Hamilton Bites into a New Era of Burger Bliss with Dumbo

Dumbo

Hamilton’s Portside Wharf welcomes a fresh face to its dining scene with the arrival of Dumbo, a 90s New York-inspired bar and burger joint brought to you by the acclaimed Happy Fat Group.

This isn’t just another burger bar, though. Co-owners Bonnie Shearston and Tom Sanceau, the hospitality masterminds behind renowned Brisbane establishments like Red Hook, Ruby, My Dear, and formerly Coppa Spuntino, have crafted a unique experience that elevates the classic burger joint to new heights.

Dumbo, drawing its name from the iconic Brooklyn neighbourhood, offers a diverse menu that extends far beyond the humble burger.  Think succulent wings, vibrant salads, flavour-packed po’boys, and authentic bagels, all complemented by an extensive drinks list.  The stylish venue near the waterfront provides both indoor and outdoor seating, promising a relaxed yet sophisticated atmosphere.

Burger lovers can rejoice in Dumbo’s impressive selection of 11 signature stacks.  A standout choice is the Uptown Funk, a symphony of beef, cheese, gorgonzola, caramelised onions, bacon, and a signature Dumbo sticky glaze.

The menu also caters to diverse palates with chicken and plant-based burger options.  For those seeking culinary adventures beyond the burger realm, the street eats menu has tempting choices like the classic NYC dog, pastrami bagel, Southern fried chicken and waffles with Korean hot honey, and beef brisket nachos.  And let’s remember the essential side: salt and vinegar fries.

Dumbo doesn’t disappoint on the drinks front either.  The carefully curated bar menu features an array of classic martinis (including espresso and a bloody shiraz gin spritz currently on tap), tap and bottled beers, and a thoughtfully chosen wine list encompassing bubbles, pinks, whites, and reds.

 For those abstaining from alcohol, a nostalgic, “thicc” malt milkshake offers a delightful throwback to old-school diner culture.

Adding to its appeal, Dumbo has introduced enticing weekly specials.  Mondays bring the joy of $10 cheeseburgers, a welcome treat for budget-conscious diners.  And for those seeking luxury, a fried chicken and champagne pairing promises an indulgent experience.

With its prime location, diverse menu, and the experienced hands of the Happy Fat Group at the helm, Dumbo is poised to become a favourite destination for Hamilton locals and visitors alike.
