Delicious burgers

Great food and service, thoroughly recommend. Had a burger each with mac and cheese bites which were so good! Also had a jam doughnut which was possibly one of the best vegan doughnuts I’ve had 👌

Best burger, actually everything

I’ve been here many times and every time I love it. Their Rosie burger is the best wee burger I’ve ever had and their donuts are crazy good. Not much seating so try and be early for lunch. Lovely staff and great floating sodas too. Love it

Pros: Taste, Service, Venue

Vegan junk food heaven

Small venue, but full of flavour and amazing vegan junk food. I’m not a fan of seitan, so didn’t really eat the ‘chicken’ but the rest of the chicken dinner (roll, chips, gravy and coleslaw) was great, burger was great and Mac and cheese bites were yum (quite garlicky, which I like - only downside was that they didn’t taste that nice when cold).

Amazing!

Cauliflower tacos, rosie burger, and some donuts! Everything was perfect and a great lunch and dessert for 2 days! Hard to find if you aren’t familiar with the area, but worth the hunt.

Pros: Cauliflower tacos, Friendly staff, Fully vegan

A must visit if in NZ

I've followed Hello Rosie for so long and only just tried the food whilst on holiday in NZ.

We travelled to Hamilton from Rotorua for the Black Ferns game. Arrived right at opening time, so there was no wait to be served. (I'm glad we got there early because some donuts were sold out by the time we left)

All the food we had was AMAZING and with everything being vegan, we could order anything from the menu.

We ordered eat-in as well as takeaway.

Eat-in:
Dinner Box
Mac & Cheese Bites
Cheeseburger fries
All were amazing flavours and quick service.

Takeaway:
Chickun Tacos
Dinner Box
All the donuts, cakes, sweets
We ate the donuts during the same day and the next day. They were all so delicious but my favourite was the toffee pop!!!
We ate the tacos and dinner box at home when we got back to Rotorua. Heated up nicely in the oven and still tasted AMAZING!!!

Staff were super friendly and didn't feel like we were being rushed when ordering because we couldn't decide what we wanted.

Recommend that if you want to try all the sweets, get in early because they sold out so quickly.
There is pais street parking however can be difficult to find a free spot. There is a paid parking lot across the road at the shopping centre.

I'll definitely be back one day. Thanks so much guys!

Pros: Full vegan, Toffee pop donut was THE BEST!!

Alright

The burger fries were alright. The toppings were nice but stuff did get a bit soggy. The burgers looked interesting

Doesn't get better than this!

What an absolute treat - top quality, all vegan, variety of flavors and options. We loved the fried Mac n cheese, cheeseburger fries and crispy chick'n tacos. Spot on flavors, textures, just fabulous!

Great addition to Hamilton

My sister brought me here. Unfortunately neither of us were hungry enough for a meal but we shared the cheeseburger fries and I had a biscoff shake. Both were great. I’ll definitely go back next time I’m in Hamilton.

Too good to be true

Gosh their place and food are amazing.
We went a few months ago and had came back after we travelled all of the South of Aotearoe.
The simply laid out menu makes you think it'll be easy to choose, but it's never easy if you feel like you want to try it all. 😅

Seeing all the doughnuts makes you feel the same, but you can't really go wrong as it all tastes banging and fills you up.

Pros: 100% plant based/ vegan deliciousness , Easy menu layout , Good portions for the money

Cons: No gluten-free options on the sweet side

Great vegan find.

I had a 30 minute stopover at the bus station, and luckily this place was very close. I had the buffalo burger and a banana shake. All very nice.

AH-MAZING!

I followed Hello Rosie on Instagram for a long time before finally being able to visit and it exceeded my high expectations! I had the Mac n Cheese bites which were absolutely delicious and not too heavy. My non vegan hubby enjoyed them too. I also loaded up on Donuts - all so yummy! My faves were Biscoff and Jam & Cream. Again, not too heavy. Highly recommend!

Pros: ALL vegan, Lovely friendly service, Lots to choose from

A must visit in Tauranga!

Made sure to swing past one of Hello Rosie’s locations whilst in Tauranga for the weekend and it was an absolute highlight! The food was bloody delicious. My partner even said it was the best burger he had. The donut options were insane and tasted amazing. I got the chick’n tacos and a passion fruit custard donut - which were both fantastic. The staff were so kind and it was great to see how busy they were. Can’t wait to try the Mac n Cheese bites next time!

If you are in Tauranga, this is a must do visit! Check out their Insta for their locations during the weekend😄

Pros: Food is fantastic (especially the donuts!), Really friendly staff, Great vibe
