German Doner Kebab (GDK) offers a "premium dining experience", a spokesperson said, and serves authentic Middle Eastern street food and modern, contemporary formats. From its inception in Berlin in 1989, company owners have spent decades developing its products and recipes, creating its own unique blend of spices, innovative signature sauces, and distinctive ‘Doner Kebab’ waffle bread.

The restaurant menu at the Kirkstall Road spot will feature the brand’s all new Coco & Kiki kebabs, the UK’s first pink kebabs. The new products are served in fluffy pink coconut-infused waffle bread, in two different sizes (Coco and Kiki) and are combined with doner meats, fresh lettuce, tomato, onion, red cabbage, making it a seriously delicious balance of nutty sweetness mixed with GDK savoury flavours.

The brand now has over 100 restaurants in the UK alone. Daniel Bunce, GDK Global COO, said: "We’re delighted to officially announce plans to bring the German Doner Kebab experience to Leeds Cardigan Fields.

"Our game-changing kebabs are revolutionising the kebab in the UK and we are excited to be bringing a new fast-casual dining experience to the area, offering great tasting fresh food in a relaxed and modern setting."

Once opened, German Doner Kebab will offer a full dine-in experience, as well as Takeaway and Click and Collect. Delivery will soon be available through GDK’s Delivery partners. For more details of job opportunities click here.
