About Goldieboy Burgers

Tucked beside North Brighton station, Goldieboy serves textbook smash burgers with deeply crisped lacy edges and juicy centers on pillowy potato buns. Commuters and burger pilgrims drop in for the signature double—two smashed chuck-and-brisket patties layered with melted American cheese, grilled onions, crunchy pickles, and chipotle mayo that cuts through the rich beef without heavy grease. Outside, the open-air shed setup buzzes with cold schooners and thick-cut fries tossed in chicken salt.

  • Chuck & Brisket Smash Patties: Thin-pressed chuck and brisket blend patties seared for crisp, caramelized edges and juicy centers on potato buns.

Why Choose Goldieboy Burgers

Why smash burger enthusiasts and North Brighton commuters choose Goldieboy

  • Crispy-Laced Patties with Juicy Centers

    Goldieboy presses chuck and brisket patties ultra-thin on the flat top, yielding crunchy lace edges while preserving tenderness through the center on a buttery potato bun.

    The patties had a great crispy edge, and despite being thin, they stayed noticeably juicy through the centre with that rich beef flavour you want from a proper smash burger.

  • Balanced Sauces that Accentuate the Beef

    House sauces—including chipotle mayo, mustard, and tomato sauce—are layered in deliberate proportions so beef and melted cheese lead every mouthful.

    the sauces complimented the burger without overpowering the flavour of the patties, and the occasional sweet pickles paired well with the richness of the burger

    Discerning burger hunters and friend groups across Melbourne make dedicated stops here to benchmark against top global and local rankings.

    I go out every month with a group of mates and we hunt for the best burgers in Melbourne. We enjoy some fun banter, sides and soft drinks/ beer and then we give very serious consideration to rating our burgers out of 10.
