“ Was in Sault Ste Marie during lunch hrs. Asked a local at a gas station where was a good place to eat. They didn't hesitate... West Pier Dr In. We go there all the time. It's a small place and you pull up and a friendly employee comes out to your car window and takes your order. Menu was simple and was on a plain white piece of paper. The double bacon cheeseburger was 14.50 fries 4.00. I asked... how big is that burger for 14? Reply... two half pound patties. Wow, I got the single and my friend had to get the double. I also got the fries. The bag of fries was so big that's all I could eat. They were hot, large crinkle cut and very good. The burger is being saved for when I am hungry. My buddy ate the double and he said every bite was very good. He was full after the burger. If I was a betting man I'd say that their shakes and other stuff is all quality. Might not ever get back to Sault Ste Marie but if I do... I'll bring a bigger appetite and be sure to stop by. You should too. ”
“ It's absolutely the best burger I've had in a while. I have no idea how you'd eat a double cheeseburger. The regular one is huge! Portions are extremely generous, and the service is friendly and prompt. The root beer shake is really good, too! Highly recommended if you're in the Soo. ”
“ WOW These burgers are really good! This was our first time to West Pier Drive-In and we loved it. The location feels really cool and the carhops were great! We had two cheeseburgers made to order and we split a very generous portion of onion rings. The burger is huge and delicious. It has lots of condiments. It is a messy and delicious They have a very good selection of other choices also. I would highly recommend trying this place! It might be my new favorite! ”
“ We had a GIANT bacon cheeseburger here! I think it was the heaviest burger I have ever held! It was big enough to share. We also ordered the fried and onion rings. Both sides we fresh out of the fryer and generous portions. Come hungry and with cash! ”
