July 01, 2015 // Franchising.com // LOS ANGELES, CA – The Counter® Custom Built Burgers - the premium build-your-own-burger restaurant - is now operating its second Saudi Arabian location in Riyadh. The Counter® offers a burger for every lifestyle with over a million possible combinations and embraces “burgers with a conscience,” using naturally raised, hormone- and antibiotic-free beef, all-natural chicken, locally sourced shrimp, and a house-made vegan/veggie burger for their burger and salad style burger bowls. Additionally, The Counter® serves a wide selection of bold signature burgers and burger bowls, flavorful side dishes, milkshakes, all featuring quality ingredients.
At The Counter®, guests creatively construct their burgers by selecting from the following options using a checklist-style menu:
"We are proud to expand The Counter®’s footprint in Saudi Arabia and introduce the fun build-your-own burger concept to new guests,” said franchisee Khaled Al-Dajani of Dayem Holdings. “We look forward to growing with the Riyadh community and seeing all the new burger creations.”
“We built The Counter® as a space for guests to create burgers without limits and to have fun in the process,” said Craig Albert, co-CEO of The Counter®. “We’re excited to work with Khaled and Dayem Holdings to expand the concept to Riyadh, as Saudi Arabia has been extremely warm and welcoming.”
The Counter® Riyadh is located on Tahliya Street, occupies 3,767 square feet and seats a total of 165 guests. The restaurant also features a patio for outdoor seating.
Founded in 2003, The Counter®’s mission was to challenge the traditional burger joint and the Culver City, California-based brand grew into more than 40 stores. The Counter® offers a fresh, unconventional approach to creating the ultimate burger, offering over a million possible burger combinations with a choice from seven proteins, 16 cheeses, 45 toppings, 23 unique sauces and eight types of buns. The Counter® offers a full-service, casual dining experience in an inviting space with industrial décor and upbeat music.
