Impressive burger even with the hype!! I had the bacon and egg burger with Jalepeno and it was delicious. I felt like I might have to disconnect my jaw to get around it. read more

Look. I know online says brodburger is only number 2 in terms of burgers. But if this is number 2 I don't know what's number 1!? I had the Delux. It was a stupidly expensive burger but it was soooooo good! The meat, the egg, the mayo. Mamamiya! Now you're like, hang on a sec, why only 4 stars? Well I also ordered the onion rings and here, man the batter was sooooooo thick I don't know what's going on there... so that's a star taken. read more

Brodburger - Burgers Near Me - Kingston, ACT

Brod has set THE Standard for burgers in Canberra, the freshness, the taste ,the quality, repeats itself every single visit and never disappoints- Cannot be beaten locally for the Quality Burger feed experience read more

Food is good and filling. Ordered over the phone and service was promt. Ambiance is good - it is inside a brewery and has outside seating.

I just spent 4 years in the US. My mum would call me and tell me about this burger place that had just opened up in Canberra. I'd be like, "yeah, mum, I'm in the US. They do pretty good burgers here, too." Which they might, but I gotta say, Brodburger is worth calling the US about. They're really that good. These burgers are big; the bread is great (the Americans can't beat this); the meat is done really well and the aioli and relish they put on these burgers finish them perfectly. They taste like a burger that someone spent a long time trying to get right. And if you're really, really hungry, you can venture into "unfinishable" business with the Broddeluxe. This thing is two beef patties, two eggs and all the associated toppings. I'm no lightweight but I've ordered this thing more than I've been able to finish it (and... when I have finished it, there's been a bellyache involved for a few hours afterwards). It's huge. Great fries and some really good little desserts close out the food side. The location itself is great, with a bright open building in the Glassworks. On the negative side: the wait when things get busy can be horrendous. We're talking up to an hour. (Call ahead and order takeout!). The staff can get overwhelmed and as some of the other reviewers have noted, the tables can be left uncleaned. And there can be a scarcity of tables in peak times, too. But none of this can detract from what is one hell of a burger right here in the nation's capital. read more

Brodburger - Big, delicious burgers! - Burgers Near Me - Kingston, ACT

Recommended and well-reviewed it was quite fun to try a burger at this Canberra 'institution'. Situated no longer in a red caravan but in the cool glassworks (think Brisbane Powerhouse, but smaller) the setting is nice and airy. Our wait to order was short, but burger wait time was a bit upward of 30 minutes (which was announced, so no unexpected surprise). The double cheese burger was huge, but what would you expect for close to $20? My regular burger had fresh ingredients and tasted that way but the meat/patty was devoid of any juiciness. Pros: friendly staff, cool place Cons: sad fries, not a grrreat burger, the wait Conclusion: another place next time read more

Brodburger - Double cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - Kingston, ACT

The boy and I are in Canberra for the weekend and thought we'd try the only burger joint in ACT on the Australia's 50 Best Burgers list. After a morning of sight seeing we arrived around 1.45pm and the place was packed. We made our way to the front counter, the space is very small with so many people cramming in to order and pick up take-away orders. As soon as we stepped up to the counter we were warned there was a 30-45 minute wait, we thought we had to wait for a table anyway so why not. The only problem we had... So many choices, so little time! I ended up choosing the original cheeseburger with swiss cheese and a side of 6 onion rings because hello, onion rings! The boy ordered the double cheeseburger with cheddar cheese (no pickles as always) and a side of chips. We also grabbed a 4 pines alcoholic ginger beer a heineken and headed back out to the dining area to find a table. Straight away we found a seat at the end of one of the tables outside, it quickly became apparent though that it was getting ready to rain with the odd spot hitting us so we scoped a seat inside and made our move. Lucky we did, not 5 minutes later it had started pouring with rain. After just under 45 minutes our burgers arrived. They smelled absolutely delicious and tasted even better! Mine had the right amount of sauce, a bit heavy on the pickles but once I removed a couple it was perfect. The onion rings came with an amazing garlic herb sauce, yum! I can see why it made the best burgers list. The boy however struggled with his double cheeseburger but after removing one of the patties was able to enjoy it. I would also highly recommend the 4 Pines Ginger Beer... I'm not a big drinker however I was in love, the boy had to buy another one as i stole his. The only downside to the experience was the cleanliness of the tables, although the rubbish was removed they weren't really wiped down. Also the outdoor dining area is not undercover so when it rained it was very cramped inside which made it very stuffy. read more

Following all the rave reviews about this place, decided to go for dinner on our first night in Canberra. We arrived early and so we got a table quite easily, however our burgers still took a solid 40 minutes to arrive (probably because they do a lot of takeaway orders as well). Be warned, the serving portions are big. We struggled to finish our burgers and calamari and had to dump most of our chips by the end. However, the burger IS delicious and you certainly won't be disappointed if you've come here to smother your face in cheesy, greasy and ridiculously good food! The calamari was fresh (not those calamari rings you find everywhere else) however it was a shame that we were too full by the end to enjoy them properly! The location is stunning, with floor to ceiling glass walls allowing for sweeping views of the new Kingston development. It got super packed later on with dinner rush hour but I guess that's just testimony of how popular this place is. Another fantastic non-Maccas burger joint which sells real fast food! read more

Bloody hell, this is the best burger I've had. We waited an hour for our food, and yes, it was absolutely worth it. Thank you for not using brioche. Thank you for a choice of cheeses and the wide menu selection. Thank Canberra for the marathon so I had a chance to try this. read more

Best burger I've had in Australia! I know that this is a big call, but I am willing to make it. Knowing this, you'll understand when you come to this place and it is crowded more than a church at the end of the world. And as of their signs clearly states, this isn't McDonalds so don't expect fast food - so in other words, prepare to wait. But putting that all side, great burger. Just a tip, no matter how hungry you think you are, don't get two patties, just get the one. Trust me - this is a big burger. There was a moment a few days ago, I was considering driving to Canberra just so I can have this burger again. Also, if you are lucky to get a table to sit - then they also offer you board games and card games to entertain you while you are awaiting for your burger. Some times before abuse this system and sit there after they finished eating. Just a note for everyone, once you have finished eating and see you a giant line of people waiting for seat - get up! Seriously one of my pet peeves. Anyway, thus in summary, try the burger here. read more

Brodburger - Burgers Near Me - Kingston, ACT

Truly epic burgers - perfectly cooked and no chance of going hungry with these monsters!

Prepare for filth. The conditions of the restaurant are appalling. The staff don't care and are inept at taking orders, adding up, or providing decent service. How hard is it to wipe down a table? Hygiene is lacking and I'm surprised there aren't rodents running around. But the burgers are why people come here, the hipsters from nearby public service buildings. Ours weren't cooked satisfactorily. More attention needs to be paid to cleanliness and basic food hygeine. read more

Brodburger - They do not clean tables at Bridburger - Burgers Near Me - Kingston, ACT

Best burgers in the ACT and probably N.S.W, place is small on table space but busy so get in early. In the old days, last year, it wasn't in common to see 15 people waiting around the old caravan for their orders, which reflects the goodness of the burger not slow service. The old place had well deserved cult status, be good to see the old caravan on the new site, even just as a momento read more

Brodburger - Front - Burgers Near Me - Kingston, ACT

Probably the best burgers in Canberra. After working in Sydney's inner west, where 'burger and beer' culture is abundant, I've been craving the same quality of burgers in Canberra. Whether it's the Brodburger van at Capital Brewing Co., or the Brodburger restaurant, the burgers and fries are always beautiful. read more

Forget Grill'd, this is the best Burger you can get anywhere in the capital, hell even NSW. I completely understand if you become slightly apprehensive as I tell you that the burgers are made out of a red caravan in a carpark south of the Lake Burley Griffin, but bear with me. This is something you have to try if you happen to be in Canberra. So what makes these caravan-sourced burgers so delicious? Sure the usual 30-50 minute wait whilst they freshly grill your burgers to perfection probably helps in making anything taste better, but in the case of Brodburger their burgers are simply that good. The menu is limited - there is a chicken burger, a fish burger or a vegetarian burger each with a choice of Brie, Swiss or Blue cheese on a freshly baked bun and for those who are really hungry, they can go for the Brodburger Deluxe... a monstrous tower of beef paddies, bacon, eggs and salad. But nothing beats the humble beef Brodburger + Blue cheese with that oh so delicious aioli and relish. The proportions are perfect, it's not too big, the flavours are just so balanced for a burger and it is completely satisfying. The very fact that there was a huge public backlash at the news that Brodburger was at risk of being booted out from their location says it all, really. There is a huge following of Brodburger fans in Canberra. Brodburger is soon to move from its current location in the Bowen Park carpark to a shop front near the Canberra Glassworks - which is actually a bit of a shame. There is something about the whole experience of driving to Bowen Park, being dismayed upon realising the length of the line outside the conspicuous red caravan adorned with outdoor lights next to a salmon-pink painted public toilet, the shutting of the fly screen after they take your order and money and the even longer wait while they get through each assigned number. The absolute joy of hearing your number being called out faintly from the caravan will never be replicated in a permanent store front. read more

It is not intuitive to associate great hamburger joints outside the US - even less so in Canberra. However one needs to get over this and understand Brodeburger deliver simply stunning hamburgers - they are world class and there are so many options to choose from. There are beef, chicken and fish. The bread roll is excellent and the ingredients are fresh and plentful. They are uniquely located on the lake side of the Canberra Glassworks where there is abundant parking...it is a comfortable place to eat and the 'eat in' service is good. They are not fast food....be prepared to wait and sometimes the queues can be long....however the wait will be worth it. read more

My husband is still drooling at the thought of Brodburger. The burgers definitely are yummy but FYI, the chips were a big disappointment (almost as crappy as McDonald's chips). Just order the burgers and don't waste space on the chips. The Brodburger deluxe is very huge, almost too huge to get your mouth around. We went there on a weeknight around 5:15 and beat the dinner rush. read more

Bloody oath this is exactly what I needed after a long and frustrating day. I didn't know that a burger could induce as much physical relaxation and mental euphoria as that first glass of relax-wine, but now that I know, I'll make an effort to explore this particular stimulant more often! Yes, the lines are long. My Brod-savvy housemate used the online ordering tool and we were #28 in the queue at 6pm on a Thursday. Here's the link, so you have no excuses: https://brodburger.qhopper.com/#/order-flow/discover-vendor My cheeseburger was perfect, the chippies were perfect, and the onion rings were great (sidenote: is it normal to use red/purple onions in onion rings? I think this was definitely my first time having that). I can't wait to come back with my partner for a lamb burger. read more

I've been here for 2.5 years and finally made it to brodburger. So, the burger I had was good. Tasty, good ingredients, well balanced, nice bread. The options are good, a range of fillings on the menu and cheeses. Prices are reasonable and having two sizes helped for sure. Don't get me wrong- the burger was great. But it really did not live up to the hype. It was a really good burger, but not the best I have, not life changing, and when the volume of traffic makes for a 45 minute wait? Hmm. read more

The burgers are good, their flavor derives from medium rare lean-ish meat and a garlic mayo. Fries are thin and very vanilla. The location is fine, with large communal tables and a speedy service. Oh, and a decent beer selection! But best burgers in Canberra? I hope not as there is plenty of room for improvement. read more

From out of town and was told about this place....freak'n amazing! Great atmosphere, amazing burgers, great Service....loved it read more

Brodburger - Ordered the BrodDelux (didn't realise it was going to be half a cow!). Burger was huge! - Burgers Near Me - Kingston, ACT

Waiting time here can be easily over 15-20 mins if you just walk in and dine in. There were lots of people picking up their orders whilst we were waiting for our burgers to be ready. Worth waiting though. I couldn't finish my burger (normal size)!! I liked the option of choosing types of cheese. The bun wasn't as great as I expected, but my husband liked it. So, I guess it's a matter of personal preference. I'd like to try different burger (had simple cheese burger) next time :-) read more

The Brodburger was a party in my mouth! So good! (Although we waited over an hour for our food... On a Tuesday... At 1.30pm... when hardly any people were in sight.) Everyone needs to experience Brodburger. But a tip to avoid severe hangriness: order beforehand via their website or app. read more

Just BRILLIANT! Even if you don't like glassworks, a visit to the Canberra Glassworks factory will not disappoint. This gem, hidden within the premises, produces some of the best burgers in the country. Yes - I mean it! read more

Burgers are really nice and expensive. The chips (fries) on the hand were like pencils. The atmosphere is noisy and cold.

Canberra's hidden gem. I have always wanted to try Brodburger, but never had the time or appetite to do so. Came with a friend from interstate, and i'm glad we went. At 6pm, we were just beating the dinnertime rush, and were able to score a seat inside. The burgers are huge, and the quality is top-notch too. Yes, there is a wait, but it is worth it. And that's coming from someone who hates waiting for food. read more

We give Brodburger a delicious 4.5!! As "Ricky C." said in his review, Brodburger used to be in a caravan but has since taken over the Canberra Glassworks café. My girlfriend and I like riding there on the weekends. They sell "gourmet burgers", which are incredibly delicious for a cheap $14. The new place is quite nice, so you should go check it out if you haven't already. This place is definitely one of the best places to eat out in Canberra, don't miss out. Food (2/2): These burgers are sooo good. They come in four main flavours: beef, chicken, fish, and a veggie patty option. You can choose 1 of 3 cheese types: brie, swiss, or blue. You can also ask for chips (+$2.50) which are quite good. Which one do we recommend? I would say the beef one for a classic experience, but the chicken one is my girlfriend's favourite, so I guess you are going to have to go and help us decide! Ambiance (0.5/1): Although the place is quite nice, we used to like the old caravan better. However, it's not like it was their decision to move (the government made them). The reason why we didn't give it the full star is because they didn't have enough seating for everyone even though they seem to have ample space. Service (1/1): The wait for the burgers is long, but this is the way it has always been, and you can't blame them for being so delicious. The staff were friendly and polite. The place also seemed to be quite clean, no complaints there. Other stuff (1/1): These burgers are definitely worth more than the money you are asked for them. It is a great place for families too: they have smaller burger options for kids and people usually go there with their pets on the weekends. read more

These are very tasty burgers. You can get them with a choice of Swiss, Brie and Blue cheese (my favourite is blue). The meat isn't overdone and the vegetarian is actually vegetables, not just a falafel patty. The chips are good too. There's always a bit of a delay (it isn't fast food!) but it's worth the wait. Well done! read more

Have been here a few times. There will be a wait however the wait is worth it. You need to get there early if you don't want to wait so just get a takeaway order. read more

Great burgers, though massive wait times. Worth ordering ahead, but a broddelux with blue cheese is worth the wait.

The brodburger with egg, bacon, and blue cheese is my favorite burger in all the world. I suggest placing an order online as wait times can be up to an hour. read more

Amazing burgers but terrible service. Arrived at 11:30am on a Thursday with a group of 4 people, one 2 year old and a baby. The restaurant had only one person in it. But the wait for a burger was over 1 hour! It seems online orders take preference to any orders placed in the restaurant. Left and went to 'Beef & Barley'. Come on Brodburger, sort it out! read more

Without doubt one of the best burger places in Australia. Burgers are big, and I mean even the little ones are big, full of flavour, with meat that actually tastes like meat. I had the double cheeseburger with swiss cheese (that's right, you get to choose your favourite type of cheese), mustard, tomato sauce and pickles...I am salivating just thinking about it. Only downside of this place are the ridiculously long waits, exacerbated by the phone orders they accept, and the lack of tables. Despite this...well worth it. read more

I worked in Canberra every fortnight and each time I was in town I ate here. It was the highlight of my evenings. Grab a burger to take away - it might take a while, so go for a walk down on the lake while you wait. Great vibes, great food. read more

Best burgers in ACT hands down! Bloody long wait every time though... But worth it!! Try the garlic aioli that comes with the fries, very garlicky (make sure you're not going out afterwards!) but so delicious. You can also call ahead and order take-away if you don't want to wait around, but expect 1+ hour wait on busy nights. read more

Outstanding place to get a delicious burger! All their food I've ordered is top notch. I've eaten their brodburgers, chicken sandwich, salmon sandwich, and calamari. Definitely try this place out. read more

Overall probably the best burgers in Canberra, jam packed with amazing flavours and a hell of a lot of meat. The downsides of this business is the lack of efficiency with burgers often taking more then an hour to be made in a kitchen one of the smallest kitchens I've ever seen for a commercial shop- come on it's Canberra rent isn't that bad. In general though this is one of my favourite places to eat out and would recommend it using the pre order function on their website. read more

Huge, hand-made, delicious burgers. Classic "brodburger", available with a varied of cheeses, is big, sloppy, and great. With blue cheese it's fabulous. Chips are rather ordinary, but the onion rings are very good. Expect a crowd, and a 20-minute wait for your food after ordering, as it's made fresh and not precooked. If you come in off wentworth, brodburger is around back behind the Glassworks building. read more

Awesomin' Blossomin' Burger... Canberra is a quiet little capital city. Ogle the kangaroos grazing at the side of the highway, experience the legion of traffic circles, and you can sum a tourist's excitement in one hour. I'm no tourist, though. I am a man with a golden fork and a proud appetite. Show me the honey. And traveling 15 hours into another dimension of the planet, where native uncaged cockatoos roam free and only I have the foreign accent out of the bunch, I realize I've come all this way to stick my golden fork into a hamburger. A HAMBURGER! But the spirited locals approve of such a burger stand, known as Brodburger, holding a gripe on reasons it's imperative for me to try this up-and-comer. So...tell me...why? Brodburger gives you experience waiting in a long line for 45 minutes. You get to take part in exploration of hidden empty seating. Finally, you can participate in the tasting of an ordinary-looking gourmet burger. But wait. I'm tasting subtle inspiring differences here, inside this layered flame-grilled 1/2 lb. patty, with usual produce and aioli, there's something about the sourdough-esque bun that holds me wondering if it's all in the water. These basic ingredients held together are creating positive salivation vibes and I hold a tiff with my stomach for reasons why I can't have another already. Perhaps if I wait in line again, by the time I reach the register, my stomach and I will have settled our differences and come to a 1/2 lb. decision. My spirited local suggests calling the establishment first to make an order and arrive right on time to get the VIP treatment - little to no waiting. Then while waiting in the line to pay, your counterpart can find VIP seating - leering over a golden couple who finish their last bites. read more
