Reviews consistently praise Wayback Burgers for fresh beef that is not frozen, flavorful burgers cooked to order, and a variety of options including veggie patties, with many noting juicy burgers and good toppings. Fries and sides are described as crispy and well seasoned, and shakes are a popular accompaniment. Service is repeatedly called friendly, patient with kids, and efficient, and the atmosphere is welcoming with a clean retro vibe. Value is highlighted by several reviewers as strong for the quality, while a few mention higher prices or occasionally less memorable burgers. Overall the place is seen as a reliable, quality burger spot with good service and a pleasant dining experience.
REALLY good burgers. New to Quebec…Way back is way better than the fast food joints (or restos with burgers on their menus). Beef if cooked from fresh, not frozen. Option for a lettuce wrap muchly appreciated. Fries must be crispy in my books & theirs were perfect (no old oil taste some well done fries have). Owner super friendly. Highly recommend - will definitely go again!

Nestled between a two well-known chains on St Charles north of the 40 is this fabulous burger restaurant. Food was amazing, fresh & Quebec sourced; milk shakes were excellent, optionally served without whipped cream!
Service was friendly & prompt. Clean restrooms.inviting retro vibe.
I know my burgers, take it from me, 2 out of 5 stars (I'm being generous after all it's Christmas!) It was my first time ever eating WaybackBurgers. $24 for a double with bacon no cheese fries & coke. The burger itself was dry, the meat was not juicy & the bacon was rubbery & also dry. The fries look & taste exactly like Harvey's fries. I have a feeling the chicken is better than beef in this so-called burger join.
Customer service is top-notch. The owner is very kind. I learned today that the beef is from local Montreal farms & their dairy comes from the Saguenay. Extremely clean. Food is fast casual, not fast food, meaning it's made to order & it is always fresh. The fries are amazing & the burgers also. They also do catering which I did for a small company lunch & it was ready for just as we arrived so everything was still hot.
It's a cute old-fashioned diner kind of vibe. I've eaten both at & door dashed from them & either one they're absolutely delicious & on point. Decided to write the review because my friend & I happened to be hungry at 9:59PM (they close at 10) to try if we could get some of their DELICIOUS chili cheese fries, & they gladly made some even if it was a minute before closing!! Would totally recommend, great food, good prices, nice staff!
Heard nothing but amazing things, had to come try it for myself. From the moment we walked in & got greeted kindly to finishing the last bite of chilli cheese fries was amazing. This place always & only uses fresh Halal beef which you can truly taste the quality. Once you go to Wayback you will be back.

Went today, I was so excited to try then. 😫 27+$ for 1 burger & fries with a milkshake way too expensive 😭 I'LL drive the 5 mins away to FIVE GUYS at least you get your money's worth! Food, It's like going to a&w but more expensive 😫 nothing special!
