Overview
After a super popular pop-up at the Annandale Hotel — in which lines snaked around the corner even at brunch — Burgers by Josh has announced its next move: a kitchen takeover at The Hotel William. The residency will kick off on Wednesday, June 8 at the recently refurbished William Street pub — and although it's initially locked in for two months, the man behind it all, Josh Arthurs, is scoping out the venue as a potential long-term home for his delicious burgs. Could this be an end to the shifting sands of short term burger availability? We hope so.
The menu will feature the burger that started the Burgers by Josh craze, the New Yorker, as well as all the deliciousness from the Annandale pop-up. Arthurs has also teased at a collaboration with a secret Sydney kebab shop to recreate the Halal Snack Pack burger. The monstrosity — which is essentially a kebab plate with meat, chips, wagyu, cheese and tabbouleh in a bun — was created for the final night of his Annandale Hotel pop-up, and it looks set to come back with a vengeance.
Burgers by Josh will be running the Hotel William kitchen for lunch and dinner Wednesday through Sunday from Wednesday, June 8. If you dig it, let the BBJ team know — it might convince them to set up shop permanently.
The Hotel William is located at 47-19 William Street, Darlinghurst. For more info on the pop-up, visit the Burgers by Josh Facebook page.
