The best of humanity work here. Highly highly recommend as a good place to spend your money. The margarita slushies with a shot of vodka is the way to go anytime of day any night. Also the food is great.
The staff at colombo are always the coolest people! 20/10! Love coming back for good food and good chat! Whoever does the hiring is on point ! ���
Great vegan burger! A little gem next to our holiday park! Loved the burger and beer. Simple. So tasty. Friendly service. Would defs go again when I’m in the area.
10/10. Bloody good buggers, and bloody good burgers! Great food, and excellent service. Don't go there too often but the guys remember my order from the time of before, all the same. Great yarns while waiting for the food, and hardly any wait at all at that. I don't normally write a review but really thought it was worth leaving some good feedback. Highly recommend.
Yum yum yum ,amazing service and even let me take my Chihuahua round the back so I could enjoy crispy chips and a nice cold beer with my pooch .Very helpful staff ,even taking the time to explain that they could take stuff out or add stuff in .I'll be back for a burger next time �
Been to columbo st branch many times and can never fault the food, sometimes there's a bit of a wait but the service is top notch. Always been served with a smile especially by the lovely Molly. The chips & gravy are to die for.
I actually loved it. It was a good burger.
I recommend going there.

Best, best burgers out!!!! They had a 20m wait , they were worried about the wait but when you have burgers tasting like that!!!!! They shouldn’t have no worries at all
Excellent burgers,chips and onion rings, oh and the beer was nice too! Would recommend to anyone.
Had the iwi burger was delicious and the chips with gravy fantastic.the whole atmosphere there was great with great service
Shot burgers and beers Sydenham, busy asf today great service from.the lass behind the counter and delicious as always,Chur
Awesome food and customer service. Voiced my disappointment in the lack of options available for re-usable utensils and plates and got a wonderfully considerate response which was very receptive to embracing more sustainable business practices! Setting an excellent example for others in the hospitality industry.
Loved it! I had a chicken burger and it was so goood! And the chips and the gravy are just amazing! Customer service was great and we got our food pretty quick.
Friendly staff, nice and clean restaurant, stunningly crafted burgers! The Iwi burger with pineapple and Moroccan seasoning!! The chips are some of the best around!
Came here late at night looking for something decent to eat, wasn't dissapointed! The burgers are massive and delicious, and you can't go past the chips with gravy either. Be warned though.... the food is messy so don't come here with someone that you're trying to impress. Even though it was late the staff were still alert and friendly, much more than I would be at 10pm. The decor is pretty neat, I love the retro tables and chairs.
Big tasty burgers, awesome onion rings, good price, chilled out, menu confused me a bit, would be better if it was written out/laid out more clearly for simple blondes like myself.
Tasty burgers, chilled atmosphere. Don't go expecting a fine dining experience. You order at the bar and your number is called when your burgers are ready.
I had one of the vegetarian burgers (cheese retro) and it was pretty good. I will mention that I believe that they cook their fries in animal fat, so if you're a vegetarian watch out for that!

A lot of the previous reviews seem to expect this place to be some kind of four star restaurant. It's not, and you shouldn't expect it to be. This place is the gourmet equivalent of Burger King, and you come here for damn good burgers. And beers. The burgers are a decent sized meal on their own, and for $13.50 each it's not four star prices either. You don't get service (per se). You pay up front. You get your meal in bags. If you're nice, you put your rubbish in the bins provided.
Once you understand all this, most of the time these guys make the best burgers in Christchurch. Annoyingly, their beef patties tend to be a little less tasty than, say, Burger Fuel. But Burger and Beers have the great sourdough buns, and excellent adventurous flavours in their burgers. They're some of the most expensive, especially when you add in chips and a drink, but overall I'd say these are the best you can get.
They do make pretty nice chips too, and with the gravy, bravo. I'd avoid the onion rings as they are usually too salty and a bit greasy. I'd also avoid the Peal Habour fish burger. It tastes alright, but is often too soggy.
2017 update: The prices have remained the same, so they're now cheaper than half the Burger Fuel menu and significantly better. Consistency has increased in my opinion. Bravo.

First time I had been over this side of town since the quakes and I was pleasantly surprised by the amount or restaurants in the area my friend and I decided to get some lunch at burgers and beers as it looked quiet different although I was a bit skeptical as my friend was vegetarian and the last burger place I went was dreadful and I was worried I would be a bit disappointed however when we walk in the person behind the counter was friendly explaining how they work you order at the counter and come get your food ( this is very forward thinking for nz it's a style of service I've come accross a lot overseas and seems to work really well however looking at previous reveiws some New Zealanders appear to be a bit small minded to understand this interactive service style) we explained to the server that my friend was vegetarian who explained that they do use beef fat to deep fry which does limit the options but that the tree hugger burger was vege and could be changed to suit tastes as my friend didn't like feta they swapped it for cheddar and avocado and I got the flaming Mexican and chips at first I thought the prices were possibly a little high but when we got the food I understood why it was huge and really really nice if anything it's underpriced go to any other restaurant and you would get half the amount of food that quality for that price
So overall great food great service great price only reason it's not a 5 out of 5 is cos another couple of vege options would be appriatiaed
Mixed review. THE CHIPS, omg best chips ever, so salty and yum! Iwi burger was a hit!! Big and yummy, the kids burgers were yummy and generous sized!! Voodoo was a bit sloppy but tasted pretty good, and then the Zodiac burger i got on a Gluten Free bun and unfortunately the whole burger was just soggy, tasteless and gross, there wasn't much pork and the pork had no flavour, some salt would of done it greatly! The onions and stuffing was just a mushy mess and tasted burnt, couldn't taste gravy, lettuce was all wilted from the heat (understandable) but was just a yucky burger. So apart from the Pork Belly Burger it was pretty good, maybe the team could look at a way at making it more flavourful. Thanks
Love all the burgers here! Especially the chicken ones, a lot of favour and they are big and filling!! Most people that work there are nice and have good chat. You can also get the app and check in 5 times to get free chips or onion rings, I'm happy they have kumara chips now and they are great!!! They complete the burger. Definitely recommend for any burger lovers
Popped in on my way to a birth, fantastic quick service, would give more than 5 stars for the service I received above and beyond.
Great food.
Wow wow wow.. what more can be siad food was 10/10 drinks served cold but those chips and gravey um....100 out of 10 not sure where they find them but dam must be from out of this world, service was fast i have spent more time In a Maccas drive thought waiting for a cheese burger lol, the staff where amazing the theme was a good discussion point, place was clean and bathroom facilities are like nothing never seen before 150% a place to visit grab a burger and beer (or three) and enjoy what there have to offer Cranford Street they place to go
It's a good place to take your kids and have a inexpensive burger and fries. I love its horror gimmick. Very cool.
Best chips and gravy in chch by far. The service is also insane, there’s a cowboy that works there and he’s the bees knees! Definitely the goat + thx for extra gravy you beasts
Guaranteed a great burger (and large) every time. The chips and gravy are great. Best of all is the friendly staff that give great service even when rushed off their feet.
Only negative is the wait times some times but that's a minor and only occasionally
Quick service, nice big burger and chips.
Friendly staff
Took the work crew out here last Saturday ( we are a rowdy fun bunch too!) group of 9 and boy oh boy were we impressed. Best burger I've probably EVER had, totally generous portions and the CHIPS if you think the burgers are good .....wait until you taste those. Nomnomnom! Only two people were on, all of our meals were served together fresh hot and just DELICIOUS. Thanks so much guys, we will be back! 🦄🙈❤️
Best burgers and chips of any gourmet burger place in. Christchurch. Good range of drinks too and reasonably priced.

Went with work friends, so there was 8 of us. We all got served delicious burgers at the same time and everyone enjoyed what they ordered. The chips with gravy were especially good.
