Big Jim’s nails the unpretentious milk-bar era with massive old-school burgers, crackling chips, and house-made Greek sweets at throwback prices. Holland Park regulars treat the counter like an extension of their childhood kitchen—greaseproof paper bundles, hefty fish burgers packed with hot barramundi, and a classic burger with the lot stacked high with beetroot, bacon, fried egg, and pineapple. Fried flake emerges crisp alongside hot chips, while the glass cabinet turns out fresh Greek salads, tiramisu, and house-made banoffee pie.
