Finally a place that knows how to cook an American burger!
As a burger lover and one who grew up on burgers (from California), I gotta say that the “Bronx” burger is the best classic bacon cheeseburger that I have had since living in Sydney. Anyone who knows me, I’m ALWAYS on a lookout for great America food.
Recently we had our 2nd child at the Mater Hospital and due to a horrible experience with UberEats and BBJ North Sydney, I needed a redemption burger. Thanks to my cousin, I walked 30 mins to and from this this joint in the heat and would do it 100 times again.
To start off, the top bun was nice and soft while the bottom bun was soft and DRY. No one likes a soggy. I’ll tell you their secret later.
The burger itself was juicy, flavorful and cooked to perfection. For all of the other burger joints out there, a burger should be cooked to medium or medium-rare unless Therese requested.
Crispy AF bacon. If you’re from the states, bacon is bacon and there’s no arguing it. Here in Australia bacon has two parts. 1) Streaky bits and 2) the mid cut. For all of my fellow Americans, always order the STREAKY bacon and it they tell you it’s not streaky then don’t add it unless you want a of Canadian Bacon on your burger.
Cheese! Two pieces of it too! Most Australians call American cheese that fake yellowish orange cheese. But to us Americans it’s the cheese that makes any burger great!
Here’s how Five Points Burgers constructed the best burger! (Keep in kind that I don’t work for them not have I ever worked for the nor did they pay me to post this) This is not in any order but this is how I would have recreated the burger. On the top bun, they slathered on the aioli, tomato sauce and onion jam. On the bottom bun they lay a slice of cheese directly on the bun, (this is the trick to keep the bun from sliding when you bite into it and keeping it from becoming soggy especially when I had to walk 15 mins back to the hospital) the pickles, burger with the melted cheese on top, crispy AF bacon, iceberg lettuce and then the top of the bun goes on it!
Of course a great burger deserves some awesome fries and a milkshake to was it down! The beer battered fries were great. I ordered mine well done since I know they’d possibly get soggy walking back but the were delicious and crispy!
There you have it. If you’re in the North Sydney area, this is definitely the place to go for lunch or an early dinner as they open from 11:30-5:30pm M-W and 11:30-9pm T-F.
Enjoy!
The most delicious moist juicy burger in North Sydney, with impeccable service and friendly staff. My regular treat!
This restaurant offers very simple American style burgers and dishes. I ordered the queens burger which consisted of a chicken patty. The burger was juicy, delicious, filling and nicely seasoned.
I genuinely miss working in North Sydney, but only because of this place. The burgers I would say are the best I've ever tasted in Sydney, hands down. Along with a fatty milkshake. You can't go wrong.
Please come to the inner west, you'll be most welcome here ;)
Big old tasty ass juicy ass burger. Hits the spot if you are craving. Which I assume you are...
Ticks most of the classic burger boxes. The chips were also good which can often be a let down
When Five Points Burgers opened in 2015 you would see queues of 15-20 plus patrons lining up during lunch hour. What makes this burger joint so popular apart from good burgers are their delicious milkshakes. The Salted Caramel is a favourite of mine. Along with the Queens burger.

[UPDATE: Thanks to Driss, the owner of Five Points, I was able to try this burger once again (sauces were missing last time), I’m glad to say that it was delicious and my favorite part was the crispy bacon! The sauces complimented the burger. I will be back to try their other burgers!]
Best Burger on the North of the Bridge. Go for the basic one. Very Fresh Ingredients and reasonable priced. Lunch time is crunch time and you may need to wait. Go after 2PM
Nice place to have a burger. We ordered chicken burger... It was juicy and delicious.. I am not a fan of their fries though.. mine were little soft... but the burgers are good...should definitely try once.
Staff - nice.
Ambience - good
Food - excellent
Service - good
Food: burger is tasty. Meat is nicely grilled. Wouldn’t thought of going back for burger as it’s nothing wow factor to bring you back
Service: self service. Can be busy during lunchtime or just takeaway to avoid the busy day
Price: it’s standard burger price.
Good quality burger, tasty meat and nice bun. They have the option of cooking your burger medium rare, or you can choose how you want it done.
Good amount of lettuce and pickle. Cheese is melted on top of the burger and the sauce is nice.
If the restaurant gets busy they also serve their burgers in the foyer of the building next door, where it is easier to get a seat.
There are also bunch of open air tables just down the road
Great joint for burgers. Pictured is the Bronx burger that has double patty. Great size and good flavours. A little messy with the cheese but expected from an American style joint, the onion jam was so delicious, everything just melts in your mouth. What more do you want? Photos speak for themselves. Would recommend.
One of the best burgers ive had in Sydney.
The chips were cooked just the way I liked them (crispy and not soggy). And dont forget to order a vanilla milkshake with your meal!
We had a burger craving so came in for the Bronx and the Brooklyn (a real highlight) with sweet potato fries. Definitely one of the best burger joints with friendly service
The burger was so juicy. It let you feel you are eating a very heavy, nice, and tasty burger. Had chips as well. The staff were friendly and they were smiling all the time.
