Have not been to the burger chains in America but these are by far the best burgers I have ever had hands down and on several occasions now. Whenever I go here I nearly die at the quality and flavour. They do the patties thin and fresh so the fat is cooked high and crispy in the meat and the cheese melts between the meat perfectly. Usually get the double which is perfect size and or the sloppy joe. The loaded chips are nice too and good to share. Honestly no one understands how good this place is it is the best kept secret in Australia.

Please Laurie Dees, I implore you to franchise your business and bring it down south of the Yarra! We need you in our lives! This rates as one of my most satisfying burger experiences in Melbourne. It’s not gourmet with wagyu or brioche buns, but just simple classic burger goodness. I’m a huge fan of «soft and yielding» burgers with thin patties full of beefy flavour and no veggies. The double cheeseburger totally delivers on this — no sloppy vegetation disrupting the cheesy meat flow. I love the crisp edges of the patty, that made it for me. And the frozen custard sundaes & shakes were so delicious, seriously good stuff. Very sad that Epping is so far away from me!

So, this is one of those little 50s style fast food hamburger joints situated at epping plaza shopping center. You walk in, pick your meal then sit down until your number is called over the loud speaker while sitting at your little table or booth. What I love most about this place is they dont try to make it feel fancy or fuss over you. The staff are very friendly and the food is delicious. American style, sloppy, greasy and filling. Whats not too like about that? They dont do meal deas llike other fast food joints but other fast food joints dont make such a sloppy, fun to eat burger with unlimited free refills from the«do it yourself» postmix. With all the classics such as «chilli cheese fries» to genuine«sloppy joes» served in paper baskets on a cosy little tray, it’s very hard to pass up when shopping with the fam. My 2 year old thinks its fantastic with the mess he makes so that makes it worth the visit also. An easy 5 stars for convenience, fun and grubby hands. Bravo.

@20160130 Just had the double dee and it’s like a good normal burger. good but nothing fantastic… hmm unless my tastebuds have changed. Is there such a thing as a burger snob ?? @2014 Sept made the journey up north specifically for the double Laurie Dee Burger. The Mrs ranks this as the BEST she’s had and she has tried a lot! I drag her with me :) as for me… hmmm it was good but I can’t separate between Chew Burger or Laurie Dees. Guess might have to go back to do more comparison. Lauries patty is great. Juicy not dried with crispy bits on the side. just how a good patty should be. It’s very flavoursome without overpowering salt. The bun was mayb a tad bit small. It fell apart too easily. But it works! The feature was the patty and how the condiments of pickle lettuce sauce and bun complemented everything in one mouthful! damn it am salivating already! The Chilie cheese fries and custard ice cream was good but $$ for what it is.

The best burgers in Melbourne hands down. The Milo and caramel frozen custard features in my dreams. Amazing and drool worthy.

If you’re into your burgers then Laurie’s is a must. The menu is limited but covers all the basics. The burgers are a perfect size though they are messy so stock on the napkins. Fries have a nice seasoning and you have the option of getting the cheese or chilli fries. Their sundaes are a must so be sure to leave room!
