If you’re looking for a mouth-watering burger joint in the Bloor West Village, you found it.

With 35 flavour combinations, and burgers ranging from beef to camel, The Yellow Griffin will turn you into a fan, and keep you coming back for more – that’s why it’s been at the same location for almost 25 years!

The Yellow Griffin has been dishin’ out variety since 1993. Dive into the ‘Cheesy Triple Cheese’, with lots of feta crumbled under mounds of melted mozzarella. Cheddarin ain’t easy with this one! Or take a crack at one of their ridiculous ‘Chilly Willy’ burgers – Crispy onion strings, fried apples, and habanero BBQ sauce. It’s more Hot than Chilly! Ever have a camel burger? Didn’t think so. You can try one here… talk about unique!

Oliver and Maria have specialized in gourmet burgers since 2005 and offer over 35 different combinations of burger toppings using the best locally sourced ingredients. The patties range from a selection of Grade A Canadian beef to exotic choices such as Camel or Wild Boar. Any of the burger toppings can be served on a vegetarian patty while a gluten free bun option is also available. In addition, you may choose from regular pub fare as well as an excellent choice of gourmet sausages.

The turkey burger at this fave spot is out of this world as well. BlogTO rated it as one of the top turkey burgers in Toronto! This isn’t your ordinary dried out turkey burger. It’s juicy, it’s succulent, and you’ll come back for another one.

The party room facility upstairs is famous in the Village, hosting local community organizations, birthdays, wedding receptions and many other special events. The facility is free to book and has a capacity of up to 70 people, with a separate private bar. Chef Joe prepares special catering for every group depending on their needs, from simple hors d’oeuvres to the most elaborate gourmet fare. The room can accommodate live bands and hosts a challenging trivia contest on Wednesday nights. So come take a look!
