The doughnut cabinet

Before Burg World there was Doughnut World, the gourmet doughnut shop Darren and Stacey ran in Daisy Hill. The cabinet came with them. It opens at 8am with coffee and drinks, three hours before the burger kitchen fires up.

  • Cinnamon Roll
  • Chocolate Chip Cookie
  • Viral Dubai Cookie
  • Choc Chip Nutella
  • Caramel Mudcake
  • Bueno Cheesecake
  • Strawberry Cheesecake
  • Snickers Brownie
  • Cookies and Cream
  • Cinnamon Roll Doughie

Our story

It started with a birthday doughnut burger

Darren and Stacey Kelly are a husband-and-wife team. For a few years they ran Doughnut World, a gourmet doughnut shopfront in Daisy Hill. For its second birthday they made a one-off special: smash patties, cheese and pickles between two glazed doughnuts.

It went so well that they decided to build a shop around the idea. Burg World opened on 30 September 2023 at 20 Siganto Drive, Helensvale, a couple of minutes from the theme park strip. The name is a nod to the neighbours.

When they couldn’t find trades to finish the fit-out, they did it themselves, with help from family, friends and a lot of online tutorials. The result is lavender and red, white subway tiles, black pendant lights and plush red booths, with room for 25 or so inside and out.

The menu still runs on the same idea: smash burgers made by people who care about food, a doughnut cabinet that changes with their mood, and a rotating special so there is always a reason to come back.

I will forever recommend Burg World to everyone I meet in this lifetime and the next. My goodness - their donuts, burgers, shakes are always spot on. I’ve been following Doughnut World since the Daisy Hill days and seen their evolution into Burg World. Everything Mad Dog releases is just so good. It’s such a pleasure eating food made by a foodie!

Delicious food. I tried the cheese and bacon fries, definitely recommend. Giselle was lovely! Her service was immaculate and definitely deserves extra credit!
