Correction (3 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was checked against public sources on 2 October 2026 and 3 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.
A burger list should be a list of builds. This one is thinner than that. Four places had enough on the public record for us to stand behind them, and only one prints builds we can quote.
Three have Mulgrave addresses: Mad Patties, Q Barbeque and McDonald’s. Neptune’s Seafood Catch is on the Monash Clayton campus. So this is Mulgrave and around. Mess forecasts below are read from the listed build, never from eating one.
The quick picks

|---|---|---|---|
| Named burgers with listed toppings | Mad Patties (Mulgrave) | Double Madness | A$20.00 |

Mad Patties (Mulgrave) — 893 Springvale Rd, Mulgrave VIC 3170
Mad Patties is at 893 Springvale Rd, Mulgrave, and OpenStreetMap tags it as fast food with the cuisine burger. Its order page prints Double Madness at A$20.00, Mad Cluck at A$16.00, Mad Benji at A$15.90 and Mad Plant at A$18.00, plus Loaded (Sausage) at A$11.00. Its own site lists the builds for two of them. The Mad Moo is “Beef, cheese, lettuce, tomato, ketchup, sweet mayo”. The Mad Plant listing reads “Plant-based vegan patty, lettuce, tomato, red onion, beetroot, pineapple” and is cut off after that in the listing we read, so the full build may have more. We read no price for the Mad Moo, so we print none. Online ordering hours read 11:00 AM - 9:10 PM.
On the menu (copied from order.online on 2 October 2026):
- Double Madness: A$20.00
- Mad Cluck: A$16.00
- Mad Benji: A$15.90
- Mad Plant (vegan): A$18.00
Mess forecast: Medium to high for the Mad Plant, going by the part of its build the listing shows: a plant-based vegan patty with lettuce, tomato, red onion, beetroot and pineapple stacked together.
Q Barbeque (Mulgrave) — 907 Springvale Road, Mulgrave VIC 3170
Q Barbeque’s site says “pulled pork, potacos, smash burgers and much much more”. The prices we could read are for platters, not burgers. The smoked platter of 16hr wagyu brisket, 14hr pulled pork, wing, corn rib, onion rings and chips is $25. The Texas Trinity platter for 1 is $25, the Share Platter Board for 2 is $49 and the Bottomless BBQ is $65 or $95. The site also has a “PICKUP ORDER” option. Hours: closed Monday and Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 11:30 am to 8:30pm, Friday and Saturday from 11:30 am to “LATE” with no clock time printed, Sunday from 11:30 am to 8:30pm.
On the menu (copied from qbbq.com.au on 2 October 2026):
- Smoked platter: 16hr wagyu brisket, 14hr pulled pork, wing, corn rib, onion rings, chips: $25
- Texas Trinity platter for 1: $25
- Share Platter Board for 2: $49
- Bottomless BBQ: $65 or $95
Order: We could not read a burger price here, so the safe call from the menu is the Texas Trinity platter for 1 at $25.
McDonald’s Mulgrave (Wellington Rd) — Cnr Wellington & Springvale Roads, Mulgrave VIC 3170
McDonald’s Mulgrave sits on the corner of Wellington and Springvale Roads. OpenStreetMap tags it fast food with the cuisine burger and the hours 24/7, and openinghoursau.com lists every day as 24 hours. That is a third-party directory, so treat the hours as a guide. McDonald’s own site returned an error when we checked it, so we read no menu or prices. Maccas is the 24-hour entry on this page, and that is all we can stand behind.
The build: We read no menu for it, so there is no build to list; the one thing the sources agree on is the hours.
Neptune’s Seafood Catch (Monash Clayton campus) — Ground Floor, Campus Centre, 21 Chancellors Walk, Clayton Campus, Monash University VIC 3800
Monash’s vendor page lists Neptune’s Seafood Catch at Ground Floor, Campus Centre, 21 Chancellors Walk, Clayton Campus. It says “We specialise in traditional fish and chips, seafood, souvlakis, and burgers”. OpenStreetMap tags it fast food with the description Fish and Chips. We read no menu or price. We state no opening hours here. It is described as weekday-only campus takeaway; check with the venue before you go.
The build: Burgers come last on its own list, after fish and chips, seafood and souvlakis, and no burger build is printed in anything we read.
