At Secret Spot, we take burgers seriously, combining premium ingredients and bold flavours. Here’s what you can expect from our unbeatable burger menu:

The name says it all – a burger that’s simple yet absolutely satisfying. Featuring two juicy beef patties, melted cheese, tangy pickles, and our signature burger sauce, all sandwiched between a buttery brioche bun. It’s the burger you know and love, done right.
2. Classy Smash
Take your burger experience up a notch with the Classy Smash. This beauty builds on the Classic Smash by adding crisp lettuce and fresh tomato, giving it an extra crunch and a hint of garden freshness. It’s the perfect choice for those who enjoy a touch of elegance with their smash burgers.
3. BBQ Bacon Smash
For lovers of smoky, sweet, and savoury flavours, the BBQ Bacon Smash is a must-try. Packed with two beef patties, melted cheese, crispy manuka-smoked bacon, and smothered in rich BBQ sauce, this burger delivers a hearty, flavour-packed punch. Take it to the next level by adding beer battered onion rings into the mix.
4. Vege Burger
Vegetarian? No problem! Our Vege Burger is a standout, featuring a handcrafted feta and quinoa falafel patty, nestled in a brioche bun with fresh lettuce, pickles, tomato, and cheese. It’s so delicious, even meat-lovers find themselves tempted!
