ABOUT US.

In 2020 three mates from Christchurch came together through their obsession of food, and shared boredom in the initial lock down. They all agreed that despite all of the great burger joints around there was no one making a classic LA style smash cheeseburger with premium ingredients – and so the idea was born.

They put their heads together and came up with a simple concept; take the most premium locally sourced ingredients and make the best damn cheeseburger in New Zealand.

Why the name Black Burger? Well if you want to make the best damn cheeseburger you need to start with the best beef and the buck stops with Wagyu, in particular grain-fed Japanese Black. Simple really.

Fast forward three years later and Black Burger has a permanent home at Riverside Market in Christchurch, is majority owned by our incredible wagyu supplier Black Origin and is looking to expand into multiple sites across New Zealand – more Kiwis deserve Black Burger more often!
