Grease Monkey

Another secret menu item.... 🥔🥔 mash and gravy🥔🥔 Your either a lover or a hater of mash on a burg. This was a treat with the crispy fried chicken. Add in double cheese, pickles and thick gravy to bring it all together. Only downfall was the price, at $18 it's on the steeper side of what you should pay for a burger. Does come with chips though.

Shhhh - new secret Menu 🐔🐔 Double double🐔🐔 Double southern fried chicken thighs, greasey sauce, bacon and cheese. Well at least that’s what I think the ingredients are given there's no menu. And don't let photo fool you, it was big! Super greasy chicken but epically juicy, lashings of smokey bacon and a creamy sauce. Only downfall was the third degree finger tip burns. Now off to hosptial for a triple bypass...

Good solid burger. Would come back. It was Chicken onion lettuce tomato and cheese plus the famous greasy sauce. Would go back!!!!!

El Chapo 🌮 Continuing my burger adventure in Canberra, I swung by Grease Monkey as I heard they were worth a visit. Their current special is pretty much nachos on a burger which is executed really well. All the flavours meld together nicely, the black bean and corn beef patty was nice and juicy and had a great Mexican flavour. The cheese sauce and guac softened the salsa and jalapeños and the corn chips gave a nice difference with the texture. I’m a big fan of burgers that you can’t fit your mouth around but all the burgers here are relatively small so a few points lost there. Reminiscent of a classic take away shop style burger, the ingredients are fresh and buns are soft and nicely toasted. Flavours are awesome but it’s a shame about the size. At least all burgers come with a side of chips to fill up on!

I'm here at Floriade for an author event, couldn't go past the Grease Monkey food truck. Their standard burger has a soft bun, juicy thin patty but their presentation was lacking, bit of lettuce and sauce overload wasn't the best. But it was during the busy lunch rush so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt :-) Would love to try their proper store next time

My Canberra verdict: Been here a few weeks for work, thought I would revisit the #1 burger I sampled. And added Mac and cheese this time 👍🏽👍🏽 It’s a really solid burger. Tasty beef well cooked and the best buns in Canberra by a long way. I got it deliverood to my hotel (again) because it it’s fucked up cold down here and I’m not going anywhere at night, but I would love to visit the joint as it sounds like It has a great vibe. All in all, the Canberra burger scene Is strong. Grease Monkey and Mookie at the top off the pile Pro Tip: the Harbenaro Mayo here is unreal. Get It. Dip your chips in it.

A solid option in our nation’s capital! Just had it deliverood before the state of origin and it hit the spot. It was small but very tasty. I guess the closet sydney comparison would be Mary’s. Well worth a visit when in Canberra 👍🏽 - beef 🥩 - lettuce 🥬 - cheese 🧀 - onion - pickle - relish - special sauce

Almost everything about this burger was insanely delectable. The flavour JUST missed the mark, but the size, texture, construction of all the ingredients (which were cooked JUST right) was spot on. It didn't taste bad by any stretch - it just didn't POP.
