Burger Baron is a chain of fast-food restaurants in Western Canada.
[edit] History
Founded in 1957 in Lethbridge, Alberta, Burger Baron was the first drive-through chain in Western Canada.[1] The company expanded quickly throughout the region but suffered when the big American chains began to move to the area. Today, there are still dozens of Burger Barons throughout Western Canada, but they are mostly concentrated around Edmonton. Among other things, Burger Baron is famous for taking over the former locations of other fast-food chains, and for being endorsed by former Edmonton Oilers hockey coach Glen Sather.[1]
Burger Barons typically feature multiple unusual variations of hamburger, such as a "Salisbury Burger", and a "Teriyaki Burger". In recent years one the chain's main features has been Halifax-style donairs.[1].
