Holy burgers! I signed up on an app called The Burger Collective and found a promo deal with this burger joint. $4 burger and drink combo!
I got takeaway, so I can’t say much about the ambience of the restaurant. It did look super cool inside. I can say that if you have a hangry girlfriend, do take her here. You will be forgiven.
Overall the burger had a great taste to it. However the patty was just a little over on the well done side. So maybe asked for the patty to be cooked medium rare. But can’t complain, as I only paid $4!
I loved this place and would give 4.5 if Zomato still let me do that. I like the American diner idea of having booths as it provides a bit of privacy and makes even busy restaurants feel that bit more cozy. Honestly, I loved the aesthetic of the entire restaurant, it's the sort of place that you want to eat at before you even read the menu. Speaking of the menu, there is a large selection here, obviously inspired by the cuisine of Brooklyn. It's extremely flavoursome and more-ish, though I could've done with a warning on the menu of how spicy my nachos were going to be; they were great, but I also went through my entire table bottle of water!
Would certainly recommend this place generally however, I will definitely be revisiting when I get a chance.
HEY FRANKY! TAKE A LOAD OF THIS GUY! HEY I’M WALKING HERE!
The waiters and waitresses might as well should have been yelling this because both my partner and I felt like we were transported to Brooklyn itself. The vibes were cool and inviting, and I was quite sure my partner was frothing at the mouth like a rabid dog on heat for some juicy burgers. He kept asking me to call him “Lil Joey from the streets”. Well, Lil Joey sure did love the food at Brooklyn depot. The fried chicken and sauce? Lil Joey gave a thumbs up. The burger? Two thumbs. Service?? Hell, Lil Joey somehow managed three thumbs.
Love this little joint at Surry Hills! Open early close late coupled with wonderful staff. Am a big fan of the naked burger. Good selection of beverages to go with the food.

Get my weekend lunch Today in here with the bun off and get some house salad.. the burger of the month is my fav Crispy turkey with cranberry mayo and crumb Pattie and gravy.
The other one are They fav menu for all time with mozarella stick!!!
Hot spot for a fun night out. Large menu so a fantastic variety to choose from. The French Toast Toastie was outstanding and the thick shakes were worth treating yourself to. Save room for dessert as the Nutella Creme Brûlée was a Must !! All in all good food and great atmosphere.
Choices for dayssssss - the best part about coming to depot, every visit is a new visit, never run out of something new to try 😍 definitely get around their loaded fries, with 'frickles' (deep fried pickles?!) and alcoholic shakes!
Lobster mac & cheese. These were the words I have been waiting to read since my 2014 trip to the US. The concept was the same but the execution was different. Pretty good though.
The restaurant/bar had a funky vibe and is pretty much on trend. It would be a great venue bring a group, except they don't take bookings.
If you love big American-style burgers and a tasty twist on traditional American cuisine, you’ve hit the jackpot with Brooklyn Depot.
The burger and cocktail bar have recently expanded their menu to include a variety of share plates that taste just like the all American classics, but look very different from them! Take the Cheeseburger Empanadas or the Lobster Mac and Cheese for example – deliciously different🍔🧀🍗
They also have a superb selection of interesting cocktails starting from $14, an excellent accompaniment to their menu choices🍸
Conveniently located on Holt Street in Surry Hills, Brooklyn Depot is a great place to get your American fix. My only advice, come hungry!

There are times when you just want to forget about calories and cut loose with a mountain of comfort food in front of you. If today is one of those days then Brooklyn Depot in the restaurant hub of Surry Hills is the place to be. Brooklyn Depot was founded on the Gold Coast in early 2015. The award winning American burger and bar concept was inspired by New York’s old Brooklyn and quickly won a string of awards including ‘best hamburgers’. It wasn’t just the burgers that were a hit with locals and tourists, but their clever hot dawgs, Brooklynised skinny fries, BBQ pork ribs, cocktails and thick hand spun milkshakes.Due to the success of the Gold Coast venue, Brooklyn Depot also opened locations in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.
