Chief Burger popularly known as Chief is a Pakistani fast food restaurant that originated in Peshawar.[3] It has two outlets in Peshawar and two outlets in neighboring Afghanistan in the cities of Kabul and Mazar-E-Sharif. The restaurant is known for introducing the western style concept of fast food in Peshawar. [4]

Muhammad Mumtaz Ilahi worked as a chef and administrator in Serena Hotel in Islamabad who came to Peshawar and opened Chief Burger in 1984.[5] Ilahi's brother, Babar Hussain Ilahi who worked as a chef at a three star hotel in the United Arab Emirates returned to Peshawar and trained staff on how to make western style fast food.[6] This made Chief Burger, one of the first fast food restaurants in Peshawar and Pakistan.
