Tasty food, healthy alternative options and incredible service from a team that will make you feel like part of the family, that’s what Grill’d Melton strives for.
The Mighty Melbourne burger is Melton Grill’d partner Glenn Baillie’s personal favourite menu item.
“It’s our signature, but we like to cater to all tribes- vegan or vegetarian. Our meat free range is massive,” he said, adding the restaurant also offers keto and paleo options.
Not only does Grill’d make incredible burgers, the service is outstanding too. Grill’d Melton is ranked second in the country for customer experience.
“I’m so grateful for the team I have here. You know if the team is happy then that naturally flows onto the guest experience, which is a testament to the locals,” Mr Baillie said.
“Sustainability is also massive for us. Our packaging and restaurants are actively trying to be more sustainable with our products and ingredients.”
Located in Woodgrove Shopping Centre, the team can’t wait to see the new outdoor dining precinct open up this week.
Mr Baillie said it’ll be a great place for locals and families.
“It’s an exciting area where people can bring their families, sit down to eat and have a nice lunch in a nice place to gather.”
Grill’d Melton is also pioneering positive growth in the community. Every month, it supports three local community groups by giving away $500.
Each guest that purchases a burger receives a token to cast a vote for the winning group. The monthly winner receives $300 with the other two community groups receiving $100 each.
“Connection and belonging is really important to us in the community,” Mr Baillie said.
Since Grill’d launched its Local Matters Program, it has donated over 6 million dollars to local communities and supported over 30, 000 groups nationally.
Locally, Grill’d has supported groups like Melton Dragons Basketball Club, Pentland Calisthenics and, most recently, helped Wolfpack Basketball fundraise $350 at a burger night.
The restaurant is on the lookout for more groups to join the Woodgrove Local Matters community. To apply head to
