Matt's Burger Lab
We stopped by Matt’s Burger Lab on Queen Street Wed Oct 14, 2026, hungry and ready to see what all the burger science was about. Well, whatever experiments they’re conducting in that lab, they need to keep doing them! We both ordered the double smash burgers with all the toppings, requesting that the all-beef patties not be cooked too well done. The result? Two absolutely delicious, juicy, cheesy burgers that required both hands and a little concentration to eat! The beef was full of flavour, the cheese was beautifully melted, and the fresh toppings brought everything together. These burgers were seriously filling. You certainly won’t leave wondering what to eat next! Now, let’s talk about those fries, because they deserve some recognition of their own. Golden and crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside, and served in a portion that clearly wasn’t measured by someone counting potatoes! There was also a nice assortment of dipping sauces, including ketchup, BBQ, mayo-style sauce, and a sweeter sauce. Naturally, we had to conduct a few taste experiments of our own. All in the name of research, of course! The service was friendly, and the atmosphere was pleasant. The bill came to approximately $40 for two burger-and-fries meals and a fizzy drink. A little on the expensive side for burgers and fries, but the generous portions and delicious food helped soften the blow. Our taste buds were certainly happier than our wallets! Final verdict: Matt’s Burger Lab passed our taste test with flying colours! Delicious burgers, excellent fries, and friendly service. It’s a little pricey, but we’d happily return when the craving for a really good smash burger comes calling.
