Part of the BurgerFuel chain — see all 63 locationsWe're BurgerFuel, a global gourmet burger brand from New Zealand, with stores from Auckland, to Sydney, to Dubai and beyond. Our next stop is the mighty USA! We serve up the freshest, most wholesome, deliciously pure gourmet burgers, in a full throttle, high-energy atmosphere, where fast cars, awesome music and creativity reign supreme.
The menus clearly state that halal food is served. From the management: 'BurgerFuel has ensured that high-quality meat products are strictly Halal certified. This includes our beef patties and grilled free-range chicken. Please note that while the chicken in our fried chicken products (specifically Modifried Thunderbird and Choppers) are Halal, they are crumbed at a premises that is not Halal certified. If you are Halal we’re happy to cook your favourite burger on a separate grill, using clean utensils. Our stores are not Halal in the strictest sense, some products on our menu are not halal certified.'

It felt like a first visit all over again, returning to BurgerFuel in Palmerston North after what can only be described as donkey years. For a Monday morning, the place was reasonably busy, humming with a quiet energy that was met with efficient and prompt service. We sampled both a beef and a chicken burger, and each was genuinely good, delivering on flavour and quality. The interior lived up to the brand's reputation, embracing a funky, slightly rebellious aesthetic of car and graffiti culture. There's no denying the prices sit on the steeper side for a fast food meal, but the tangible difference in the quality of the ingredients and the final product seems to make a fair case for the extra cost. It was a solid reintroduction to a familiar name.
