Ranked: The Top Spots for Burgers in Mississauga

From dedicated burger joints to halal options and pub grills, here are the top-ranked spots on RankIt for burgers in Mississauga.

Updated August 17, 2026|10 restaurants|By Morgan Ellis

Mississauga has no shortage of burgers, but finding the ones worth going out of your way for takes some filtering. The city stretches from Port Credit on the lake all the way up through the airport corridor and Heartland, and the burger landscape shifts accordingly — fast-casual joints, halal spots, dedicated indie counters, pub grills, and the occasional gastropub.

These are the top-ranked spots on RankIt's Mississauga listings where burgers are either the main event or a clear strength. The order below is what matters: when you're comparing dozens of options across one city, where a place lands tells you something.

Newton Arms Bar and Grill

Mississauga, ON

Newton Arms sits at the top of RankIt's Mississauga rankings across categories, and its pub-style burgers are a core part of what the Silver Creek Blvd neighbourhood spot does well. It's a bar and grill that gets the fundamentals right without overcomplicating things — seasoned patty, solid toppings, the kind of environment that doesn't demand much from you on a weeknight.

East Meats West Halal

Mississauga, ON

If halal burgers are what you're after, East Meats West on Cawthra Rd is one of the more consistently ranked options in the city. The name signals what they're about: halal meats, done properly. Burger options here are built around the protein rather than novelty toppings, which tends to work in the category's favour.

Gladiator Burger

Mississauga, ON

One of the few dedicated burger operations to crack the upper tier of RankIt's Mississauga list, the Dixie and Eglinton location is a fast-casual spot focused exclusively on burgers — which is usually a good sign. If the Dixie location doesn't work for you geographically, a second outpost near Erin Mills and Britannia covers the west side of the city.

Crew Eatery (Formerly Jessie's)

Mississauga, ON

Running since 1981 under various names, this Matheson Blvd fixture is one of the longer-running eateries in the area. The format is diner-style — griddled burgers, quick service, everyday pricing — and it has been feeding the surrounding office parks for decades. It holds its own against newer competition by not trying to be anything other than what it is.

The Burger Alley

Mississauga, ON

Tucked into the Spectrum Way area near Airport Corporate Centre, The Burger Alley draws heavily from the surrounding business community. It's a focused menu — burgers and sides — and the rankings suggest it outperforms its relatively low-key location. Worth knowing if you work or regularly move through that corridor.

Cuda's Tap & Grill

Mississauga, ON

Over in Lorne Park near the lakeshore, Cuda's serves the west end of the city as a neighbourhood tap-and-grill. Burgers are part of a broader pub menu, but the location and consistent ranking make it a reasonable stop if you're in the area. The Lorne Park stretch is worth a longer look if you haven't been out that way.

The Burger Bros

Mississauga, ON

The Burger Bros has two Mississauga locations — Central Parkway and Dundas St. The Central Pkwy spot places higher of the two and is the one worth going to first. The second-floor location on Central Pkwy E gives it a slightly different feel from a standard strip-mall counter, and the menu is burger-focused without apology.

Rosie's Burgers

Mississauga, ON

Rosie's lands on Lakeshore Rd E in Port Credit, which is saying something — that strip has serious competition. With a reported average around $7 per item, it's one of the more accessible dedicated burger spots in the city. The Port Credit location makes it a natural pairing with a walk along the waterfront, and it earns its ranking without any frills to speak of.

The Wilcox Gastropub

Mississauga, ON

If you want a burger that comes with a bit more intention behind it — thicker patty, better sourcing, a considered build — The Wilcox is the gastropub answer on RankIt's Mississauga list. Located on Eglinton Ave W near Hurontario, it carries an average spend around $25. Good choice when you want a proper sit-down rather than a counter pick-up.

The WORKS Craft Burgers & Beer

Mississauga, ON

The WORKS is an Ontario chain with a reputation for elaborate burger builds and a full beer program. The Mississauga outpost sits on Lakeshore Rd E in Port Credit, alongside several other top-ranked spots on the same stretch. It places below the independent spots on this list, but if you're new to Mississauga or want a reliable experience in a strong location, it delivers consistently. For everything else the city has going for it, the top-ranked restaurants in Mississauga page is a useful place to start.

Frequently Asked Questions
