Merrywell Burger Bar at Crown

Pull up a seat and feast on succulent, American-style burgers found only at Crown's Merrywell Burger Bar.

Perched directly on the Yarra River in Southbank, this ground-floor extension of Merrywell Bar & Dining offers private nooks, a courtyard and a lively bar to cater for whatever occasion you're celebrating, whether it's a quaint dinner for two or a small crew letting your hair down after a long week at work.

The menu is stacked with fried chicken, fish, veggie and both Angus and Wagyu beef patties sandwiched between two perfectly cooked buns, accompanied by classic toppings like crisp lettuce, tangy pickles and juicy tomatoes. 

If you want to mix it up, opt for The Merrywell–Angus beef and your usual suspects drizzled in a Thousand Island and seeded mustard aioli. Scrumptious.

Sides are also a must, with a smorgasbord of jalapeno poppers, chilli cheesy mac bites and beer-battered onion rings alongside the flawless fries.

Of course, what's an elevated American diner experience without dessert? Merrywell has resurrected a nostalgic fave with the Blue Heaven milkshake, or you can have a peek at what lollies and toppings are available on the night to jazz up your heaping of vanilla or chocolate soft-serve ice cream.

If that has you drooling, Merrywell Burger Bar at Crown is open every day of the week from 12pm. For more information and to book, visit the website.
