RE Burger Porirua City Centre is the Porirua branch of RE Burger, the New Zealand burger outfit that began life as a humble food truck in Dunedin, where the founder set out to bring a slice of London's street food magic to the streets of Dunners. From that original Dunedin restaurant, the crew has grown into a nationwide team of self-described burger fanatics, and the Porirua City Centre store now serves the same handcrafted burgers and loaded fries to locals — grab a takeaway, order delivery, or park up in-store for a relaxed meal.
The kitchen keeps things simple and fresh: ingredients sourced from local suppliers, milk buns made daily, 100% pure beef patties, and quality chicken, all pulled together with a house secret sauce that has been perfected over the years. A nice touch of character comes through in the menu names — burgers like George, King Ed and Queen are a nod to the Dunedin streets that supported the brand from day one.
You'll find the store at Unit 3, 1 Hagley St in central Porirua, open every day from 11:25am, running until just past 10pm Sunday through Thursday and a little later on Friday and Saturday nights. Order ahead online or come in and see why this crew has been riding the burger revolution since the food truck days.
If you're hunting for the best burgers in Porirua, RE Burger Porirua City Centre is the spot that keeps coming up. Found at Unit 3, 1 Hagley St, this store serves handcrafted burgers, loaded fries and a menu the team calls "straight gourmet" — all built on fresh ingredients, chill vibes and food that's "always on point." Whether you park up in-store, grab a takeaway or get it delivered, this is a burger joint that takes its craft seriously without taking itself too seriously.
RE Burger's story starts with a humble food truck in Dunedin, where the founder decided to bring a slice of London's street food magic to the streets of "Dunners." The people got on board — big time. From that original Dunedin restaurant, the brand has grown into an awesome crew of burger fanatics taking its flavours to streets all over New Zealand, with the Porirua City Centre store among the newer outposts.
Despite the expansion, the mission hasn't changed: serving the community the best eats and treats with a side of love. The food truck ethos still runs through everything — epic burgers, banging beats and good vibes only. And there's a lasting nod to the city that started it all: many of the burger names, like George, King Ed and Queen, are Dunedin streets, a tribute to the fans who've been riding with RE Burger since day one.
RE Burger is obsessed with freshness. The team sources the finest ingredients from local suppliers — think daily milk buns, 100% pure beef patties and quality chicken, "the whole shebang." Every burger gets love and attention, and the house secret sauce is a flavour bomb that's been perfected over years. The team's own warning? Sorry, not sorry, about the inevitable face drips.
Burgers are the headline act, but the menu goes further. Loaded fries are a signature side, and the Porirua store runs in-store specials worth keeping an eye on. It's a menu that's straight gourmet but still delivers that satisfying, messy, napkins-required burger joint experience.
The Porirua City Centre store keeps things relaxed. Ingredients are always fresh, the vibes are always chill, and you can enjoy your meal your way — sit in-store, grab a quick takeaway or order delivery to your door. It's the kind of place built for everything from a quick lunch break to a weekend treat-yourself run.
Hours run from 11:25am every day of the week. Monday to Thursday and Sunday, the store serves until 10:10pm; on Friday and Saturday you get an extra half-hour, with service running until 10:40pm — handy for late cravings at the end of the week.
The easiest way to get your fix is ordering online through RE Burger's dedicated Porirua City Centre page, where you can arrange pickup or delivery. If you have allergies or dietary requirements, RE Burger publishes a downloadable allergens PDF on its website so you can check before you order. You can also keep up with menu drops and store news on the brand's Facebook and Instagram pages, @reburgernz.
The store itself sits at Unit 3, 1 Hagley St in Porirua — central enough for a city-centre lunch run or an easy dinner stop.
It's the combination: fresh, locally sourced ingredients, burgers built with genuine care, a secret sauce people talk about, and a laid-back atmosphere that makes every visit easy. From food truck roots to a nationwide crew, RE Burger has stuck to what it does best — and the Porirua City Centre store brings that same flavour and those same vibes to Hagley St. Come taste the difference yourself and see why the team reckons this is the ultimate burger joint.
