Grill’d, Australia’s favourite home-grown burger brand, will cruise into Bondi Beach on September 18, with its 166th national restaurant opening.
The iconic Sydney beachside suburb will deliver on the promise of bangin’ burgers and an awesome summer restaurant vibe.
To celebrate the opening, three local Bondi lifeguard legends, Harrison Reid, Ryan ‘Whippet’ Clark and Dean Gladstone will build their favourite Grill’d burger to battle it out for donations to their nominated charities. Guests that visit the Bondi restaurant can vote via the Grill’d Local Matters jars, a national initiative that gives back to local communities. Visitors can also order the burgers built by the boys!
“Having the boys come onboard to build their own burgers, and raise awareness and funds for their chosen charities is 100% aligned to our focus of giving back to local communities,” said Simon Crowe, Grill’d Founder.
