Ordered $160 of food tonight at 541pm. Order was accepted at 542pm and delivery was supposed to be 20-40 minutes. We live 5 minutes from the restaurant. After contacting customer support with DoorDash, we finally received our food at 735pm. Our entire order was wrong. We ordered 2 cheeseburgers, one was supposed to be only ketchup, cheese and bacon. Had everything on it, including onions, tomatoes and lettuce. The other burger wasn't even cooked. It was raw in the middle. We ordered 2 chicken burgers, one was the thunder crunch chicken burger with only lettuce and bacon on it. We got it with hot sauce, tomatoes and everything else. They gave us a regular chicken sandwich with only bacon on it, which wasn't even part of our order. We ordered 2 poutines, one was supposed to have the gravy on the side and neither of them did. Our fries, onion rings and gravy were cold. The poutines were cold. We were missing 2 soft drinks. Our delivery driver said he had to go back into the restaurant 4 times and kept being told "10 more minutes". Almost 2 hours waiting for our food and none of it came hot or even made correctly. Extremely disappointed with this and will not be ordering from them again.

Best place for a juicy burger for sure. Not sure how I feel about their fries it’s always burned and fries depends on the time you order. It’s a good place to enjoy a meal. They moved to a new place instead of inside the gas station and now they have seating and good chilling spot. Recommended for sure.

Finally decided to give this place a try, take out option. The positive: everything was hot and ready to go. The Jason Blaine burger was quite tasty. The staff were very pleasant. Unfortunately, the burger was rare, at best, just a quick seer on the outside and very pink inside. We opted to share an order of frings, which was extremely small for the price, $14.95, and the fries were +++++soggy. I, unfortunately, don't see a return visit in our future.

A most excellent menu. We chose the hickory crunch and mushroom Swiss melt burgers. Fries and onion rings. Large servings, excellent ratio of onion to batter on the rings. Fries were some of the best I’ve had. The burgers were delicious perfect size, excellent taste, melt in your mouth bites just absolutely wonderful after a very long day. Well done, be seeing you again!! Only 4 stars for atmosphere as we did take out but it’s very clean and neat inside.

I’ve tried this place 5 times because I really wanted to give them a shot but I’m always disappointed so I think this is the last time. This time I asked for some items not to be put onto my burger because of food sensitivities that can make me feel sick, and when I open it at home it’s all on there. I had to toss the whole burger out. The fries are always overdone and taste burnt as well. I hadn’t ordered in a bit so I assumed before it was because they were new, and I wanted to try it again but nothing changed.

Food was good until I got to the bacon on my burger, it was terrible quality, it almost looked like ready made bacon but the taste was horrible almost like plastic..once I removed my bacon off my burger it was good:) Poutine was plentiful and delicious…I’d go back again:)

I got the cheeseburger poutine. It was massive, lol. I've had cheeseburger poutines elsewhere, and they just tasted like starch, not great. This one, however, was amazing and filling, tasted just like a cheeseburger. I have never had a problem with law and orders. People complain about greasy burgers and such, but that is what you get with smash burger style burgers. All the burgers are delicious. A 10/10 from me and many other dedicated customers. Keep up the great food and service

Unreal smash burgers. Best in the area for sure. Lil bit of a wait but not much more than a Five Guys. Edit: I'm back. Its been a couple of weeks. It's nuts you guys. I have NEVER had bad food from this place. Delivered and from the actual restaurant are not only comparable but both perfect every single time. My only qualm- how small the kitchen/restaurant is. I would EXPLODE if they opened full brick and mortar and had an eating area. They clearly need to grow because they're so fricken busy! It is worth every moment you may have to wait, I promise. Please don't give up if you see that they're busy. If you haven't eaten here yet, what else are you waiting for?

November 22, 2024

Delivery took almost two hours and it showed up cold. The restaurant lied to me about my order and would not help at all. The food was mediocre too. Over $60 for a burger and poutine.

I had one of the limited edition burgers. The person working had never heard of it, even though it was on his digital menu in the store. It was missing cheese and crunchy onions. I also ordered the limited edition butter chicken pouting that was supposed to be covered with popcorn chicken, but sadly I received a diced up crispy chicken patty.

Nice little location of Law and Orders, a chain I already know to be great. I had a cheeseburger and it was fantastic. They give you almost too many fries but I dont think anyone would complain about that. Staff was friendly.

They moved in after that cool breakfast place shut down. Renovated somewhat but the floor doesnt fit the decor. Oh well. We ordered for pickup and they said half an hour. Fine. We got there and ended waiting an extra 40 minutes to get our food. And the food was disappointing. For some reason, it was kind of dry. While we were waiting a handful of delivery people came in, picked up large amounts of orders, and left. I felt pretty low-priority.

1. Food - the oil in the fryer needs to be changed. Everything came out dark, not seasoned, and was missing a wow factor. I assume the onion rings are pre-cooked and dropped in for a few seconds to heat up, then placed on a burger? Thats what it tasted like and the crunch was hard. 2. When I brought the onion rings back the guys were very quick, I mean less than a minute I got newish onion rings...but once again super hot to the touch, then cold inside. Onion rings cannot be cooked in advance...its a cardinal sin! 3. No lights on, no music.... you need something to not make the grey walls match the atmosphere. In truth, I wont go back, I think Ill stick to burgers made at home.

I first tried Law & Order in Petawawa this past summer and it quickly became my go-to place for a delicious and fresh homemade burger and fries! I visited the Pembroke location today and tried their poutine and all I can say is WOW! Flavour explosion! Law & Order takes the cake over any fast food place in town and I am here for it!

Can t begin to explain how many boxes this place checks . Boxes I didn t know existed haha. Will be back for more soon :)

I have had Law & Orders three times now. Tonight was the third time. The first two visits were amazing. Tonight was highly disappointing. Spent over $50 for three burgers and a family fry to be left still hungry. The meat was very over cooked and when I say that I mean literally crunchy. Two of the burgers were quarter pound and one was a half pound. All three were crunchy. The toppings were less than fresh and there was enough mayo on each one for ten burgers. The fries were over cooked and I would suspect a grease change is required.

The poutine had soggy overcooked fries, but the cheese and gravy were nice. My burger (Rhippo) was very greasy, the bun was soaked and there was a pool of grease in the wrapper. The burger patties were both overcooked, dry, rubbery, and lacked flavour. All you could taste in the burger was grease and none of the other toppings. For the price paid (close to $30 for a burger and poutine) I expected much better quality. Could barely see the other toppings.

This is by far my favorite burger and fry place in the area, unfortunately, the last couple visits, the staff cannot seem to prepare a simple order. Today I ordered 2 burgers and two fries, they were to be ready 515 and I didnt leave the store until 545, when I got home the fries were cold and the burgers were soaked in grease...I think the most disappointing part is that if they cannot get the management part together our small town is going to lose its best burger place to date.

Delicious food, I got the specialty hickory crunch burger and I was not disappointed other than the hickory sticks getting soggy in the middle. The fries were a generous serving with the combo, although a little soft for the larger cuts and lacking in salt, they were the nostalgic fresh cut fries that youd get in a chip truck. I also got the fried pickles and they stayed crispy and warm for a while, I was surprised that they didnt have a dipping sauce on the side but these were so good that I didnt really need one. Lastly, as a plan ahead kind of person I REALLY appreciate that they have their full menu online with pictures, I knew what I wanted before I walked in.

I waited ages at the counter while, I believe it was the owner, ignored me; tapping on his phone. While I was impressed by the amount of onion rings, I was disappointed that they were too well done. The burger was bland and not worth the trip. This being my first impression, I wouldnt recommend, and wont return.

Law and orders have excellent quality burgers and menu items that taste akin to 5 guys burger and fries, or something like burgers priest if youre familiar with good from the GTA. Its on the more expensive side of fast food, but worth it if you want a higher quality burger than wendies and the like. Located within an ultramar gas station, I was incredibly concerned initially, but after ordering multiple times, the food is high quality and assembled with care. The fries are chip truck style and good, portions large and the deep fried Mac and cheese bites I tried were pretty delicious. Would recommend for takeout only. Parking: Its within a gas station so parking is fairly limited without blocking a pump.

I had the The Ringo burger and my hubby had the double 1/2 lbs burger with cheese. The fries needed to be double fried though as they are so thick. But the burgers were the best that we have had there! Awesome!!!

December 22, 2023

I was missing my drink and fries from my combo and when I called I was told the system is making errors and didnt charge the combo. Okay I understand but I still ordered and paid for root beer which is still not with my order and they said I didnt get a combo so they didnt add the drink and that I didnt pay for a rootbeer. The staff I spoke to were very rude and made me feel like it is my fault that the system glitches and still didnt get what I paid for as the root beer is on my receipt. As my teen was eating his burger he found a hair in his toppings and so did my husband so none of us wanted to continue eating. This was what $60 got us. Soggy fries, soggy onion rings, 3 burgers(two with hair) and 2 small gravy that all went to my compost bin. I definitely will not be going back.

I want to tell you about the best hamburger Ive had in years - possibly ever. This is the barnyard burger - beef, chicken, bacon, cheese - and it was beyond-description good. Normally when you get a fully loaded burger youre left wondering just how youre supposed to actually eat it, but theyve got the balance of heft and hand-heldness down to an actual science. It is *incredibly* easy to mess up a chicken burger, if were being honest. Usually theyre just kind of dry and fairly bland, but this one? Not a chance. Juicy, tasty, and adding an awesome crunch and balance against the cheese and beef. Do yourself a favour and stop in anywhere you see their sign (it was the owner of the chain that served me mine in Petawawa, so hes around and knows how to make sure his staff knows *exactly* what theyre doing. you will not regret it.
