Chew Burger - Preston

Chew Burger is yet another burger establishment making a bit of a name for itself in the Melburnian burger scene.


Founded by 3 friends, who are local to the area, Chew Burger is their way of giving back to their beloved community. The place serves quality burgers with house made pickles and sauces whilst their brioche buns are sourced from the nearby Northcote Bakehouse.


The space is a simple combination of exposed brick and deep green tiles, where locals can dine at a table or get a burger to go. The menu has 7 burgers, two of which accommodate for vegetarians along with a small selection of sides including fries or onion rings. The wait for the burgers can get a bit long but it didn't bother me too much.


On that night, it seemed the popular burgers were The Plenty or the 3072, the first being a fully loaded double patty beast and the latter a spicy burger with jalapenos and a sriracha slaw.


As for my burger, the brioche buns were buttery and sweet whilst the wagyu beef was cooked perfectly, having a nice crust on the outside whilst still juicy and pink in the middle. I really like the patty at Chew Burger, as the meat is loosely packed together allowing the meat to just fall away with each bite. On the other hand, eating the whole burger proves to be quite messy but I guess that's all just part of the fun.

Not just a place for burgers, the venue is also a gallery where it's shop windows acts as the canvas for local talented artists. So stop by and admire some gorgeous masterpieces and maybe look at some artwork too. *winkwink*
