Delish!!

Found in a mall food court on floor 2. Absolutely delish and worth stopping by. A little pricey but fine…

Very good!

Ate here twice. Once on site and once ordering and both were great. We tried beef and chicken style burgers and hey were both great. The slaw is seriously good. Maybe my only gripe would be both times the chips are over salty for us but that feels minor. Overall very good.

Pros: Slaw, Lots or choice, Burgers are yummy

Cons: Chips a little too salty

Better than Queenstown's Fergeburger 😜

I upgraded the Classic Cheese Burger with vegan Bacon and Jalapenos, it was sooo good! Actually I don't like the atmosphere of these shopping-mall-foodcourts but I forgot immediately everything around me with the first bite. Dessert was the Peanut Butter Milkshake even though I was already full but I just had to grab it...because you don't come across something like that very often 😋

Unbelievably great fast-food!

I did not think I would be writing a 5-star review for foodcourt burgers, but Wise Boys Burgers lives up to its great reputation!

I had the Wise Boy on a gluten-free bun, and it was surprisingly substantial—more filling than most fast-food-style burgers I’ve had, and definitely not as greasy or “trashy” as some back home. The sauce was delicious, the vegetables were fresh, the GF bun held together really well (which is rare), and the whole thing had a satisfying bite.

The patty wasn’t what I expected based on the website photos—it leaned more toward a classic veggie patty rather than a soy-based smash burger—but it worked.

The pièce de résistance, though, was the banoffee milkshake. Wow. I fully bow down to New Zealand’s love of banana-toffee everything—so fresh, so indulgent, and absolutely delicious.

I also love the motto—make burgers, not war—with a fun, feel-good take on plant-based fast food.

Overall, a fun, tasty spot that delivers a more elevated take on vegan fast food.

Pros: Big Menu, Great GF bun, Banoffee milkshake

Cons: Expensive

Excellent burgers

Such a great little find! The burgers are delicious and not at all greasy or heavy. Service is super quick. I had the buffalo chicken and it was fantastic. The food court is on the third floor.

Vegan burgers

Super exciting to find a fully vegan burger stand! I got the cheese burger with bacon, I really liked the "meat" burger but wouldn't recommend the bacon, it wasn't worth 2 extra dollars in my opinion. But I'd definitely come back to try more options when I can.

We loved this totally vegan restaurant. Excellent sandwiches, fries and dips. We had a tofu sandwich and a chicken sandwich which looked and tasted great!

Yummy burgers

This branch is in a food court but we eventually found it. You order on a screen and can customise your order. I ordered the Dirty Boy with a vegan patty, cheese, onion rings, “bacon” and some tater tots. My partner ordered the smoky Jack (jackfruit). We enjoyed both of our burgers. They were a good size and tasty.

Yummy

A surprisingly big menu for a small food court set up. We loved our picks but would’ve happily worked our way through the whole menu!

Easy vegan

No worries ordering, everything vegan!
Tried both original smash and 'chicken' sandwiches, both good, chicken edged out ahead for me.
The brownie cookie also yummo!

Pros: Darn good comfort food

Excellent Burgers!

We had a Wise Boy burger and Classic Chicken with fries and drinks. Both meals were very tasty, not too messy, and a nice introduction to vegan in Auckland. We particularly liked the house-made burger. One of the best!

A bit sloppy, but tasty

The burgers are not amazing, but taste pretty good. A bit too much sauce, especially heavy on the ketchup, so everything kind of falls apart on the first bite. Worth the visit though!

Pros: Good texture

Cons: Too much sauce/ketchup

So many fun options

Our food was good. Being located in a food court with many other things around was also nice.
