Reviews of Burger Liquor
D.
Wow. Just wow. Burgers were stunning. Milkshakes were even better. The service was superb. The vibe was so cool. The whole experience was just ruthless (in a good way). Definitely coming back and would highly recommend. Top class.
N.
Cannot believe I didn't know this was in Wellington. Food was so good, plus decent cocktail menu. Good for families, couples, singles, friends - nice easy going vibe. We will be back soon!
S.
I don't come here enough.
The burger experience can be a good one with the right elements.
Drop the fast food speed eating and get into an experiential taste culture.
Lots of different flavors are served and it can be over done. Choosing a smaller burger for me is key. Why? Because I'm a messy eater.
If you can bite into it while holding the whole burger that's a burger experience. If you have to use a knife and fork your kinda missing out on the whole burger vibe.
The bar has a good range of spirits to add to your meal and I'm sure I'll be back for an evening burger and bourbon.
G.
So many great burger and drinks options, always go here when visiting Welly. The Bernie burger is a firm favourite! Highly recommended
N.
The burgers were great. Got a standard and a double smokey, both were cooked well and tasted great. We also had curly fries and gravy wavy fries which were well season, crispy and a good serving. The only issue we had was the sauces, both the bbq and gravy from the fries had too much vinegar and over powered all flavour. Would still recommend the restaurant.
A.
Highly recommend! The food was everything I wanted it to be - I'm sure I'm not the first to say their 'fat fries' are amongst the best fries in New Zealand! Staff were welcoming and accommodating, with a great vibe in the restaurant. I had a pulled lamb burger with crispy chickpeas, washed down with a one of their good choice of tap beers. A great place to go!
S.
Great food place. These guys make the best burgers I have ever tried. I'm allergic to eggs and gluten and these guys triple checked every thing. Great food amazing service and the time between when I ordered and when it came out was minimal 😄 highly recommend.
P.
Awesome burgers, really well priced, left super full after a burger each and a couple sides. and 2 4 1 boozie slushies really sweetens the deal! Will be back next time we're in town
N.
Good service, awesome food, drink was outstanding too.
S.
Amazing food. Amazing shakes. Amazing service. Been here a lot and will keep coming! Always hard to choose between their salad bowls or gluten free buns because they are both superb. Can’t recommend enough for the burger and milkshake lover.
R.
Initial thoughts: Modern take on a 1950s American burger joint, very well presented and feels clean compared to other current burger joints.
The menu is a obnoxious, its very hard to read, too much going on.
Didn't enjoy the vegan salted Caramel rum dirty shake, they went a bit over board with the cinnamon on this one.
The burger was very nice, there was a lot going on in it but it the sun dried tomato mixed into the patty really stood out and complimented the flavors inside.
The chips were actually some of the best I've had, very rich in flavor and not too oily.
Overall it was a good experience, friendly service team, the kitchen crew seemed to all have smiles on there face and the food was well crafted. The atmosphere was excellent also, as the night progressed the lights dimmed which was also nice as it wasn't too bright.
Would I recommend this to vegans? Yes, I do.
Great work Burger Liquor.
m.
Good vegan options and no extra charge to swap to vegan option which is almost unheard of. The broccoli is AMAZING, I had no idea broccoli could taste so good. The vegan patty is alright, it's a little too walnutty tasting imo. However, I have had much worse at patties 100% vegan places in wellington.
I'm excited to return here and try the other burgers!
V.
Went to Burger Liquor as a friend suggested to me and it was delicious. The Punjabi Poutine chips were packed with filling and had a super crunchy outer skin. I tried the Smokey BBQ Burger which had delicious, soft but crunchy buttermilk onion strings - but not too much flavour in regards to the whole burger. Bun was nicely toasted. It was packed up with the onion strings but lacked in all-round flavor. The size of the burger was on the smaller side too. We also tried the Green Latifa slushy and The Doggfather cocktail. Both drinks were superb and added well to the meals. The place was very clean when we went in (as soon as it opened 11:30am on Sunday, so you would expect it to be) and had one or two other groups so if you want to avoid the crowd go in the morning. Staff super friendly and quick with orders. Overall, Burger Liquor gets a 4-star for some delicious meals and tasty drinks.
D.
Best burger I have found in New Zealand! The beef is very tender and not greasy, and the buns are soft and moist. I had a burger with bbq sauce that was really delicious as well. I can almost guarantee that any burger on their menu will be delicious. It wasn’t busy when we went and our food arrived in about 15 minutes. It is a little expensive, but worth it in my opinion. I wish Auckland had this restaurant.
C.
Good beer selection. Great burgers and fries. So good I went two nights in a row.
A.
Amazing food, priced pretty well. The chocolate milkshake is incredible 10/10 recommend. Cheese fries and really good too as well as their burgers. The maple fried chicken weren’t the best, however, wouldn’t recommend.
J.
Burgers are really great. We tried one standard and one with pork and both of them are delicious. Also the hard shakes are amazing! It's really a good choice to dine here on Sunday night, especially when we found there were not so many open restaurants nearby.
A.
Always a great time with delicious food. The staff are friendly and make sure they look after you. If you're reading this review and haven't had the pleasure of dining here, I highly recommend their Punjabi Poutine. Absolute favourite!
T.
There's something special about a simple burger done right. And these guys know their burgers! Cool atmosphere, American diner style, great simple burgers for a reasonable price, and plenty of beer & liquor options - including hard shakes!
A.
I rate the burgers from this joint as the best you can get in Wellington.
Pick up the menu, randomly select a burger and I can assure you it will be a great burger.
Love yourself, get a burger here!
J.
Great burger and, lots of choices, they even make their own sauces. If you go between 2 and 5pm they have a meal deal with burger fries and drinks too. The only let down is that the fries while well cooked and seasoned are still frozen fries, I think a place like this can do better, hand cut fries are always better. Still recommend the place though.
J.
We have to come for a 2nd 3rd and 4th visit to make sure we cover all the fantastic food on offer.
Had the standard burger with guacamole and chips and a salted caramel milkshake. I want more definitely.
J.
Very upbeat, gourmet casual burger joint with solidly delicious food. I ordered the Smokey with some Smoked Paprika Makikihi Thick Cuts and both came in a good amount of time - both were very tasty too. Getting down to the picky things, the only things stopping me from giving a 5-star rating are the small things, such as the bun being a little dry and the chips having a little too much seasoning. You could argue these are exactly that; picky things.
Overall this place has a fantastic atmosphere, great food and a good range of Vegetarian options too. Would totally come back again!
J.
Good burgers and boozey shakes. Jalapeno poppers were great too. I got the Cheese fries with firecracker hot sauce and it was not what I had hoped for.
M.
Great burger! The beef was high quality & cooked perfectly, the hashbrown was crispy and yummy, and the sauces were tasty. The chips were a bit overcooked, and the Vinegar Aioli wasn't for me, however it was creative and different.
D.
Staff were super friendly and helpful with our seating arrangements as we had a 1 year old dinning with us. Burger and chips were yummy, their cocktail slushies were sooo good. Thanks team 😁💗
L.
Tremendous burgers, cheap beer, vegan options available for every burger at no extra cost. That's about as good as it gets.
J.
Great burger shop friendly staff and the burgers and chips are really good and value for money
10/10 would come here again 👌
M.
Lovely food with especially great burgers, good range of drinks with friendly faces of staff. Very cozy establishment with a nice bar
M.
The burgers and chips were good, the hard shakes were good but could’ve been colder, the strawberry guava margarita was wayyy too small for $15
H.
O.M.G. This place absolutely demolished my stomach in the best way possible. I had the smokey and boy was it smokey 😫😫😫 went down a treat. Had the Punjabi poutine on the side. Amazing also. Finished off the night by sharing a passion fruit sundae and the dough-nuggets. Absolutely beautiful. 100% recommend this place, though I also suggest booking a table because we had to wait around 20 minutes to be seated. Well worth the wait though.
A.
Absolutely fantastic. The food was great the service was great the atmosphere was great. Very accommodating. Couldnt fault this place at all. Highly recommend.
c.
The place is good, and the burger is nice. I don't recommend the cheese fries, there too salty.
e.
Nice place! Went there at about 3:35 on a Monday and took 10 minutes for the food to come out. The fries are incredible and the chicken burgers were great. Service is fast and staff are very pleasant!
K.
Did a takeaway. Good range of burgers as well as drinks of all kinds- milkshakes, hard shakes, wines, beers and spirits. A local institution. Must try.
E.
Quite cozy seating area out back and yummy vegan burgers/chips. Ambient music was also pretty good.
S.
Good food, great customer service
A.
Burgers have gone way downhill since 2 years ago. Fries were great milkshake was average.
O.
Very good hamburgers!
Had 'The Smokey' which had great extras, tasted amazing.
The service was really good, the food arrived fast and the place looked clean. It's also nice to drink a beer there..
Recommended!
J.
Went to try their special burger during “Wellington On A Plate” month, which was a cornflake fried chicken with slaw and pickle, and it was.. ok... The chicken was moist with a good balance of saltiness and sweet, however it lacked a bit of kick, so I added some of their mango chilli sauce available at the table and it was a lot better.. Overall, I think they use quality ingredients and is tasty, just wish it packed more flavours.
F.
Honestly one of the best Burger joints in NZ, and the Salted Caramel Rum Thickshake is actually amazing.
F.
Great food and drinks, lots of vegan options. Loved the Smoky BBQ burger, was a little small however
C.
Was travelling to Wellington and was craving for some burgers. Did a quick goolgle search and stumbled across Burger Liquor. Overall the ambience was quite nice (felt like I was back in my college days!). The service was nice as well, but it felt like it took a while to place my order (they werent too busy, but getting their attention was quite tough). The waitress was very nice and did a great job in convincing me to try their 'burger of the day' (btw she reminded me of Luna from Harry Potter!). The burger itself tasted pretty good (my burger was based on a Japanese style burger - cant rmb the name). The fries were good as well, but a bit salty. The portion I would say is a bit small, but for the price of $30ish bucks all in (plus the beer), it was fair. Would recommend others to try with their friends (the atmosphere was quite loud and happening!).
A.
Good selection of burgers, drinks, and sides.
The milkshakes are great with alcohol infused ones available.
I mean this as a compliment: it's nothing too fancy, just decent food done well, with some interesting options peppered in to try.
The kind of place that's perfectly suited to a work lunch with your team.
S.
Had a great lunch here getting the Smokey burger and curly fries. I love that they have good craft beer, will likely be back soon.
A.
I tried normal standard burger with extra avacado. I heard about this shop so many time, but its not that much tasty than reputation. My friend tried smoky burger, that would be better than my one.
D.
One of the good burger places in central Wellington, juicy patties and the ingredients give you good flavours. Try out different fries or chips they say with add ons
M.
Highly recommend!! Amazing food. We had the Punjabi Poutine loved it. Definitely check this place out if you are in Wellington.
K.
Great service and food, had the Bernie Mac and Punjabi Poutine they were both amazing.
C.
Really vood place to eat quality burgers. Staff also very nice and friendly.. A must try..
T.
Great burgers and fries, friendly staff.
h.
Great atmosphere, very yummy burgers. Look a little small at first glance, but they are super filling. will be going back
r.
The best burgers 🍔 in Wellington
C.
Great atmosphere, VERY busy!! Had the WOAP burger - was delicious. Highly recommended. Would be nice if they also did coffee, but can't win 'em all.
E.
Best burgers in Wellington by far my go to spot keep up the good work team!
R.
Double Smokey is filthy good 😎 highly recommend the fries. Special burgers are hit or miss but still one of the best burger joints in town. It is actually gourmet unlike some of the other burgers around town. Also... Be ready for big queues.
L.
Place is comfortable and nice. Service is good as well. Burger and fries are perfect.
M.
Great food, great music. Enjoyed the friendly staff and atmosphere! Would definitely go again.
P.
Best milkshake in town - the vanilla cake shake. Got the Smokey BBQ burger and it was great too.
L.
Amazing burgers and spuds!! Really nice staff. I strongly recommend.
A.
Consistently great food, drinks and service!
J.
Yum yum vegan treats galore this is a great place to meet a variety of needs with good food and drinks. Vegan Amy swinehouse is off the charts
J.
Although had to wait ages for a table it was 100% worth it! It was welly on a plate after all! One of the best burgers I have ever had!
D.
Great service and absolutely tasty af burgers
J.
Solid 4/5, all quite tasty ! Good selection and some unique flavors for burgers and cocktails.
Punjabi poutine was a little disappointing- not much sauce or chicken, cocktails a little weak, but overall worth a visit !
K.
My sista took me to Burger Liquor and i love it! Burgers are yummy and chips are great and good service. A real treat. My one suggestion would be onion rings!!! Thanks for doing such a great job - happy to recommend to anyone....yum!
R.
I really enjoyed the salt vinegar burger and vinegar salt fries. Also ordered the vinegar salt vinegar sauce. Didn't order a drink which in hindsight was a mistake. But what I'm most salty about is the price. 18 bucks for a burger and the chips cost extra? Absolutely savage. However, their collection of odd bric a brac and cook books is quite charming. 3/5, there are better places to go if you're not planning on having beersies too.
S.
Delicious food and drink.. the best chips ever!
C.
Good food, needs to improve the GF bun option, I suggest the Venerdi Sourdough ones, better size and texture. Staff very friendly and helpful
F.
Amazing burger, pretty packed as well. Seems like they are doing very well. Good, but small, selection of craft beers on tap.
T.
Can't actually explain how blown away I was, the burger I had was friggin amazing (smokey beef one) and my partner got a chicken one which she thought was absolutely incredible, the staff were amazing and the atmosphere was second to none, I will definitely be returning :)
R.
Excellent burger, good price, quick service!
A.
Great service and best Burger I have ever had ! Chips were fantastic 😋
G.
AMAZING! absolutely delicious and great value. the size is a nice balance between being a decent filling meal but not overly large (like some burgers where you struggle to eat it all in one sitting) I had the smokey BBQ one and was 100% impressed
S.
Awesome staff, super helpful. The food is to die for.
T.
Great food and awesome cheesy fries
H.
Iconic burger joint that also has a menu of cocktails to enjoy...with your burgers.
M.
Love this place! Great customer service. The guy who served us was awesome and gave great advice on the menu and info about the place. Great music and atmosphere. Best burgers, portion size seems small but it’s actually very filling as the flavours are full on so you get what you pay for. Definitely coming back to try more burgers and the shakes next time 🤤
P.
Was a good petty but the bread an fries was in my opinien not so good.
C.
Really cool place! Great atmosphere, even better staff & food! The Bar tender was awesome; I was over hearing conversations and his knowledge, service and character was super impressive- something I haven’t seen in a while! The burgers were really tasty. A really good experience, highly recommend stopping in for a burger in Wellington!
A.
Easily some of the best burgers I've had in Wellington.
The best thing about Burger Liquor is they are incredibly adaptable when it comes to your order, my girlfriend and I often order two burgers and get them to cut these in two for us. They also allow us to have half a portion of cheese fried and half a portion of curry poutine (having a whole portion of both would be madness!).
Milkshakes are gorgeous and the poutine and cheese fries are out of this world.
...you'll be absolutely stuffed afterwards.
R.
We had the Smokey and Snitchz burgers with the punjabi poutine. Great feed. The milkshake was amazing but went down quick so sharing isn't recommended.
P.
The double smokey is one of the best burger I've ever tasted!
T.
Burgers were great, really tasty patties. Beers were alright but boring out of the ordinary. Will definitely go back.
A.
Great vibe. Good service. Great vegetarian option the vegetarian patty is delicious.
L.
Not as good as expected.. Music was a way too loud and boring (rap music). Couldn't have a conversation. Service was nice and quick but waited for the actual burger for half an hour. The actual burger looks awesome but doesn't taste as good. Mine was a bit too cold, tasted too much like vinegar and after a few minutes the bun was completely soaked from the tomato.. The curly fries were kind of a joke, as 90% of them were like normal fries. The BBQ sauce didn't tasted like BBQ sauce. Don't trust the hype. :/
R.
It's great to see that Burger Liquor is carrying the mantle for a long line of iconic restaurants that have been at 129 Willis Street over the years including Casablanca which had its home there some 30 years ago . . . then Armadillo followed by the infamous Crazy Horse steak restaurant run by the Bresolin brothers for 6 years until 2014. After taking the office to BL for a staff lunch I have to say I was very impressed - very fast service, food tasty plus, great range of food and drinks to cater for a variety of tastes and quite reasonably priced. Cocktails a great hit with the team to start the lunch off. Staff all friendly, efficient and laid back. Apart from the tables at the front, BL have a u shaped table/booth at the back for larger groups which we used and thought was great. Now a regular on our list of local restaurants we dine at each week.
P.
Long time listener, first time caller.
Burgers are awesome. Worth it.
M.
yep, straight a's from me mate. cool interieur, nice staff, great burgers (nice vegan options available!), good abundant sides. just go!
D.
Decent burger, Punjabi poutine is great. $41 ish for 2 burgers and side dish.
D.
Awesome menu with great food and friendly staff. & v vegan friendly. Thank you!
K.
Called in for a late bite to eat after Church... Place was really busy (good sign) ... staff promptly made some space to seat us ... order was taken and in no time at all our Burgers were served. They were fantastic, really fresh and very tasty. At first we didn’t think they were very big, but by the time we had finished, we were very satisfied!! Really great atmosphere as well... highly recommend if you like quality burgers. Well priced too - 3 x Burgers, plate of fries & 1 x beer all for $50. Will be back again.
S.
Wow, one place to go to! Great burgers, lovely service. Easy menu covers many eater options. Salad instead of bun, is one.
L.
I have eaten here many times in the last couple of years and it has always been a great dining experience. The standard menu has some great burgers and the weekly specials provide great variety if you are a regular. Bottomless filter coffee and chips cooked to perfectly for my preference makes this one of my favorite lunch locations.
G.
Burp. Just amazing! Burgers from Heaven.
J.
Great burgers friendly staff
m.
The only good place left that does jalapeno poppers. Decent burgers and a nice house bourbon makers mark with coke. Top tier
L.
Great food. We walked in 6pmish last Su day evening. The team were super friendly, attentive and most of all accommodating to make me a cocktail that was Keto Friendly. Had a burger bowl without the rice. Was a shame they'd run out of brocolli for the starters, but I was so full I would've regretted it! So so amazing!!
B.
Great experience. Amazing food. Attentive friendly staff. Reasonably priced and nice atmosphere
E.
Service was very attentive, however my jackfruit burger was bland and tasteless.
M.
Undeniably very tasty food and they are fast at getting the food out to you. I love that they play old school 90s hiphop in there too, that's really cool. My only criticism would be that they lay napkins under some of the dishes and they can end you in your food esp the loaded fries. other wise we love the place. 4 star
A.
had the burger deal which is a standard burger + some fries + a lager for $15. I took it with the veggie patty (you can swap everything to make your burger vegetarian or vegan with no extra). Was also super quiet at this time of the day (2.30-3pm) and they were playing some cool music maybe a bit too loud. Great and quick service
D.
Just a totally solid all round menu. Burgers, and chips, shakes, even grilled broccoli. The food was all super hot, fresh and delicious. The smoothie was rich, cold and chocolatey. Good overall atmosphere, service friendly and proactive.
H.
Great service. Fresh burgers made to order. Vegan options available as well. Price range $12-$20 for burgers. Other menus include tacos and chips. You can also add extra to your burger like avocado. Staffs are very friendly and the atmosphere is very clean.
R.
Splendid restaurant where you can eat great tasty burgers! And drink fine wine...
L.
Absolutely stunning burgers, and the drinks are something else too! Would recommend to everyone. I had the Smokey burger on the recommendation of my friend and a alcohol fueled chocolate milkshake. The service was quick and responsive. The burger had a great balance of crispy/crunch & juicy/saucy from the onion rings and then the dripping sauces and meat. My stomach just rumbled as I typed that last sentence. The vibe was great, good lighting choices and a great aesthetic.
J.
Fast service and hefty burgers. Burger pictured is a little pricy at around 18 dollars.
L.
Absolutely amazing food at very reasonable prices - either vegan or meat options are both superb. Service here is great too. They’ve been doing a really good job adapting to life under L3, and have gone above and beyond during this time. Nice work guys!
K.
The food was absolutely awesome! The ambiance is stunning, and their milkshakes are top shelf. This is one place that we love for their burgers and curly fries. Even their jalapeño poppers are awesome! They get it all right. All of it! Well done Burger Liquor!
A.
Great burgers and excellent hard milkshakes, with all meats able to be substituted with well thought out vegan versions.
Very casual vibe, and food is reasonably priced considering portion sizes and location.
Staff were responsive and knowledgeable when I enquired about allergies.
J.
Burger Liquor is still a local fave of mine however I hadn't been there for a few months. Was disappointed that they changed their buns at some point, the new ones definitely not as good as the old ones but overall was a good experience and the vibes are still awesome. Always a good experience with staff there too they are friendly and efficient. I didn't have one this time around but I will also always recommend the salted caramel milkshake with and without the Rum! Soo delicious.
D.
Always nice to try different burger joints. I would personally rate Burger Liquor as one of the top. Freshly made juicy meat burgers tailored to satisfy your hunger.
S.
In my opinion, they offer the city’s best reliable burger. Nothing overall fancy, just perfectly cooked with great buns and interesting variations and sides. The liquor menu is great too, especially if you’re into Old Fashioneds or other boozy cocktails.
It’s not often advertised, but their weekday lunch special is fantastic! $15 for a burger and beer from 2 PM, so if you’ve got a flexible lunch schedule get on it!
A word of warning: the shakes are immense and not for the faint of heart. Consider enlisting a friend or other trusted adult to help you.
M.
Double Smokey burger was amazing! Milkshake was good but a bit small for me.
This is not a cheap place.
M.
Food was delicious. Love that Coeliac friendly items were marked on the menu!
A.
Absolutely beautiful burger and beer!
A.
Always a great place to eat. Staff is epic. Beer selection fantastic. Rad burgers. Highly recommend.
S.
Best burgers in Wellington. The Hard Shakes are pretty amazing as well
S.
Just happened to pass by this place on the street and decided from one glance at the menu that this was what we wanted. Was not disappointed. Absolutely amazing experience, food was spectacular, great drinks range, beers on tap were superb, and the wait staff were super friendly and helpful. There was a small wait for a table and for the food but what do you expect from somewhere this obviously popular? Not a native to welly but will definitely come back here if we’re here again and will be recommending to all my friends. Fab work guys!
K.
The broccoli starter is just amazing and it has to have one of the best fish burgers I've ever tasted. Have only been a few times and it's already one of my favorite restaurants - would happily trudge from the train station (from hutt valley) to eat here. The service was very good also
A.
Off. The. Hook. The burgers are mint. Their shakes are great and the rum selection is a nice surprise. Always busy but you never have to wait long to be seated or get your food. Staff are always really friendly. Recommend the curly fries and the poutine!!
S.
Dined for lunch with a local who was keen to try out this new burger bar/restaurant. Burgers are not always my thing, however we were both really happy with the experience. I had a Smokey burger and we shared the retro crinkle cut fries. Nice hospitality with a few interesting quirks. Recommend for sure!
A.
The food and drinks were amazing and absolutely loved the vibe! Is definitely a little on the pricey side but totally worth the experience. Only negative was I felt like they were trying to rush us a bit as we were finishing but other then that great customer service.
B.
Outstanding burgers! A great spot for any burger enthusiast.
M.
Coming from Christchurch places like Burger Liquor are few and far between throughout my experiences. However. This is by far the absolute best burger I’ve ever had! The pricing when compared to other ‘upscale’ burger joints is well in the same bracket.
This place is incredibly good! I loved the ambience and aesthetic of Burger Liquor, from the American Diner like seating to the top notch tunes playing throughout. The RATM / Wu Tang gig poster on the wall, is that for sale?
Fantastic atmosphere, fantastic service and of course fantastic food! The burger was outstanding, the buttermilk popcorn chicken was incredible and the Oreo and Baileys ‘hard shake’ was also, incredible! I will be coming back each and every time I ever find myself in Wellington.
Atmosphere: 5/5
Menu: 4/5 (limited options; this wasn’t a problem for me however)
Food: 5/5
Service: 5/5
Price: 5/5
A.
Quality tasting burgers and really authentic burger bar vibe
C.
Food is yummy - burgers / curly fries on point. Hard Shakes with liquor are delicious, they would be hard to beat in Wellington. I did find the background music a bit too loud, requiring yelling at your other diners across the table. Save the none-speaking volume levels to the dance clubs!
T.
Ery hard to suprise me with burgers but this place wowed out of me. So delicious burger and fries that i visited second time the next day! For all good one of a kind burger lovers—- this is MUST place. They alcohol drinks are amazing as well!
D.
Burger Liquor is an atmospheric and relaxing burger joint, perfect for a night out with your partner or friends.
Nice lighting, good prices, comfortable seating and the customer service is great.
The burgers and fries are delicious, and they have a good variety of creative cocktail drinks.
Highly recommended.
A.
The staff are friendly and most importantly the burgers are good. If you don't mind pickles then I highly recommend the Berny Mac. I may be wrong but I don't think I can recall too often when the kitchen experiments with say, a special burger of the week outside the normal menu.
Top tip: If you're like me and you like the bbq sauce you can buy it in a bottle from them.
There is a good selection of drinking options from spirits, craft beer (as Wellington eateries should) and non alcoholic.
The venue is pleasant enough with my only real issue being the sometimes noisy din when it is well patroned. To be expected with the hard floors etc.
I've been a fair few times and it's usually always a full house around meal times. I usually don't book ahead and I've been lucky thus far but it may pay to book in advance.

What a meal, poppers were awesome, shakes are amazing, and the Welly OAP burger was BRILLIANT! Will be back!
I.
We ordered the smokey burger which had a great flavour but wasn't hot enough and the fish burger which I highly recommend. The strawberry milkshake was awesome as well 😋
The music was way too loud though, we had to yell to hear each other.
D.
Got my food to go. The paprika fats were great - very crunchy. It could have done with more paprika though the burger was really good too. I'd definitely go again and perhaps next time, I'll eat in so I can an enjoy the atmosphere too.
S.
Great service. Always enjoy their beer matches with the burgers if I ask. The curry fries are the best 😊
T.
I went to the burger liquor on a Tuesday half-day fair for lunch. I ordered the burguer that comes with onion rings and it was sensational.
Fast service and very good food. You always have water at your disposal and it's okay if you do not want to order any drinks.
Highly Recommend!
G.
Awesome Cocktails and great burgers with really awesome table service A++
M.
So good to have these cats back to their natural habitat, I missed them when they moved out for eq strengthening.
Get amongst the boilermaker, hard shakes, punjabi poutine and massive satisfying crunchy and finger-lickingly saucy burgers... If you know, you know, and if you don't, well; get amongst it
S.
This place is great. Awesome range of burgers, options and sides and the specials are always varied and worth checking out. Good drinks selection, friendly, fast service and really good value given the quality of the fare. Highly recommended.
M.
Fantastic. From the moment we walked in the door with the kids to when we waddled out again. Burgers were awesome , hard shakes were even better than i had hoped ,service from Alice was FANTASTIC.Atmosphere was great, busy but we never felt rushed or crowded.
I will be back ASAP !!
Thanks Burger Liquor.

Burger Liquor is a regular venue on our Friday lunch sojourns. The burgers are good. Not huge, but definitely tasty. Occasionally the brioche bun can seem a little dry, but the simple combinations of flavours and sauces still make it a tasty treat. Having smaller burgers also means you can enjoys from the sides (jalapeno poppers are good!) and not come away too stuffed.
From the drinks menu, I enjoy the salted caramel shake.
Can be noisy at peak times, but service is prompt, friendly and efficient
D.
The Best God Damn Burger I Ever Had!
It gets busy during peak times so there can be a wait, but that can be expected obviously. But the beer choices and the burgers cannot be faulted. Not one bit. Highly recommended, two thumbs up, come get it!
D.
Great burger restaurant. The Double Smokey is amazing, has just the right amount of Smokey flavour. Some places over do it. The buns and patties are top class. If it's your first time, I'd suggest the Bernie Mac. Especially if you're a burger afficionado and what to get a sense of the basic flavours. They also do boiler makers! Good selection of bourbons for those who partake.
A.
This was a religious experience. Ok, maybe not quite but the double smokey blew my mind. Shakes were also delish although not big enough! Curly fries trump the fat fries and the servings are large.
All in all, I'd definitely recommend this joint. Staff very pleasant also.
S.
We love it here, really cool place with lots of cool drinks and burger options. Lots of vegan and veggie options however it's only fault is a slightly confusing to follow menu for first timers looking for a meat free option. Definitely recommend.
P.
True artist of the Burger. The summer slaw salad was excellent but the burgers were awesome. They made a mistake delivering my burger the first time around (asked for no mayo and it had mayo) but they promptly corrected it and was able to eat at almost the same time as everyone.
S.
Beef patty fried brown on outside, still pink and very juicy inside. Cooked with lots of care and love. Served with deliciously pickled cucumber adding needed acidity to balance the rich, almost earthy, New Zealand beef. Bake their own bread (fairly sure), that went really well with the burger. The burger itself was beautifully assembled and marked with a pick for extra stability. All in all, it's clear these people are dedicated to the fine craft of burger making, which made me very happy. Staff was friendly and calm, no annoying yelling hipster greetings, etc.
W.
Definitely one of the better burger places in Wellington, and their chips are great. But there's nothing really extra special about the place. You won't regret going here.
T.
This place is awesome, literally all you need for a good evening with friends. Burgers, fires and liquor. this places offers so much including old fashions and boiler makers. The atmosphere is always awesome and staff are very accommodating. Would highly recommend.
K.
First time in Burger Liquor and not only was the food DELICIOUS but our waitress (Denise I think her name is - Irish Girl) was so nice and friendly, she gave us some great recommendations and made us feel so welcome. Will definitely be back!!!
M.
All burgers also come as a veggie option, love it!
D.
My second favorite burger place in the city. Indoor seating, burgers, beer, and if you're feeling funky, cocktails and booze. Curly fries are always awesome, and their specials are often actually pretty special!
J.
Awesome experience food was delicious and the death by chocolate milkshake and the jaffa milkshake were to die for!!!!!
O.
The double smokey burger was pretty good nothing amazing, majestic was underwhelming.. very busy and loud but great service
A.
Amazing burgers!! Great place!! We coming directly from south island and obviously Queenstown. Ferburger. Really famous, but to much quantity and less quality. In this place you can really enjoy the QUALITY of the food. Sauce is amazing! Cooking time really good, beers and cocktails was nice. Ferburger or Burger Liquor? Burger Liquor 100 times!!! 🤙🏽
N.
Firstly, I've got to say... I really don't understand the hype and local fuss made about this place. Like some other reviewers I found the food here very average at best. As burgers are their speciality, I would have expected better than a rather thin slice of burger meat sandwiched between optional ingredients that are seperately priced as extras. The burger was ok but nothing within the realms of expectation as a burger specialist. The hard shakes are supposed to contain ice-cream and be super thick. In reality what I got what was milky mix with a bit of flavour, with no detection of ice-cream mixed in whatsoever, with cream dripping down the sides of the long glass and actually making a mess on the table. In fairness the waitresses (mostly girls) provides the highlight with their super friendly and attentive service. But then when I went to pay $47(!!!) for a simple burger, fries, milkshake and drink only to then be informed I would be charged an extra 2% for using a credit card - that made my mind up for it to be the first and last time I would go there.
J.
Delicious, quick burgers that deserve a look in every time. Ideal for vegetarians, gluten free, sugar free or dairy free if necessary. Excellent choice of rums, worth at least one of your nights
B.
Amazing burgers, plus other great options like tacos. We turned up for a very early dinner, from the time we ordered to eating wouldn't have been more than 15 minutes. Service was very friendly.
e.
Great burgers and tacos. Good prices, especially if you get the afternoon special. I was impressed that every burger is available in vegan Pattie or jackfruit option at no extra cost. Well impressed :)
P.
They do great burgers and great curly fries. I like it way too much and have to force myself not to eat there too much ;-) There's a great vibe with cool sound. Always leaving happy.
C.
Burgers are always amazing and love the punjab poutine! Good affordable cocktails and desserts. Place is always busy but lighting is quite dark but sometimes if you're wanting quiet dinner maybe not come here as they often have a dj playing music.
D.
The burger was amazing. I but pricey if I'm being honest. The rest wasn't great. The three tacos is where too pricey, and, it was a quarter full!! We had to ask for more filling. The guacamole was 9 dollars... it was a handful of nachos with almost two tablespoons of guac. I know avocado in nz right now is at a premium... but it doesn't mean you can shortchange the patron. My friend was too kind, I on the other hand would not have hesitated to send it back. So if you are after a burger and some liquor, its great. Anything else, nope.
K.
Great place for dinner and a drink. As the name suggests the menu leans towards burvers and the drinks towards the top shelf. The burgers are well made and very tasty. Options are limited but that's a good thing as you won't be stuck trying to decide. The liquor selection is decent and caters well to run and bourbon drinkers. Gluten free options are very limited but they have taken the time to consider which are coeliac friendly.
J.
Went there for dinner. Cheese fries were delicious and very filling. Burgers were amazing as usual.
B.
Best burgers in Wellington by a considerable margin! Service is fast, food comes out quickly, and prices are very reasonable. Tables are often small so be prepared to get cosy with the members of your group. Bookings essential for larger groups as space is often at a premium as it can get quite busy!
A.
Despite that it can get very busy (especially during WOAP) the wait for a table was max 10 min. Staff are engaging and helpful, plus they have a couple of cuties. Burgers are huge and delicious. Not "standard" burgers by any means. Even the burgers that follow the same flavour profile of a classic, such as a beef/bacon/bbq style, will have premium. ingredients and home made sauces with their own twist to make it unique and delicious. Kudos to whoever designed the menu. Good range of drinks from some cheap specials, great craft selections, to some more intersting cocktails. I had the WOAP snowcone cocktail and loved it; beware though, they are strong! I've been going to burger liquor for at least 4 years now and I think it stands out as a highlight of casual wellington cuisine. The sort of place good for a laid back lunch, a birthday dinner, or a goos feed on a night out.
J.
went here for dinner 29th July 2020, absolutely delicious! Tasty, fresh, hot and great service.
Drinks were on point! Only 4 stars because we thought it was overpriced.
A.
Everything about this place is awesome. The burgers are amazing, tacos are superb, chips are done perfectly.
It would be hard to go wrong with a visit to Burger Liquor. Would definitely recommend to all.
J.
Their burgers a pretty good. I also like the funky decor inside.
R.
I'm sure many Americans have eaten here, but as one myself, I can definitely say that they make a great burger. Seriously, it may be one of best burgers I have ever had (at least in my personal top three,) and I've eaten a lot of burgers back home all over the US.
New Zealand obviously takes a lot of pride in their beef, and Burger Liquor only uses New Zealand beef (like many other places here.)
The service was incredible and though this is not a fast food place, they do get your food out to you *very* quickly.
The decor is kitschy and fun. The menu has witty and pun-filled items like the "Mariah Curry" burger. They play great music...a mix of 1990's and 2000's pop, dance, and lighter hip-hop, with some local New Zealand artists that I had to Google so I could listen to more of later.
As their name suggests, they also have a full bar and they have a lot of very creative milkshakes and sundaes (optionally) incorporating their full bar with a separate menu for mixed drinks with a great deal of inventiveness.
For our food, we had a Bernie Mac (their version of a Big Mac but much better) and the Smokey (with BBQ sauce, but not standard bottled American style corn syrup based sauce. Think homemade and more like a smokey and slightly sweet aioli. Very good.) We paired it with the Punjabi Poutine, which is french fries (the hand-cut style) with Indian Tikka Masala (butter sauce) and cheese on top. Surprisingly good combination!
Though we only had one day in Wellington, we plan on eating there again before we leave.
In short, just go there. You'll have a fun time and a great meal.
R.
Great burgers, good size and very tasty. Fries are awesome as well. Had takeaway and service was quick and friendly. Would definitely go again.
H.
Potentially the best burger I've ever had.
Bloody fantastic job team.
T.
The food here was great, and excellent vegeterian and vegan options. Took a star off because multiple times I had to find staff to take our orders, but they were friendly and the kitchen staff is clearly on point. Added our pin to the visitor map too! Would absolutely visit again, and hope for a little faster service.
J.
Very good food, especially for that price. One of the few places I ordered a burger and fries and actually left full. I will definetly be coming back.
V.
Food wasn't that great but fries and coffee were good.
A.
Very good food with lots of customisation options. I also recommend their daily bourbon at a very good price.
N.
Big group - would love if they had a seperate dining area cause it was quite cramped crowded and incredibly loud. Everyone enjoyed the food and the time for food was amazing! The staff were kind and supportive so certainly would attened again- hopefully when they expand to a bigger venue!
F.
I really like the selection of fries, lots of great options to have with a reasonably priced drink. Good burgers too. I think the frozen margarita is pretty disappointing, but the house bourbon is good
N.
What is not to love about burgers and chips. The vegetarian options are tasty as.
N.
Absolutely delicious burgers with great service to boot. I have found my regular hangout from now on. Well done team.
Food Recommendation: Bernie Mac & Lux Deluxe
Enjoy
E.
It's really good. It would be great if they went the extra step to be Celiac friendly. More gluten free options than your normal burger place. .
P.
Great burgers, super tasty, bit pricey but great for a night out. Service a little bit slow but was super busy night......😊👍👍
C.
Burgers and tacos pretty tasty. Schnitz is a great burger, and pulled pork taco good mix of flavours. Decently cooked and salted fries too. Will happily come back for more.
J.
Best burger I've ever had, fantastic customer service, awesome atmosphere, extremely accomodating!
R.
Great service! My favourite place in Wellington for a hungover lunch. Excellent place to get burgers that are just that bit more special. They also do exciting flavour combinations, the punjab poutine was delightful!
A.
Great for groups with varied dietary requirements eg vegan vegetarian keto gluten free etc. Delicious range of burgers sides cocktails and desserts. Milkshakes are a must. Great for large groups which can be difficult for a burger and shake type of joint.
H.
Absolutely delicious burger (double smokey) fresh, crisp but at the same time gooey and nice red wine in the sauce too. All in all a great experience and would go back again anytime.
D.
This place is amazing. Second time here was a better experience. First time I ate here the place was packed and loud. This time it was quieter than before and less crowded. Food was amazing. Got the double standard and have no regrets.
G.
Really nice burgers, possibly even the best in Wellington. Quick service even during the lunch rush.
A.
Delicious. Some of the best burgers around
J.
A fantastic night out - fabulous slushies; delicious snacks; jalapeno poppers; The Smokey burgers; tacos!
Wait staff friendly, attentive, & super efficient.
Can't wait to go back!
A.
Now world famous burger joint! Funky interior, great range of delicious burgers, sides and sundaes. Great range of craft beer on tap too. The Smokey and jalapeños Poppers were excellent.
A.
What to say?
Delicious burgers with juicy patties served medium rare as standard
Excellent range of spirits and beers (Boilermakers!)
Cheesy treats with spice aplenty
Great staff with service and banter
A.
The popcorn chicken was quite hot (very good) they have amazing service and lots of staff coming around to help. The flavours and options are great aswell.
R.
So-so, long waiting (and it was not particularly full) for a simple burger. Took the "famous" one, average, pretty oily fries inside, completely unbalanced with the sauce, you almost don't taste the meat. Buns and meat just ok. The atmospher is nice though.
D.
Good food and service. Lots of people walking around without masks. Won't be back until level 1.
M.
Nice staff, love the atmosphere. Great burger selection and they have curly fries and alcoholic milkshakes. Ticks all of my boxes
A.
How can burgers be this good? Burger Liquor serves up next a level burger experifence. Forget those so called "gourmet burger franchises" and get the real thing on Majoribanks Street. I'm sold....
J.
Great finale to Burger Welly. Great friendly service, nice burgers.
M.
Best burgers.....if you are vegetarian then veggie options are fantastic !!
A.
Reasonable burger joint. With some interesting drink option.
In house BL larger is very pleasant.
The burgers are pretty good with strong flavours.
Hard milkshakes are fun.
F.
Exquisite burgers, tasty fries, drinks galore. A very well fleshed out menu with something to please everyone. Highly recommend the Punjab Poutine and the hard shakes.
A.
Had a nice burger with a friend. Lots to choose from. Very impressed with the menu. Want to come back and try more.
K.
Great friendly service. From the moment you enter, u are welcomed with a big fat smile from the ladies and a friendly greeting. First time here. Diffanately a place to come back to, every penny was worth it. Thanks burger Liquor staff, u guys are AMAZING!!!!!!
J.
I've been here a few times now and these guys consistently turn out good food and good service, along with a good selection of shakes and drinks from the bar. The butter chicken fries are definately worth a try!
T.
Meal was fine, a bit expensive for what it was and the bun was not very good quality- far too greasy and bready for a gourmet burg. Maple fried chicken was about $4 too expensive for what it was.
A.
Evreyine must try the hard shakes. they are amazing. The fish burger for some reason did not live upto my expectations but the fries that we had ordered as a side were amazing. This is a nice little hangout with 90s music playing in the background
J.
Really busy but the staff were still really nice and food and drinks were flowing without any delay. The Wellington on a Plate burger this year was really tasty
A.
Wait times to be served were longer than what we would normally have expected, the frozen cocktail for Wellington on a plate came already melted.
Food was average, admittedly this was during a saturday night after they have spent half a night dealing with drunk and belligerent customers so results may vary.
Wait time to pay for our table when leaving was far too long and uncomfortable, it seems there were staff idling around all over the show but perhaps they were not trained to handle the machine?
G.
The burger was really delicious, top 3 burgers in Wellington that I've had. I would waste your money on the specialty chips. Nothing special and quite expensive. Burger and regular fries, you cant go wrong!
D.
Really tasty burgers some of the best around, very friendly staff, well done guys. Went the for work break up and all the guys only had positive things to say.
A.
Burgers are nice enough, but nothing special. Service can be very slow. Sales caramel shake is excellent ... Though diabetes in a glass
J.
One of if not my favourite places in Wellington. Great burgers, fantastic range of drinks, helpful and friendly staff.... Did I mention that the burgers are amazing?!
H.
Awesome burgers, love how they cater to GF options, cocktails arnt bad ether! Quite loud due to the younger crowd.
S.
Absolutely delicious burgers and amazing service! Staff went out of their way to make up for slightly delayed milkshakes, which were also worth the wait!
Y.
Food was perfect except a little bit expensive.
M.
We were served by Caitlin, she was amazing!! Brilliant service!! Great food, awesome drinks, loved our Burger Liquor experience, thank you so much. We will return
T.
We went in with a group of 15 people and they were so quick and happy to serve! Delicious too!
J.
Was disappointed.
Food wasn't anything special.
Was expecting better.
Didn't finish burger even though it was quite small & dipping sauce fries came with was very vinegar strong in flavor.
Not my cup of tea but may suit others.
C.
Shakes were devine burgers were yum
M.
Great burgers, great beers, give em a visit
L.
Nice burgers, was just want I was wanting. Did have to wait a bit for my order to be taken, but they were a bit busy. Food came out quickly though.
J.
Great atmosphere! This place is a cool spot to catch up for a drink or even shoot a hoop inside 😋 The chicken burgers were top shelf but the beef missed the mark for me
M.
It's fine. If bourbon was my jam I would give it a 4 or 5 even. The burgers were good but not great, considering it's in their name
R.
Yummy, good treat for my girlfriend and I. Loved the food, and really appreciated the service from the man that served us. Only advice would be to avoid tables by the door at busy times as it can get a bit crammed.
M.
Everything else in the city was closed for Easter, but Burger Liquor came through! Fun drinks, and really yummy burgers. The atmosphere is fun and funky too.
A.
One of the best burger joints in Wellington hands down. Burgers were carefully prepared and the flavours were amazing. Will definitely be coming back.
D.
Great burgers and good service. Butter chicken poutine was interesting but not really worth it. A little bit pricey but you get what you pay for. Recommended if you like your burgers.
A.
Went there for my Birthday, and it was really great!, decent prices, and good burgers too!
The only thing i was not so impressed with is that the place was soo stuffy! i had to go outside for a bit and come back!
J.
Went here late last night. Really friendly staff.. made me a DELICIOUS bloody mary (a rare find in Wellington). Also - ridiculously good BBQ sauce on the curly fries.
S.
Nice vibes, music and food. Love the Hard Shake options and the lovely vegan milkshake!
S.
Burgers are fantastic but had to wait quite a while for our food and then my drink arrived after we had finished eating and where ready to go.
r.
One of my personal top three burger joints in wellington!
B.
The drinks and atmosphere are cool, very wide selection of rye whiskey. Service was prompt and friendly but the burgers were just a bit underwhelming.
J.
Delicious food; big filling burgers, cooked well and with good ingredients. A bit on the pricier side (think sit down restaurant) but quality of food was so good I wouldn't complain.
C.
Best vegan burgers all of the burgers can be made vegan with vegan cheese vegan patties and vegan bacon ! Fat fries amazing too and vegan aoili delish
S.
Simply the best!!! Cheese fries & Smokey burger = "AMAZING" !!!
V.
We got in before the saturday night rush and the place was already buzzing. I must admit, the burgers were awesome but it was the buns that stood out, while that sounds boring, it just took the burger to that next level. Great value. Will go again
l.
Went there last night 27/6 both of us are vegan. We had the vegan tempeh burger and the chickpea burger, plus vegan crinkle fries with vegan mayo!! It was all totally delicious! Very impressed, will be back!
P.
A great place for a burger and beer or something more 'exotic'. Has an extensive list of Bourbons, Rum, and cocktails. Decor has a very cool vibe to it, and the staff are fantastic.
R.
I love this place. The beer selection is good. The hard shakes kick arse. And the food is so amazing, I always end up ordering too much!
I especially love the jalapeño poppers. Nom!
A.
Good burgers at good prices. Great rums to enjoy your burger with. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable about there drinks.
M.
I have always enjoyed my visit here. WOAP burger and beer combo is great! But try their world famous Smoky and cheese fries with the firecraker sauce. Really cool place.
P.
The burgers can be hit or miss at times. At night, it's very noisy and dark and there can be quite a wait for tables and burgers. Good, but not great.
M.
One of the best burgers in Wellington! Staff is really friendly, and they also have nice craft beer matches.
V.
Never had a bad meal here, love the dietary requirement adjustments so an awesome place to invite all friends to. Highly recommend the vegetarian burger .
S.
Best burgers I have had in Wellington so far tied with Leroys. Butter chicken or firecracker chips are amazing and worth the trip themselves.
C.
Great menu, great burgers, great service.
E.
Awesome burgers and fantastic shakes. Only thing holding back 5 stars is no ability to get plain chips or onion rings/straws as a side.
M.
Very good
A.
I had a burger called the double happy and it was beyond delicious, had the best time, a very warm comfortable place to enjoy great company, and the service was fantastic. I can’t wait to go again
L.
Wonderful relaxed vibe. great specials on beers as well as specialist burgers. good value all round. The service was not the most attentive
C.
Best burger I've ever had. It was very busy and there was a wait but it was well well well worth it! Pulled pork burger was delicious.
L.
The burgers were delicious. The gluten free buns were great .The butter chicken fries were sensational! Highly recommended!
E.
Punjabi Poutine is a MUST! Amazing cocktails, burgers and sides. Great service. But be prepared to wait for a table, it gets pretty busy!
A.
Awesome burger joint, would highly recommend the firecracker fries if you like spicy food, really nicely done with a lot of flavor.
J.
Food is delicious but the servings are small. It is a smallish place, so once it fills up it is very noisy. Service can also be quite slow when it fills up, but serving staff seem to do their best to keep customers happy.
B.
Travelled all through the USA trying burgers and this is up there in my top 5. Simple yet deliciously cooked burgers and an amazing atmosphere to go with it. Hope to return one day!
k.
Great place. Great burgers.
R.
Usually a burger joint just same ol same ol but these where so good best I've had in a longtime
J.
One of my favorite places to eat in Wellington love the daily drink specials and the burgers a tasty as. Decor is nice and you can play basketball outside.
S.
Always great burgers. So yummy, their alcoholic milkshakes also taste brilliant.
S.
Burger Liquor is truth in advertising. The burgers are good, and, except for the chicken and fish burgers, are available in vegetarian versions as well. They make a good vegetarian burger and have tasty cocktails.
J.
Loved the cocktails, and the burgers were divine! Reasonably priced too!
S.
Best burger.
Chicken burger. Chicken crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle. A sauce in the burger delicious.
A.
Good burger (petite, but tasty), nice chips, lovely shake (I had the Lebowski), very pleasant mix of vodka, kahlua and kapiti ice-cream. will definitely go there again.
H.
Can't go much wrong with a burger and this place does a great job with them. Really cool décor and right in town too. Yum yum.
D.
Cannot beat it. Best burgers in Wellington and the poutine fries are ridiculous.
P.
Great burgers and a good selection of beers. I recently took my son (15), who described his burger as "insanely good". High praise from a teenager. ;)
H.
A real must if you like burgers and bourbon! Always delicious
A.
Great burgers and their loaded fries are drool worthy! Plus delicious cocktails!
N.
Amazing burgers. Worth a visit if you're a fan of good quality fastish food.
E.
Burger wasn’t hot and malt shake tasted off cheap choc sauce.
S.
The Big Hitter in Wellington, Don't miss this place they do double sized special orders and I went one more with a triple 'Smokey Robinson' with Bacon Reeeeediculous Jalapeno poppers are a great side and the perfect digestive a Boilermaker.
J.
Nice place. Great service and amazing food.
D.
Very chill atmosphere and good service. I had their WOAP burger which was pretty tasty, although quite different!
S.
Lunch with my lovely friend Jarad - what a great choice a delicious chicken and avocado with spicy sauce - fantastic. Speedy service tasty food - yummy
L.
Awesome service! And great burgers but my favourite was the delicious strawberry milkshake... Definitely the best milkshake in Wellington
L.
Top notch spot 👌 good burgers good loaded fries good cocktails ...this place delivers the goods every time 🙌 👏 #seeyounexttime
H.
The smokey burger was delicious. Portion was smaller than I expected, but not too bad.
E.
Their burgers taste home-made. Staff is always very kind. Now and then I pay burger liquor a visit and never got disappointed.
刘.
My go-to burger place. Lovely staff, great music, love the bathroom sink ^_^ and allows our puppy in. Will always come here
M.
A great place to visit when you're with a group who want a good feed (or if you're even by yourself - maybe, as a treat or something). Try the Boozy milkshakes, you won't regret it.
A.
Best burger I've ever had! Take that ferg! And gluten/egg/dairy free! Burger Liquor Rock and should be 10 Stars. Cheers:-)
P.
Had the special burger and the fries which were pretty mind blowing and the hard shakes are top notch, if you like burgers this is the place to go
B.
Outstanding Burgers tonight for our Bubble of 3. Great takeaway Service and definitely will be back. Bryan
W.
Excellent Burger if you want to get rid of regular Maccas - staff is a bit lost and taken ages to bring the drinks to the table
C.
The food is nice, but there's not enough staff soft the busy times. They could have a more varied selection. There's quite a wait between ordering and receiving.
S.
Good atmosphere, confusing menu. Tasty food with good service. I had a vegie piggy salad. The cocktails were delish.
M.
Great burgers, fantastic chips/fries/potatoes/pototoes, good beer. Great staff. Was perfect respite for a post-Te Papa day visit.
T.
Awesome burgers, a lot of interesting menu items with vegetarian options. Great drinks menu

Really yummy burger and fat fries, friendly staff and value for money. I'll be coming back next time I'm in Wellington 😋
M.
Outstanding as usual. My regular in Wellington. Smokey Burger FTW
A.
Really good -- excellent services, great menu choice 👍

Good food, service was responsive. 5 stars if the seating was more comfortable. Overall vibe was worthwhile.
C.
Fantastic burgers, great drinks, and fantastic service. Plus great music. Punjabi chips were amazing
R.
It was the best burger I have had in my life. I am a fat guy so I have eaten a lot of food before.
A.
Meal selection is fantastic, burgers are even better. Burger and beer selection is excellent, The Smokey is magic!
M.
Lovely Burgers and fabulous Rum deals on Sunday nights!
H.
Great place, food was fantastic and atmosphere was awesome. Heaps of great cocktails on the menu that I'll be checking out next time too
I.
A total triumph. Food to write home about, the finest staff, and a proper selection of beers and whiskeys. Standout volume in the eclectic library is Cowboy Cocktails by Grady Spears.
C.
Amazing food! We'd eat here once a week if we live in Wellington. If you're visiting, it is definitely worth a try.
A.
Nice burger, friendly service, all up I'm quite happy with the experience. Music could be less loud.
H.
Great burgers, great drink selection, service was excellent. Had a great time there!
C.
Delicious. Offer gluten free buns, that actually taste good, and have a great changing selection of burger accompanying cocktails too!
D.
My favourite spot in Wellington. Lots of choice of burgers, chips and beer. Friendly staff. Can be busy so get in early!
J.
I ordered curly fries and chicken burger. It was really good and wasn't dry. Fast service as well.
o.
Burger was good, nice boozy shakes. Don't get the chicken fillets as a side, bit disappointing.
C.
Awesome food, and service! Even had vegan, dairy free, and gluten free options. Will definitely be going back.
M.
Interesting and lovely burger. Just prefer real plates🙊
d.
Laid back spot for a good burger and a good beer. The menu is cheeky and the grub is tasty. I hope to be back soon!
j.
Nice venue, great food, fair prices. Couldn’t knock the place &
Glad I came 👌
C.

A little pricey, but very good burgers and alcoholic milkshakes. Also, the Punjabi Fries are incredible.
