Hey JB Lovers,
It’s been a busy few months for us in the Burger World as we prepare to welcome in 2012. This year we doubled our number of stores with now four locations under our belt, we’ve enjoyed spreading the burger lovin’ all over Perth! Our William St and Freo stores both opened with a bang this year to crowds of customers embracing our locally owned brand as well as our stalwarts of Leedy & Subi continue to hum even with increased competition.
From myself Justin & the whole JB’s team we want to thank you for your patronage; you obviously have great palettes as well as integrity as we continue on our journey of delivering a fully WA owned & operated burger joint; the proof is in the pudding when you read below.
Our WA branded supply chain is a very proud feature of our business model.... have you ever asked yourself when pondering what burger bar to dine at, where is that beef from, the lamb, the chicken.... the chips; are they fresh, are the from Western Australia? Ummm...free range, organic, WA.... we’ll let you guys make your own mind up.
Mr Food, Rob Broadfield threw down the gauntlet claiming that ‘Jus Burgers Rules ‘scoring Jus Burgers higher/better than Grill’d in his weekly food review for the West Australian...we were stoked. Comments such as, ‘Genius meat, properly cooked’, ‘Great burgers, fair dinkum about producers & local growers’, ‘ Top Notch’, Over the road at Jus Burgers, everything’s just a little more on the money, smart, cluey staff’, Jus Burgers seems to really walk the walk when it comes to the provenance of its proteins, local sourcing & innovation in the kitchen. Coupled with his description of Jus Burgers in 2012 Perth ‘Good Food Guide’ www.westgoodfoodguide.com.au as ‘the original and still the best’, we were all very excited. When a man with as respected palette as his makes these calls you just have to sit up & take notice; not bad for a small local WA burger bar!
Nathan, Nat and Shaun from Nova also popped into the Northbridge store to claim it was their favourite Perth burger joint for the new ishoperth newspaper, who also recently printed our burgers ‘never, ever fail to disappoint’. The journo goes on to say,’ i love what Justin Bell has brought to Western Australia & the way he supports WA growers & suppliers but most of all i like that his burgers are always jus right!
The nationally recognised Gourmet traveller magazine included JUS in the Perth section’s Best Restaurant Guide/cheap eats for our ‘ubiquitous burger bars’.
‘eat – Australia’s Best Dining Experiences,’ a fantastic new cookbook just recently out featured our Leederville store with a sexy four page spread about how we roll at Jus Burgers……fresh, local and NO FREEZER allowed. A national publication we were amongst such foodie Mecca’s as ‘Cutler & Co’, Ezard & Longrain & The Greenhouse & Andaluz here in WA.
In June this year we were thrilled to be awarded one of only ten “Rising Star Awards’ from the WA business news annual awards evening www.risingstars.com.au/RisingStarsAwardsProgram/Winners/2011Winners/tabid/130/Default.aspx
A month later at an awards ceremony at the Hyatt hotel we received a nod of recognition from the FIA (food industry association) for our achievements in ‘Environment and Sustainability’ within all of our stores. Very important in today’s world I’m sure you’ll agree.
Phew…..it’s been a busy year! Next year see’s Jus Burgers shooting East and try our hand at showing Melbourne what Perth has that they don’t. Most of all we look forward to another busy year, doing what we do best and serving up Australia’s Best Burgers!

Wishing you a very safe and happy holiday period,
Justin and the JB team
