Description: Honestly the best restaurant of its kind in the country, ironic considering its run almost exclusively by Kiwis. But they really know their stuff, from the most efficient, polite, and friendly customer service (you order at the counter and they deliver to your table), to the highest quality produce. This is no McDonalds--this looks homemade, tastes homemade, and is cooked to order. They have a huge range of gourmet burgers posted on the walls and listed on the menus, and it's hard to choose which to have each time, although I defer to the chilli burger.
The fries are excellent and huge, and the milk shakes are a meal in themselves (be warned), although you can have still mineral water, soft drinks, or even a well-chosen wine list if you're not in a hurry. There's sometimes a wait when the place is full, but the cafe atmosphere more than makes up for the short wait you may face, and as the photos should make clear, if you think upstarts like Hamburger Union have it all sown up, you're dead wrong. "Run, don't walk" is my advice.
