BRGR BRGR flips burgers and calls bingo—for men’s health

A local favourite turns dinner into a fundraiser with a lighthearted twist.

In Abbotsford, Movember means more than moustaches—it means community. And this year, one of the city’s favourite burger joints is serving up a side of purpose with its patties.

On November 24, BRGR BRGR will host its first-ever Movember Bingo Night, combining what it does best—great burgers, good times, and local spirit—with a fundraiser for men’s health.

For $20, guests will get a burger, fries, a cold beer, and a bingo card, with every dollar going directly to Movember Canada, which funds initiatives in men’s mental health, suicide prevention, and prostate and testicular cancer research. Additional bingo cards will be available for $5 each, with fun prizes up for grabs throughout the evening.

“Movember is all about starting conversations and having fun while supporting a serious cause,” says Mikey McClintock, organizer of the event. “We wanted to create something that gets people out, laughing, and connecting—and what better way than burgers, beers, and bingo?”

McClintock says the idea came together quickly after a conversation with general manager and bingo enthusiast Krista Holt, who had recently picked up the game as a hobby. “Krista mentioned how fun it could be to bring that energy into the restaurant,” he says. “We realized our Abbotsford space was perfect for a night like this—we’ve got the energy, the crowd, and the vibe. It’s about showing up for each other, whether that’s by growing a moustache, buying a burger, or just being part of the night.”

Since opening, BRGR BRGR has built a loyal following with its stacked burgers, local ingredients, and friendly, casual atmosphere that’s as welcoming to families as it is to Friday-night regulars. Events like this one reflect what makes the restaurant more than just a spot to eat—it’s become part of the community’s heartbeat.

“Everyone knows someone who’s been affected by mental health struggles or cancer,” McClintock adds. “This is our way of saying, ‘You’re not alone, and we can make a difference together.’”

The Movember Bingo Night kicks off at 7 p.m. on Monday, November 24, at BRGR BRGR Abbotsford. Expect a full house, plenty of laughter, and maybe even a few moustaches behind the bar.

Tickets are available online.
