About Us

Johnny’s Tairua is a local, family run burger shack in the heart of Tairua, serving big burgers, beach vibes, and real fruit ice cream. What started in December 2018 as a simple idea to bring good quality burgers and tacos to the Coromandel has grown into a favourite for locals and visitors alike.

Built around fresh ingredients, generous portions, and a relaxed coastal feel, we’re the go-to spot for a proper feed after a swim, a surf, or a day exploring Hot Water Beach and Cathedral Cove. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or feeding the whole whānau, we keep it simple no fuss, just solid kai and friendly faces.

Proudly local and community focused, we love being part of Tairua and sharing good food with the people who make this place special.Johnny’s Tairua is a local, family run burger shack in the heart of Tairua, serving big burgers, beach vibes, and real fruit ice cream.
