If you’re after a decent burger then you have no reason to look past The Royale Brothers in Brighton. A fast and efficient service and great consistency in their burgers this is always a top spot I always consider!

Soft buns, juicy meat, flavoursome sauces and cheese pull goals, what more could you want?

Loved the burgers. The hype was justified in the taste of the burger. We mostly all had the Royale with cheese. Personally I felt that the onions were over bearing but the quality of the ingredients was evident in the taste. The one thing that brought the place down is the wings which we all agreed were below average.

Unbelievable flavours. One of the best in Melbourne. Definitely a little costly but for the occasional meal, happy to pay. It was also huge as a double. Didn’t need fries

One the best veggie burgers I have had here. Had Hippie Royale. They have a pinto bean patty and that makes the difference! Burgers size is just filling. Felt that they could have added more veggies to it.
Had that nice town experience in the evening sitting ousting Royale brothers.

I only ever have the Pony Boy, and frankly, it is the burger upon which every burger has since been measured. Why I even bother going anywhere else is my bad. And those crunchy chips! Could there be anything more satisfying than a juicy burger with a side of the most delicious chips, enjoyed outside on a sunny day whilst watching the Brighton populace go about their posh business? I think not.

Royale Bros is a bustling little takeaway joint that proves super popular with the locals on a Friday night.
Each and every ingredient and component used in their burgers and ice cream are simply top quality, and the careful execution is evident in every bite. This in turn, made for a thoroughly delicious cheatmeal from start to finish, and is definitely one that ranks amongst the best in Melbourne.

Favourite Burger Place in Melbourne.  I love the Royale with Cheese, and it has caused me to become a regular here. I also love lickings ice creamery directly next to it, and often accompany the burger with one of their delicious milkshakes.

Good quality food. Got the Bacon Royale and chips and it was brilliant. The bacon royale had a good blend of the sauce, salad, burger patty and bacon. Chips were great but you cant really stuff up chips. Food came out very quickly.

Food: 🌟🌟🌟🌟
We ordered the Crispy Fish burger, Bacon Royale burger, Cookies and Cream thickshake and chips to start. This was the best fish burger we've had to date. The fish was crispy on the outside and very tender and juicy on the inside. It was definitely pleasant surprise. The meat burger was also enjoyable and the thickshake was refreshing. We liked the flavours in the thickshake so much we went back for a second (mint this time which was also nice) and also picked up a scoop of white peach icecream to go.

Service: 🌟🌟🌟🌟
We did not have to wait long for the meal and the staff were friendly and polite.

Price: 🌟🌟🌟🌟
Reasonably priced for the quality of the meals. This burger joint is one of our faves and we are definitely happy to pay and return for more.

Pretty good local burger joint! Buns are nice and soft and the meat is nice and juicy. Love the sesame bun and they put plenty of sauce which is good. Chips are standard but also nice and crunchy.
The only down side is that there is very limited seating so it is always a grab and go place.
It is good enough that it still keeps me going back!

My all time favourite burger joint. My fam and I will make the trip to Brighton just to visit this place. The burgers are always perfect! Juicy without being oily or overly saucy. The chips are amazing too. You can tell the food is made with top quality ingredients- you aren’t left feeling gross & sick afterwards. Can’t say enough great things about Royale Brothers- highly recommend popping in for a meal.

Delicious burgers - only problem is there is limited seating. Love that there are slushies to go with the bugers esp on warm nights. The burgers may be slightly pricier than others but that is because they use wagyu beef.

Good burgers, apparently among melbournes best. Quick efficient service, using buzzers to notify when food is ready. Outdoor seating area. Burgers start at $12.50. Refresher towel in the take out bag was a nice touch- no sticky fingers after eating here! Lickings next door is good for ice cream too.

It's more of a takeaway burger joint. The seating is out in open. There is some shelter but all of it is without any outdoor heater. That's makes it very cold to sit and eat there, especially in the evenings.
I got myself a hippy burger(veg) and some chips.
Burger was great. Decent size and taste. Didn't smell of meat.
For $13.50 though,, idk,, it's a stretch to pay that much, without the chips, and eat in freezing cold. It wasn't fun at all. I don't mind grilld's burger and sit there a lot more comfortably.
Chips were chips, nothing wrong with them, didn't knock the socks off. Spicy tomato sauce was more of a thick relish, not bad though.

When The Dear Luncher eats burgers, he eats them with guts and determination. The Royale Brothers have built up quite a reputation for themselves and are conveniently only just down the road from Your Dear Luncher's location. Excellent proponent of the burger craft, well worth a visit. Seating options limited which is somewhat of a drawback.

Initially when first opened the burgers were great and made to perfection. But as time went on the burgers were made very lazily with burger falling apart when opening. Apart from those factors the burgers are extremely nice and tasty. Don't let the price sway your purchase the portion is equal to the price. Overall a good burger.

Always delicious food from here all round. Big burgers but packaged accordingly so it doesn't get messy. We've tried probably just about all of the menu excluding the double royale and absolutely loved every experience.
We'd come here with friends as it's always quick, reliable and easy. 

Prices are a bit steep, but contextually to the area they are relevant, and seating is minimal nearby so you have to be on the prowl if you want to sit nearby.

Pretty happy with the burgers here. Had the royale with cheese and it came with a really good milk bun that wasn't sweet. The meat inside was cooked well and had good flavouring. They are massive burgers and we'd been recommended the royale double. Very glad I went with the single as I definitely would not have been able to finish a bigger burger. The chips were really delicious and I loved the complimentary sauce. I recommend the shakes as well

Had the Royale with cheese, chips with aoli.
I was very happy with this! I think it met the benchmark for your basic beef pati with cheese burger bun, perhaps even exceeded slightly:)
The chips were cooked to perfection, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
Shame there's no inside dining options to cater for Melbourne's variable weather conditions but overall I liked the experience.

Been wanting to come here for a long time. Tried once on a very rainy day & we couldn't find the place (though we were actually right there) so we ended up eating somewhere else. They are really not very conspicuous I have to say. We are still confused whether there is only outdoor sitting or can we sit indoors at the Pantry next door which also serves The Royale Brothers burgers but limited options.

The milk buns were super soft. Burger selection was interesting & yum! Fries were crunchy. We also tried their creme brûlée donut, $5.50 for a donut is very pricey but worth a try. [Coffee/drinks were from next door.]

Note: They charge 10% more on public holidays!

Been eating at Royale Brothers since they opened. Some of the best burgers in all of Melbourne. I've had the Royale, Royale with bacon, Spicy Royale, chicken, and Hippy Royale, and they've all been excellent. My go to is the plain Royale, just a classic burger with a great combo of everything. The buns really make these burgers. Only thing I'll say is it would be great if they maybe added a 2nd side, maybe an onion rings or different types or fries.

One of the best burgers in Melbourne. Great oily bun, a thin but very tasty grass feed party, excellent cheese melt and cover and a nice combo of sauces. Chips are great, crispy outside and creamy inside, the aoli dipping sauce is yum. The chips are fairly commercial and in my opinion you can get beer at Mammys Boys or Tuck Shop to name a few. Basic burger comes in a decent value at $13.50. As mentioned the only seething is outdoors so not so great for winter. Service is very fast even when they super busy which is great to see. The addition of Lickings ice cream really gives this place an edge, it is amazing and awesome to get a burger and desert at the same place. If you haven't been to Royal Brothers then you need fix that.

This is the place I head to when I'm really craving a decent burger. The Royale cheese is my go to and always delivers the goods. The chips are average. Service is good and quick enough. They do add a surcharge on public holidays which is a bit much. Only annoying thing is that there is very limited outdoor seating, so you're lucky to get a seat in summer and in winter it is very much a takeaway joint!

We knew this place had rave reviews, so finally after dinner one night we headed down for a little dessert. At 8.30pm on a cold saturday night, there was a healthy crowd around Royale Bothers enjoying some serious burgers, but we were there for the ice cream bar. It looked the goods and the two guys inside were dressed for the occasion. Aprons and hats all in black and white were pretty smooth! We sussed out the flavours on offer and settled on the Salted Caramel and the Pistachio in a waffle cone. I handled over a $50 and was given $23 change... I kept my hand out until the young guy realised what was going on. Another $20 came my way. Then the other guy went about serving our ice cream. He picked up a cup and proceeded to scoop the salted caramel and pistachio into it... We just watched and then told him we ordered a waffle cone. So he started from scratch and got what we ordered. While these two guys didn't seem too switched on, it was quickly forgotten as the ice cream was amazing! The texture, taste and overall smoothness of the stuff was top notch! I will be back, hopefully the staff are a little better next time.

Been back and the burgers are rock solid. Love em to bits! Bacon Royale 👌🏼

Came here on a Saturday night with a few friends and would highly recommend.

We ordered a selection of burgers and chips, all of which were great. Ordering is easy, you order and pay before you eat, get a buzzer which sounds when your food is ready and go get it. I had the Royale With Cheese, which is apparently voted as the best burger in Australia 2016 according to Food Service News. The Royale With Cheese does not let down and is delicious, with a juicy well seasoned beef patty and a selection of complementing flavours from the pickles, mustard etc. The chips with gravy is another winner, though the chips have a blandish and oily flavour, the gravy is excellent and really makes it into a winner.
We also ordered some deserts from the ice cream shop too such as the ice cream and shakes. The ice cream was great but the cookies and cream shake we had could have been a bit more special.

The only cons would be that the seating areas are all located outside with no visible amenities/toilets. The outside seating area would be great in summer but not so much in the middle of winter(as was our case) or a rainy day.

Overall a great place with great food, would recommend.

Had The Pork Jerk which was absolutely stunning! The pork was tender, aromatic and flavoursome, while the slaw was appetising and delish! It was undoubtedly one of the best burgers in Melbourne! We also had Choco Mint Thick Shake and Ice Cream (Coconut Choco Chip & Strawberry) from Lickings Fine Ice Cream. The Choco Mint Thick Shake was slightly too sweet even though the mint flavour was on point. As for the ice cream, the coconut was fragrant and tasted as though I was having an actual coconut! It was hands down one of the best coconut ice cream I have had! The chocolate chips complemented the coconut ice cream well, while the strawberry ice cream was decent.

I've been here before. Royale Brothers is located in the heart of Brighton's Church Street.
I Ordered - Royale With Cheese
Price - $13
Bun - great to begin. Doesn't hold up due to the mayo and other sauces.
Salad - not a lot of salad.
Meat - nice. Good size. Very reasonable quality.
Time - it took 4 minutes (from order to receiving burger)
Sauce - delicious! too much sauce though - it really affected the bun towards the end of the burger. My advice would be to order without Mayo.

Great Vegie burger! Nice crispy coating and lots of fillings squished in a soft bun. The chips are good but are nothing too special.
Cookies & cream shake is a must have!

Stopped for lunch as was driving by. Ordered double royale deluxe $22. A big double patty, double cheese, double bacon, tomati and lettuce in soft milk bun. Very filling burger but just seemed to lack some intensity in flavour. have eaten here at least 6 times last 12 months and unfortunately have noticed a slide in all aspects as there seems to be an air of complcency creeping in. What once was a punchy burger has slid back as new offerings have upped the ante in the burger stakes. Still has enough brownie points in reserve to be respected but care needs to be raised.

It's a darn good burger...

Finally got around to giving this one a go.. maybe my expectations were set high... have been looking fwd to Royales for awhile.

Royales is behind the Pantry and works well for the clientele that it attracts! Onto the burger... without taking it apart my first bite was as if it was the most beautiful thing in the world!! I devoured it. it was only until I was half way through that I remembered to take note of what was inside... nothing pretentious.. just a whole hearty "proper" burger with lettuce .. I noticed my grip as well.. substantial yet not fist size like fatbob's!

"Milk" bun was nice. Not too heavy and complemented the fillings well. the patty although not as good as Laurie Dee's or Chew's, was significant and meaty enough for a thumbs up. like other reputable burgers the patty has granular bits of meat with some burnt bits.

All in all ... awesome. WIR? most definitely! Is it the best?? hmm this I will leave to ur own judgement. We all have our favourites ...

This little burger joint in Brighton is a gem of a find. Serving up interesting twists on new-school burgers, each and every one is delicious. Now I'm a sworn carnivore and their standard Royale is good for me, but after having tasted the vegetarian burger (reluctantly under gf pressure), it surprisingly blew my mind - by far the best I've had!

Had the Bacon Royale Burger which is very good. It is very cheesy and tasty. The burger patty has a nice char which makes it crispy on the outside. However, the patty is thin so it's cooked well done and is a bit dry. The chips are cooked to order so they are very crispy and delicious.
