Wally’s Burgers is back and better than ever! The restaurant is very clean and fresh looking, the service is excellent and the food seems to have been improved on in every way possible. Their fries are excellent (still served in the wax paper bags) but you now get about twice as many versus the original on Kingsway. I ordered a Chuckwagon with cheese and was more than happy with it. The meat is excellent, the buns are fresh and light and the condiments are the same as those used in the originals. And the Onions! They got those just right too. And the onion rings are to die for. So glad you’re back and keep the burgers coming! Best in town!

You’re welcome Kim. I hope they have it right when you go. All this business needs is a little web presence too. Wallysburgers.com is taken but parked – I hope THEY have it because I know the old Wally’s has a history that people from all over the country know about and I bet they’d like to know what’s up with their favourite burger joint.

I'm just here to say that they opened in the strip mall by Killarney market in Vancouver. The taste of the burger I had (especially the fixin's) was the same but the bun could be fresher. Hope they get it right because whether they know it or not they got a gold mine on their hands. I can see a few of these little stores around in Vancouver in the next little while. The Blogger Baron

Hi, Kimho
The name sounds like Korean to me.
I ever met some people who were intereted(they said)’Wally’s’ before, but they wanted to take it for free. Whatever those people say, it’s typical business tactic. Surely, I have no connection with those people. And we don’t need to judge them. Kimho, why don’t you make Burger at home? Do you know the burger(this type of food) came from Mongolian? And someone ever asked me where is the ham in the hamburger?

Connor, welcome! As per my post, the rights to the name and trademark were purchased and, its location in Cates Park in North Vancouver, most likely be the first among many future Wally’s - this in turn is based on an article by CityFood (click here for that article). It boils down to this question: Is this statement true? If it is, unfortunately, they can claim they are authentic... But, regardless if it is true or not, I think most food bloggers have agreed that this place is not even a shadow of the previous Wally's; again, from my post: despite I went to the original location only once, the one I had was at least slightly memorable... Here, it was an experience I could easily overlook.
