Paul's Famous Hamburgers

5 out of 5 stars
Standing solid since 1957 just off Tom Ugly’s Bridge in the heartland of Sylvania is this old-school burger joint – and it’s a mandatory road trip stop

Time Out says

This no-frills shop has been serving classic Aussie-style hamburgers since 1957 – and it makes one of Sydney’s best.

Burgers cost anywhere from $25-$30 these days, so getting a delicious, generous and freshly made burger for $15.50 makes you feel like you’ve won the day.

Paul’s Famous Works burger, layered with a meat patty, fresh salad, fried egg, melted cheese, bacon and pineapple, is where it’s at. The worst bit? It’s over too soon. Pair yours with an old-school vanilla milkshake and it’s one seriously good meal.

Time Out tip: Go at off-peak times and you may have the place to yourself, say, 4pm on a Friday. And they are mandatory on any South Coast road trip.
