Gourmet ingredient sourcing in Hamilton

“This was by far one of the BEST BURGERS I've had in years. Just the most juicy, delicious & tasty burger and for about the same price price as a normal crappy burger from a burger chain. Do yourself and your tastebuds a massive favour and make a stop at Phat Burger! Excellent value!”

“A spontaneous stop on the way to Chartwell & my friend & I were glad we did. A cafe that is airy, clean & spacious..nothing over the top fancy, just simple, comfortable & peaceful. We shared: egg sandwiches, sausage roll & apple strudel. Well..the tastiest egg sandwich in a long time, & had to be the best strudel I've ever had..yum & only slightly heated perfectly. My friend enjoyed her coffee & I changed my mind at last moment from coffee to try an iced chocolate..it was delicious with good amount of chocolate..nice chocolate too. I will be back when on next trip from Whangarei to visit family..for sure. O..I also brought a macadamia toffee n chocolate cookie which I ate on travel home that evening! Yum. Lovely staff! Footnote: I wrote the above over 2 years ago..I still pop here every time I'm in Hamilton..their Ginger crunch is the best..but not to eat straight away-let it come to room temperature soo best to takeaway..I suggest. Haven't had macadamia toffee crunch for ages though..I just remembered about this treat after reading the review I first wrote.”

“Love this place! Excellent food, great service and the best mochacinno coffee in Hamilton. We always try to pop in at every available opportunity. Thumbs up all round.”

“Frankton fresh shop always have everything I am looking for in this store , the customer service level does not bother me so much .I can see the hard work that goes into keeping the shop fully supplied with fresh produce which is usually what I’m after for cooking dinner and fruit for kids.That to me is more important, Love the layout of the shop what I’m after is 98% most of the time right there next to the entrance e.g : eggs ,bread ,milk .etc genius. Keep up the hard work”

“I've been to a lot of Hell Pizzas over the North Island, and these guys are my favourite. Friendly service and brilliant pizzas. I often order plant based creator pizzas, and I can be very particular about my toppings e.g. double portions of mushrooms, half of the pizza having one type of sauce and certain toppings, the other half sometimes being very different. The attention to detail these guys have is impressive, they always get it perfect. Very fair portions, great accuracy with orders, and really nice customer service. These guys set the benchmark for all other Hell Pizza stores around.”

“Seafood chowder was so SO good,as were the sweetcorn fritters with bacon avocado Chilli sauce and sour cream BUT there new GF cheesecake was exceptional. We went 4 plants but loaded up with great grub. Will definitely b back”
