Reviews of MAKAN

B. A.

Nice, quiet and clean place. The staff are really courteous and seats are well spaced. The menu was well explained and what you order is what you get. It gives a classy ambience and you can grab a quick bite of meals as well as finger foods. Food is really tasty and affordable too. Great place, I will definitely go again

S.

I’ve visited in this Showerma place & the food quality was a top ranking Middle Eastern restaurant style. As soon as I’m in Birmingham again, I will not hesitate to return here. One small issue about this place is the soap dispenser near the washing area was empty & it’s important to get it checked as we’re in a global pandemic.

A.

Chicken shawarma was dry. Rice was not spiced well and not that good quality. Price is competitive compared nearby places. Halal food. Plenty of seating area. Customer service is good. If you plan to eat in then my advise would be to avoid the mix shawarma and rice. Their platters and shawarma with bread is better. With Shawarma city being few steps away I cant highly recommend this place. There is just a lot of competition so they need to improve massively. If you found my review helpful then a like would be much appreciated.

n. h.

The best place for fast food so far ,my kids and I just love it and noticed a difference between this place and the other ones. They even updated their recipe as their shawarma is not soaked in oil! Fantastic keep it up guys and well done 👍✅.

B. ಠ.

One of the most underrated place to eat. The staff are very friendly and the environment amazing. The prices and the quality of food is out of the world. This could have been 5 stars only because I think they should improve on take out, the reason being is that they give you a huge tray (for the platter) for take out and is very hard when it comes to transport it around. I would suggest to place it in small containers because is much more easier to place the food in your bag for example.

S. S.

Great food, sharwarma is not greasy, good portion sizes and typically served very quickly. A little hidden gem in the city centre. Downfall is that it closes before 6 pm, due to its location within Priory Square. Overall: good food, fair prices and good location.

A.

Food was perfect....had the puffy and fluffy shawarma. Meat was perfectly cooked, all the fillings were fresh and really full Of flavour. Portion is more than enough. The bread was fresh and tasty aswell... First time visit, definitley not the last... Would defo recommend.

M. A.

Nice place, very delicious food, and friendly staff. Today I was in city center and found this amazing place with my wife. We ordered falafel wrap (vegan) meal, the French fries was so yummy it had very tasty spices. We loved it so much, we definitely coming back. And good arabic music as well👍 Must visit if you like Arabic food.

S. E. T.

Delicious food Follow me on TikTok/ instagram: lettuceathere You can find a video of this place’s food

N. W.

Clean, spacious and welcoming place with good food at good prices. Though the menu is akin to typical chicken shops, some of the flavours were reminiscent of fast food from Syria. We met staff members Mohammad and Aasim who were both very friendly and accommodating.

A. A. A.

Very delicious food And the place is so clean. If you are a fan of the garlic sauce, this place has the most delicious garlic sauce in the city. I highly recommend visiting this place.

Z. N.

Amazing, tasty food with amazing staff. Good food, good service. P.S probably the best shawarma in Birmingham.

L. A.

Food tastes great. Very clean place. very good friendly customer service. But the most important thing to me is the taste which takes me back to Syria. Great job keep it up.

G. E.

I love the food is good quality and quantity the shawarma and the rice has different flavours Arabic flavour, I love the place, good staff, good price and very generous in the quantity of the food, may Allah put baraka on your business. Good luck. I love the seasoning in the fries 🤤

A. M.

Awesome Shawarma, definitely one of the best ones in the area. And the price can't be beat. Will surely return.

W. K.

Food and service are very fast and well done! I was surprised to learn the founder the of this place had founded Old Damascus. Do check out this place, best restaurant with shawarma dishes in miles. Better than Shawarma city.

H. A.

Lovely place the shawarma wrap is massive so tasty and so worth it!!! Update we tooo family for lunch and was lovely yet again!!!

S. J.

Best Fried Chicken I had in Birmingham. I've ordered through deliveroo twice. And both times the chicken was so crispy, well seasoned and delicious. Even the fries (crinkle and regular) are really good. The garlic sauce is a must. Will definitely order again.

S. M.

Very clean space with a lot of space. Good customer service and more importantly top Arab stuffs in store. Loved it.

A. H.

Lovely takeaway/restaurant experience with great price range.

J. B.

A. Q. N.

Very nice shawarma, large portions and kind staff

S. R.

The food was delicious and service is good. Only thing is the decor is dated and could do with revamp

B. A.

The best Shawrma in the town.It worth to try the broasted chicken as well! Value for money

H. C.

The food here is absolutely wonderful. This is my first visit and it won’t be my last. From the moment you walk in, it’s a lovely experience. The food is stunning and tastes amazing, the team working here are so friendly and the atmosphere is great, I loved the music which all added to the experience. Thank you for a lovely afternoon. Looking round, it’s also a great place to meet up with family and friends and after everything we have been through as a nation, this is a place to eat out, talk, laugh and break bread together. They also make their own amazing bread!! Try it, you will not be disappointed.

A. A.

The best place to go for shawarma delicious nice portions friendly service

M. N. A.

The best ‘Makan’ for Shawerma (chicken & lamb) lovers in Birmingham! Tasty food, friendly staff & spacious restaurant! P.S. They also offers crunchy mouthwatering Falafel for vegan customers.

G. L.

A. H.

Makan is the finest, most sophisticated establishment in all of the West Midlands and - quite possibly - the world at large.

K. O.

Food is good , nice shawarma meat, but I had to take one star off because the staff are grumpy and one star off because you used to do a cheap meal deal that you removed.

K. A.

Best shawarma in Birmingham, go for the lamb one.

R. K.

Good food outlet in a spacious location of the city centre.

I highly recommend this place to anyone travelling to Birmingham 👍👍👍 nice food. Hopefully i will have the same great experience in my future visits :)

P. T.

Never been to this place till today and honestly the best shwarma I have had! Reasonably priced for the amount of food you get and is reflected on how amazing it tastes. Will definitely recommend

A. M.

Really clean and friendly, but really salty food

M. K.

Food is always nice and delicious and staff very polite. Place is very clean with wash facilities for your hands before and after eating. They also bring the food to you unlike some other places which tells you to come and get your food. What I also like when you are sitting down you and see outside the different shops and cafe. So a plus plus plus all round.

M.

Very tasty wraps, great selection of sauces and quickly make telephone orders.

M. M.

Nice place, delicious food and clean I will be back many times good luck

J. S.

Excellent. We tried the chicken schwarma and the broast.the chicken flavour was perfect and no fat. Both were flavoured well although the broast could do with a teeny bit more flavouring. Reasonable peices too. The fries come with a spice powdering which is nice. Very similar to what you get on edgware road in london. Highly reccomend

k. y.

Very tasty food, good presentation and service, I tried Falafel and finally I could taste the original Syrian recipe, the portion was fulfilling. My wife had shawarma and she loved it, well done. Also liked the idea of the name.

M. C.

Fantastic. Amazingly intimate dining experience. I would highly recommend a visit without hesitation. I was a touch disappointed with the drinks pairing though. But not enough to affect the rating I’d give.

E. P.

Beautiful chicken shawarma, nice fries seasoned with spices (different and delightful). Quick service. £3.50 for a big wrap, £5.50 for meal.

S. A. S.

The Shawrama in it it's so good and eame it's the best restaurants I have been to

A. M.

Nom Nom Nom. Amazing Shawarma at a Great Price. Recommend the puffy fluffy bread, it will not disappoint. Succulent pieces of meat and chicken with a spicy kick and fresh Salad. Me and my friend were nom nom noming all the way back to the office. Will be returning soon for some more goddies.

S. R.

Nice clean restaurant/take away. Standard price for lunch in town. The chicken was a bit too garlicky for my liking. Very juicy though.

A. A.

Fresh food, good size portion and good service. Highly recommend

A. S.

THIS HAS TO BE THE BEST SHAWARMA IVE HAD IN BIRMINGHAM!! All staff are friendly and very helpful place is very clean and everything is done freshly prepared. The price is good especially for the meal you get. Definitely coming here again👍👍👍👍👍

Z. H.

Can you name me a place with better fries?...trust me it would be hard very hard! The Shawarma is awesome....that's both chicken and the lamb...and the lamb was succulent unlike some places where it's been chewy and had jelly bits in it....awesome will visit again!

W. R.

One of the best shawarmas in Birmingham It has the perfect take of the chicken shawrma with garlic, just like you are eating it in Arab countries. Try the Arabi plate.
