Mr Charlie’s, the popular plant-based burger concept, is finally making its long-awaited debut in Melbourne. The beloved fast food brand is excited to announce a two-month residency at CoConspirators Brewpub in Brunswick, starting this Wednesday (4th December) until the 2nd of February.
Mr Charlie’s is redefining fast food with its mouth-watering plant-based burgers that prove you don’t have to be vegan to love what’s on the menu. The pop-up residency will be held at CoConspirators Brewpub in Brunswick, renowned for its innovative craft beers, which pair beautifully with Mr Charlie’s Frowny Meals – a choice of burger, fries, nuggets and sauce served in its signature red and yellow box.
Mr Charlie’s has garnered a loyal following in Sydney and is now bringing its plant-based goodness to Melbourne’s thriving food scene. For the next two months, Melbournians can enjoy the delicious and sustainable burgers that have made Mr Charlie’s a new Aussie favourite. Standout menu items include the signature “Not a Cheeseburger”, a plant-based twist on a classic, featuring a juicy plant-based patty, vegan American cheese, pickles, ketchup and mustard, all tucked into a soft bun. The “Not a Chickenburger” offers a crispy, seasoned plant-based chicken patty, paired with tangy mayo, crisp lettuce, and pickles for the perfect balance of crunch and flavour. And for those looking for a bigger bite, the “Big Mista” delivers a double patty experience stacked with layers of plant-based goodness, including plant-based American cheese, onions, and Mr Charlie’s special BIG Sauce that’s sure to satisfy even the biggest appetites.
Mr Charlie’s is more than just a fast food chain, it’s part of a broader movement towards more sustainable eating. Made to order, using Impossible plant-based ‘beef’ and Tindle plant-based ‘chicken’, Mr Charlie’s burgers put assumptions to the test on what plant-based food can mean. “Plant-based doesn’t mean compromising on best taste. We are on a mission to blow Melbournians minds with unbeatable tasty treats that are good for you and good for the planet.”, comments Lisa Chikarovski owner of Mr Charlie’s Australia.
What was originally meant to be a straightforward expansion has turned into a challenging journey for Mr Charlie’s, after a nasty crash destroyed its first food trailer and its replacement was then stolen just as they reached Melbourne’s shores. “This is the third time we have tried to make it down to Melbourne, but as they say, third time lucky! It’s been a rocky road, but we’re thrilled to finally be bringing our food to Melbourne, the foodie capital of Australia,” said Lisa Chikarovski, owner of Mr Charlie’s Australia.
CoConspirators Brewpub, located in the heart of Brunswick, has built a reputation for its creative craft beers and community-focused atmosphere. The partnership with Mr Charlie’s is an exciting new chapter for the pub, which is known for collaborating with local food vendors to bring fresh culinary experiences to its patrons.
