I recommend the poutine burger… For almost a $ 4 dollars side of cajun fries the portion is very little. They need to work on how the place looks like…

True value for money… taste definitely worth going bk for. ordered 4 burgers. Salisbury, Masala, poutine and apple butter burger… my favourite… apple butter burger… was a different experience that sweet buttery taste mixing with the sauces… great place for a home cooked burger. added benefit.halal meet.

Their food is good. But their condescending attitude is not.
Like every other establishment in this land I wanted to pay via debit. They do not accept debit but happy to point me to the ATM conveniently located inside their store. I chose to not pay $ 3 service charge and drove to the TD nearby.
When i came back 15 minutes later I was welcomed by snide remarks such as did I have to go to Jamaica to get the money. Sorry On the Bun, you’re just not ready for the customer service game yet.

On the bun
I wrote the wrong location will visit soon to update its review

This place was amazing!
Burgers were huge!
Portions were huge!
Could barely finish!
Long lineups so order everything at once or you will be stuck waiting for 15 mins until your turn again.
Get the AK47 burger!
Will return! Last visited in spring 2014

This place is amazing! Ordered the Apple Butter burger combo and it was definetley one of the best burgers I’ve ever had, it had the perfect amount of kick. The burger was made fresh, right in front of our eyes. I also upgraded my fries to a poutine, which was also very tasty. The portions were the right amount, enough to be full but not to a point where you start feeling sick.
The staff was very friendly, and even though we came not too long before closing time, they allowed us to stay there to finish our meals. Overall, I had a great experience and will be going back there everytime I have a craving for a juicy burger.
Tip: They ONLY accept cash so be ready for that, they do have an ATM in the restaurant which charges $ 1.50 to withdraw.

My Hubby and I decided to try burgers here after reading other Unilocal reviews. Hubs got the Poutine Burger combo (no veggies or sauce) and I got the Apple Butter burger (no cheese – I’m lactose-​intolerant). The cashier/​owner was friendly and catered to our preferred tastes. We were blown away by the taste and quality of the food! The burgers tasted moist and were definitely homemade. The sauce on the Apple Butter burger was tasty, and had a bit of a kick to it. The Poutine burger looked exactly like what you think it should. Washrooms, for those wondering, are single rooms for both men and women, but are clean.
If I were to change anything, I would suggest that they increase the portion of the fries that were received with the combos. They were cut fresh and tasted excellent, but weren’t enough to share.
Overall, very tasty food. We will definitely come back again!

Hands down my go to burger place!
If anyone were to ask me, «Hey, where’s a really good place to get a really good burger?» I would say here.
On the Bun has really good reviews, but everytime I stop by, it’s always dead empty, it kinda worries me.
When I go, I only get the Salisbury and Poutine burger, anything really with gravy, so I can’t speak on behalf of their other burgers. It’s juicy, fresh patties made by hand (if you’re lucky you can see them making the patties). Everything from the super soft burger bun to the fresh toppings is top notch!
The fries are to die for, as they proudly display bags upon bags of fresh potatoes that they cut on the daily! My favourite is getting the cajun or if you’re feeling bold enough, the marsala fries! Full of flavour! My only wish is that they give you a bigger portion of fries.
On my most recent visit, I had seen they added two additional things on the menu, and that was poutines! (finally) They have a regular poutine, and a supreme poutine I think it was called, I don’t remember. But here’s the kicker … They put a burger patty on both. Their meat patties are already deliciously seasoned and juicy as it is, I couldn’t even imagine it on top of a poutine! I didn’t try it, because well … I don’t think I’d be able to finish both a poutine and a burger, that’d be quite a lot. But on my next visit I totally will! The poutine looks like a meal in it self!
I highly recommend On the Bun burgers for everyone to try! It’s hidden in this little run down looking plaza, and you just can’t miss them, as they just got a newly renovated VERY eye popping new sign!

Excellent burger joint. Not the CRAZIEST of choices, but a lot of delicious ones. Might instantly be my second favorite place to get burgers.

Was in the area and stumbled on this place.
I was intrigued by the four star rating and 30 odd reviews given that I’ve never heard of this place and as a true burger lover I could not in good conscience not try it out.
Then I saw the 25% off with any combo if you check in and that made the decision that much easier.
Walked in to find a fairly generic and reasonably sized burger joint with a friendly guy at cashier and some interesting menu options. They have a daily deal ranging between $ 8 – 9 and today it was the Masala burger which I went with. This gets you the burger, fries, and a can of pop.
The meal is fast food style with you picking up your own drink and condiments from the front.
What I found interesting is that this place has an interesting take on the burger concept — they focus on their Apple Butter burger (best seller according to the guy at cashier) and the Masala burger is also popular. They also seem to have a decent selection of loaded poutines which I may try next go round.
The burger: bun was nice and soft but not especially memorable. The burger patty was juicy, flavourful, and done just on the rarer side of medium which was perfect. Dressed with lettuce and some sauces it’s a perfectly enjoyable tasty burger that’s an alternative to your usual fast food level burger. The fries were OK (no complaints about them)
Unless I’m mistaken I view this as a fast food alternative and I believe it’s Halal as well which is a selling point where it’s located. This is by no means a gourmet burger experience. Rather think of it as an opportunity to try a tasty variation of a tried and true go to meal (the proverbial burger and fries). Viewed through that lens it’s a nice meal for less than 10 dollars. I’m not quite sure it’s 4 stars but then again it’s better than average giving it a solid 3.5 stars in my book. (Not sure how to do half stars on the rating hence the 4 stars)
Would go back. 3.5 stars out of 5.
Final point — the 25% check in discount does not apply to the daily combo.

Gotta say this place is surprisingly a gem. I used to frequent the previous joint Pita Grill but when these guys opened I didn’t think they’d last.
Boy was I wrong. Quality ingredients made the old school way. Tastes home made. This is what it’s all about! And the prices can’t be beat.
I’d only say there is one thing to improve on… Their delivery I’ve ordered for family twice from here and each time had items I’ve paid for forgotten. First time was fries second time was the soft drink and the side order of gravy. They really need to either get a new delivery service or to speak to their existing one! That’s not acceptable to me.
Since that is the only reason I docked them for 1 star otherwise, it would have been a five star review!
Oh one last thing they really need a proper website! Not just a Facebook page. Since it doesn’t really explain their menu items at all!

Learned about this place from Unilocal,go Unilocal!
Easy spot to miss, but worth checking out.
Fries are crispy and the gravy delicious. Burger was fresh, handmade, nicely seasoned and juicy without being messy.
I am a fan.

Definitely one of my absolute favorite burger places!
I ordered the apple butter burger with masala fries and my husband got the stacked supreme. The apple butter burger was cooked to perfection with just the right amount of sweetness in between a savory patty and lightly toasted bun. They have some amazing flavors that are definitely not your typical burger.
The only negative thing I can possibly say is the stacked supreme which was disappointing. The idea of fries mixed with beef patty sounds delicious, but when we ordered it but both my husband and I were disappointed at the portion size and the taste was just alright.
Aside from the stacked supreme fries, the burgers here are absolutely sublime and I can’t wait to try out the other flavors soon!
