Takeaway in North Bondi
Long-running North Bondi chicken-burger specialist on Campbell Parade doing grilled and fried chicken burgers, wraps, wings and loaded fries for around $15 a plate.
Formerly Olie's Grilled Chicken.
This is one of North Bondi's genuine old-timers, flipping chicken burgers since 2007. We'd choose it for a proper feed at a fair price over a designed-for-Instagram burger, and the loyalty in its reviews shows it delivers consistently.
Their reason-for-being is the chicken burgers (grilled or fried) — the Ben Buckler is the one locals name, and there are wraps for a lighter option plus wings and loaded fries to round it out.
Casual, unpretentious takeaway shopfront
Local tip: Order ahead on the app or by phone at peak times — it's a small kitchen and the counter gets a queue on warm evenings when everyone's drifting up from the beach.
Worth knowing: It's a workaday takeaway counter, not a sit-down destination — you're here for the burger, not the view or the room.
Hours, prices and menus change — always check the venue’s own site before you go. Spotted something out of date? We keep this directory current; details reflect our last check.
