I have brought over 20 burgers from this place in the last 3 years and they still don’t understand what no beetroot means. Ive said 3 times over the 20 phone calls I’ve made, specifically saying not to put beetroot IN MY BLOODY BURGER. Ive even made out I'm allergic to the stuff just so they don't put it in the burger and they still put it in. I mean how many times do you have to tell these people!!!. Ive thrown out 15 of these burgers in disgust. Obviously they don't care about their customers or what they want. I think this is the worst place to eat out in. In fact i will never go to this place ever again to eat. It’s like they are doing it on purpose. Ive now wasted $600 on burgers over the 3 years just to be pissed off. Why do i keep going back? Because there is nowhere else to eat out. And every time ive ordered the burger I've specifically said 3 times in the conversation not to put beetroot in my burger to make sure, Ive even got them to repeat that to me to make sure they heard and understood me but yet they put it in. If you want disappointment eat out at the roots bar. Cheers.

Actually the reason why i have left a review is because this has happened multiple times. It’s not my job to check that my order is correct. I have made it clear on multiple occasions yet it keeps happening which is very disappointing, and thats why i have resorted to...

Roots Bar is an absolute gem of a burger bar that offers a unique and quirky dining experience. The modern take on a retro vibe is executed perfectly, with interesting independent style pop artists like Martha & The Muffins providing the perfect backdrop for a meal.

But the real star of the show here is the food. The burgers are made with an impressive range of flavors and a combination of ingredients that you wouldn't normally expect to find together. Yet somehow, these seemingly mismatched flavors and ingredients come together in a truly delicious and unforgettable way.

Whether you're in the mood for something classic or want to try something a little more adventurous, Roots Bar has got you covered. Every burger on the menu is packed with flavor and will leave your taste buds dancing with joy.

Overall, Roots Bar is a must-visit for anyone in Tākaka looking for a great burger and a fun, quirky dining experience. From the friendly and attentive staff to the delicious and inventive food, everything about this place is top-notch. So don't hesitate – head to Roots Bar today and experience the magic...

Arrived early January. It was so busy you could barely move. Staff were dealing with massive volumes of guests, food and drinks orders and dealing with the added weight of the Covid protocols. They were all obviously very tired but happy and positive. In these holiday towns staff often work 14-18 hour days in the high season to deal with the shear volume of guests. They do this while dealing with a myriad of associated challenges: running low on stock, slowed cooking and bar times, low energy, not enough seating, equipment breaking, less than sober punters, road-weary mums and dads...the list goes on. Trust me, when it gets this busy its easy to let the pressure of it all effect the staff performance, or at very least their energy. On our visit all of this was apparent, but NONE of it was having an effect on the smiling faces and welcoming attitude of the staff and managers. I hope you all get a well deserved break in after the summer rush. Cheers for the cold beer...

This place is amazing! I made the trek to Takaka from Nelson specifically to try this place out and it did not disappoint! I had the Wild Pork Taco and the Jamaican Curry Goat Burger and both were amazing and like nothing I’ve ever had before. There was also a beautiful selection of local beer brewed in the Tasman region as well. Mask mandates were enforced and frankly recent responses from the owner defending her staff speaks to how much care and passion is put into the whole business. If you don’t work hospitality, just remember it’s a really tough time for all hospo right now and most are doing their very best!

What an awesome spot! Fast and friendly service, great atmosphere inside and out in the courtyard and beer garden out back, big selection of fresh locally brewed beers and some seriously delicious food. My fam and I all enjoyed a burger, I had the standard hamburger which was very tasty, wifey and daughter had the chicken burger which was NEXT LEVEL delicious! We will be back x.
