Delicious fast food - Edit
I love Lord of the Fries and The Flinders St Outlet did not disappoint! I had a delicious mini tropical burger to take away (no seating at this one). I'm quite sure I'll be tempted again next time I pass through Flinders St Station!

Sehr trocken - Edit
Wir waren zum Frühstück hier und waren leider sehr enttäuscht, da wir mehr erwartet hatten. Die Burger waren sehr trocken und ohne Geschmack.

Now with correct location - Edit
As per Happy Cow updates, the address is correct now. It's the kiosk on Flinders St on which could can see across the road from the end of Elizabeth St. Good for quick food before jumping on a train, I suppose.

Pros: near station, vegan

I could only get half way through the sample box in one sitting. It's a good amount of food imo.

There are two branches. One on flinders st/Elizabeth st and the other along swanston street/flinders street. Not sure if you got the other listing removed but you’re incorrect.

To clarify, 3 branches including southern cross

No, the duplicated one was the one that used to be on Elizabeth St, as opposed to the one which actually is on Flinders.
I walked down Elizabeth st about a month ago to confirm,.

Went to flinders st today. 1 on swanston and 1 on flinders st so there are 2 plus southern cross in the city

Sadly disappointed. - Edit
I was looking forward to visiting this place but as disappointed to find their menu is very limited. No sides, no breakfast items and only half the burger choices of other LOTF stores.

Ever since LOTF shut in QLD, I've been living vicariously through the Mac & Cheese boxes at Coles. Finally got to Melbourne and the first thing I got was a munch box. God, I miss the nuggets.
Read morePros: Nuggs, More nuggs, Nuggs the Third

Tasty convenience! - Edit
Wish we had Lord of the Fries in London! Admittedly not so good if you don’t like junk food, but for those of us who do, it’s great value and so convenient.
Read moreAt this branch, we had the tasty nuggets - yum!

Interesting that Flinders St Station has two LOTF stores basically on opposite ends. Pretty consistent vegan fast food though.

Burger ok - Pommes lieber nicht - Edit
Wir waren heute im „Lord of the Fries“ und wurden von den Pommes sehr enttäuscht. Versalzen und nicht ansatzweise knusprig. Schade. Keine Sitzmöbel

Drowning in mayo - Edit
I'm surprised this is my first review here as it's definitely not the first visit. Like most LOTF, it has failed to deliver repeatedly, but sometimes there's just nothing else around that's vegan so it's revisited.
Read moreOn this occasion, I ordered the 'Stinger' which is described as 'melted cheese, bacon, Spicy Mayo & fresh lettuce in between toasted buns'. If there was lettuce in it, I didn't find it under all the mayo that had been heaped into the burger. I ended up discarding the bread roll and eating just the patty (which was actually really good) and the slice of facon, because the rest was inedible. It seems to be a bit of a bad trend at the moment to coat everything in so much mayo that you can't taste anything else...
If I need to eat here again, I may just ask them to skip the mayo and see how that pans out.
Pros: It's vegan, Quick service
Cons: Too much mayo, Inconsistency in food preparation/presentation

Great fast food joint - Edit
We landed in Melbourne around noon and LOF was nearby. We got some very tasty hamburgers delivered to our room. It’s a great franchise that I believe most of its customers don’t even realize it’s plant based.

Vegan mc Donald’s - Edit
You kind of need to be lucky with the person preparing your meal had a few times were the fries were not good or there was just to much sauce on the burger, you couldn’t taste anything else but in general lord of the fried is great if you crave fatty food. The biggie is literally how I remember Big Mac from mc Donald’s

Can't go wrong with LOTF - Edit
LOTF is my go-to comfort food and I nearly visit all of their branches BUT I just need to let everyone know that the Flinders St. outlet has by far the friendliest service. All smiling when serving me and I observed they also patiently helped and explained the menu to the customers after me, again-with a smile. Totally impressed and very happy with the food and the service 🩷 Thank you Team LOTF.

Serves a purpose - Edit
Found this a difficult one to rate, this was probably my first ‘greasy’ corner burger bar since being vegan and it fits that description very well so if that’s all that matters then 5 stars I guess?
Read moreIt didn’t blow me away and I found the menu lacking any description of what the difference between any of the burgers were. It serves a purpose and I’m glad it’s there, fast vegan food

Good burger and crispy fries - Edit
I ordered the original burger and a medium fries. I got the regular patty and the burger was nice. The bun didn’t fall apart and the cheese was melty! I got classic fries with Belgian sauce. I liked that the chips were hot and crispy.
Read moreService was fast and friendly. The location isn’t the nicest part town but everything tasted fresh and I would order there again.

tasty grab and go - Edit
Stopped here to grab food to pack for tennis. All very tasty. Breakfast foods served all day. I got the Chick'n Waffle. I'd get an extra side of syrup as the chick'n sucked up all the syrup and the sandwich was on the dry side. I also had the Classic hot dog and sweet potato fries. There are a number of sauces available. I don't know which one I got, but it was very garlicky. The quintessential fast food joint. No where to sit, just grab it and go.

Yum - Edit
Convenient location at Flinders St station with friendly service and the full range of Lord of the Fries offerings.
Read moreNowhere to sit except so be prepared to take the food to eat somewhere else (maybe by the riverside nearby).
Be aware the late night 20% surcharge which applied from 9 pm on a Sunday night one of the times I visited.
