The lady instore was by herself however extremely efficient and very nice. Food was above expectation. I was going past while working and stopped to get something for lunch. Fish burger and spring roll. Reasonable prices and the food was given to me piping hot and fresh. Fish and spring roll extremely crispy on the outside and juciy inside. Will definitely be back when I'm in the area!

Been twice in one week. We live in Birkdale and we are so impressed with the food coming out of this takeaway, just feel the love in the food from the couple that own this business. Today we ordered a toasted sandwich, damn that was one mean toastie, never seen another takeaway put so much care into a toastie. Well done Burgermaster a well deserved 5 star rating from me!

Posting for a few reasons. The fish n chips here are some of the best ive had in the city so far and i go out of my way for it. Cripsy crunch and always fresh. And portions are always generous. I like my chips well done too and its also somewhere that understands that when most ignore the request and just give soggy chips. The customer service is above and beyond. We are always greeted warmly with smiles and friendliness. This alone is a reason to revisit, i dont understand why other shops don’t understand the value of quality customer service. And lastly, there arent any photos of the fish n chips in the pictures above so...here are a few.

Really good fish and chips! Had a piece of battered snapper (fab) and a scoop of chips. The chips were good and crispy which is hard to find! My partner had the fish burger and said that was tasty too. We had 2 scoops between us and it was a very generous serving.

Polite service from a very friendly couple. I highly recommend the Battered Snapper, which is easily among the best I have ever tasted. I enjoy their food so much that I drive halfway across the North Shore for their delicious fish'n'chips. I definitely recommend them.
