    Old smokey.
    Jack C.

    Burger burger! They named it twice just in case you think they sell sausages. Jokes aside, I m a big fan of a well made burger. I mean I have very high standards when it comes to paying crap loads of money for what Macca sell you for a buck. Well I paid $18 for the old smokey which is back by popular demand according to the waitress, and $6 for a side of shoestrings. The waitress also made sure that I was aware that they cook the beef pattie to medium rare like how a good burger should be cooked. And I should inform them that I don't know how to eat a burger by asking them to cook it to a different doneness. First thing I checked when I got the burger was the underside of the bun. And I was not disappointed, I saw the mandatory grill lines. It was lightly toasted and warm. Take note Better Burger! It should be nice and warm not cold! The cheese was dripping down the side of the burger, I was hungry I had to take a bite. And the juices oozed out of the burger, it was so juicy. I used two of their extra large napkins to wipe down my face and my hand during the eating process. The bacon and the BBQ sauce was just a sensory overload, the smokiness of it especially. I was for sure in some sort of trance at the table, much like a Homer Simpson moment. My mind is still blanked out right now, trying so hard to find big words to describe the taste of the burger. All I can manage to write right now is that all of you guys reading this should go and try their burgers yourself. It is that good! Chips are just on par with every good chip joints, I didn't get to try the potatoes skin and the broccoli. I suppose a repeat visit is required now. One little side note, the beef pattie in my burger was more of medium than medium rare. It was still juicy though, so it did not make any difference.

    Thank you Yelp! Was in Auckland with some friends and popped open the Yelp app to see what's good and stumbled across Burger Burger. Besides the fact that it's in Ponsonby Central...this place feels like a hole in the wall and also kind of like a Kiwi version of Chur Burger. Expect a queue, as we had to wait an hour. We were starving and ordered a side each, from their standard fries, to their Kumara fries, and cheese covered cauliflower. We also ordered their beef burger and fish burger. Their Kumara fries (sweet potato) are some of the best I've ever had. Seriously. Their standard fries were pretty good too, as was the cheesy cauliflower. I got the burger with bacon of course, and it was unexpectedly delicious. So was the fish burger, which is panko crusted and was like a Macca's filet-o-fish on steroids. Beef burger is better, but the fish burger is close behind. Burger Burger indeed.

    Although this place was very busy at Saturday lunch, they've got a good system set up. Because we couldn't get a table immediately, we are told to go fill in some time and they'll txt us when a table is free. We were txt before 20 minutes was up and we set about ordering my food. I enjoyed the beef burger with cheese and pickle - simple but tasty. Not excessively huge but filling all the same. People near me ordered the bunnuce - a burger sans bun served in lettuce. With a side of broccoli, I was getting order envy. I vowed to return and I will be trying the above. This place lives up to the hype.

    Burger Burger. The newest and hip eatery in Ponsonby Central. Follows are very simple menu, with your standard protein options. You have the option of a bun or Bunnuce (bun made from lettuce). I'm not sure how I feel about this. On one hand I like the healthy option but... its a burger.. burgers aren't suppose to be healthy. If you want a bunnuce, then maybe the question is, "should I be at a place that serves burgers and chips? " Ive placed Burger Burger as a quick bite due to the space being pretty small and its quick service. The decor is funky and fresh with a bustling open kitchen. Its all quite crammed inside, with high tables and chairs made for 2 people. There's seating along the kitchen bar and a few larger sharing tables. The burgers are def tasty. We ordered the Chicken and Pork Burgers both with pineapple. What I really like about Burger Burger is that all the patties aren't patties. The pork burger uses pulled pork and the chicken burger uses chicken thigh. Kumara Chips were yum and I think $10 for a burger is reasonable for the size and flavour. The only downside was the pulled pork burger was quite wet and messy to eat. This may have been hindered by the pineapple but ultimately it could have been avoided if they can find a way to lessen the sauce from the slaw or the meat.

    Finally we tried this burger burger place after hearing so many feedbacks! This small burger place is tuck in ponsonby central, very busy Friday night , we manage to secure 2 bar table seats which is cool as we can the whole burger assemble process! We ordered a beef burger, a chicken burger in bunnuce and truffle potato skin. The meats are very fresh and well seasoned. Beef patties are cook perfectly (medium rare), and tasty chicken thighs.

    Chicken Burger, and they usually have LRC/Whittakers Chocolate Milk too!

    Honestly the best burgers I've ever had. You'll probably find a half hour wait but it's well worth it. Head down to Bedford's Liquor and Soda at the other end of the lane for a delicious cocktail. Different to the likes of Velvet or Fergburger, they perfect each meat, pairing it with the best ingredients. The small menu offers a Beef, Chicken, Pork, Lamb, Fish, Veggie, and Special option that changes weekly. My favorites are the Chicken and the Beef. Something to look out for is the beef comes medium rare unless you request otherwise. The potato skins can be hit and miss, but regular fries are always good and the broccoli is surprisingly good with slivered almonds and garlic.

    We got beef, chicken, pork and lamb burgers. Potato skins and kumara chips. Food everywhere !!!

    Pretty good actually. Sunday night with a short wait (15mins) for a party of 5. We sat outside with the heaters and blanket. Still comfortably warm. We ordered 6 burgers (3 beef, 2 chickens and a pork. They ran out of fish burger..) with a side of potato skins and kumara chips. Yep we were hungry hahaha and fully under estimated how much food there would be. By the end of the night we all had food babies and waddled away happily. For drinks we had a ginger beer, two tap beers, rum rickety and a chocolate milkshakes. Mmmm that milkshake was the best!! About $25 per person so pretty pricey for a burger dinner, but for Ponsonby central that's normal haha

    A burger is a burger is a burger just couldn't be more wrong in my mind. Especially when you're a vegetarian. What ingredients did they experiment with this time? Falafel? Kumara? Beans? Tofu? Tempeh? Soy? ...and so forth. The options are endlessssss. For Burger Burger's vegetarian option (sadly they only have one), they went with a mixture of chickpeas, parsley, coriander, rocket, feta, beetroot, tomato jam & cumin yogurt. Niiiice. The burger was good. Unique. But it didn't tick all the boxes for me. The parsely-ness seemed to overpower both the taste and consistency of the burger. The addition of beetroot helped balance the flavor and offset the dryness but...when my beetroot slice ran out, so did the moisture. The shoestring fries were tasty, but not really the 'shoestring' shape I'd expect from such a description (i.e they were just slightly thinner fries). Extra points for decent ketchup though (that was also freeeee of charge!). We did takeaway, but this place was jam-packed. I noticed that the tables inside seemed to be veryyyy crammed together so I'd recommend snagging an outdoor table to, you know, breathe ;) Didn't try a shake but they looked prettttty awesome.

    The must try charred broccoli!!

    These burgers are the real deal. Amazing value for money with fantastic quality ingredients mean you're getting great bang for your buck! This place is always busy, so either go in off-peak times or plan to put your name on the wait list then have a stroll down Ponsonby Road or a drink at one of the many nearby bars. The menu is simple but offers a good selection, the drinks are also varied...I hear the Lewis Road Creamery Milkshakes are out of this world but I've always been too full to try one! The sides to accompany your burger are delicious. The potato skins with truffle oil are on point and a generous serving, so you can definitely share them. The charred broccoli is so delicious (see my photo!) and gives veges a good name. It's a small place, packed to the brim with people but the awesome staff make you feel at ease and are super onto it to make sure you get looked after quickly.

    Beef Burger + Cheese: NZ$14.00
    Paul V.

    I'll admit, it's exceptionally rare that I find a burger outside of the States that even compares to what's available in most major US cities, but Burger Burger dishes up a burger that's very close. Star 1: How were the service and atmosphere? It's difficult for the atmosphere at Burger Burger to be anything but good when you're in the hot new Ponsonby Market area, but the staff and open style kitchen at BB keep things friendly and efficient. Even on what was a holiday Wednesday, the place was good and packed right at the opening bell. Star Granted. Star 2: How were the portions relative to the cost? In a city where I quickly realized that NZ$15.00 was a minimum of sorts for a high quality meal, I was truly stunned to find that my Beef Burger only came to NZ$12.00, which as then NZ$14.00 once I added cheese. While the burger wasn't huge, it was of good portion with a good burger to patty ratio. In all, I found better value at Burger Burger than essentially anywhere else in Auckland. Star Granted. Stars 3 and 4: How was the food? The Beef Burger at Burger Burger was, as I mentioned, very much on par with what I'm used to in the States. A buttery and toasted bun came together nicely with what was a pretty significant and flavorful patty, and while the whole thing was a tad bit too salty, I equally appreciated the mayo and mustard combination. There was no lettuce, which was a tad bit odd, but all in all I thoroughly enjoyed the burger. Single Star Granted. Star 5: Would you eat here every day if you could? Burger Burger is, as I understand it, the best burger in Auckland, and I always feel like burgers - so yes. Star Granted.

    This is the fish burger in a lettuce wrap.

    Yet another burger joint in Auckland's crowded burger market. This is in.a great spot at Ponsonby Central and you can dine in or take out. I really like that you can order without the bun and have as a lettuce wrap. I also like that the menu is not huge - just lamb, beef, fish, vegetables, pork, etc. I don't like the $2 charge for pickles (this is a rip off) and a whopping $18 for the pulled pork burger is way too steep ( the other burgers ate $12).

    The burnt broccoli with almonds. Healthy tastes so good!
    Stasj T.

    Headed here for a quick dinner after consuming quite a bit of cider. Place was PACKED! Luckily, the host took our orders as take-away but allowed us to sit once there was a table available. My friend went with the traditional beef burger whilst I went with the Special Special Texas Chick (free-range chicken, coleslaw, ranch and avocado) along with their critically acclaimed burnt broccoli with almonds. Broccoli was spot on! It's filling my void for brusselsprouts as they are out of season. The chicken burger was good, the slaw adding a nice touch. Why have it as a side when it could be on the burger? It's all going to the same place and they don't fight with each other. Efficiency! I will have to return for the actual beef burger, as my friend was savoring every bite of it and commenting how good it was. A proper Burger Burger burger.

    Yep, real good. Lots of ice cream goodness in this thick shake.

    The best steak I ever had was at a little cafe in Brussels. It was a Steak, salad and frites deal for €5. I wasn't even asked how I wanted it cooked, it was served rare and was as I said, the best I'd ever had. The next best was served up at a restaurant in Dahab. From a beast slaughtered and prepared a day before I'd ordered it and had it served up. Again, this was served rare. I went to Burger Burger specifically to dine on their...burger. Funny that. The decor is pretty cool. Very confined for space, but I liked it. I was greeted as I entered and promptly handed a menu by a waitress who was more than competent and proficient at meeting and greeting patrons. The service was genuinely friendly and hospitable. I ordered the chocolate thickshake and a beef burger. I ordered cheese and an egg as extra. The waitress advised me that the beef patties are served medium rare and asked if I okay with that. I told her I was. The thickshake that came out promptly and was sooooo Dee-lish, it took me all of my willpower not to order another! The burger came out and I was excited to finally be able to demolish it. In my first bite, the yolk from the egg exploded and most of it ran down the side of my burger and onto my burger dish. It was raw yolk, not partly cooked but raw. I turned the burger to try and retain the remainder of the yolk. As I did this, some of the egg white also fell from my burger. Part of the egg white was gelatinous and white in colour, indicating it had been heated, but there was also translucent raw egg white. This egg must have only been on a hot grill for a few seconds. I figured that didn't matter, the burger was tasty enough and kept eating. As I continued eating, there was a slightly bitter, slightly tart taste as though something pickled or vinegary was overpowering the taste of this burger. I couldn't even taste the cheese in this burger, the vinegar was so overpowering. I took another bite and as I looked at my beef patty I noticed that it was bleeding!!! The patty had been seared on both sides, but the middle was red raw and blood was leaking. WTF? I thought it was supposed to be medium rare? Not raw. I was in a hurry to get over the Auckland Harbour Bridge to Orewa and then to another place in Henderson so I gobbled the burger regardless. I should have taken a photo and raised my concerns but I'll head back another day and place another order. I'll be having stern words with the chef if they serve me two minute slop again. Each year, I print out the NZ Heralds list of eating establishments that have an e-grade food rating. This means that serious deficiencies had been found by food inspectors and the businesses are shut down until their deficiencies are rectified. I eat at these places to keep my cast iron stomach prepared for the worst and didn't have any issues with raw meat and raw egg served up as what could only be called slop. What a disappointment. Burger Burger, you'll have to lift your game if you're gonna charge as much as you do for your burgers. I don't mind paying $9 dollars for your thickshakes, because they are divine. But with the name that you have, your establishment should be on fleek with its burgers!

    My friends and I were in town visiting and had seen The White Lady on YouTube and social media with…read morepeople regarding it as an institution. The White Lady is a food truck serving a variety of burgers and sandwiches, as well as chips. There is no seating, so they offer take away only. I was a little uncomfortable, as there was a group of homeless people sitting and laying down right next to the food truck. Because of this, I just wanted to grab my food and go. The food took about 15 mins to finish and we were out of there. They did have tomato sauce, as well as garlic aoli sauce, free to take as much as you want. I ordered the White Lady, which is one of their signature burgers. It had a beef patties, Scotch steak, Colby cheese, bacon, fried egg, grilled pineapple, fried onions, lettuce, and tomato. It sounded like a ton of ingredients, but I figured I had to try their namesake burger. I had taken my food back to my hotel, which was only about a 10-15 minute walk back. Understandably, the burger was a bit soggy. That wasn't the worst part though. My main gripe with this burger though, was the Scotch steak. It was probably my fault for not entirely knowing what a Scotch steak was. The steak was chewy and I was NOT able to bite it off each time I took a bite of the burger. After a couple bites struggling to separate the steak from the rest of the burger, I ended up just taking the steak out and eating it with a fork and knife. I cannot understand why you would put something on a burger if it cannot be bitten off solely with your teeth. It goes against the point of having something handheld. On top of that, the steak was very bland. The burger patties itself was okay, nothing amazing. I come from the United States, the home of fatty foods and the best burgers, so maybe I just have high standards. For me, this place was a one and done just to see what the hype was about.

Most of the food stands didn't open up for another 20mins, so we wandered around reading all of the menus and deciding what we wanted. The last stand we came across was Burg'z.

I already had my eye on this place and free dinner sounded like something we couldn't say no to, so we accepted. We purchased some awesome fries and beers to accompany our meals. Let me say that this review has nothing to do with the fact that our burgers were free. They were fantastic! Large, flavorful, fresh and filling! We shared as we both like chicken and beef and were beyond satisfied. The owner (I think) and his coworker were very sweet and we had the best experience. I wish we had room for the list of amazing milkshakes on their menu, but unfortunately we did not. We thanked them with a gracious tip and went on our way. I'm not sure who was taking photos but my guess is the NZ Urbanlist or something similar on Instagram. Can't wait to see them as I am sure they represent the taste well!
