Batch Burgers & Espresso

The verdict

In case you hadn't noticed, burgers have become big business in Sydney. Gone is the pretense of eating tiny, gastronomically decadent portions served on oversized white plates – the most popular fare today is a juicy beef burger with a side of ketchup-topped fries. On the north side of the harbour in Kirribilli is Batch Burger, an American-style diner serving – you guessed it – burgers, with an extensive range of options, as well as chilli hot dogs and pulled pork sandwiches. Go for a side of mac-and-cheese and onion rings to make it an authentic all-American experience.
