I am Doner launches new Flavours

No one does kebabs quite like the iconic I am Doner. This is the reason why they are an award winning kebab business. 

Unlike a lot of other quick service brands I am Doner keeps its menu fairly basic, but they have decided that it's time for them to add some new flavour sensations.  

I am Doner is famous for its quirky and crazy special doners, just think back to their camel, lamb hearts, reindeer and Christmas dinner in a kebab offerings but since opening in back in 2016 it's made a conscious decision to keep any amendments to its core menu to a minimum.

As the country heads to a sporty summer, thinking here of the Olympics and Euros and they’re latest announcement that they will be opening stores overseas in Canada, I am Doner wanted to reach out across the world and bring in some new flavours, plus introducing several brand new menu items. Such as buttermilk chicken tenders, tender chicken burger and the ultimate sharer.  The new tenders will be available as a main course in three and five pieces and can be added to I Am Doner's flatbreads and bowls.

The better kebab brand is looking to trends that are popular with the public and working with them in their own, unique style. They are introducing four new flavours: Memphis BBQ, Katsu Curry Ketchup, Korean BBQ and a Coconut Curry.  

All their menu items have always been totally customisable and with the new menu diners will be able to pick one sauce out of a selection of seven flavours teamed up with a mayo of their choice allowing them to find their flavour.  For their hard core fans, there's no need for any anxiety. Because they'll be able to enjoy the OG of chilli sauce and garlic mayo.

Paul Baron, founder of I am Doner states: "Our new menu will be available from now onward for eating in our premises, taking away or for delivery.  

"We’ve gone for some unique new twists and flavours for our core menu, including the fresh buttermilk fried chicken tenders to expand our previous menu offering.  In truth, we hadn’t changed much in our core menu since we opened back in 2016 and we came to the conclusion that it was a good time to spice our menu up with some new global flavours."

Why not consider hosting your own Olympic or Euro party at home with catering provided by I Am Doner?

I am Doner signs first forecourt franchise deal

I am Doner, the superior and award winning better kebab brand backed by Think Hospitality, has signed a new franchise deal for a site in Windsor, to open later this summer.

The latest franchise deal, facilitated by Seeds Consulting, will see Four Crosses Filling Station Limited, a multi-site fuel station operator in the South East of England, operate the first I am Doner on a roadside forecourt.

I am Döner Chairman, James Hacon says ‘We are thrilled to sign this latest franchise deal and look forward to working together with Lawrence Wells and the team at Four Crosses. 

"This deal perfectly aligns to our strategic vision of proving the flexibility of our brand not only on high street and in neighbourhoods locations, but into roadside locations, travel hubs, universities and other concession environments. 

"Our franchise-first expansion plans are rapidly building pace with unprecedented interest in both the UK and overseas, but we like to keep our powder dry when it comes to our growth ambitions, focusing on delivering positive outcomes for our partners, proving our model through our actions, not big headlines numbers. There'll be more exciting news coming soon!"

Seeds Consulting Founder Matteo Frigeri adds: “We are seeing a lot of traction with the I am Döner's franchise programme, very few brands out there can claim to offer a quick-service concept with such moderate capex requirements and intrinsically lean operation, supported by the very latest technology. Here we demonstrate how the concept can flex to seize opportunities also in non-traditional sites.”

Lawrence Wells said: “I have been on the hunt for a food brand to go on my forecourt and when I came across I am Döner I knew it was a great fit with nothing like it in the area, I really can’t wait to showcase the brand later this summer."
