If you're looking for gas, you've come to the wrong gas station. However, if you're looking for a creative burger, you've come to the right place. The Powerstop, owned by brothers Sean And Deven Bennett, operates out of a converted gas station. Although the petrol pumps no longer serve gas, the Powerstop still maintains the atmosphere of the convenience store when you walk through the door. The interior of the restaurant stays true to its roots by having shelves of your favourite gas station snacks and drinks.

However, skip the processed foods and go to the counter, where the real food is prepared. The Powerstop hasn't received top burger awards in the past decade for serving crappy burgers. The dizzying array of burgers on the menu will make you feel hungry and overwhelmed. However, the employees at The Powerstop are always ready to offer a recommendation to suit your taste.
