Having moved to the London Road area nearly a year ago now I’ve tried 4 different local kebab shops but decided to try somewhere new today and was very pleasantly surprised. Went for the lamb shish grill with rice and I must say the lamb was lovingly cooked and nicely seasoned too and not completely overdone like at most places. I’ll ask for more salad and less rice next time but I think I’ve found my new favourite. The flatbread was delicious too. Thanks and see you again very soon!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Delicious food and great service! I had a fantastic experience at City Kebab in Brighton. The food was fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. The staff were friendly and quick, and the place was clean and welcoming. Definitely one of the best kebab spots in town—highly recommended!

I added this to Google photos because it is the next great Halal restaurant after I found Alush closed for the day when we visited Brighton. It is a walking distance from the main Brighton train station. 🍚 The staff was polite & accommodating to a noisy group like ours! Seating inside and outside is about 4 tables that fits about 16 individuals. Despite its size, there is a range of choices from fried chicken & fries, falafel, to a range of grilled chicken & meat kebab. The size is big even for small-sized orders!🌯There is white & yellow rice, try ordering rice & top it up with chicken or meat kebab, veggies & your choice of sauce! 🍚 I highly recommend it & the prices are low compared to similar but way less tasty & clean! Enjoy your meal 🥙

Hands down value for money. My personal fav is the lamb doner kebab which is very filling and has a side of fries and a coke free. The spice levels can be adjusted. Really nice folks running the show. If you are a student, you get a student discount.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Proper Kebab Spot – PhD Approved! As someone with a PhD from the University of Cambridge (yes, like Stormzy – big up the scholars!), I’ve spent years dissecting complex theories, but nothing prepared me for the perfect balance of flavour and satisfaction that City Kebabs delivers. The meat? Juicy and seasoned like they’ve unlocked the secret formula. The chips? Crispy, golden, and just the right level of salt. And the Chillli sauce? A masterpiece worthy of peer review. Whether you’re rolling out of a lecture or a late-night pub (like the #GreatEastern), this place hits the spot. Affordable, friendly, and consistently top-tier. You don’t need a doctorate to know good food – but I’ve got one, and I’m telling you: City Kebabs is elite. Highly recommended. Would cite again Al Fresco dining on a Monday night...

City Kebab truly excels in delivering a delightful culinary experience, especially with their lamb doner and chicken shawarma chips. The lamb doner is a standout, featuring tender, juicy meat that's perfectly seasoned and wrapped in warm pita, topped with fresh veggies and zesty sauces. It's a flavorful treat that leaves you wanting more! The chicken shawarma chips are a fantastic addition, combining crispy fries with savory chicken shawarma. The mix of flavors and textures is simply irresistible, making it a great choice for sharing or indulging on your own. Furthermore, the lamb shish and chicken shish are equally impressive. Both dishes are grilled to perfection, showcasing the rich flavors of marinated meat that’s juicy and tender. The wings are another highlight, expertly cooked with just the right amount of seasoning, making them a perfect appetizer or snack. The staff at City Kebab enhance the experience with their exceptional service. They are friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu, ready to offer recommendations and ensure your meal is just right. Overall, City Kebab is a fantastic spot for anyone craving delicious Middle Eastern dishes, with an inviting atmosphere and outstanding service!

Honestly an amazing experience! Have been here many times and enjoyed it even more by each visit. Last I came here I tucked into a juicy student meal made by the young boss man himself (shoutout Roel). Left the shop feeling Invincible while listening to Ike by Don Xhoni! If you need a reliable, cheap and filling meal with a great staff team and atmosphere, City Kebab is all you need. 11/10 (Extra point for Roel)

A nice small place to get a kebab, wraps and burgers. The food is overall really good and the staff is also very kind. I recommend the mixed meat kebab if you a kebab fan.
