Gordon Ramsay's restaurant group achieved more than £100 million in revenue in the UK during the previous year, with the five Bishopsgate locations recognized as its top performers. The celebrity chef's 34 UK eateries reported a 3% revenue increase, reaching £100.7 million in 2025. Operating losses for the group decreased from £7.3 million to £5.8 million.
Gordon Ramsay's restaurant empire, encompassing brands like Bread Street, Lucky Cat, and Hell's Kitchen, has experienced rapid expansion in the Square Mile over recent years. Following the opening of Lucky Cat and Bread Street Kitchen & Bar at 22 Bishopsgate, Ramsay's restaurant group now operates five sites within the City skyscraper, which stands as the UK's second-tallest building.
Andy Wenlock, chief executive of Gordon Ramsay Restaurants, expressed his delight at the year's success, crediting the entire team for the achievements. He highlighted 22 Bishopsgate as the star performer, with five distinct restaurant experiences in a single venue. However, the overall success of the group was equally impressive, with new openings across markets and a relentless focus on guest experience across all brands.
Lucky Cat's trading at 22 Bishopsgate benefited from the release of the Netflix documentary 'Being Gordon Ramsay' earlier in the year. The company attributed the boost in earnings to this release. Gordon Ramsay's UK restaurant group, however, experienced a 29% decline in earnings, amounting to £8.5 million year-on-year. Meanwhile, earnings at the chef's global operations rose by 12% to £14 million.
Gordon Ramsay Restaurants Global (GRRG), representing the chef's worldwide restaurant estate, reported £152 million in revenue last year, covering its 102 sites. The company is one of the world's largest privately-owned restaurant groups. In February 2025, Ramsay signed a deal to merge his UK and US operations into GRRG, with both Ramsay and Lion Capital, a London-based private equity firm, owning 50% of the company.
Lion Capital had previously invested $100 million into Ramsay's US business in 2019. Founded in 1998, Gordon Ramsay Restaurants operates in South Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, France, Dubai, Singapore, and Thailand. The group holds a total of nine Michelin stars, including three at its flagship Restaurant Gordon Ramsay in Chelsea.
