Straight-up premium burgers

Shakeout - Burgerfuel

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 Palmerston North opened its doors in early December. Owned and proudly operated by Palmerston North locals, Ryan James & Brad Rubick, Palmerston North is the third (and second franchised) Shake Out store in New Zealand.

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