Real Burger

Nashville Chicken

Nashville meets Aotearoa with Real Burger’s 24-hour brined Nashville-style chicken thigh. Double-coated with buttermilk and fried until crisp, along with all the crunchy slaw, house-made pickles and secret sauce made with local ingredients. Served in their signature potato bun, made with real potatoes and baked fresh in-house daily. Comes in two spice levels (hot or not), with the option to turn up the burger heat, Nashville-style.

Real Burger

Just landed in Ponsonby, Real Burger is built around the philosophy of using simple ingredients sourced locally and built from scratch. From grinding their own beef for patties, to baking their signature potato buns in-house daily. Along with their 24 hour in-house pickle made with local cucumbers, they also make their own sauces with local ingredients, with no shortcuts or compromises.
