    You can die of hunger waiting in line for a Ferg burger, so a win-win.

    We were in the queue for 90 mins a couple of weeks back.

    @bovidae good burgers though. And you can have a beer while you're waiting!

    I can't explain, not sure if part of it is the hype but it's just a really well made burger. And the buns are great

    @canefan the buns can make a simple burger great, but shitty buns with great meat & extras can still be poor.

    The amount of FB posts from mates about how good it is is staggering.

    I think reputation can cut both ways. I expected much and felt like they delivered. So much so that I went back two days later

    They have used the hype and word of mouth to their advantage, as you can’t do phone orders so you need to line up. The tourists obviously want to try one.

    Ferg burgers are really good and reasonably priced but I didn’t think they are any better than say Burger Fuel. But there isn’t one of those in Queenstown

    @bovidae Burger Fuel is not reasonably priced though.

    Ferg burgers and Burger Fuel are similar in price for gourmet burgers. You get what you pay for. 😊

    New Zealand enters the space age , heralds lead story is great coverage of this event. Stuffs is Paula Bennett saying she doesn’t care what the haters think about her weight loss surgery.

    Ffs.

    Great quality burgers. I tell everyone who is going to Queenstown for the first time to get one.

    This is deeply upsetting. I'd better tell the mrs how racist she is being when she laughs at my silly Asian, Indian and Maori accents.

    Alison wasn't 'outraged' and didn't take to Twitter but instead found time to write a massive liberal wankfest.

    I read the first sentence where she seems to think having a sense of humour is the ability to make someone laugh. No Alison, that's called being a funny fluffybunny, having a sense of humour is the ability to appreciate humour - something you appear to be lacking.

    Redbeard put me on to Fergburgers over a decade ago. Before the hype. There wasn't a queue. They were obscenely huge which I think is basically the start and finish of it. Then the Trip Advisor/Farcebook hype took off and I have never seen a queue with less than 30 people in it. As a result you would have to pay me (serious) money to have one.

    Folks there are plenty of other great places to eat and drink only metres away and life's too short - but no its become part of the QT experience - jet boat, bungy, canyon, paraglide, Fergburger CHECK!

    I don't want to rain on your parade here, but I was hyping them before that.
