Great place to grab something quick to eat. The shawarmas are great value for money and always taste brilliant. Lamb shawarma is usually sold out by late afternoon. Menu is only small, with only chicken and lamb available, but everything is made to order. Would definitely recommend it.

In the area after watching our team Hyde United play Stockton Town and decided to get some scran before heading home. Done a bit of research beforehand and found this place so decided to give it a go. Really impressed with the food and portion size. Fresh naan and salad and the staff were friendly as well. All in all a great experience.

2 large mix delivered, nicely wrapped. Breads, meat and salad were spot on. Used to go to one on Victoria road Boro, this is as good if not better.

My partner used to always go here and treat our son. He said best shawarma in the North East. Every pay day it was their first place to call. The staff are always polite and friendly, often when the queue is out the door. Try the mixed .

I was told, and recommended by a recently new friend that's brought me out to try out the restaurant. the story behind it all was during work shifts, I and our friend like to discuss stories about our youth with similar interests in food and video games. Upon recent talks on the topics of shwarmas he'd approached me with a question: "Have I ever ate a shwarma before?" and me, never having tried it - suddenly reminded me back to my 10 year old self rewatching the post-credits sequences for Marvel Avengers. Overall, It was a delightful treat to be eating here to the point where I couldn't finish my meal. Could barely eat anymore, stuffed by the time I finished my Lamb wraps. Would HIGHLY recommend bringing friends here. 10/10 3
