Great burgers. I usually order Burgers Anonymousâs chicken burgers but decided to try their cheeseburger (pictured). It came as a meal with a drink and fries. The burger patty was nice and thick, bun was soft and included lots of delicious cheese oozing out of the bun.

Great burger joint tucked away in the corner of north Sydney. The prices are reasonable and so too are the waiting times.

The staff are also very helpful to provide their recommendations if youâre unsure of what to get.

One of the most iconic burger joints in Sydney CBD, and for a reason. The burgers are just so delicious! They have classics but also specials each week. I usually go for Mr Truffle, canât go wrong with that! Onion rings are great as well. The good thing is that you can also enjoy great beers with your food here. Gets really busy though so you may need to queue for a bit.

Maryâs charm is enhanced by loud, vibrant music, strong drinks, dim lighting, and graffiti. Itâs a boisterous chain that now operates in multiple locations throughout Sydney. The CBDâs Castlereagh Street stop is a tiny take-away shop.

Key Differentiators:
- Rustic bar with timber decor
- Amazing atmospher
- A mezzanine and a rock ânâ roll vibe
Customerâs Review:
This place is one of its own kind. Hard to locate as from the outside it looks like an abandoned house (video posted). But as you enter, the place turns into a nasty vibe. Full on a grungy look with graffiti on every inch of the place. Surprisingly the meat is halal. Had Maryâs Classic burger with Half Bird. The burger was delicious however fried chicken was okay as it was over-fried. All in all, a very good experience.

Customerâs Review:
Came late with a large group and we were all very impressed with the food. The chips were nice, burgers were good but the coleslaw was average. The only let down would come down to the service of the Asian waitress who was a little hard to understand and when she placed food on to our tables, she would just toss/slide it on. Besides that, would come again for the other food and drinks.

This burger place in Sydney will put you into a food coma â some might even call it a âhibernationâ. The classics are all there, including the cheeseburger and chicken burger, but options such as the âHell Boyâ with house chilli sauce might pick your fancy.

Key Differentiators:
- Served fresh and hot

- Friendly helpful staff
Customerâs Review:
Itâs not a fluke. These guys nail it every single time! After many great burgers, I finally had the NASH and itâs a perfect medley of flavours. Really missing the Texan loaded chips with the pulled brisket, but the other loaded chips are great as well. Definitely keeps me coming back!

Weâll take you on a journey from the host of hearty beef patties to something a little less conventional with us. The Bar UME sibling is located on Barangarooâs Wulugul waterfront walkway, and the view is just as excellent as the burgers themselves.

Key Differentiators:

Customerâs Review:
Nice location along the river in a food court-like strip (although a fancy one). The staff were friendly, food was quick to come out and the burger was tasty. I also got a warm Yuzu drink that was also enjoyable. The menu is Japanese inspired. Recommended if you like burgers.

He may claim that title, but he has made a name for himself in Sydney and beyond thanks to his delectable menu options. The fried onion, merely sounds like something straightforward? But it really tastes fantastic that youâll want to get some more. Visit Chebboâs Instagram to see what new dish heâs planning next.

Not all burgers are made equally, as we all know. Now that youâve seen our list of the best burgers in Sydney, you canât go wrong. Burger Patch is an excellent example to illustrate our point. This restaurant only employs the highest quality ingredients and their patties are entirely composed of Australian beef with no additions.

The Angry American, a must-try, features the spicy homemade chili alongside the housemade chile sauce.

Customerâs Review:

Love at first biteâ thatâs what youâll feel when you try one of Sydneyâs best burgers from Out of the Blue. This family-owned and operated east gem is well-known for their use of only locally sourced ingredients in each handmade burger. You can order any type of burger on the menu, but it might be better to try one of their house specials instead. And although there are a limited number seats inside, most customers prefer this takeaway joint so they can picnic with an unforgettable view down by Cloey carpark. Just remember: Out of The Blue is cash-only⌠but I promise sheâs worth it!
Key Differentiators:
- Friendly staff
- Tiny, bustling takeaway joint for burgers
- Classic fish ânâ chips and deep-fried Mars Bars
Customerâs Review:
Went around 12pm and was surprised there was no queue. Friendly staff. The hoki fish was firm and lightly battered, and tasted really good. Fries tasted amazing with the chicken salt, and the portion is generous for the price. Will definitely visit again.

Customerâs Review:
The milk bar were proud to announce they had the best chips in Sydney as i walked in. The coating they put on it tasted sweet however it retained a lot of oil. I ordered the original milk bar burger overall it wasnât too bad nor certain if they have the best chips Iâve eaten. The bright funky burger joint is decorated with graffiti and chalk menus. It seems to be a popular place to eat as I saw a lot of take away orders come through.

The condiments perfectly compliments the meat. We got the Brussels sprouts, were delicious however they did get quiet salty towards the end. Overall, a great place to dine or for a date.

Itâs all about hot chicken at this location. âIf you know, you knowâ is how Iâd describe it. Itâs tucked away just north of Blacktown, but trust us when we say that once youâve tasted the fried chicken here, youâll be back again.

One bite into a burger from Burger Head and you know itâs something special because they minced their own beef and developed their own distinctive sauces. Dine in at Burger Head, pick up food to go, or keep track of the food van on social media. It opened its doors in Blacktown early in 2020.
Key Differentiators:
- Matched by milkshakes & craft beer
- Casual counter-serve spot
- Excellent customer service
Customerâs Review:
Best burgers out west with delicious beef paddies, or fried chicken, they have your standard burger options and more fancy versions. Pictured with this review is a weekly special which involves truffle. The portion sizes of the chips are quite generous and there are a few different sauces you can purchase that will go with the fries.

Fantastic American tavern with to-die-for wings and melt-in-your-mouth brisket, bbq, and burgers. American husband was skeptical but rates it 5 stars. Trivia and free arcade games upstairs kept us entertained after dinner. Top-notch service especially Tyson who was super friendly and made us feel super welcome.

Great service and food was delicious. We had the little platter and everything on it was flavourful, not dry, and well seasoned. We also had an extra large fries and onion rings which were surprisingly light and that seasoning salt was perfect. My wife isnât big on barbecue sauce but loved the one they had. Great experience and will be coming back.

Upon opening Butterâs original Surry Hills outpost in 2016, chef Julian Cincotta had a clear vision: to blend key ingredients including hip-hop, sneakers, fancy champagne, and fried chicken. The latter item is now widely recognized as some of the best in town â sitting so beautifully between two burger buns that itâll make you tear up a little bit!
Key Differentiators:
- Well-seasoned and cooked
- Serves cocktails and chicken
- Superior quality
Customerâs Review:
Got takeaway from here during lockdown. Burgers are really excellent (got the OG with Coleslaw and cheese), however the tenders were a little peppery and the chicken wings were slightly disappointing (with the skin separating from the deep fried coating). The hot sauce is also only okay. Overall though, would definitely order again when needing a solid burger fix.

Since 1957, Paulâs hasnât altered its recipe. That means you wonât find any gourmet burgers at this restaurant; only classic, homemade ones with fries.

The famous simplicity of the American cheeseburger is what made it popular. The Bettyâs Classic comprises of simply beef, lettuce, tomato, American cheese, and a McDonaldâs-style special sauce between a soft milk bun.

- Special sauce between a soft milk bun

The popular food truck has established itself in its own location. You wonât have to wait any longer for the famous American-style burgers, macânâcheese balls, or cheeseburger spring rolls to appear. Baby Reyâs prides itself on its ability to serve not only healthy American-style burgers, but also more indulgent options.

Phone | +61 2 9908 3909 |
Operating Hours | Daily 11:30AMâ8PM |
Smoky Sueâs is all about low and slow American-style BBQ, in the first place. The Maroubra restaurant takes barbecuing seriously, and one of their meat boxes with protein options like brisket, fried chicken, pork belly, or pulled pork and hearty sides like brisket beans and mac nâ cheese bombs is never a bad option. So, picture what magnificent things two expert hands can do with meats like that. Trust us when we say that the results are delicious beyond belief.
Key Differentiators:
- Meat boxes with protein options like brisket, fried chicken, pork belly, or pulled pork
- Sides like brisket beans and mac nâ cheese bombs
- Slow cooked and smoked meat
Customerâs Review:
Probably one of my favourite burgers of the year. It was so juicy and full of flavour. I love their burger of the month creations!! Comes with fries too and is super affordable. Their share platter was OK, unfortunately, the brisket was a bit dry and the pork belly was too fatty but everything else was amazing.

Operating Hours | Daily 11:00 AM â 10:00 PM |
For obvious reasons, we didnât include any standard fast-food restaurants in this article. However, for the benefit of American behemoths and new kids on the block like Five Guys, weâre making an excusable exception. The super-hyped burger restaurant has established itself in Penrith, and so far, the reviews and videos have been sending our mouths into overdrive.
Key Differentiators:
- Free peanuts while you wait
- Unlimited drinks
- Signature hand-cut potato fries
Customerâs Review:
The burger is very delicious and fat, the fries are also very good. The drinks are unlimited and you can refill them inside which is great! The price might be a little bit high but itâs quite worth it. I hope they come up with a bundle or package in the future.
