Zambrero

Zambrero Zambrero, a Mexican restaurant located at Bluewater Square, was a popular spot for those looking for delicious and healthy Mexican inspired food. The restaurant had a unique mission of not only providing great tasting meals but also helping to combat world hunger. With their Plate 4 Plate initiative, every purchase of a burrito or bowl resulted in a meal being donated to someone in need. Since its establishment in 2005 by Dr. Sam Prince, Zambrero grew rapidly, expanding to over 200 locations across Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and the United States. Unfortunately, this business has been permanently closed.

Today is Plate 4 Plate Day. 🎉🌯

Every day, a qualifying meal at Zambrero means a meal donated to someone in need. Today, that doubles.

Order a regular or big burrito or bowl and you're feeding two people instead of one. Kids Zam Boxes and retail items count too.

Meanwhile, thousands of volunteers are packing a million meals at events around the country, which will be distributed globally by Rise Against Hunger. It all adds to the 110 million+ meals donated since 2011.

P.S. you'll also earn double Zam Fam points in the Zam app while you're at it.

The lunch catch-up that turns into an hour because no one wants to leave. 🌯💚

"Made from scratch" gets thrown around a lot. At Zambrero, it's how we actually do things. 🌶️

Our tomato, corn and coriander salsas are prepared fresh in-restaurant, daily. Our guac is smashed fresh throughout the day using real avocado, lime juice and red onion - no pre-made tubs. Even something as simple as rice gets real attention: our black rice is simmered with Zam Spice, vegetable stock and amaranth for a flavour and nutritional edge most quick-service Mexican doesn't bother with.

It's a lot of small decisions that add up to one thing: food you can actually feel good about.

This is Feel Good Mex. Come for the food, stay for the feeling.

Cheering with the team that got there, or needing a feed to soften the loss, Zambrero's got you either way tonight.

We see that face a lot. The one where you're standing at the counter, staring at the menu, trying to decide between six proteins, seven signature sauces, black rice or white, bowl or burrito. And honestly, we love that for you.

Because at Zambrero, there's no wrong choice. Just different ways to build something that's fresh, made your way, and genuinely worth the extra 30 seconds of deliberation.

Take your time. Then enjoy every bit of it.
