I've been there a couple times. I've had the sloppy joe, cheeseburger and the Laurie Dee single patty. My husband has also had the regular fries, chillie fries and the double bacon burger. We have also had the frozen custard desserts. Personally the desserts are a big win. They are big as well so you can share one.
As for quality of the burger, it tastes great. Its very juicy and lots of yummy sauce and fresh ingredients. It is a little on the greasy side, but it is an American style burger your eating not some low fat burger. It's great for a treat.
I wrote the value as 3/5 as it is expensive for a burger. I went there today and I just ate a Laurie dee single burger. My husband a double bacon burger and we shared a regular chips and it cost us $23.10. We didn't buy any drinks mostly because I always carry my water bottle, however they do sell drinks and if you buy a large you can get unlimited refills. So, if we do buy a drink we would share one. They have a variety of flavours even Portello. If you like cold rock then give the desserts a go. I will be going back

Approximate cost: $23.10

Having seen this new restaurant in the Epping Plaza, and in the mood for a burger, my husband and I stopped in. As I am Canadian and they advertise Chicago dogs and chili cheesefries - two American classics I miss from home, I ordered those and my husband a bacon and cheeseburger. Sooo disappointing. The food took a while to get there, which seemed strange as it was mid-afternoon and the place was nearly empty, but we figured as the restaurant was new that might be the reason. My $8ish chili cheese fries lacked chili flavor and cheese. The $8ish Chicago dog missed the mark by a longshot - tasteless hotdog, lack of celery salt, chopped pickles...although it was moderate sized, it lacked taste and and authenticity. But by far the most disappointing was my husbands burger which arrived with a very overcooked, mangled patty and overcooked, dried out bacon. He took it back and another was delivered by a lady who promised she had just made it fresh. It looked better, but when he took a bite, oil poured out the side - very gross. And just not good enough for the prices they charge. At nearly $30 for the meal, it was so disappointing - we won't be back. Poor value, terrible food and lacklustre service.

Approximate cost: $9.00

This is possibly one of the friendliest eateries in Melbourne. The food is good too! It takes on an American diner style and offers burgers, fries and soda and delicious custard desserts. It is a little more expensive than your normal take away burgers but they do taste really good.

I would only go back there if they had a super special i couldnt resist. The meals took sooo long to come out to us and it wasnt busy at all. The staff wernt overly friendly and the meals wernt overly wow either. The booth like tables were a bit fun though, maybe id take the kids next time see what they think

My wife and I usually visit Epping to do our shopping and this time we thought we would visit Laurie Dee's. I can't say that I was really impressed. It took us a long time to be served and a long time for the food to come out and it was not overly busy.

The milk shake and frozen custard I had were delicious and I might order a take away in the future but I wont be going back for a sit down meal.
