Expect to find all the favourites from the American burger chain, including chargrilled burgers, natural-cut fries and hand-scooped ice cream milkshakes.
Following a lengthy list of delays and a whole lot of anticipation, the cult-favourite American burger joint Carl’s Jr has finally opened the doors to its very first Geelong venue.
Setting up in the Armstrong Creek Town Centre, surrounded by the likes of Dan Murphys, KFC, McDonald’s and Coles, the fast-food chain — renowned for its monstrous stacked buns — is taking on Geelong’s famously good burger scene with its new store, officially swinging open the doors on Friday, July 8.
Keep up with the latest food and booze news across the region here.
Celebrating its opening by giving away a year’s worth of free food to the first 50 customers (the word is a hungry local even camped on the roof to secure their prize), this new local edition of Carl’s Jr will be dishing up its signature menu of ‘American classics’ – includes their Chargrilled Thickburgers and Hand-Scooped Ice Cream Milkshakes.
