When it comes to comfort food, there’s nothing more satisfying than tucking into a mouthwatering burger. Once upon a time, a burger would consist of a combination of meat, cheese, bread and sauce, but these days the options are endless. Whether you’re into fried chicken, love a classic flame-grilled patty, or prefer a plant-based alternative, here’s a list of the best burgers at Westfield Southland.

Classic cheeseburgers

When cravings strike for something cheesy and comforting, you can’t go wrong with a classic cheeseburger. Loved for its simplicity, the cheeseburger is typically made up of a meat patty, sliced cheese, pickles and sauce on a freshly baked bun. A favourite for all ages, the humble cheeseburger is a classic on the menu of many Australian restaurants, but today you can find a variety of different takes on the classic, from double cheeseburgers with an extra patty and slice of cheese, to burgers loaded with extra ingredients like bacon, onion rings or barbeque sauce.

Crispy chicken burgers

The key to a delicious chicken burger, whether it’s crunchy Southern fried chicken or a classic chicken schnitzel, is fresh salad to offset the richness of the fried fillet. Choose from your traditional lettuce and mayo combo, or opt for a tasty salad mix of beetroot, avocado and garlic aioli for a flavour sensation.

Health-conscious burgers

Want a burger that's big on flavour, but not on the calories? You're in luck! Many retailers are now offering healthier options. Look for burgers with low-carb bun varieties, lean or grilled meat and chicken, stacks of salad, as well as fish and vegan patties. Some restaurants have even embraced Beyond Meat, a plant-based substitute that’s equal in protein to meat.
