A Labour of Love
B.C. was established in July 2017 by the Williams family and Scott Wright.
It was a dream finally in fruition. We always knew there was a gap in the Nelson market for a proper good burger bar, and after spending a little time back in Bristol, UK, we knew we needed to see our two homes blended to make one new culture. Both cities have a vibrant food scene and unique art history - to see the two culminate into one vision was a beautiful thing. Mix that with good tunes, vibrant staff, local and homemade offerings from the bar and the kitchen, we reckon we’ve got the recipe pretty spot on for NZ’s best burger joint.
The Squad
Ian & Sally
Managing Directors/Owners
Burger Culture is a combination of many talented folks with the same vision; here’s some of those people.
For the most part, we’re all related - 99% of the time this is a good thing (we won’t talk about the 1%).
There’s Mum & Dad, also known as Ian and Sally – who are the absolute foundation for our success in business, the most selfless old codgers you could imagine. Without them, none of this would be possible. Ian has decades of experience in running businesses, consultancy work and personal growth. Sally has been moulding the minds of our youth as a teacher since she was a young whipper-snapper, so knows how to keep us all in line!
Then there’s their unruly kids - these 4 own and operate BC, as well as the pub next door.
Add the help of a few great family friends, and there you have it - Burger Culture was born.
