Great burger and services
Great burgers. We had the Holey one and the Golden Phoenix. The Holey one was delicious (maybe just a bit too sweet for my taste with the onion jam) and both burgers travelled well - the fried chicken in the Golden Phoenix stayed nice and crispy even after a 20 minute drive home and no soggy buns. Great chunky fries too but I would have liked more aioli.
Usually I'm not a big fan of burger but love this !!!
The bun is light and soft with a decent scent of butter, I can just eat the bun without having anything extra.after all 15 dollars for a burger like this is quite pricey.
Best burgers we’ve had in ages! We got the Golden Phoenix & Hot Chick chicken burgers on Uber Eats - divine! Fresh, light non-stodgy buns. Beautiful fresh slaw and the chicken was melt on your mouth. Good chips too. Five star burger!!
Love this place. Have loved all of the burgers I’ve tried but always end up going back to a classic chosen bun. Reasonably priced for the quality and portion size. Great friendly service! (Wish they’d bring back their mozzarella sticks)
Impressed. Had the five star man and it was banging. Buns were soft and fluffy, beef patty’s cooked to perfection with a slight pinkness that I love. The onion rings inside still held their snap despite dripping in tangy bbq sauce and two cheeses. A bit pricy at $17 but considering it filled me up and I wasn’t digging into fries as a gap filler, it was beyond my expectation, was worth it.
I was not expecting these burgers to be much to have about, but boy, I got proved wrong! These burgers were delish and so satisfying! The portion for the sweet potato fries was surprisingly massive, my bf and I didn't think we would be able to finish all three. I will definitely come back again and try the other burgers!

Don't know why this doesn't have a better rating?! Everything you want from a good old burger joint. We had the golden Phoenix, holey one and the popcorn chicken. All tasted amazing! Burgers had great flavours and the fried chicken were bigger bits than expecting, crunchy and not oily. So glad we've found this place will be back a lot 😁
Hands down the best burgers in Auckland. Service is always friendly and quick. The burgers are always delicious and portions are always generous. Lucky to have such a great burger joint in the neighbourhood.
Best burgers , awesome service and fast definitely recommend , the five star man is definitely a favorite and popcorn chicken , and wash it down with there milkshake
Small burger place, you can select salad bowl instead of bread if you want low carb. Food are good, reasonable price. I like their fish bite, too
Amazing burgers here! I tried both the Guac Star and the Big Smoke and both were really interesting and tasty takes on burgers. You could tell the food was made there and not just frozen patties. Though I didn't eat it, there's a really nice relaxed vibe here. I'll definitely be back to try some of their other burgers!
Had the standard burger and my daughter had the kids meal. Both were fantastic! French fries were awesome too. Definately recommended if in the area.
My friend who has celiac disease was able to eat here - and not just a side of fries! She really enjoyed her “The 5 Star Man” with onion rings even, and my “Big Smoke” was fantastic.
We both also thoroughly enjoyed our shakes - although, they don’t offer alternatives to dairy milk.
solid burger and fries. had to take my friend here who is coeliac and she loved it too!
A fairly recent opening, it is already quite busy. There is a small dining area which has about 7 tables as well as a bar along the window. When I went it was full most of the time with people waiting for tables.
The menu is fairly simple, a range of different burgers with interesting combinations, as well as sides and drinks. You order at the front and then either wait for a takeaway or sit at a table. They conveniently have the wait times written behind the counter.
We ordered shakes with the burgers along with the onion rings and fried chicken sides. They were all good. Onion rings were nice and crispy as were the chicken. The shakes were delicious and creamy. The burgers were tasty and juicy. A good place to stop for a burger that is slightly different from the norm.
When it comes to burgers in Auckland, it doesn't get any better than The Chosen Bun. Crowd favourites are the 5 Star Man and the Golden Phoenix. Perfect option for Gluten Free and Coeliacs alike.
Very reasonably priced. I love that they have the option of a burger bowl for the low carb foodie - won me over with that option alone! Most places do a bun-less burger that is over in a few bites. These “bowls” are an actual meal. I had The Holy One - very generous and delicious, and the mozzarella sticks are really good. Small space so you’d want to get in quick for a seat. I will def go back! I can’t wait to try another option.

Its not often that I award 5 stars but I believe these guys have earned it.
I've been here a number of times so far and they haven't disappointed yet. Burgers are on the expensive side and you'll wait while they prepare it... BUT IT'S WORTH IT!!
My first visit, I accidentally ordered The Righteous One (portobello mushroom burger W/grilled halloumi, onion rings & red pesto aioli). I'm not a vegetarian by nature but this burger could actually convert me.
Next time you're hungry, run don't walk here. Your stomach will thank you.
This is a great burger joint. Loved the big smoke flavor. Was a bit disappointed that we couldn't dine in after a long drive due to their distancing rules, could have easily and safely accommodated a few tables though.
