Six years after Lewis Hamilton launched a vegan burger chain, the company is forced to shut shop.
Neat Burger, a restaurant chain supported by Lewis Hamilton, has gone into liquidation after facing ongoing financial losses, as per documents filed with Companies House. A general meeting was held on 22nd July, where a special resolution was passed to wind up the company voluntarily, with liquidators authorized to distribute remaining assets to shareholders. The insolvency form was processed by Companies House on 31st July following authorization by the liquidators at FRP Advisory. The insolvency notice revealed that primary shareholders were optimistic about Neat Burger’s ability to settle all debts, including interest, within a year. Despite holding assets valued at £1,279,044 as of 2nd July 2025, primarily in investments, the company faced challenges turning a profit, with losses reaching £7.86 million in 2022. Lewis Hamilton, a seven-time F1 champion, established the plant-based food chain Neat Burgers in 2019 as part of his vegan lifestyle transition. Expanding internationally to locations like New York and Milan, Neat Burger once operated eight outlets in London, though the last two UK-based restaurants closed earlier this year, marking the end of an era for Hamilton’s food venture. Alongside Hamilton, other prominent investors in the company included Leonardo di Caprio and Thibaut Courtois.
