Country Burgers — Restaurant in Ipswich City

I can remember the stories from my Grandfather reminiscing about the days of a young boy who would go to the burger shop on a Thursday night. “Best Burgers in town” he would say. The day was a Friday, a cheat day for some many including us. The anticipation grew as we walked in reading all the signs with Specials. Walking past each sign, the decision for Lunch changed. Before finally reaching the counter and reading the special above. “Aussie Burger and Chips $10”. A deal so good that if the burger was bad, you couldn’t be upset. Pairing it with a Classic Can of coke only bought the total to $13, a saving which surely results in more beers at the end of the day. Win for all. The burger itself was completed very well, it is a classic combination done well. The patty is juicy, but not greasy which seems to be a compromise so many of us have accepted to be the normal. The chips though are possibly where the fame for shop comes from. Homemade chips, so good that the boss orders $10 worth and nothing else. Well-cooked chips seasoned with Chicken Salt and we are happy. Although the burger and meal was perfect, I have to reserve the 5 out of 5 mark for an experience which changes my life. This place does your classic meals well and consistently well. So if you are after a perfect classic meal, this is the place. If you are after a life changing burger, join me on...

Seen the "Home Made Chips" banner for years yet never stopped. Finally the timing was right, the anticipation of experiencing amazing home made Chips done well had me salivating. Also ordered some calamari as well. Ok so homemade is homemade imperfectly cut with skins on, no problem with that. Around 10% not cut properly resulting in soggy potato wedge like forms wasn't pleasant. With just a little extra care and cooking time & slightly better temperature these could of been great, but they weren't. Most were oily and a bit under cooked. I have cooked homemade chips, & yes I could do better! When I pay for stuff I like to experience something better than I can do, but at just $8 for a size serve that would have been $5 at any other takeaway, ol mate will have to lift his game to keep people stopping with his drawcard line! The calamari wasn't aweful but it wasn't the greatest. The Chips 3/10 The Calamari 6/10. The service good. One other thing to consider for the owner is to clean the mould & dust out of the front breeze curtain too coz health department would shut your show down for that! Seriously, you could do this better with just a few more minutes a day caring! You can do it! Coz if you don't the Ebbw Vale strip will be dead & lose business to the new ones popping up in the new...

This place is one of the worst places I've ever bought food from. I bought some chips with gravy about 2 years ago and the gravy was just black water, absolutely disgusting with no resemblance of gravy whatsoever. The chips weren't the best either. Recently I was on my way to another job and feeling a bit lazy, I stopped in to get a bacon and egg roll. Big mistake. I took a bite and got a mouthful of black grit. I then pulled the roll apart and noticed a large amount of black grit all through the roll and all over the bacon and egg. This place clearly has a problem with hygiene as it was only about 8am, so I can safely assume that the grill had not been cleaned in some time. I will never be back. This place used to be one of the best take away shops in Ipswich, but it was then sold and then sold a few more times and the current owners have been there for a few years now. How they are still in business beggars belief....
