Overview
Those of you who believe that heaven is a beef patty and munching through a juicy double (cheeseburger) with onion rings is a way of communing with a higher power, hear this proclamation. A new place of worship has been erected by faithful servants in Maribyrnong and behold, it is good.
St. Burgs, named after the patron saint of burgers (probably), has thrown its door wide for saints and sinners alike and they are not messing around. Established by burger zealot Dan Soto, St. Burgs has been set up in an apartment block on Edgewater Boulevard and has nailed the clean, understated decor that says, "We’re just here to make burgers, people."
The menu reflects this simplistic philosophy — it's pretty basic (in a good way) and like all great foodie establishments, makes the choosing part easy. You can get a beef burger (the ‘Durger’), double beef burger (the ‘Double D’), chicken burger (the ‘Western Fried Chicken’) or the mushroom burger (the ‘St. Shroom’). As that cartoon meerkat would say, "Simples." However St. Burgs diverges from the pack by rejecting the hipster burger staple, the brioche bun, and replacing it with something a little less sickly: a milk bun with an egg base (hey, we only said it was a little less sickly). You can also pick up a side of Filipino-style wingettes with slaw or a sinful salted caramel milkshake (*drools until dehydrated*). Amen.
Find St. Burgs at 41-45 Edgewater Boulevard, Maribyrnong. Open Tuesday – Friday 6pm-9pm, Saturday – Sun 12pm – 7pm (or until sold out). Closed Mondays.
