From Toronto and was up here for the week. Stopped by to try a burger and milkshake today and it was delicious! Highly recommend! Best milkshake we ever had.

The best burger I’ve ever had by far. They are incredible. And the monthly specials are so unique and delicious. The pricing is very fair for what you get. Highly recommend! Their milkshakes are also incredible!

Went to Orillia last month. Hubby found this place. Knowing I love these styles of restaurants. Right away there was such a happy atmosphere. Workers always with smiles. We both felt welcomed right away. The food was delicious . Husband and I found are favourite restaurant. Coming back Saturday can’t wait. Milkshakes is our next try. They look delicious. With a great staff and food, I had to review. Here’s to more

Tried them for the first time and this has to be one my favorite Smashburger places me and a buddy got the Archie combo and I made mine famous to upgrade to a milkshake. The chocolate shake was alright but not anything special. The burger though was nice and crispy and deliciously juicy. The fries were good and had some nice seasoning. I'd highly recommend the smash burger it was amazing. Our 2 combos was a bit less than 40 but it's worth it for the taste. The vibe of the place is amazing too

One of the Best Burgers!! This restaurant is designed like an old-fashion burger diner. The retro-style decor makes this a great place to enjoy dining while remembering the good ol’ days :-) The staff are friendly and courteous, and the service is fast. The smash patties are large, juicy and delicious, and the soft buns are smaller - exactly the way a burger should be! This place really impressed me, and I will definitely be dining at this restaurant frequently going forward. I highly recommend dining at this restaurant and enjoying their memorable burgers!

Food is to die for! I got the 'archies chicken club' poutine and the shake of the month. First off, the gravy on the poutine is probably the best gravy known to man, the chicken was super tender and juicy, just perfect. And I hope they keep the Mango milkshake always! My husband go the burger of the month which he loved, it was huge! Seems like a very busy spot but they got our order made up decently quick. Staff was super friendly. We will totally be back

We came from Peterborough area to stay at casinorama for the night . The wife looked this place up and I’m glad she did . We loved it , amazing burgers , super friendly , very fast service , super quality place . I fully endorse the “famous” in the title - it’s there for a reason.

Looking for the best burger experience in Orillia? Look no further than Famous Archies! Staff, service and food definitely met the expectations set by family and friends. Food was prepared fresh and fast, and served with such a nice presentation. Great value here. In my opinion (and my daughter’s), the best burger…and milkshake around. But what made the meal even better was the friendly and helpful staff. Thank you! We will be back!!
