Customers at a Grey Lynn vegan burger eatery couldn鈥檛 believe it when Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker dropped in for a bite on Saturday afternoon.
Luke Burrows, boss of Wise Boys, said the A-lister couple just casually rolled in at around 3.30pm and asked about their burgers - and were not immediately recognised by the staff.
鈥淭hey came in and asked about our burger patties and what they are made of. We told them we make them ourselves, using a bunch of NZ ingredients,鈥 Burrows said.
鈥淭hey asked for a recommendation and our team said our signature burger 鈥楾he Wise Boy鈥 was the most popular, so they ordered that.
鈥淭hey also ordered some onion rings with our chipotle aioli.鈥

They realised who the couple were when some customers started asking to take selfies and photos with them.鈥
鈥淚t was at that point when it clicked who they were, and all the buzz and excitement began,鈥 Burrows said.
鈥淭hey were very, very friendly, low-key and really nice to deal with.鈥
Kardashian is a US reality TV star and Travis is the drummer for rock band Blink-182.

Burrows said the couple happy obliged to requests from customers to have photos taken with them.
鈥淪ome of my staff were pretty gutted to not be working yesterday when they heard who dropped in,鈥 he said.
鈥淭ravis is like royalty in the vegan community so it was pretty cool to have someone like that come through.鈥
Travis posted 鈥淪o good @wiseboysnz鈥 on Instagram after the meal.
A clip uploaded on Tik Tok yesterday showed the couple arriving at a downtown hotel in Auckland, with Kardashian - the mum of four who gave birth to Rocky Thirteen Barker on November 1 - pushing a stroller into the lobby, followed by her husband.
The Poosh founder and her husband tied the knot in 2022 in a lavish ceremony in Italy and welcomed their first child together last year.
The A-lister couple are in Auckland for Barker鈥檚 show at Spark Arena with fellow Blink-182 members Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge.
The band landed in some hot water with Kiwis after Blink-182 bassist and vocalist Hoppus was filmed saying 鈥渇*** Christchurch鈥 at a concert in Melbourne.
The offensive remark comes after the US band cancelled their highly anticipated concert in the Garden City, only two weeks before the gig was meant to take place.
A video uploaded to TikTok shows Hoppus ripping on Christchurch saying: 鈥淭o be honest Sydney sucked so f****ng bad we had to cancel Christchurch... f*** Christchurch.鈥
鈥淚t鈥檚 a gnarly name for a town, could you imagine naming your city that? If I were God,鈥 Hoppus said.
