The Burger Shop Co.

What The Burger Shop Co. does

The Burger Shop Co. (also trading as Burgerlicious) is a family-owned burger restaurant operating from a single site at 14-16 High Street in Arundel, West Sussex, United Kingdom. The business is built around a proprietary 100% British steak burger patty recipe and bespoke artisan buns, with all beef dry-aged 28-90 days and supplied through a strategic partnership with H G Walter, an independent family-run butcher. The product range covers a Main Menu, a dedicated Breakfast Menu served 9AM-11:30AM, a Kids Menu, and a Drinks & Desserts selection, with full daypart coverage seven days a week including extended weekend dinner service.

The company makes money through three channels: dine-in restaurant sales at the Arundel location, Click & Collect orders placed through a proprietary online ordering system, and home delivery fulfilled via the Deliveroo third-party marketplace. It serves local residents, families, and tourists visiting Arundel's historic town centre, with explicit positioning around British sourcing, sustainability (compostable/recyclable packaging, no plastic straws or bags since inception), and a "family-run" brand identity. Operating with approximately 7 employees, it is a single-unit independent operator with no external institutional funding, no parent company, and no disclosed revenue figure.

The underlying operations are non-technological: food preparation, ingredient sourcing, and front-of-house service are the core activities, supported by a basic website, an Instagram presence (@theburgershopco_arundel), and standard restaurant tech integrations for bookings and orders. There is no software platform, app, API, or proprietary technology stack of meaningful complexity described in the available data.
