About Good Company: Burgers, Brew and BBQ

Good Company delivers authentic low-and-slow wood-smoked American barbecue and loaded griddled burgers in an easygoing Croydon diner setting. Pit-smoked beef brisket pulls apart tenderly, while the signature dinosaur beef ribs showcase a sweet, peppered outer bark alongside classic baked potatoes and tart house vinaigrette. For burger purists, builds like the Alabama arrive tall on soft buns or can be ordered 'nude' with crisp dressed salad. Coeliac diners get an unusually broad spread of safe comfort options—from crispy dedicated gluten-free fried chicken to stretchy battered mozzarella sticks. Cold craft beers and local ciders on tap balance out the hearty platters. Out back, a sheltered marquee with heaters and warm blankets keeps evening catchups relaxed even during chilly Melbourne snaps.

  • Wood-Smoked Barbecue: Smoked low and slow on-site, producing fork-tender beef brisket and hefty beef ribs finished with a dark, spiced crust.
  • Coeliac-Safe Comfort Food: Extensive gluten-free accommodations with dedicated fryer care, featuring gluten-free fried chicken, buns, and fried cheese sticks.
  • Custom Nude Burgers: Every burger build can be ordered 'nude', swapping out the bun for a dressed salad without skimping on fillings.

  • Generous Feasts for Family Gatherings

    Generous sharing platters, craft beers on tap, and casual group booking setups make celebrations effortless.

    Burgers were an excellent price for how big they were. We sampled the cider and beer on tap - also very good. Hopefully this is the new place to have lunch out for the whole family.

  • Nude Kitchen Sink burger

    I ordered a Nude Kitchen Sink burger - basically a burger with the lot, and salad instead of the bun. It was really good, and great to have the option to delete the bun.
