How can you not love it with a name like that? We stopped by for a late lunch while on a day trip…read moreto the glow worm caves from Auckland. Our tour guide definitely knows food. There is a vast variety of drinks and baked goods as well as sandwiches available. Personally I was unable to resist a square cronut... I ended up sharing it with folks because it was so huge and filling. I also enjoyed a spinach feta Danish with a side salad. Everything was fresh and delicious. The vinaigrette on the salad was spectacular. The ambiance in here is so welcoming and cute. There is indoor as well as outdoor seating. Stop by if you get a chance and don't forget to order a dessert too.

Cute little cafe. Stopped here for breakfast and lunch. Both times the food was excellent…read more Breakfast, we did the eggs and waffle. Chai latte was pretty standard, but good. Lunch we did the nachos all was super delicious. The meat pie and sausage roll were just okay. Service was good and pretty quick. They also have a cute little shopping section with great locally made pieces.

When in Taupo, New Zealand... be sure to grab a meal at BurgerFuel!…read more While strolling at shops looking for souvenirs, it was time to grab a bite to eat. Wanting a view of the lake, we stopped into BurgerFuel. They had music playing from inside, outdoor tables and row seating facing the lake. I ordered from the Breakie menu and grabbed the eggs Benedict with salmon (pictured). My friend had ordered nachos with bbq pulled pork and it looked amazing (not pictured). Along with a pint of Lakeman Pale Ale to wash everything down for the afternoon. Great meal, nice location... stop in when your on the north island and by New Zealand's largest lake.

I am not much of a burger fan. I usually find the patty too dry, the bread too spongy, and the…read morewhole idea of a burger kind of underwhelming. But when we're traveling, we're trying focus less on fancy meals and more on the sightseeing. Strolling along Lake Taupo, however, Burger Fuel drew me in for some reason. Perhaps it was the bustle in the place, perhaps the tantalizing aromas emanating from the kitchen, that made my mouth water. This, combined with the promise of fresh, organic ingredients, as well as an interesting flavor palate, caused us to stand in line at this popular New Zealand burger chain. We were not disappointed. It's a pretty small place, wedged in between other, larger restaurants, with a limited number of tables, inside and outside overlooking the lake and a lovely sunset. It was a first for us to have beetroot on a burger -Kiwi Burger-, but the flavor complements the burger meat amazingly. My burger also came with bacon and mango! What a burst of flavor!! Yeah!! It's time to bring Burger Fuel to Los Angeles, people!

We had to park about 3 blocks away and walk. This is located close to the lake, and had some beautiful views. If it were cold and rainy, we would've opted to sit on their patio. The service as quick and the food was delicious! I had a pie and my husband, I cannot remember what he had but he loved it. If we weren't driving, we would've had some drinks. A nice selection on the menu of food and drinks and everything was delicious. I would definitely go back!

It was plenty of yumminess for both of us. Lots of tender chicken served in a bed of greens, red onion, tomatoes and crunchy noodles. The chili sauce as generously poured on top.

I got the mushroom on toast which was yummy. It could have used some citrus or spice to cut the creaminess but still good.

Visiting the area and Yelp has very few current reviews. Had dinner here last nite. The drinks were…read moregood, but an odd NZ thing seems to be that if a drink isn't on the menu, they can't make it? Drink requested was a cosmopolitan. They have all the ingredients, but sorry no. Anyway, food, apps and meals were all very good and as described but came out sporadically, with last meal (party of 4) a full 15 mins after the rest. A good value for the cost. Would go back if we were here longer.

DONT DO IT. Like me, you have read the previous reviews, there all bad. But like me, your hoping…read morebecause the reviews are 3+ yrs old, it may have improved. It hasn't, don't do it. The meals are all prepared, plated out the back in a chiller, they sear the meat and send it out. The mashed potatoes ect have a crust shell on them. We had; Shrimp cocktail; should've called it a sauce cocktail, there was more sauce than anything else. Pork belly; it was all fat and skin. I get this meal everywhere all over the world and this was the worst and most expensive. Steak. Why ask how you would like it cooked if your just going to do it rare. Kids go Mac cheese, Cheerios and bbq bburger, they had no complaints, but again, all pre-prepared meals warmed up. Kids Cocktails were the only reason the got any stars. This meal cost almost $200 for 3 little kids and two adults. For $36 steaks and pork belly they were crap. Everywhere is better than this. I hate giving bad reviews but I just don't want anyone else to have a bad experience here.
