burger burger

me and a friend came here for lunch and got ourselves a fish burger meal with their fries, and i’m literally in love with their fries. their burgers are again really over hyped and not that nice, but their milkshakes and fries are amazing. the service is alright and when me and my friend came here it wasn’t that busy so it was nice. wouldn’t highly recommend it though.

avoid the fish it's cooked from frozen dry and cardboard in texture.  otherwise pretty average, not good enough to justify the price.  there's a lot of noise inside mainly due to the extractor fans in the kitchen, but lots of noise hustle and bustle can be a good thing.

came here last week friday. and i was not disappointed, i was quite pleased with my experience. from looking outside into the restaurant it looked busy, when we entered we were seated, and had a few minutes to browse the menu, when we were finally asked to order we were then told there would be a 20 minute wait, which i feel we should’ve been told before we were seated. that’s the only downside but other then that everything was pretty good! burgers are a little overpriced for what you receive but they’re still yummy. the curly fries are the best and the coruba libre is to die for! because the restaurant was busy, it was very loud and hard to hear who you were talking to, but that’s expectable on a busy night, so i understood it was busy as i work in hospitality my self and when it’s busy, that’s just what you get along side with it. would come back again :)

just got takeaway dinner from here tonight and wow!! burgers ✅✅ fried chicken ✅✅ and the peanut butter choc thick shake ✅✅✅✅ i had the "ol smokey" burger medium with added pickles, i can't fault it. food was ready at estimated pick up time, so food was still hot when it got home :) highly recommend

we had lunch at the newly opened burger burger in takapuna yesterday.  we had heard good reports of the other sites so were very much looking forward to it.  we were not disappointed as the the ambience, staff and especially the food were very good.  we chose the lamb burger, pork burger, potato skins, roast broccoli salad, and an amazingly refreshing cucumber & mint soda. the burgers were simple, with lots of very tender juicy slow-cooked meat and condiments that added to the flavour.  the potato skins were divine - golden crispy outside and light and fluffy inside. the roast broccoli was smothered in slices of garlic and almonds  - a great dish.  this is great addition to the cafe scene and we are now looking forward to visiting the sister restaurant, fish fish.
after having a great meal at burger burger a few weeks ago we just had to sample the fish fish side of things. we ordered terakihi (the fish of the day) and snapper, both panko-crumbed, with fries. we also had the pineapple & chilli soda and the juniper, lime & ginger soda. the fish was absolutely fresh, moist and beautifully cooked with golden crisp coatings. the fries were massive agria chunks, perfectly cooked - crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside. the sodas were light, clean tasting, and very refreshing. simple dishes perfectly executed - overall hard to fault.

i never had a chance to make it to the ponsonby or newmarket branch and had heard good things, so it filled me with anticipation when i heard they were opening in takapuna. perhaps because i had such big expectations i was left a little disappointed, whereas if i had no expectations i would of been happy enough.

first visit: i got the beef burger, 'medium rare' ($12), and added cheese for $2 extra. my friend got the chicken burger with no extras, and we shared some overpriced shoestring fries for $8 - the portion size was small considering the $8, and they tasted a little strange (i think it was the oil which i didn't like). the pricing structure of the burgers is also strange, the base prices are okay ($12) but then $2 to add lettuce or $5 to add bacon?!!

my beef burger was a let down. it says on the menu it is cooked medium rare (which i love about eating beef burgers at good burgers places in the us, but haven't found very often in nz). however there was no pink at all in mine, it was more like medium-well done. a small part of the beef was gristly, but worst of all the burger was smothered in way too much mustard/mayo/pickle sauce, which completely overpowered the beef which should be the star of the show. the $2 cheese slice was super small, almost non existent. my friend liked his chicken burger, but didn't find it amazing.

second visit: i came with a larger group and got the special - the  'mcfly' chicken burger (fried chicken, lettuce, bacon, cheese); it was awesome. the only downside was the $18 price tag, considering i could easily eat two of them. my vegetarian friend found a very obvious meat bone (we assume chicken) in his vegetarian burger! luckily he isn't the sort of guy to make a big deal out of it, some vegetarian's would go ape s**t! he complained, and it was quickly replaced, with an apology and he was not charged for his meal. he enjoyed the burger despite the initial experience and it couldn't of been handled better by the staff after he let them know. the others in my group got the lamb burger, one of them thought it was just 'okay' the other 'really good'. the potato skins we shared were a big improvement over the shoestring fries on the first visit.

i noted they have a really good beer list; lots of craft beers, which is a big plus!

all in all, good burgers without hitting the amazing level i was hoping for - the mcfly was close, the beef burger a big let down. the prices are expensive considering the size of burgers, particularly the 'extras' and some of the sides, which is the biggest reason i'm rating this so low... this place is not good value for money at all, for their prices the quality should be much higher.

▪️plenty of seating
▪️tricky location
▪️great atmosphere

loved the vibe here! busy and vibrant and their service is so good too. we all ordered the cajun chicken burger with curly + kumara fries.

okay lemme just start off with the hot sauce they give you with their kumara fries...talk about a freakin party for your tastebuds!! i'm definitely basing most of my rating just on this sauce hahaha. cannot complain with their sides at all. as for the burgers...i feel that they're a little overrated when you compare the portion sizes with what you're paying. the flavours were tasty though! food arrived in minutes and their menu has a lotta vegetarian options which is always a bonus. the taka burger burger branch is worth a visit!!

we ended up finally trying out burger burger after all the hype.
we were seated immediately.
but definitely weren’t that mind-blown by the burgers. 
prices were decent for the size of the burger but were, expecting a bit more. 

i ordered pull pork burger which the taste was good but for the size / price ratio is disappointing. burger fuel/velvet burger is much better for value.

great presentation, and the fries were lovely.nothing out of the ordinary.not sure whether i would go back in a hurry though 😒

atmosphere: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
food: ⭐️⭐️
service: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
price : ⭐️⭐️⭐️

was excited to try but felt only like takeaways. called and apparently they don't do phone orders, only online. decided to go to the store at about 9.20pm but got looked at strangely by staff member and got told that your shut! forty minutes before closing! won't be giving you another shot any time soon.

the basic beef burger is pretty good. my wife had the special which was a beef burger with haloumi and harissa which was fantastic. the potato skin fries were ok. another at the table had the lam burger with lettuce instead of a bun, which was pretty good. kids had child beef burgers which were quite nice and a lemonade which was very good. nice venue and staff were good.

i went here for the first time in the weekend. i got the beef with cheese burger and my sister got the lamb. they were both nice but hard to eat as they fell apart especially the lamb burger. for the price though, i was fairly satisfied. we also got curly fries and they were good. for drinks i opted for the salted caramel shake that was also good. my sister got the special banoffee shake which she also enjoyed.

there are burgers and there is burger burger, a lot say they make the best burgers in auckland well we are here to find out. we started with the most basic ones which is their cheese burger (nz$14.00) which is made with nz grass-fed beef patty, pickles, tomato jam, mustard, mayo and aged cheddar. we also tried their fish burger (nz$14.00) which is prepared with panko-crumbed market fish, caper dill mayo, tomato jam, rocket and squeeze of fresh lemon. burger was amazing, juicy and meaty, i guess i can agree that they make great burgers if not the best in auckland.

the beef and cheese burger with an additional egg is really good. way better than the one i had at newmarket (slightly overcooked patty)

beef and cheese burger (5/5) - the egg yolk actually wasn’t cooked properly so it was still runny. that’s a good thing as my bun soaked up the mustard and ketchup, as well as the egg yolk. the patty was cooked to medium rare (which is what i chose). only downside is it’s a little messy to eat so i chose to use a fork and a knife because the egg yolk mixed with the sauces on my hands wasn’t a fun time.

we were a table of six so this turned out to be an expensive burger meal with shakes at $13 a pop, side $8 and $14 but more unpleasant was how grimy it all felt, the toilet a disgrace. told to order on an app previously, i wanted to comment that the novelty of this was lost, we are not 12, i am not paying your prices to do your job for you! this time we had a waitress who was lovely. we were there on a monday evening, the buns from the weekend (obviously) were stale, the fries arrived drowning in aole with no option to dip them (wasted), the meat on the lamb burger was tasteless and dry. the most frustrating part was i took the time to call and discuss this with the manager who answered with a practised but tight curt thanks for the feedback, and glibly ended the call - we will not be back burger fuel offer a better value fresher burger.

always delicious and the staff is very friendly. and the kids love it too! the outdoor seating area is great.
