Urban Burger was founded in 2017 by husband and wife Mehmet and Zerin Kent. They launched the first location in Wheatley, Doncaster.

Its website states: “​A healthier choice with flawless flavour, our signature smash style patties keep customers coming back. Our secret sauce? Choosing only the freshest, best quality ingredients from local suppliers. It’s a commitment we’ve held true to since day one, and one we’ll never compromise on.”

The new eaterie is set to be joined by McDonald’s and a new Turkish restaurant as the once famous shopping street shifts towards food and drink.
