To celebrate National Burger Day this Friday, Carl's Jr. are offering their Famous Star with Cheese burger for only a buck!!

This offer is available exclusively via the 'My Carl's' App and for T's & C's see the app.

You'll also find more specials on the 'My Carl's' app:

Apple: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/mycarls/id1494882749

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.AppInstitu…

More info at: https://carlsjr.com.au

FYI:

Carl's Jr is not a burger clone, timeline: 1940 McDonald's, 1941 Carl’s Jr. then way later, 1953 Burger King (our HJ’s).
Carl's Jr burgers are 'chargrilled', unlike HJ's 'flamegrilled'.
The burgers are BETTER at Carl's. Try the Angus burger range and taste for yourself.
I DO NOT WORK OR AM ASSOCIATED IN ANYWAY to Carl's Jr. other than being a fan.

    Great promotion. Seeing that you post mostly Carl's Jr, is it a recommended restaurant to eat at? Whats your verdict? I have never tried since its far away. Mostly from distance there is only McDonald's, KFC and Hungry Jack's. Thanks, love your posts though.

      I finally tried their original burger yesterday and I have to say, for $16 (regular meal) it was just OK. They take more care in constructing their burgers over McDonalds/Hungry Jack's, but it's really not worth the premium.

      • pharkurnell on 28/05/2021 - 11:20
        +2

        Yep, I'd agree with that

        still can't beat the small local take away home made burger for lot less than $16 bux.

    • Yummy on 24/05/2021 - 09:36

      Depend where you are at. There is one at Wetherill Park 2164.

    • DingoBlue on 24/05/2021 - 09:37

      It’s very similar to Hungry Jacks but just a little bit better quality.

      I also think it’s one of those places where there are tonnes of items on the menu but you’re best set to simply order the original thing they’re known for. The famous star with cheese is similar to a Whopper IIRC.

      • Click_It on 24/05/2021 - 12:18

        DingoBlue there's a blast from the past! Not your Carls Jnr post but your name - I assume you were a customer on that ISP back in dialup days?

        • dbmitch on 24/05/2021 - 23:14

          damn son, now you're reminding me of when State Bank exsited and still gave away merchandise.

      • pharkurnell on 28/05/2021 - 11:21

        It’s very similar to Hungry Jacks but just a little bit better quality.

        our local Hungrys puts that much mayo on the burgers that by the time you get home you can eat it with a straw… soggy pile of crap sadly…
        not to mention they have shrunk to 1/2 the size they were before they rennovated couple of years ago… they are Big Mac size now.

    This dude is Carl's Jr biggest fan!

    Reading the reviews and previous threads I'm guessing 'the buggers are sh#t house at Carl's Jr'

    BTW, I'm curious to hear more about Carl's Sr.

      I reckon Carl's Sr is dead just like Colonel Sanders, Ronald McDonald & Elvis, just sayin

        Lucky you didn't mention Tupac or Biggie.

      Reading the reviews and previous threads I'm guessing 'the buggers are sh#t house at Carl's Jr'

      Probably butthurt people who don’t like paying more for better quality. HJs is good because it’s cheap with vouchers. Carl’s is good because it’s good.

      Location options are terrible.

    • callumds on 28/05/2021 - 11:24

      Why do they put them in such random locations in Melbourne? Surely you would want one in the CBD or somewhere like Chapel St?

    After eating at a few different Carl’s Burgers, their motto should be “I know how you kids like them - extra schlopppy!”

  • prankster on 24/05/2021 - 10:32

    im worried about the general negative reviews on google for Carl's Jnr @ Wetherill Park Sydney which is disappointing.

    Was expecting more positive reviews considering this was going to be like an in & out burger joint but for $1 I guess I won't be able to resist lol

    • Munki on 24/05/2021 - 10:40

      Definitely go for it at $1, but I wouldn't make it my regular burger joint. I shop at that Joe's Fruit and Veg Market and see people lining up outside all the time. I'm starting to think they're paid or something.

      • Aequitas on 28/05/2021 - 09:13

        If your regular burger joint is a fast food chain, I feel very sorry for you.

        • Munki on 28/05/2021 - 09:57

          I mean I'd feel sorry for you if you eat burgers so often you can call a place your regular…

    • twig on 25/05/2021 - 00:01

      WP one was good when I tried it. Famous (or Star?) Burger wasn't dry and tasted much like how I remembered a whopper used to long ago when it first came out in Australia.

      Would recommend trying, especially at this price point

  • hopper on 24/05/2021 - 10:52

    fortunately CJ is the nearest fast food chain for me, will try and hope its worthy for a $

  • hopper on 24/05/2021 - 10:58

    from the picture it almost looks like cheese burger from McD (expect slice of tomato)

        • smartazz104 on 24/05/2021 - 16:48

          When was the last time Maccas offered a deal on their tiny little cheeseburger?

      • Cheeper on 24/05/2021 - 11:35

        No.. real burgers look very different.

    • Munki on 24/05/2021 - 12:53

      The cheeseburger at Maccas has those finely chopped onions, not whole rings (have read they're like rehydrated onions or some shit). Also doesn't have lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise, or sesame on its bun.

      • jackary on 24/05/2021 - 17:39

      To be fair in melbourne at least all the locations bar one are in super far away places like williams landing and cranbourne where big indian familys love to congregate.

  • Misterbumpy on 24/05/2021 - 11:34

    I’ve had one burger and it was their Famous Star. It’s literally a Whopper in every way. Even having “with cheese” as a separate item on the menu. Might be the Docklands store in Melbourne, but it had all the characteristics of the worst Whoopers I’ve had in my time: pattie kept too long in warmer so it was soggy and lost its grill taste and bun was cool. Had my burger replaced with an identical one.

    • brotherfranciz on 24/05/2021 - 20:42
      +1

      This is funny because I ordered the Big Carl, which is literally a Big Mac in every way! I had a similar experience to you in terms of the taste - haven't been back since, even though it's just a 15-minute walk away…

      • Misterbumpy on 08/06/2021 - 11:30

        I haven't tried the Big Carl, but it does look like the Big Mac just without the middle bun, LOL!

  • hopper on 24/05/2021 - 11:34

    will this offer pop up after4 days? don't see this under offers

  • jerryme on 24/05/2021 - 11:40

    Really not worth the effort to claim but thanks for posting OP.

    I would say $1 accurately represents what most burgers here are worth.

  • BargainKen on 24/05/2021 - 11:42
    +2

    LOL anyone comparing CJ's to Maccas has clearly never been. CJs always had better value for money. I've only ever been when visiting USA however so no idea on the local quality but assume the same.

    • brotherfranciz on 24/05/2021 - 20:53

      I've only ever been when visiting USA however so no idea on the local quality but assume the same.

      LOL in that case, you made a wrong assumption. I've had both in Australia and Maccas is better. Quite a low bar by the way, but that makes it even worse for CJ…

  • oSammy21 on 24/05/2021 - 19:30

    Tried them when they opened up around the corner from me. Essentially a slightly better version of Hungry Jacks is the best description - definitely not worth the price though.

  • pennypincher98 on 24/05/2021 - 19:49

    Great in the US but here it's average. For a dollar it's certainly alright, as is a decent burger from any fast food joint for a dollar.

    Unfortunately relying too much on hype and not enough on actual quality. For those commenting it's a "higher grade burger joint" it's really not both here or US, nor is it marketed like that. At least in the US though they have competitive pricing..

    I’m a fan of their non- burger stuff (waffle fries, thick shakes etc) but their burgers are way overpriced for the quality. I’ve enjoyed their smaller beef burgers, but had this expensive chicken “sandwich” (don’t even get my started on using that word to describe a burger) that was small, dry and average tasting, no better than a maccas chicken burger.

        Sandwich = slices of bread (not bun, panini, Turkish bread, wrap or any other variation!)

        The Earl of Sandwich would be turning in his grave to see the meal named after him being tarnished by Americans!

        What makes a chicken burger different than a hamburger, other than the meat?

        What would a chicken fillet between two slices of bread be called - a chicken slicewich?

        On that subject, what would they call rolls, are they all subs, even if they’re round?

        That will do for now haha!

  • gadgetguy on 27/05/2021 - 16:51

    It says the offer is only in the app but the app has no ordering capability. So it will be a code, barcode or QR code to show at the counter?

    • Yummy on 27/05/2021 - 19:57

      Or, you can just ask 'em.

    • prankster on 28/05/2021 - 10:25

      I know right it’s annoying, I thought I had to sign in and then I signed in but there wasn’t an option to put a username so it’s like how do u log in..

      Edit: they send you an email saying your email address is your username .. geez anyway

      So hope you just show them on the app or some shit coz you can’t redeem or order on the app. I’ll delete this worthless app if I manage to get this $1 burger from wetherill park today (if lucky)

      The Slacks Creek store are accepting the offer, but they need to see Redeemed before doing so. The code is on the top right hand side. If the app fails try stopping it (not just swipe away) and reopening.

      My burger was okay. Cold, but decent. It tasted like it had been steamed.
