Book NowAbout Andrew's Hamburgers
Step off the Bridport Street tram and follow the aroma of searing beef straight to Andrew’s Hamburgers—Albert Park’s no-nonsense antidote to overcomplicated food trends. Operating since 1939, this counter bypasses modern gimmickry, leaning into thick beef patties sizzled on the griddle with sliced onions worked directly into the meat. Regulars arrive hungry for the classic burger with the lot—towering with bacon, egg, and fresh fixings—though purists stick to the American beef on a soft milk bun. Inside, framed newspaper clippings and touring celebrity photos paper the narrow walls. Expect a brief wait on the pavement and a steaming brown paper bag of chips.
- The Legendary Lot: A towering build featuring a thick beef patty griddled with onions, stacked high with bacon, egg, and traditional fixings.
- Decades of Griddle Heritage: Framed newspaper clippings and snapshots of visiting musicians document more than eight decades on Bridport Street.
- Fast Neighborhood Service: The compact storefront operates with swift, welcoming counter service that keeps queues moving quickly during peak hours.

Before you head over
Practical dining tips for navigating Bridport Street's nostalgic burger counter—reserve your table or plan your visit ahead.
Collect Fresh at the Counter
Skip courier apps and order directly at the counter; stacked fresh ingredients and steam cause the buns to turn soggy during multi-stop delivery trips. Pick up your order and eat immediately while hot.
Skip the Extra Patty
Unlike thin American smash patties, standard beef portions here are thick 160g patties. Loaded with the lot and traditional trimmings, a single patty reliably satisfies even serious appetites without an add-on.
Catch the Tram and Expect Outdoor Seating
Interior dining space is extremely tight and seating is restricted to outdoor tables. Hop on the tram that drops off right outside the shop, and be prepared to grab a sidewalk perch or takeaway bag.
