About Burger Days

Frankston gets a proper vintage American diner fix with fresh-smashed beef patties, golden fries, and rich shakes served up in baskets. Patrons drop by Cranbourne Road for juicy smash burgers tucked into soft buns—crusty around the edges without falling apart—and fried chicken battered right before your eyes. Beyond the beef, the griddle turns out hot dogs, tacos, and stack pancakes under the glow of 1950s memorabilia and jukebox tunes. Generous portions anchor the family tables, complete with crispy onion rings and thick Biscoff or chocolate shakes.

  • Fresh-Smashed & Made to Order: Beef patties seared thin with crisp edges, alongside chicken battered and fried to order on the line.
  • Retro Diner Atmosphere: Step into the 1950s with jukebox tunes, red baskets, and warm table check-ins from the owners.
  • Beyond the Burger: A spread built for cravings, covering hot dogs, tacos, fluffy pancake stacks, and thick milkshakes.

  • Fresh, Perfectly Smashed Handcrafted Burgers

    Beef patties are cooked juicy and seasoned with balanced sauces, paired with fresh ingredients that hold together in soft, sweet buns.

    buns are soft and sweet meat and ingredients are fresh and sauces are amazing the best burgers I’ve had.
