    Better 'smaller' burger
    Nora B.

    This is a classic case of I read all the Yelp reviews, I know I probably should't bother but it is so hyped I'm terrified i'd be missing out on the best burger of my life. True story. So I ordered the cheese burger, it took forever. Yes I know Yelp told me so but come on that was over. I was told my burger is coming with the next batch, no clue what that meant but it sounded like everything was being made fresh. The wait seemed particularly exaggerated because BCC next door was having a function and it was loud, I was scared I won't hear my order name and number. I was on the edge of my seat for 15 minutes. So tense I just want a burger. My number came up. Immediately I was disappointed by the size of the fries. The bun was toasted and made by bread and butter folks, so it was nice but too fluffy and light and so was the pattie, lean and clean but too thin. I just felt there was no bite to my burger at all! The fries were nice tasted homemade and mostly not crunchy. I remained hungry. Here you have it, BB is different and clean (4 stars for putting healthy cheap burgers out there) but more fit for a snack rather than the usual reason you would go seek a burger for. Hunger.

    Popular spot in the downtown Britomart area just beside Britomart Country Club. Small seating area that gets filled very quickly on a sunny Friday with office workers but the quick service makes getting take away a breeze. Friendly service dealing with the large hungry crowds with an impressive amount of bagged potatoes on display/storage! Burgers are fresh, tasty with a generous serving of mayo/sauce! and the milk shake thick and cold enough to cause a brain freeze!

    People often compare Better Burger with some of the other burger joints that have popped up in the last few years. The problem with this is that Better Burger is less of a gourmet experience and more of an upscale fast food experience. If your looking for artisan bread buns and fancy fillings - then Better Burger isn't for you. But if you are looking for simple, straight up and damn good cheeseburgers you won't be disappointed. Oh yeah - do yourself a favour and swap out the soda for a vanilla shake - you won't regret it.

    The first thing you notice is how limited the menu. Do not let this fool you as it only needs the basic menu to satisfy most. Their burgers is simply AMAZING. They should change the name to BEST BURGER

    Great burgers! A little on the small side but still very satisfying. The burger was cooked perfectly and not sloppy like many tend to be. They had a bar which was awesome. Very cool decor, super laid back

    Well, i would not rave about this place but still it was a decent enough burger that we consumed. I ordered the double cheeseburger....it had to be double as i am a big fan of cheese and a single topping would not satisfy my craving. The burger definitely was a lot lot better than a MacDonalds ,or the like( from what i remember from many years ago ).....as i am no more a consumer of " junk food " in such places so probably i am being a bit biased. Maybe could do with a bit more cheese within though. The fries were great, some of the best had from anywhere for a while , and as for the vanilla milkshake i had...WOW!!! it knocked my socks off so to speak. Again one of the best i have had recently. Worth going back to just to get the milkshake. So despite the awesome milkshake and the fries i still give it an average vote....as a bit of work could be done on the burger.

    A double cheese burger combo. With chocolate milkshake.

    This place is nice. Simple menu with simple but tasty burgers. I ordered a double cheese burger combo and swapped my soda for a chocolate milkshake. Their shake had a nice consistency. The one thing that let me down were their fries. Ummm I would've liked it to be hot and crispy but mine weren't. It was cold.. loved the burger though.

    Loved the Mushroom Burger, specially the well-fried chips with its skin on and the strawberry milkshake.

It was open at the time I was in the area and it did look inviting. I perused the menu and decided to give it a try. Walking in I saw the old-fashioned furnishings, metal chairs, display cases, wall shelves, big bar in the middle all in a long and narrow room. Yessss, this looks lie something out of the 50s and I like it. After a long hard look at the menu I opted for the Salami platter... Strangely enough there wasn't salami, but more like a smoked ham, prosciutto like meat. It tasted great, so what's in a name. Delicious heirloom tomatoes, capers, salami impersonator, cream cheese, capers, pickles and your choice of bread. I had chosen crumpets and regretted that . Not because they weren't delicious, because they were so yummy, but they were also so buttery that I couldn't get the cream cheese to stick and everything I tried to put on the crumpet just slid right off them. I got the bottomless cup of coffee and I must say, this is really good coffee and the refills kept coming also. I love the atmosphere in here and there are so many great choices on the menu. If I ever come back tot Auckland, I will definitely stop by this place again.

It's a popular place and they were crowded but we didn't have to wait for a table. There was plenty of food for each order. My wife had a street dog and fries and I had a Ruben. They were pretty decent. I wasn't as happy with the fries. They were like the bottom of a pile and mostly little pieces with very few full length slices. Prices were extremely reasonable. I would definitely eat there again.
