If you are in Melbourne then Simpsons is a must go.
One of the best burgers I ever had. Ordered Heseinburger and Poutine chips and it just hits the spot.Full of fresh ingredients and patty was so fresh and juicy it's just melts in your mouth.Poutine was delicious . Combination of cheese and gravy and their homemade seasoning just take your taste buds to next level. Definitely must a go. Staff was really polite and friendly. They helped me to select the burger patiently with a big smile. Good job guys I will be coming back.

On one hand, the photo of the burger looks average. On the other hand, this is the best burger I have had in Melbourne.
A good burger shouldn't rely on the add on ingredients or sauce, but the patty. This burger is a good representation of simple and delicious.
The flame grill adds so much flavour to the burger, which was crispy on the outside and so juicy when you bite into it.
The bread could be improved, slightly dry, but a minor complaint.
I can come here every week! So good

Simpsons burgers never disappoint. There's usuallly a long queue during lunch, but now you can order via Ritual and that saves a lot of time.

A hole in the wall burger joint along Russell St. Nothing fancy but the price reflects it, but boy are their burgers good! We ordered the standard Hamburger and the Big Boy Burger. Nice juicy traditional burgers with good quality beef patties and a nice smokey flavour. Nothing fancy, just nice burgers at very reasonable prices! I can't see why people would pay $15 - $20 for fancy 'Instagram' burgers that look great but taste ordinary. Most of these monster stack burgers are not practical, you can only eat half the burger at a time anyway?! If you want good traditional burgers, come to Simpsons Burgers. If they improve their fries, it would have been a 5 star.

I always get their spicy chicken burger when Iโ€™m here. One of the best chicken burgers in town. The chicken breast is so tender and juicy and the toppings...yummm...never goes wrong. I usually like the chicken crispy but this is an exception. The burgers are cheap as well. No pics as I smashed it as soon as I got it. They also have the Heisenerger and the Muscle Up for someone looking for an extra feed. Looking forward to their second shop opening in Market Street.

Small unassuming burger joint near Chinatown, went on a whim and ended up returning and having burgers 3 times during our week in Melbourne. Beef patties are low fat but tasty and juicy... therefore burger is not a greasy mess and very yummy! Sauces are great. I had a chicken burger which was also on point. So good and I will recommend to everyone and anyone! Loaded fries also amazing... i had the nacho fries ๐Ÿ˜‹

After all the hype I finally made my way on a glorious Friday lunch to Simpsons burgers. There were a lot of terrible reviews on here about the quality and flavour...BUT I was surprisingly impressed. There are lines out the front for a reason.ย I had the bacocheese burger with added pineapple and a side of onion rings. My first bite took my down memory lane of getting burgers from the local fish n chip shop after work, or going to a cousins house for a family bbq! There are no frills, no excessive (gross) amounts of cheese and bacon. You leave feeling satisfied...and wanting more - not falling asleep at your desk with the meat sweats.

I had the smokin burger with the brioche bun and it was deliciuos. Everything is prepared fresh right in front of you and the superior flavour is evidence of that. I'm eager to return to try the poutine as well.

This place isn't fancy, there's hardly any seating, and there are no gimmicks - but you don't really need any of those things when your burgers are this good. What's more, the quality is consistent and the prices haven't been inflated to reflect how popular Simpsons Burgers has become. My fav is the classic cheeseburger. No fuss, the beef shines as it should. Those who appreciate a simple burger done well at the right price should make time to visit Simpsons!

I regularly eat here and friends I have introduced over the past four years keep going back. They consistently offer tasty traditional burgers as well some special creations., the spicer comes highly recommended. Their chicken burgers use a grilled chicken breast and best of all everything on offer is great value for money.

Simpsons Burgers is a staple burger joint for me. I recommend them to everybody. They manage to keep their prices very low, yet the quality of both food and service is consistently high โ€“ especially compared to many of the overpriced burger joints in the coveted CBD strip.

Your order is always made on the spot with the perfect temperature and fresh, flavoursome ingredients.

Their Cheeseburger Classic is my particular favourite โ€“ its simple flavours let the main star of the show shine: the flame grilled beef patty.

I have visited over half a dozen times, starting from when they opened, and Iโ€™ve not been disappointed yet.

Who would have thought that this simple, no frills, takeaway burger shop can produce such great burgers?!

Just tried the cheeseburger classic and it is everything a good burger should be - pillowy soft damper style buns (a nice change from the greasy brioche that's so popular out there right now), tender and juicy meat patty grilled to perfection, oozy cheese, some salad to ease the burger guilt, and just the right amount of sauce.ย 
I have sampled many-a-burger in my day and I've got to say, this Simpson's Burger is pretty high up there.

Chips were ok. I tried the chips and gravy and the gravy was too salty for my liking.

Prices are very reasonable and the service is just lovely. Great find in the the CBD!

A small burger joint on Russell street. Friendly service anfld food is made quick. Xl chips are small in portion but crispy and well seasoned with chicken salt. Onion rings have a crispy batter and the onion has a sweetness to it. Burgers are delicious, soft bun, tomato relish adds flavour to the burger.

Like it that burgers are quite customizable, you can start off ordering their basic hamburger (6.90) and simply pay to add-on additional ingredients. Added egg and onions and total came up to $8.90. Size is rather big so it's pretty value for money! Seatings are limited thou, opted for takeaway. Highly recommended for burgers at a pocket friendly price!

This tiny burger spot has minimal seating but flips out great value burgers. I'd get their Big Boy burger as I found their Cheeseburger Classic one dimensional. Their chips are well seasoned and addictive, will be back back to try their loaded chips one day!

Small place in a good location but easily overlooked unless you're a burger foodie who knows what's up. The burgers are really bang for you buck. CHEAP and generous portion. XL chips were $4.90 (say what). I ordered the garden dream (veggie) burger that consisted of a veggie patty, beetroot, lettuce, avocado, cheese and a relish sauce and some other pickled mustard mayonnaise sauce. Patty was decent, but lacking in seasoning, the sauces personally for me were not great, overly sweet when combined with beetroot which I found overpowered the burger. The cheese was bland and virtually flavourless, just there to make an appearance. Chips were seasoned well. Overall worth the money (the reason for the high score).

I've tried A LOT of burger places in Melbourne and Simpson's is easily in my top 3. Lack of seating/general space is the only downside to eating here but if your happy with take away this place is solid. Bacocheese or Spicy Chicken would be my recommendations. Gets quite busy at peak times like most places in CBD so go after 1PM or be prepared to wait a little bit.

I had a Big Boy Burger with chips and gravy, the burger was delicious and very filling, the chips were nice, not too salty or greasy, however, the gravy was just your average gravy and the American mustard in the hamburger was not quite to my taste. Although small, the store is nice and neat, with seating inside and out. Overall a great place for some decent wholesome food at a good price.

One of the best burgers joint I ever came across. Remind me of my school days when you can just get a healthy beef n chicken burger. Spicer is my favourite burger here.Simpson's stands out from the contemporary burger joints like as Grilled or Huxtaburger or 8bit. It's fresh ingredients gives you in your mouth a fine touch of quality taste with no bullshit
. I am coming to Simpson's from a long time and these guys behind the counter never disappointed me. They have very good customer service along with the health chicken beef n veggies burgers. My youngest kid is a big fan of their chicken n chips

Great, reasonably priced burgers. Patties (beef, chicken, veg) are all house made and are never frozen. They make their own chicken salt and everything is fried in vegetable oil (no trans-fatty nasties). Simple, solid weekday lunch.

Guys behind the bench were real nice and asked what kind of burger I was after, after letting them know I was missing my glasses that day. Gave me a solid recommendation and had it freshly made real quick.
It was the Bacocheese with BBQ sauce, and it was very good. All the ingredients tasted fresh, every single one. Chips were cooked to perfection and salted just the right amount.
Price is excellent too!

After seeing some positive reviews online, we decided to visit Simpsons Chips and Burgers. Itโ€™s a small venue and just looks like your standard take-away shop from the outside, but we were blown away with their amazing tasting burgers!ย 

We both ordered the โ€˜Big Boyโ€™ burger with an added beef patty, and some chicken strips. The burgers are great value, with the โ€˜Big Boyโ€™ only costing $9.90 for so many ingredients. We thought $4.00 was a little steep for an added patty, but understandable as the burgers were already so cheap. There are a few tables inside so after we ordered, we took a seat and waited.

The staff there were really friendly and helpful, which was a huge positive. Shortly after sitting down, our chicken strips came. They were really hot and fresh. Then, our burgers came out next. They both looked amazing! The bun was nice and soft, which made the burger easier to eat. The beef patties were so tasty, and the slight bit of char grill just added even more flavour. The cheese was melted perfectly over the patties. One of the stand outs was the bacon. We couldnโ€™t get enough of it! The egg was a nice addition, as well as the tomato and lettuce. There was a really generous amount of sauce on the burgers too.

Overall, we were extremely impressed with the quality of food and service from Simpsons Chips and Burgers. We look forward to going back in the near future!

This is a very small place. Sweet little spot to grab a burger. First thing I noticed is the staff were really friendly not in an annoyingly fake way. So that was a nice start.ย 

I ordered the Double Cheese burger with onions and it took about 10 mins or so to come out. The burger is really good. It has a very strong beef flavor to it. The other ingredients added to the burger they did not take away anything from the patty which is ideal in a burger.

All the ingredients were nice and fresh. This is another burger joint with nice buns. So that was also good.

if your in the city looking for a quick burger to smash check this joint out

After scouring zomato for burger places, the was one that my colleagues and I had not tried yet and with its high rating we decided it was time.

When we arrived at the front, we were very surprised to a small takeaway style shop front with two tables inside and two outside as we were expecting a bigger venue. From first glance, I could see why people could just walk right past this place because even though it has yellow signage, it looks a cheap takeaway place with a local fish and chip shop vibe.

We places our order and were given numbers on a cardboard that was to represent our orders as we were dinning in which we all found hilarious, it didn't really bother us but it was a bit odd and very funny.
We had 5 people so they allowed to take a chai outside to add to one of the tables which was nice of them.

When the burgers came out we were relieved as they looked amazing, perfectly stacked, layered and presented well.
We ordered the Tango Simpson, the hamburger, the cheese burger classic, the bacocheese and the spicy chicken along with Simpson chips and chicken chips!

The burgers were really good, mainly because of the large beef patty which was cooked perfectly. the Tango Simpson had a similar taste to a HJ's flame grilled whopper due to the sauce combo which was great. The spicy chicken was super spicy as the name suggests and is not recommended for someone who can't handle extra hot! The other burgers were all pretty good as beef and buns were both nice. The chips were ok, nothing special and the chicken chips was a very small serving size and not something we would get again.

All in all, they make good quality burgers and understand why they have the rating they do, however attention to detail such as the card sore numbers or the shops vibe could really help this place out!

We've walked pass this burger place on daily basis but never had the guts to try it as it doesn't look convincing from the outside ๐Ÿ˜ With a rating of 4 on Zomato, this place deserves a place on our MUST TRY collection. We went on Wednesday around 6.30pm. We ordered Big Boy burger & Gravy chips for $15.90, generous portion enough to feed 2 hungry tummies! Patty was chunky and beefy. Chips were yummy too although we don't mind to have less gravy next time ๐Ÿ˜† but we definitely enjoyed the experience!

Unpretentious burgers that are tasty, filling and cheap. Yes, the interior is a little small and not that cozy of an ambiance, but hey I'd much rather save money on food here, and then head off to a nice watering hole later. So, no complains. ย If you like Grill'd burgers, give these a go!

It's ย also a great place for a lunch takeaway.

I'm probably not qualified to review this place because I only had a cheeseburger. But I loved it. A generously sized, well priced, traditional hamburger bun with correctly seasoned, smoky thick pattie, melted cheese, tomato, lettuce, onoin and nice tangy mayo/tomato sauce combo all for less than $8. The burger held its shape well as I wandered down Russell Street. I discarded the box provided (I don't remember getting a serviette). Service was friendly. The fellow who served me walked up to me from behind the counter and handed me my burger with a smile...simple act but appreciated. I'll be back again for sure. Not much seating so only recommended for a single or couple on the run.

That's How Burgers suppose to taste these guys don't rely on other factors such as brioche or sweet buns to bring out the flavors in their burgers this is nicely done by their flavorsome patty fresh healthy non greasy and non pretentious and value for money burgers and Chips are same they cook them fresh with their home made chicken salt.
My favorites Spicer and Tango Simpsons and in Chips Their Poutine with 2 cheese and home made thick country style gravy highly recommended !!

Good big burgers that were fresh and generously filled with toppings for a reasonable price! This little burger joint holds much surprise for the popularity and quality of its burgers. However, the shop is rather small and the tables are very limited so do be prepared to have a takeaway instead. I got the Cheeseburger Classic along with chips and also the poutine with my friends. The burger was nice and flavourful but it wasn't the best burger I have had taking the flavour in consideration. The burger wasn't greasy at all and the beef patty was well cooked. ย The chips too were crisp and well seasoned, however, I didn't really like the seasoning salt flavour and found them a tad bit undercooked as I like my chips to be on the softer side. The poutine wasn't the good in my opinion. It was just as the description described: chips topped generously with gravy and cheese but the gravy itself wasn't the best and I couldn't really taste the cheese both in the Poutine and in the burger even though it was clearly there. Overall a pleasant experience and a good value for a filling and tasty meal but if you're looking for quality rather than value, I suggest trying somewhere else!

Pro's: Really quick, burgers aren't greasy and the price is quite reasonable
Cons: The bun wasn't toasted :(ย 

This little gem smack bang in the middle of Melbourne's CBD produces pretty amazing burgers. The patty is huge, the flavours are great and the chips were really well seasoned. If you want to sit down and eat, forget it, unless you are one of the lucky few who scores one of the limited seats, so be prepared to go for a walk to a nearby food court or park to enjoy your burger :)

Overall, great place, I'll definitely go back again for lunch sometime!

Great burger (Cheeseburger classic) for just $7.90 - I also got a side of onion rings, which I added a few of to my burger to add extra crunch. When I was first handed the sauce I thought for sure I could have done with twice as much, but I ended up having some leftover once finishing the onion rings

The place is small, but right near Treasury Gardens which is great to eat lunch at on a sunny Autumn day

Was excited to finally come and try this little burger joint near the corner of Bourke and Russell and whilst I liked the burger, if I'm comparing this to NYB, then it's not as good value (when getting a combo).

I opted for the Big Boy (aka the lot) and it was pretty hard to eat as it kept falling apart. Where I could take a bite, it was very satisfying with the combination of egg, cheese, bacon and patty. Oh and the lettuce of course. The mustard mayo was a nice addition too.

However, $16 for the combo is a bit much when NYB can be had for $12.5... Hence why the rating difference.

Many of my followers have been wondering where I've been over the last few years. I will begin by addressing some of the rumours floating aboutย - no, I was not 'offed' byย some disgruntled burger proprietor. Truth is, I haven't been eating burgers too regularly ever since I found my love for Stereosonic. This chiseled physique doesnโ€™t just happen.
Simpsons Chips & Burgers is aย tiny place that isย easy to miss โ€“ if you happen to not notice the large colourful overhanging sign displaying "Simpons Burgers 20 metres ahead", that is. On this occasion I had the Chicken &ย Avocado (โ€˜C&Aโ€™) burger on its own. Before you start thinking things like "why would one order a chicken burger?" or "why would one eat a burger without the chips?", I will premise my review with the following:
(a) Refer to abovementioned comment re Stereosonic
(b) I was wearing tight white pants on the day (rookie error + refer to abovementioned comment re Stereosonic).

To the C&A burger. Now, we all know that when rating a non-beef burger such as a chicken burger,
pork burger, or Lord forbid - a veggie burger, we need to bear in mind the GBWAS (which for the uninitiated, stands for "Global Burger Weighted Average Scale"). Without getting too technical, the GBWAS is required because a beef burger will be inherently better than a non-beef burger.ย They cannot be compared like-for-like. That would be akin to making an outlandish statement like "thatย celery stickย was better than that choc brownie". It just doesn't work. So before people start jumping up and down saying "how can a chicken burger at Simpsons possibly score a 4/5
when the beef burgers are being scored 4.5/5?", please bear in mind that my score of 4/5 is one that has already been scaled according the GBWAS.

While awaiting on my C&A burger I noticed that the entrance of this place was crowded with folk
from all walks of life - office staff, taxi drivers, tradies from the nearby construction site, and a guy with really really long hair. So when writing this review I asked myself whether my rating has been influenced by 'perceived
popularity'. Well I can confidently say that this has not been the case, based on previous experiences dining here alone on a late Friday evening after a date gone wrong. I also now realise that those tradies were not actually waiting around for burgers but wereย simply there toย check out the fine office-type ladies walking past in their tight skirts. Winning.
When I was enjoying my burger, my pesky colleagues insisted on continuously interrupting my meal with
seemingly menial comments and questions such as - "why don't they open more stores?". I mostly ignored their unsolicited comments and I can only hope for their sake that this was their attempt at filling the awkward silence within
the lunch room. Needless to say, my next visit to Simpsons burger will be alone .

I will however, leave them with the following quote from Albert Einstein: "Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted".

This was by far the best burger I've tasted in Melbourne! I would recommend anyone who is in the city to try the burgers here! The price of the burgers are fair and you get a lot for your money. The burger patty tastes really juicy and you can tell that a lot of fresh ingredients were used in the process. If you're on the burger hunt in Melbourne make sure you get yourself here!

On a quite Monday afternoon, I went out to get a quick feed before class. I stumbled across Simpson's. I only order the big boy but it did NOT disappoint. The meat with cheese melted on top WITH mustard and tomato fused all together...... It was amazing.

Simple, tasty, and well cooked burger! Add $5.5 and you'll get chips and on can drink. The chips is excellent. Its not too hard to find an old school burger in the city after all.

Simple, hearty burgers. The burgers and chips served here at Simpsons were simple yet truly delicious! Don't be expecting gourmet, truffle-oil/wagyu level fare here, but this place hits the spot for comfort food. The burger patty had a generous amount of onion mixed among the beef which I liked. I'm not usually a fan of plain white bread but the buns used at Simpsons were so soft and fluffy. For only $7.90, I highly recommend the cheeseburger especially after a few drinks. Definitely don't look past this small, unassuming place.

Simple, not pretentious burgers. Juicy and very very tasty! We had the spicer, chicken avocado and simpson's burger. All great! Beef patties definitely home made not some frozen stuff. Chicken juicy and flavoursome. All together, if you want a decent, tasty burger for a good price - $7-$10 make sure you give it a try!!!

Id give it more than 4 stars if I could, without the full 5. The two guys working here tonight weโ€™re friendly and polite, and served my food quickly. The food was hot, really yummy, and well portioned. The 4 stars is because I asked explicitly for no tomato, as Iโ€™m allergic, and despite him repeating it back to me, and me being the only customer, I took a bite and had this guy in my mouth. No problem, good food, but couldโ€™ve been a little better!

Truly a great burger in the heart of the city. The Aussie burger is great with fresh ingredients. Beet roots on a burger? Yes please! Friendly service and a fair price.

Have you heard about this burger joint?! My bf wanted to try this place so we ordered it from ubereats. I didnโ€™t know that we actually were so close to the place! ๐Ÿ˜‚ We ordered: ๐Ÿ” Big Boy - Beef patty with egg, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, mayo, mustard and tomato sauce ๐Ÿ” Muscle Up - Double everything from Big Boy and added pickles ๐ŸŸ Simpsons Chips and Poutine Just by looking at them when I opened the boxes, I was already drooling! The burgers were quite heavy so we know its packinโ€™ juicy patties ๐Ÿคค After the first bite, I was in love!!! ๐Ÿฅฐ The burgers tasted like they were homecooked made with so much love and attention and we could also taste the fresh ingredients theyโ€™re using. The buns had great thickness to hold the ingredients together and nicely toasted. The sauces on both burgers were amazing, they really complemented each ingredients inside the burger. The chips themselves were perfectly seasoned with the right amount of salt. The poutine gravy was the best! Iโ€™d recommend everyone to get the poutine instead of the regular, just to taste that elevated flavors. Overall, we can see ourselves ordering here again (and probably often) in the future, especially when the burger craving kicks in!

Easily the best burgers Iโ€™ve had in Melbourne, good servings, fresh ingredients, and tasty! Whatโ€™s not to love? Also, the only burger place Iโ€™ve been to in ages that uses REAL CHEESE! no โ€œAmericanโ€ (craft singles) cheese here. So good!

Lovely food, healthy burgers, it's just so fresh it's cooked in front of your eyes. Spicy chicken burger made my day. My husband had their Heisenburger and loaded fries with added bacon bits to it was so tasty we finished everything on the plate. Staff is friendly with smile on the face even though they were really busy. It's a small place which delivers big. So it's a must try. Will definitely be recommending to my friend's and family
