Reviews of TOO FAT BUNS

C. T.

Best burger I've ever had. No exaggeration. Exactly how you want a burger to taste, but so so fresh! Also the gluten free bun is amazing! You would never know it was gluten free. Just like a real one. Fluffy and delicious. Also the chips actually taste like potato and don't seem.over fried or greasy. Truly amazing.

H. W.

We usually eat at restaurants on the island but wanted something takeout. Ordered two burgers from here and didn't disappoint. Opened the wrapper to find a fat burger that could be in a commercial. Tasted as good as it looked.

A. M.

Amazing burgers. There's often a wait - but this burger joint us Waiheke's resounding answer to Fergs of Queenstown. Totally worth the wait. Highly recommend walking down to the beach with your prize!

C. W.

I came to Waiheke Island today to go to Too Fat Buns. Now you might be wondering, why cross the ocean for a burger? Fair question but this is no ordinary burger. This burger was cooked to perfection at a juicy medium temperature. It was seasoned with just enough salt to dance on your tongue with every bite. The Swiss cheese melted beautifully over the burger like a warm blanket. The sesame seed bun is so delightfully soft and structurally sound to give the burger the right chew texture while also functionally keeping everything together without a mess. If I could afford it, I would move to Waiheke Island for this burger.

J. D.

Amazing burgers. They have got this right - small choice but great quality. Very friendly service also. Perfect all round

R. B.

Genuinely my favourite burger ever. Forget Ferg Burger (which is heavily overrated) - there should be queues for a Too Fat Bun. Hope to see more pop up in Auckland City!

C. K.

This tiny establishment produces really good to-go food! Beef burger patties are done medium, and really tasty, with a good balance of lettuce, cheese and sauce. Even the small burgers were solid meals in themselves. Also tried the spicy chicken burger which was indeed spicy, and also tender and juicy. The hot and spicy wings were also fabulous. Last of all, all of it was really affordable at NZ$12 for a regular burger, and NZ$8 for a small one.

M. G.

Should've checked the reviews, but can't live with a medium/medium-rare burger. Otherwise to be fair, really good burger. Good fries also.

A. W.

Had the Spicy Chicken burger and Choc milkshake; both were delicious and the chicken breast was nice and juicy and really tasty. Will be fantasizing about the burger when I'm back in Auckland!

D. C.

Genuinely one of the best burgers I've ever had. Amazing presentation and amazing taste, absolutely worth the price

K. C.

3 months later and I am still thinking about the burgers from here. No doubt I am taking a trip to Waiheke just to savour their absolutely amazing food.

C. C.

So much yum, and huge portions! Took a while for it to be made but considering they make it fresh. Overall a pretty good burger joint on the island

E. G.

Delicious! Got the fish burger - a really solid, tasty burger with great buns too (real bread, no overly-sweet & soft brioche that’s everywhere these days). Decent sized chippies too 😘👌🏼

M. M.

Smiles everywhere from the staff working there, thanks for your hospitality :) It was nice to sit down, eat and chat on the high chairs after a day at work. The fish burger is amazing and the fish is from the local fish market!

L. J.

Best burgers on Waiheke! Tucked away in a little mall in the middle of Oneroa, it’s easy to miss Too Fat Buns. Seek it out. The burgers are amazing! After returning from a long hilly walk, we were ready for a substantial lunch and Too Fat Burgers didn’t disappoint. Packed full of ingredients, but not greasy, the hardest part is choosing which one. I don’t often go for a vege option, but felt like it today and it was so good. Oh and service was excellent with the friendliest person taking orders. Highly recommended!

W. M.

Awesome burgers, definitely live up to their name. Super good 👌

I have ordered food (burgers, fries and milkshakes) from Too Fat Buns on several occasions and the food and service has always been excellent 5/5.

I. &. G. S.

Best burger ever? We have found this place "accidentally" in october, and was very positively shocked by the burger... Big and very tasty for a good price!

W. B. S.

Consistent quality food always served with a smile. This is the go to Burger joint for Waiheke providing options for all. Grab a burger, go sit on the beach and enjoy. Total gem of a place, highly recommended.

Y. B.

Our favorite place in Waiheke to eat awesome burguers!! Must visit if living or staying in the island! Staff is super lovely and remembers your name after going only once, we were surprised !

Friendly service. Yummy chips and burgers. Very filling. Prices on the high side for a burger, but reflective of Waiheke pricing. Quality was good too. Would go back again.

Not bad burgers. The roll was a little dense and the burger was a tad dry for my taste.

F. R.

Excellent veggie burger, different than usual veggie burger and soooo tasty Too bad they surcharge for public holidays, it ended up pretty expensive

J. W.

Burger Heaven - a great range of burgers that are incredibility Delicious...period. A hidden eatery off the main core of Restaurants & stores. The burgers are created from scratch, combined together with their own luscious sauce, caramelized onions relish, perfect grilled seasoned beef patties, between lightly toasted or grilled brioche buns. Its an experience that you should not deny yourself. I want more...

R. R.

Phone order, really good to speak with and got my large order all correct. Everyone loved the fries. We had Hot Chick’s, Small Beefy Bun’s, Small Chicky Bun’s and they were all outstanding taste and quality.

S. H.

Best burgers we have had in a long time. Fresh, tasty and the perfect combo of flavours. Lovely service. Looking forward to coming back and trying the other burgers. Yummy chips too! Great price.

S. R.

The vegie and vegan burger were delicious. One of very few places open on Waiheke on a freezing Tuesday winter evening. Excellent, fresh, tasty burgers 😊

M. D.

This may have been the best burger I've ever had for an amazing price. Fresh, delicious burgers at amazing prices and Generous chip cups.

L. V.

I love these burgers, pity there not open earlier

C. P.

Great tasting burgers. Both the chicken burgers, and chicken wings are amazing. Lots of flavour and spice. Plenty to fill you up. The service provided is also amazing, the staff are very friendly and understanding. Thanks for the amazing burgers Too Fat Buns team.

O. L. B. (.

Best Value gourmet burgers on the island in my opinion 👌

Great burger for sure, and very lovely people. Prices are just a bit steep though.

T. L.

The burgers here are perfect. Tasty ingredients, perfectly made. Always feel well fed and happy after a feed here. The vibe is awesome and service is quick, just beware of weekends!!! Sometimes there's a long wait due to high demand.

J. B.

Absolutely one of the best burgers I have every had. Definitely representative of the fantastic burgers I was expecting in New Zealand. Very helpful staff. Wife had the Hot Chicky and loved it as well. Would certainly recommend to anyone!

J. H.

So delicious, very fresh and healthy. Super friendly staff and service and so tasty. I’m a vegetarian and it’s hard to find a good vegetarian burger , my partner loved his meat one too. I would highly recommend 2 fat buns. Very enjoyable.

Such nice people. Epic burgers and shakes. Def recommend the wings too!

H. M.

Have had burgers here twice and both times 5/5. Fish burger with salsa verde is inspired! Love the burger buns too. Friendly and quick service. Highly recommend!

S. V.

Delicious. Best chicken burgers. Yummy buns and the Moroccan chicken burger was perfect. Just the right amount of spice. Chips were very good.

D. B.

Such good burgers! Nice balance of flavours, fresh ingredients and really good buns! Would recommend this place to anyone passing through Oneroa! We are hoping they will open in Auckland soon 😉

Ordered the chicken/bacon burger, fish burger and fries. All I can say is these are the BEST burgers I have had in New Zealand! They take their time to make these gorgeous gourmet beauties (15-20 mins) so be patient & it will definitely pay off :-)

D. B.

Great burgers, im sure these guys will be island legends in no time! Maybe they already are? 3 years later and the legends are still going.

Fantastic burgers at reasonable prices. Their chocolate thickshake is a must try also. I was later at a vineyard in the evening with average food at ridiculous prices, and all I could think about was how good my lunch was at this burger joint.

I. B.

Great food, Great tastes, $10 Breakfast burger and coffee was so good..

Fair pricing for the highest quality food and staff you can't find anywhere else in the world. These two manage to hit a home-run with everything they cook here. The soda is fantastic, and the shakes top it all off. Glad I took the trip over to the island, will return in the following years for another round! Hope you guys stick around until the end of time!

The Best gf burger I've ever had. Best fish Burger I've ever paid for. normal sized bun with seeds, and the fish was fresh and tasty. Super Friendly staff and the business is very environmental as a bonus.

J. M.

Best burger ever on Waiheke Island at Oneroa. Easy parking, easy access, great staff and prompt service

C. B.

This was my first visit to Too Fat Buns, I was immediately taken at how clean and crisp everything seemed. I was warmly greeted by who I assume is the owner, the banter was easy flowing. The menu is not massive but I feel it doesn't need to be, the emphasis is on quality. The burger I ate was delicious, the bun was fresh as was the greens inside the burger, as for the pattie, it was very yummy. If you're on Waiheke then you'd be silly to not chow down on one of these burgers.

A. B.

Great service great food. Fast and flavorful burgers chips and sauces.

E. M.

Deliciously fresh burgers! So good 12/10

H. E.

Good sized burgers, nicely done. Kudos on the compostable packaging.

The best burgers on Waiheke! What a great menu to choose from. Extremely fresh produce, and tastes great! We had the Veny and Chicken burgers and we are still talking about them. Take your burgers down to the beach and enjoy.

D. C.

Wife and I are in New Zealand for our honeymoon. Stopped by this little hole in the wall for a bite to eat while on Waiheke Island. Surprised to see a vegetarian and vegan option! These burgers were both delicious and the woman behind the counter was super friendly. Totally worth a visit if you need a bite to eat. Short walk from here to the beach where you can enjoy their food as you hear the waves crash. I recommend to anyone visiting the island!

I went to Too Fat Buns last weekend and it was absolutely delicious! All of the ingredients were fresh and the patty was cooked perfectly. We had amazing service and I would highly recommend going to Too Fat Buns when you are on Waiheke Island.

Well.... when my brother-in-law said we just HAD TO GO to Too Fat Buns, I knew it had to be something special. Well, a Veny Burger and a Mam Bun later, I fully get it! Chris says- “best burger I’ve ever eaten and mine was absolutely delicious too. Thanks for delicious food, spot-on service and great prices!

C. C.

Good quantity and quality for the price, the service was excellent and the wait was reasonable. Would highly recommend, just be willing to spend more than any other burger place.

M. V.

Simply the best beef burger I have EVER had. Fresh well prepared ingredients perfectly put together to give you a culinary treat. Beats 5* restaurant food,you should definitely try it.

J. A.

Seriously good burgers. Everything about them - consistency, quality of ingredients, how well they held together, how juicy they were - was just great. Fries were good, too. Well salted, nicely cooked, and the aioli to dip them in was nicely garlicky.

A. M.

Fish Bun burger is The Best

A. S.

The best Burger and wings I've had ....and I've had Fergburger !!! Keep up the great quality you guys....ill be visiting Waiheke just for your burgers next 😀

Tasty food and friendly service. Can't remember the last time I had a burger this good!

Great burger bar. Lovely owners. The burgers were really delicious and freshly made to order (which means a slight wait). Great place to have lunch or to get food at the end of a wine tasting day!!

H. A.

Awesome tasty burgers and chips really worth the price. The in store seating is a bit small but not too much of an issue for my small group. Really friendly staff as well.

H. P.

Burger was real yum and reasonably priced! But we needed more aioli with our chippies (but they were cooked perfectly)

The vegan burger was delicious, but the place is a little hole in the wall with very limited seating and no view of the ocean. This doesn't matter for takeaway (which I would recommend), but be mindful of this if you want a sit-down meal.

Absolutely incredible. My burger was absolutely packed with delicious ingredients and I asked for my patty to be cooked medium rare and it was perfect. Thank you for the excellent dinner :)

Loved it!

Went here with my girlfriend and had an amazing burger. The wait flew by as we failed to find Wally. Great staff. Great food. Highly recommended

Good food. Good staff. Good & quick service. Ordered 8 meals and they were ready in a decent amount of time and tasted great

Delicious healthy burgers, full of flavour, big portions and for much cheaper than you would normally pay for gourmet burgers. Definitely worth trying if in Waiheke

Tasty burger! Small space, good for takeaways. Delicious food. Good service

The best burgers ever!!!

N. D.

Nice spot tucked away from the main road, perfect for a quick bite. The chicken backey burger was nice but a tiny bit too messy for my ideal sandwich.

J. G.

Awesome burger. I had the vege burger so good. We all had beef burger and chicken burger also very nice. Definately worth a visit a+++++

C. S. (.

Some of the best burgers on Waiheke. Run by awesome people. Best to ring ahead for a pick up because it is very popular.

Top notch nosh. Best burger I've jad since i can't remember when. Food made with love. Friendly service to boot. Highly recommend.

Scrumptious, simple, tasty products. Friendly helpful service. Well worth finding in their hidden nook for a takeaway to the beach or on one of the many scenic benches scattered around.

Had the Surf N Turf burger. So good and so filling.

L. G.

Tiny counter, but it was the best burger I've eaten in a while. The ingredients are fresh and the buns are delicious!

K. C.

Excellent burger. Had the beef and blue cheese. They had a long wait because it was a crazy Saturday on the island.

This is the best burger place I have ever been too! Absolutely incredible.

C. G.

Ferg burger ain't got nothing on these burgers! NZ's new best burgers!

Great burger and friendly service. Really fresh ingredients.

N. D.

This was a great spot just a little bit away from the beach. We got the chicky backey and some hot chips, both were good, solid foods but nothing mind blowing.

Best 🍔... Wait... Best MEAL we ate on the island. It was ssooooo gooood... We know exactly where to go next time we come over to the 🏝... And they accommodated our gluten free needs which was excellent!!! ❤️

Fantastic spot, a regular for us!
