Two Yolks is an orange-hued burger joint famed for its brekkie burgers, old-school cheeseburgers, fried-chicken burgs and Cali-style smash burgers. Born in Burleigh Heads, the concept expanded to Brisbane in 2024, taking over the space previously home to Cowch Dessert Bar on Grey Street in South Bank. Two Yolks’ vibrant orange colour scheme and neon signage is offset by a retro-chic palette of walnut tones, fluted glass panels, Japanese-stone mosaic tile floors and Italian-marble countertops, with cushioned booths offering the majority of the venue’s interior seating (street-side dining is also available). At the rear of the space, a DJ set-up is backed by a shelving unit stacked with vinyl records, with DJs coming through on a regular basis to keep the vibes upbeat.
For breakfast, you’ll find brekkie burgs with crispy bacon (or sausage, if you prefer), gooey egg and American cheese, scrambled-egg burgers with cream cheese, chives and basil lime aioli, and breakfast burritos bursting at the seams with scrambled eggs, tater tots, guacamole, Bangalow bacon and Byron Bay haloumi. The all-day range includes old-school smash burgers, Cali-style burgers with lettuce, tomato, caramelised onions and house pickles, fried-chicken burgers, and spicy sloppy Joe burgers filled with house-made mushroom chilli and vegan cheddar cheese. And then there’s the sides (loaded fries, loaded tots, onion rings and even bacon on a stick), coffee from ST. ALi and a clutch of boozy beverages.
