Burger Culture

Nelson’s only dedicated burger joint – fresh, handcrafted, independent. Our fundamental goal is to create a destination that delights the senses.

Be nostalgic, cast your mind back to when you were a kid; you only ever did what you wanted to do. Stuff that’s fun, exciting, maybe a bit rebellious. This is a playground for your inner child, let that kid out – it’s still there, screaming out for a burger.

We’re the kids that have owned and run neighbouring pub, The Vic, since 2010. The team is an amalgamation of people we love working with who hold a passion for hospitality and drive for success. Family is one of our key values, and everyone who works here is a part of that.

I had looked up on coming here before we came to stay in Nelson and I am so happy that I had come here definitely lived up to what I was thinking it would be. Burgers are SO good!! Had me saying mmmm with every bite! I loved that you could get gravy with your fries and had the option to put it on the side I had got the Run BMC burger which was so good the cheese sauce was yummy the burger was juicy and not messy. It held together well aswell. I could have easily eaten another it was that good. Bit on the high price but definitely worth it. It was good to have someone show us a table give us menus take our order etc I appreciated the water given as we sat down as I had been walking and was thirsty. Wish i could eat here again, maybe next time I come for a holiday. Thank you so much for your hospitality

We visited Burger Culture while we were on holiday in Nelson. We had no idea what to expect. Our server was so friendly and made recommendations when we asked. The food was delicious and it was quick service. We went back for a second visit and it was just as good. Thank you.

Delicious burgers, had the Chick Astley and the Henny Kravitz. Chips pretty good. Deep fried pickles with sriracha mayo 10/10. Good tap beer selection. Recommended!

I had the jackfruit burger which was really saucy with a bit of spice. The burger was full of flavour but a bit mushy for my liking. My boyfriend had the pork burger, which he didn't love - he had food regret and wished he had ordered a beef burger 😅. Everything looked amazing coming out to the tables and I liked that it had a nice atmosphere on a Sunday evening. Service was 10/10
