Gourmet Burger Kitchen (GBK) is a restaurant chain in Great Britain and Northern Ireland specialising in gourmet burgers from a fully traceable aberdeen angus herd.

GBK was developed by three New Zealanders living in London who missed the way food tasted in New Zealand. The celebrated New Zealand chef Peter Gordon, designed the menus for GBK, Air New Zealand and his own restaurant Providores in London. The New Zealand heritage is in evidence in the shape of the 'kiwiburger', a burger which contains the ingredients beetroot, pineapple and a fried egg.

GBK are expanding rapidly. In the UK 23 new stores opened in 2008 which brings the total number worldwide to 50+.They introduce unusual items such as wild boar, buffalo and Kobe/Wagyu beef burgers to their menu. They use only organic beef.

Gourmet Burger Kitchen is also expanding in Ireland and there is run by an Irish-owned restaurant franchise group.

There are 5 GBKs in Dubai and 1 in Turkey

25 new stores opened in 2008 in four countries , with a further 25 planned for 2009.
