About
Uncle Georges has quickly become a viral sensation in Wollongong for its premium smash-style burgers. Fans love the juicy patties and the nostalgic, retro vibe. However, the popularity means long queues and a price point that some find steep for a burger-only menu. The thick shakes are more like soft-serve sundaes, which is a point of contention for some.
