Brought to you by the team behind BurgerFuel; Shake Out was born out of the need to create a simple, fast burger solution for busy lifestyles, that didn’t scrimp on premium ingredients and was convenient enough to enjoy on-the-go, any time, anywhere.

Premium ingredients have been chosen with care. From grass-fed NZ beef, free-range chicken through to organic NZ dairy; a simple menu of only sixteen items has been carefully curated to create a deliciously fast food experience.

Shake Out Browns Bay opened its doors in July. Owned and proudly operated by North Shore local, James Stevenson, Browns Bay is the second (and first franchised) Shake Out store on the Shore.

To find out more about their food, stores and compostable packaging, head to shakeout.co
