Grand Trailer Park Taverna

This place is really great, such a funky vibe and love all the booth seating. Easy to get to location, just go up the stairs that look like you're entering a nightclub and you've made it. The burgers are the stand out here (obviously) I had the Thanos and it was actually so good. I haven't had a mac and cheese croquette in a burger before but I can say, I'm a convert now! Seriously cheesy, gluten-y goodness with a delicious patty, tomato, lettuce and lashings of sauce. The Nutella/Kinder Surprise milkshake was massive and very tasty - adding the splash of liquor would have been even more decadent but I was pacing myself - the burger was huge so don't snack too much before you come. Service was prompt, great soundtrack and pretty quiet on a Sunday arvo so a great spot to sit and chat! Definitely recommend for any burger connoisseurs out there!

The restaurant has a nice theme with the trailers inside giving it an outdoor feel. The burgers were average in taste, moderate size and a tad pricey. The milkshakes were really good though but not enough for me to come back unfortunately.

We went here on a Friday night and I left very impressed. From sitting to our food arriving on the table was 20 minutes! On top of that, the food tasted amazing and was reasonably priced. The staff was really friendly and the environment was great. We left happy and full, will definitely be coming back :) One suggested improvement though - along with Tabasco on the table, have ketchup bottles too Edit: I'd appreciate it though if my photos were not removed that I uploaded. They were representative of my experience

Great burger joint and a great variety of drinks. One obvious lacking thing is the variety in their burgers. At least chuck in a chicken burger as well. But overall lovely experience. Decor, actual food quality, atmosphere and staff 10/10.

Best Burgers in Melbourne, great atmosphere with very friendly service. Great shakes, cocktails and a small selection of local beers and wines. One American Pale available in cans with a selection bid Aus & NZ craft on tap from Lion.

As of now, my favorite burger shop in Melbourne! The burgers here are big and filling so defiantly a good choice if your hungry! They have a great variety and a fun interior. I recommend the Thanos burger as it tastes great.

What a great spot. The staff are fantastic; friendly, funny and helpful- a credit to the business. Then the rubber meets the road with the food - fabulous burgers. The Chunk was an absolute beauty. The beer battered chips weren’t the best but the burgers and beer was the best. Well worth making an effort to get there.

Even in the midst of the city being a ghost town plenty of people were in here. The food was SO GOOD. Loved that we could order online from the table and the food came out quick. We had the basic not so crazy burgers but they were so good, juicy and fresh. The chilli fries were great but the real MVP’s are the onion rings.

This is your guilty pleasure comfort food, so greasy and amazing! Some of the best burgers I experienced in Melbourne. Really cool retro decor and upstairs/rooftop patio & they're open late! I overindulged by ordering "The David Chang" which included premium Australian beef, streaky bacon, fried egg, sliced beetroot & tomato, American cheddar cheese, butter lettuce and their special mustard seed burger sauce! I swapped it out on a lettuce bun but you can also get it on the regular brioche bun! Accompanied by their delicious oozing cheesy fries, and a salted caramel, maple bacon and bourbon milkshake!

WTF!!! I was sooooo looking forward to this. Came here on the back of great reviews.. Instead I get a substandard burger that my local chippy can beat on any given day and cooked by a Greek granny!! I don't know what everyone else is having but my double double was just 2 thin patties in a big ass bun... bottom is like 2 x bread loaf ends and in between are a couple of pickles and jalapeños!!! and it's $17!!!! I can ramble at least 7 other venues that are not high on my ranking that can beat this hands down! There's no complexity no fantastic sauce no fantastic slaw???!?!? No nothing!! So what's the big deal everyone???!? There's nothing that stands out! not even the patty can save it! All I can taste is the bread and the jalapeño and slight pickle. Ordered the chips and Korean popcorn chicken. Don't bother on both!! Chips are dry and the sauce on the Korean chicken is too sweet. I guess each to their own and the above is my opinion only. YMMV. Friends had the Thanos (previously Francis Underwood) and the McDowell. Feedback was that the McDowell was good. The Big Mac style sauce made it. Whereas the Thanos was a let down. Patty was already cold by time you get through the mac n cheese croquette.

I love this place! Actually now looking back on it, I'm surprised I haven't been back since my first visit a month ago. Time to change that I think! Funky set up upstairs, they've really worked the space well, with plenty of seating options for small/large groups - awesome trailer like seating, which could accomodaste up to 15 people I'd guess. Super funky! Burgers were so delish, and finished it off with one of their milkshakes - not a combination I'd reccommed, but if your eyes are bigger than your belly (like mine on this occation) I am not one to judge.

I'm torn writing this review. On the one hand the food was prepared and delivered quickly, the beef patty was actually flavorful and beefy (meaning they actually used seasoning which can be hard to find in Australia). The bun was toasted and the grains added a nice density without being heavy. The beer battered chips were good, crispy without being greasy. And, they have ketchup packets by golly! Quick service apparently also comes with careless order taking. I had requested no mustard, but was given extra mustard on my burger. Luckily the meat and cheese croquet were able to handle the sheer volume and explosive mustard flavor. The strawberry milkshake is apparently a literally translation from the English the rest of the world speaks because they took strawberry syrup, dropped it into 2% milk, and stirred-- strawberry milk in the rest of the free world, but I'm supposed to be convinced that in Australia that's called a shake? No way. Otherwise I would return for the straight up burger-- hold the mustard.

We saw a lot of hype about Grand Trailer Park Taverna all over our Instagram explore feed, so we decided to check them out on a Saturday night. It has a great location in the heart of the CBD. When we arrived at the venue, we walked upstairs and were greeted by a friendly staff member. It was bustling with people, and we were notified that it would be between a half an hour and forty minute. She took down our contact number so we could go out and explore the city while we waited. To avoid this we definitely recommend that a reservation is made in advance, which they happily accept. After approximately half an hour, we were called and notified that a table was ready for us - so we headed back over. The hostess took us over to our table, telling us that we would be sharing a table with other people. This was a little daunting as we are both awkward turtles... but it worked out fine, and we sat with some lovely people. The restaurant has a greatly consistent theme throughout, and also serves alcohol, which is not particularly common of a burger place. We think it was a good addition - especially considering the location. After reading through the menu, we headed over to the bar to order our burgers and shakes. We both ordered the Cynthia Benson burger with an added beef patty and a Kinder Surprise shake. Overall, we were pretty impressed with the food. The Cynthia Benson burger has since been changed to a different burger - replacing the mushroom patty with a chickpea patty. The mushroom patty was soft and spicy which gave the burger a punch. The beef was tasty, and all the other elements in the burger worked well together. Unfortunately due to the fact that we were so hungry and excited, we forgot to take some photos of our burgers. The Kinder Surprise shakes were definitely a standout! They tasted exactly like Kinder Surprise, and had a very cute presentation with the Kinder Surprise chocolates on top. The price of $12.00 seemed a little steep, but it ended up being worth it. They also had an alcoholic version available for $21.00. With a great atmosphere, yummy food and convenient location, this is a burger restaurant that is well worth checking out.

To date this is the best burger I have eaten in Melbourne! When walking up the stairs to the venue one may have thought they were entering a dark, dingy burger joint but it is anything but. The space is awesome - some actual trailers that you can sit in and other wooden table and chairs (think park benches) spread throughout the light filled venue. There is a cane basket on every table with your usual condiments, along with refresher towels (which you'll likely need at the conclusion of your meal) and brown paper bags for you to take home any leftovers, however the most exciting addition to this little basket of goodies for me (and from the people at the table next to ours going by their squeal of excitement that had mirrored mine only 5 minutes earlier) was the little saxa chicken salt - the thing that turns good chips into fan-bloody-tastic ones! But enough of the freebies, and onto the stuff we actually paid for, and the star of the show, the burgers! On a delicious sesame seed topped brioche bun, I stuck with a classic and the first option on the menu, the KSA. The meat was tender, the special sauce everything you want to complement a burger and just the right amount of greenery to make you feel that little bit better about yourself for downing a burger. I had just a one or two little things that is preventing me from awarding them with five stars. Firstly (and I realise this is subjective), but I felt the patty was just a bit overcooked. It was still tasty, but it did not have the juiciness that one does when it's cooked to perfection and has that bit of pinkness to the middle of the patty. And my only other minor gripe was that the staff didn't ask about how we enjoyed them when collecting the plates and were gone so fast I didn't have the opportunity to bring anything up - I know it's "only" a burger restaurant, but I don't think that's reason to not ask how a paying customer enjoyed their meal - I would have liked the opportunity to just note my minor issue with how the patty was cooked to pass this onto the chef... All in all, a great experience and I will definitely return to try another delicious creation, but just may request a burger cooked for a little bit less than normal!

This place popped up on my Yelp feed every so often, and despite not being a huge hamburger fan decided to go and check it out (in fact I seem to be finding myself visiting quite a few burger joints, but I suspect it has more to do with going out to my way to promote anything that is not McDonalds). Anyway, the layout of this place is pretty cool - despite being on the first floor, it has a number of faux trailers contiaing booths, which certainly adds to the feel. They also have smaller tables, and benches that look out over the city. The burgers themselves weren't that crash hot, but maybe it was the one I had - the Atomic Burger. It isn't the cheapest of places but certainly worth checking out.

Git there early, n' be hungry!! Da restaurant layout will accommodate both big-ass n' lil' small-ass crews so brang a big-ass crew of just a playa yo, but it ain't no stoppin cause I be still poppin'. Settle up in n' enjoy. I had tha atomic burger. Dat shiznit was amazing. Beef pattie, cheese, kransky sausage n' a funky-ass bunch of other thangs fo' realz. All served on they brioche bun.. yo. Heaven. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy fo' realz. As a side I had tha croquette which I'd highly recommend yo, but it ain't no stoppin cause I be still poppin'. Da chips I'd take dem all leave em. Yo ass have gots ta try one of tha loaded shakes. I had tha blue one (can't remember tha name) n' dat shiznit was mad drinkable. For dessert four of our asses shared tha waffles. OMG they was good. Y'all KNOW dat! I be fly as as a' falcon, soarin all up in tha sky dawwwwg! And served wit a whole jar of Nutella. Enough holla'd.

Somebody call the doctor because my heart skipped a beat after eating here...due to clogged arteries and how delicious this place is. Found this place trawling IG accounts and man does this place not disappoint! Burgers are on the more expensive side but you get great bang for buck, as the burgers are pretty hefty and you can customize them however you want. I ordered the Francis Underwood and added another patty...skipping out on another Mac & Cheese croquette. First burger in Melbourne in two years, and loved every bite of it...and puts several Sydney burgers to shame. Friends tried the other burgers and all liked them as well, and we don't even like brioche buns. Highly recommend.

A+ burgers from bun to bacon. I especially liked the wide variety to choose from. Being hungry, I chose the double patty and cheese option. Brilliant. Next time, I will try the burger with Kransky. Can't wait to return. Wash down your order with an alcoholic milkshake and candied bacon and, there you have it, calories blown for the day. Well worth it though! For the finale, a jar of Nutella with dessert was pure awesomeness. No trailor park trash here ya'all.

The Grand Park Taverna was recommended to me by a friend on Facebook. I was looking forward to having a 'blowout' meal, and this definitely provided the goods with options such as ridiculously large burgers, fries, mac & cheese croquettes, spiked spiders and waffles. There was even a waffle stack on the menu for 4 people! I chose the nutella waffles, beer battered fries and a raspberry spiked spider. All were good, and the waffles had a really nice consistency- crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. If i could criticise anything, it would be that my meal didn't arrive to the table til 15-20 mins after my friend's had, by which stage, she had all but finished her meal. Regardless, I would go back, and recommend friends. Just a bit of advice though- it's not wise to go here before going out on the town. The food portions are so large that you'll be in a food coma for a few hours afterwards.

You know the feeling you get when you leave a place and all you can think about is coming back? That's how I felt after my first date at Grand Trailer Park Taverna. First things first, it's in an ideal location in the Paris end of Bourke Street in the CBD. The place itself is cool, really cool - vintage caravans, picnic tables and chairs (no you're not outside!), motorhomes and my geeky side's personal favourite - the superhero figurines on display at the bar. The design is retro and very different from the other burger joints I've been to but you know what? I love it! On the menu, you've got burgers, shakes, a good selection of beers and cocktails and the desserts.. Well, what more would you want, right? I had the double double plus the potato mac and cheese and they were delicious!.... No complaints with the burger whatsoever - good meat to bun ratio, juicy patty and fresh and silky brioche bun. For dessert, we shared the giant waffle stack and wow oh wow! It was amazing! It was a great first date and I can't wait to return!

If you're a group of 4-8 people, looking for a casual place to sit around and have a chat, a drink and some burgers, this should be your first stop. Definitely geared towards small groups, this place is set out like a food truck picnic grounds. Sections of picnic tables, long bar tables and even booths in cut-out caravans fill this on-trend burger bar. The menu is focused on three things; burgers, booze and dessert. The burgers are good value (my single patty burger only set me back $7.50), the milkshakes are boozy and the desserts are just ridonkulous. Again leading me to believe this is a place for groups, there's no way any one is getting through their nutella waffles without enough reinforcements. As for the burgers themselves? Tasty. I got the CB1 and found it really stingy on a lot of ingredients. I mostly chose this one because I wanted pickles, but the gerkins in this burger were almost as sad as the ones we used to flick on windows as kids. Things improved when I asked for a side of jalapenos to throw in there and helped myself to the condiments to pack a bit more punch. A little more of everything would have scored them more points in my book. I wouldn't come here alone and I would probably pass it up for another less gimmicky option in the CBD if I wasn't in a group because there are other burgers I prefer, but if I had plans to kick back with mates for a bit and needed a fun, casual spot to keep things lively then I would definitely put this on my list for places to go.

When my wife showed me a picture of a burger from Grand Trailer Park Taverna, it was obvious that I'd have to visit, and visit soon. But it was after I read a copy of their menu and found their "Spiked Milkshakes" that I prioritised the visit to IMMEDIATELY. Salted caramel. Maple bacon. AND MAKER'S MARK BOURBON. In a MILKSHAKE. Ron Swanson is smiling upon you, Grand Trailer Park Taverna, and he is pleased. Putting aside my obvious hobby for liver damage, let's talk about the burgers. No, actually, don't talk about them. EAT THEM. Go. Go now. Eat. Make "mmmmm" sounds. Revel in the glory that being an omnivore provides. I had The Atomic and it was outstanding. My wife had the CB1, but was still hungry at the end. It's a petite cheeseburger, and were it not for a few other factors, I'd have encouraged her to get another one, and/or dessert. And it's those other factors that things fell down for me at the Trailer Park... It was very, very warm inside. I don't know if they don't HAVE air conditioning, or if it merely couldn't keep up, but with it being 33C outside, it really wasn't feeling much cooler inside. Noticed a lot of people sweating on their brows, and it wasn't the good meat-sweats kinda way. Secondly, and, well, this is a deal breaker for me: Smoke. Grand Trailer Park Taverna has an "outside" balcony where people can eat and/or smoke. Unfortunately, this is still legal in Victoria, unlike many other parts of Australia. The smoke does not stay outside. The doors to the balcony are not very good and regularly stopped open about 30-40 cm...and even when they were closed, it wasn't much of a seal, and the frequent in/out of people and lost staff meant that the stench of cigarette smoke very much permeated the tables near the balcony. The Grand Trailer Park Taverna makes use of the non-table-service standard of numbered signs to indicate where a meal should be delivered - but the staff couldn't always spot the numbers and would tend to wander from inside to outside and then back inside -- I get that, it happens, tough to see them, but, the smoke, ah, well, nope, can't say "OK" to that. And the final point that keeps this from getting four stars from me: The music. Sure, I'm a GET OFF MY LAWN old guy, but not everyone wants loud rap/hip-hop/whatever blasting as they have a meal. Maybe it was just the DJ of the hour, dunno, but something a bit more acceptable to a general audience would have been appreciated, and perhaps a touch softer. I should add, were it not for the Spiked Milkshakes, I wouldn't have given three stars, it'd have been two. There are a LOT of burger places appearing in Melbourne right now, and I love that, but it's not the burgers alone that makes this place worth visiting, it's the rest of the menu. The staff that we interacted with were incredibly friendly. Very helpful, seemed genuinely interested that we had a good time. I would also like to take this opportunity to apologise to my wife if I was grumpypants because of the smoke & music & heat - I could tell she really wanted dessert and I was honestly too full to consider it, and with the other factors my motivation for sticking around was not optimal. I promise next time we'll get the waffle stack thing, it looks amazing. Which means, yes, there WILL be a next time. I just need to hope some of the issues above get addressed, or, we visit when it's not nearly as busy and hope for the best.

Having tried most of Melbourne's "best burgers" I'd say this place is on par with the others. The patties are thick and wide enough to ensure you get some in every bite. The various burgers they offer are each pretty good. The first burger I had here (The Ivan Drago) was incredible. Since that time I've been chasing the high. I've tried a few others and the Ivan Drago is still the best. Unfortunately subsequent Dragos haven't been as good as my first, but they've still been pretty good! The sweets look amazing but I've never had any space for them after a burger because both sweets and burger are very large. If you want to give them a go you could do what the table next to me did -- one burger and one sweet shared between two. Seemed like the right amount of food. It's insanely busy for a burger place on popular nights (ie lines and waiting lists) but here's heaps of space at lunch on weekends so I'd suggest you try then.

The music is a bit much (yap hop rap crap) which doesn't suit the trailer park theme, unless this is the trailer park on 8 Mile Road and Eminem is on his way. I'd expect something a bit more retro rock n roll or Patsy Cline. But maybe I'm just getting old. Ordered the Francis Underwood burger which comes with a Mac and cheese croquette. I've never had mac and cheese in a burger before! Francis would need to spend a few hours on his rowing machine to work this baby off. Service super fast and very friendly. Highly recommend the Grand Trailer Park Taverna. There's seating available in caravan booths, lots of tables and benches plus an outdoor area overlooking Bourke Street. Didn't try the spiked milkshakes, but the bar looks super cute. Overall a very good burger.

This is so sad, but we were discriminated at this place. We were 4 friends, asked to sit by a 6-seat table by the window, because the 4-people tables were very small and dark. The host didn't let us sit there and literally kicked us although we very politely requested to change our table. I think the only reason was we had an accent and we are foreigners. 1 minute after we said we will then leave because we cannot fit the 4-people table, he let an Australian couple to sit on the exact same table. This was one of our favorite restaurants, so I am really sad that the host discriminated us. The manager later apologized but did not talk to the host. We ended up not eating there, and we will never go there again. So if you don't have Australian English, avoid this place...I should also say that when we went, the place was not very full and there were many empty tables.

Loved the burgers here. Nice homemade beef patties, great beer battered chips and the truffle mayo was yummy. Nice quirky atmosphere too and reasonably priced.

The burgers enjoyed here by myself and two mates were just unbelievable. Imagine this: Bun - mayo - beef - bacon - kransky - cheese - beef - bacon - kransky - cheese - grilled onion - BBQ sauce - bun. If that doesn't get your tastebuds flowing then I don't know what will. And not only was the ingredients top notch, but the quality was even better. Every bite melted in your mouth, and there was very little mess dispute the size of the thing. If you're not a fan of burgers, unfortunately the place isn't for you, as the menu is entirely burgers (which suited me just fine!). There is a great choice of craft beer, ciders and cocktails available. And the all important chips rating: definite buy - they were properly fried and salted. It amazes me how many places cannot to that properly, but thats for another day I guess.... Definitely make the trip into the city to check this place out. You won't regret it.

I have been here 4 times since my first visit and review and they are always consistent with their burgers and service. This is a place I always recommend to people when they ask where is the best burger joint in the city. The guys behind GTP are the same as the DPav and like The Dandenong Pavilion this place is awesome! Friendly staff, great burgers, perfect atmosphere, a view of the best city in the world and affordable prices.

Went to this little gem twice while i was visiting all the food on both times was great. The food came out quick and was one of the best burgers i have had. You can go to this place if your traveling by your self.

I really love this place! Having been 4 or 5 times, it is always consistent. The burgers are some of the best around but the show stoppers are the alcoholic milkshakes. They really will bring all the boys to the yard! The interior decor is funky and cool and the music suits. Pop hits and a lot of motown. Can't go wrong. The service is quick and efficient if not the friendliest around but it fits the venue. These guys also own the Dandenong Pavilion which is amazing and worth a visit.

Amazing food and atmosphere. The place actually has trailers that you can sit it, making the whole experience be so authentic. The food is out of this work, add mac and cheese to any burger to really take it to the next level. Their boozy milkshakes are amazing as well. They should add onion rings to the menu though!

I had high hopes for this place. It's all about gluttony which usually leads to delicious food. The place has an interesting decor and balcony seating which is a plus. You have to wait to be seated, then order from the bar. Kind of seems like the worst of both worlds? But not terrible. I had the Francis Underwood burger which has the mac and cheese croquette. I love mac and cheese, as well as cheeseburgers, so I was fired up. It was disappointing. The mac and cheese was covered in mustard and the combination tasted off. The burger itself was decent, but the package unsatisfying. The chips were pretty awful. Overcooked and overbattered. Portions are big, not too bad for the price. A regular burger would be ok but if the chips are off it isn't worth it. I didn't finish the burger or the chips... very rare for me! I probably wouldn't go back.

Certainly the best chili cheese fries ever! And the burgers are absolutely delicious. All four of us who ate here together today agree that we will be back. The ambience is great, and the food absolutely superb.

From the outside, this place looks incredibly dingy; above a 7/11, just a balcony visible surrounded by dated yellow bricks. But inside? This place is rad! There are big trailers scattered throughout the room that serve as booths, as well as picnic tables for eating with the masses. The condiments on each table are very reminiscent of an American diner (as are the desserts... but more on that later!). Now, the drinks list. Simply awesome. Alcoholic milkshakes?! My partner had the alcoholic PB&J shake, and it tasted EXACTLY like a peanut butter and strawberry jam (jelly) sandwich! I would warn that I found it way too sweet, and would only be able to stomach a third of a shake... so perhaps find a friend and slurp in sync? I went for the Fog City sangria; 500mL of sangria for $10, served with a tall glass filled with ice and fruit. Super reasonable prices, and a great variety. The food was phe-nom-enal. (Heh, nom, geddit?) I had the vegie burger, which was a crumbly, mushroomy concoction that tasted like happiness. My partner went for the Double (twice the meat, to make up for my meatlessness), and our two other dining companions went for the one with a Mac and Cheese croquette inside. While delicious, they said that the cheesy pasta was a bit excessive inside an already humungous burger. So bring your appetite! The chips were my favourite part - perfectly salty, thick, and tasted like actual potato. Not everyone's cup of tea; but mine, for sure. Now, the part you've been waiting for... the Nutella waffles. My god, yes. We went for a single stack as we were already stuffed from dinner, however their grand stack is served with YOUR OWN TUB OF NUTELLA. Excessive? Perhaps... but Delicious. And damn fun.

Whilst I was a little sad to see the tacky, yet iconic Mai Tai close, I had a fantastic time at Grand Trailer Park Taverna, which has opened in its place. The spiked milkshake was 11/10 delicious - I recommend the Peanut Butter & Jelly Milkshake for anyone who loves peanut butter The brioche buns for the the burgers are light and delicious, reducing the level of food coma. The mac & cheese croquette could have been a bit more salty, b but was delicious none-the-less. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and aside from their fancy signature cocktails, I also had one of the best Negroni's ever, crafted by the really delightful British bartender who has now enlightened me with regard to both the existence, and deliciousness of Sloe Gin. As a side note, the ladies room was spotless, and lovely. An area so often overlooked that can ruin your overall experience. We will be back! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!

Grand Trailer served me the best burger I've ever had. Whoever thought to put a mac'n'cheese croquette inside a burger is a visionary and genius. Wish I had the gut to try the chilli fries. When I went up to order, I asked for the Francis Underwood (beautiful), my girlfriend got the KSA (it was everything that the classic burger could hope to be, and the perfect smaller option), and small fries. The waitress asked if small fries would be enough, but then asked if I wanted the Francis Underwood and nodded in agreement that small fries would be enough. The decor was very cool, loved the different spaces inside. We went at around 2pm on a Saturday, and it was reasonably busy. We were too full to try dessert afterwards, but next time!

We had a reservation here on Friday for a colleague's farewell party. We had the Mac&Cheese croquettes, chili fries, reg fries and a variety of the burgers. The food was good, but the kitchen "forgot" four of the burgers so the entire party weren't able to eat all together. I don't understand how this happened, as you go up to order and pay first and then they bring it to your table. We had some beer in its own self-Serve pitcher w its own pouring spout, which was fun. One of the girls ordered the Kinder Egg & Nutella milkshake, which looked great.

The Grand Trailer Park Taverna has the novelty factor down. Think American diner, but in a trailer park. You can either sit at picnic tables or find a seat in a semi-open caravan. This place is lively, and popular with groups. The music isn't too loud which is just as well considering how full this place always seems to be. The burgers are fairly standard for the gourmet burgers of Melbourne, with a lot of cheese and meat on offer. The real highlight is the alcoholic milkshakes. Priced between $17- 23 they seem a little on the steep side, but best think of them as a cocktail, not a milkshake. I personally loved the Burbon, Salted Caramel milkshake with maple bacon to top it off. If you're dining with vegetarians they might find the food limiting, as there is only one burger on the menu that is sans meat. If they are a sweet tooth, they might be tempted by the desserts or waffles. There seems to be an offering of a $34 waffle meal for 4 people, which peaks my interest... now to find 3 friends who are willing to go in with me.

This place is AMAZEBALLS!! If not for yelp, I'd have never stumbled across it which would have been a damn shame because it is the bomb diggity. The entrance is easy to bypass but once located, we ascended the chicly lit stairway to behold an amazingly themed establishment. It's like an upmarket trailer park with actual trailers come seating. Our party of four chose a park bench style table, in the more well lit area centrally located. The music was pumping and it was a killer playlist, I was totally digging it. The smell of the burger from the table to my immediate left had my mouth watering! Our meals came (on trailer park style metal trays - cute!), two of us had the (something) chunk, one of us had a KSA and I chose the Francis Underwood. Holy shitballs!! I can't recommend that burger higher if I tried. Everything about it was so-effing-good, from the tangy special sauce to the all dinky-di beef patty to the Mac & Cheese croquette, you better bet I inhaled that thing like it was going to disappear if I didn't. I did have to force feed a few bites to my partner because it was so big I couldn't handle it all on my own but I tried a few chips (handcut - two thumbs up) and I was STUFFED!! This is the part where I should point out I also indulged in a smores milkshake which also tickled my fancy pretty hard. The rest of my party also loved their meals, even stating we'd be returning before we head back to Perth in a couple of days. Four Burgers, a large chips, an extra croquette and my redic good milkshake, $103.00. 100% recommend.

Finally made it here after plenty of "I really need to get to Trailer Park" talk. A cool mix of burgers & snacks (think the Frank Underwood burger, complete with a mac & cheese croquette), adorn the wide ranging menu that includes a decent beer selection, cocktails & ALCOHOLIC MILKSHAKES! The food was decently priced, with the shakes around $17. The makers mark, bacon & salted caramel milkshake was pretty good, as was the Mexican cola & bourbon spider. I wasn't overly hungry so didn't try a burger, but looked similar to you Mr Burger almost sloppy joe with brioche style, but the Mac & Cheese croquet and some hand cut, still with skin, chips hit my belly and I was all the better for it :) We arrived at 545 on a cold Friday and walked straight into a table for 2, but when leaving at 630ish, noticed there was a bit of a wait for tables Fun Fact: the interior design is just like the caravan park your youth, with picnic tables and even a 60's style van. There's a balcony too if you get there early enough to fit on it - I'll definitely be back to check this out in summer!

What can I say. Wow!!! The burger is very good and the chili cheese fries are great with abbot of a kick. By Melbourne standards the prices are very good and reasonable. The quality is very good.

MMMMMMM burgers! Ok so first up this place is like not outside, which call me crazy I kinda figured it would be given the name? No, just me? Well then, it is inside & upstairs. Pretty sweet layout, in the theme of a trailer park #imaginethat I was keen as a bean to try the makers mark, salted caramel & maple bacon milkshake, most people turn their noses up when I mention it but omg it was on a different level of goodness. To my burger I had the atomic, burger pattie, chilli cheese kransky, mayo, bbq sauce, bacon & a bunch of other stuff I can't currently remember. YUM! All my dining buddies were super impressed & there was about 8 of us so winners on all fronts. We were advised of about a 20min wait but only waited about 5, not sure if this was due to our group size or they make you think it's longer so you are impressed when you get in quicker. Either way it was defs burger goodness.

Maybe they were just having an off night, but it was probably one of the least satisfying meals I have ever had. You had to eat half the bun before you even hit meat and there was so much mustard it made the bun so soggy and was just so overpowering. The onion rings were barely warm, had hardly any onion and were just like big clumps of deep fried batter. Very disappointing meal for our first night in Melbourne.

It is an experience, the food is good, the prices vary depends on the ingredients start from $20 per person. I got the KSA with onion rings (starting basic) All together is good and goes well together but once you break it down I have some options about it. The bread, is a delight. Very tasty on its own but the mustard kinda overcome it and you can really taste how sweet and delicious it is ... so maybe less mastered. The beef, is presented medium. I didn't quite enjoy it on its own it tasted better with the strong taste cheese. It does melt in your mouth when it's hot but turns into plastic if you didn't eat fast. I recommend using bread crumbs or mozzarella cheese when making the beef, it will stay moist and can't get enough of. Also maybe go with a medium well. Veggies are fresh Onion rings, are good. Nothing special I can see why they have double beef slices as an option, they are quite tender when hot and a bit thin. Overall the environment feels like a Bayron Bay vibes especially the balcony area. It is an experience if you ask me.. but I tasted better beef burgers in other countries so I'll keep trying other burger joints in Melbourne in the search for that perfection that I know exist ********** long stairs, no lift- smoking allowed on the terrace ********

Very average burger. Bun too thick, patty too thin and over cooked. Tomato, cheese and lettuce very good quality. Sauce ok. Fell short on 2 key ingredients hence the 1 star, nice venue and atmosphere.

A beautifully fitted out Trailer Park themed venue with some amazing burgers. The best thing you can do is get a burger with a mac and cheese croquette stuffed in the middle. They are a little on the pricey side, with the better burgers sitting at around $16 - $18. But if you're after a decent burger in the city then it's worth a visit.

Great food great cider great ambiance great company great service. Home away from home! Could sit here all night since such a great track rolling

A great place for a beer and a burger in a newly fit-out bar/restaurant/cafe/diner/whatever you want it to be. The burgers are an American style and are really tasty. If you can get a seat out on the balcony - it's an awesome place to eat, drink and watch the world pass by.

I ordered the David Chang burger. With Australian beef, cheddar cheese, bacon that wasn't too tough but still crispy, egg, tomato, lettuce, beetroot, special burger sauce, and mustard on a toasted brioche bun. It was absolutely excellent and I would get it again. I have been to many well known and excellent burger joints, this would have to be right up there with the best I've been to. The place was bustling, but the friendly staff got our burgers to us very quickly. I will go back there again most definitely! Check em out on Instagram. And check me out too @ayrtonevans

THE best burgers in Melbourne. Yes I did just say that! Quirky place with a complete spectrum of clientele from college students to over 50s. Even if you only go once, you'll enjoy the juicy burgers.

Loved the Francis Underwood burger with the potato mac & cheese croquette in it. So yum! Chips were good and topped it off with a Nutella doughnut. Very full afterwards, but worth it.

One of the best burgers in Melbourne! Keen to come back here asap as everything on the menu looks delicious including the desserts and cocktails! Awesome fit out too and good service.

Delicious but pricey. Great atmosphere and friendly staff. I tried the Francis mac n cheese croquet burger that everyone raves about and was not disappointed. It's a little squashy in there, that would be my only criticism if I were looking for one.

Fantastic American style (but better) burgers with interesting flavour combinations. A bit on the pricy side for what you get, but still totally worth it. The dessert menu looks mega awesome. Plus there are spiked milkshakes. The space is really cool, and in traditional Melbourne style, slightly hard to find- even though it is on a major street. Still, definitely worth a visit!

This place is as good as it gets for burgers. I've been there twice so far and have gotten the Francis Underwood both times. It is just as incredible as everyone describes. The mac and cheese and potato croquette truly puts the burger over the edge and makes for a delicious meal. I also recommend the desserts...the waffles are amazing!

The food was great and the atmosphere was cool, but $16 dollars for a burger with no chips or sides is way over priced.
