In my younger student days this was he place that we often went to after hitting the clubs, but that was more than 16 years back back then a take away was just a take away. Food There is a good selection available but all meat options are Halal and they are not giving non halal people the choice to choose what they want to eat, not everyone is vegetarian. In the past two years the food here has doubled in price, but the quality in food has gone down hill. Atmosphere This place lacks in any atmosphere, even though there are seats to sit in, it’s not an option that l would choose, food prices here have doubled in two years for no reason even though food quality hasn’t got any better. Overall With the name best kebab you would think that you are getting the best possible ingredients, but in some cases you aren’t like this place where the cheapest cuts are used, sit in us available, but who would like to hang out in a greasy spoon. You will get fed here that is in no doubt, at high prices but certainly not the best quality.

Wasn’t impressed with this establishment at all. Was waiting in the queue, and the man behind the counter skipped over a friend and I to serve some other girls and actually said«f*** them, I’ll serve you pretty girls first» within our earshot. Then when it came to ordering he charged me for a large chips and curry instead of a regular like I asked. When confronted, he put up the argument that I would get more that way, and I had to remind him that I didn’t want more, I wanted what I ordered. When they were ready, I had been given about ¾ of chips my friend got, obviously as an retaliation to my objection. Chips themselves were poor, as was those of my other party members. When looking for a quick fix after a night out, you can’t expect much, but the service in this establishment was atrocious. Glad to say I won’t be back, even if it’s the last place open on a boozy Saturday night.

I use to love this place. I use to eat here, kebab and chips a few times per week. What’s happened to the pricing guys? It’s jumped sky high. You use to be best kebab, but now over priced kebab.

Holy crap, what is a Sarbeni and why is it so dang good? This wee gem of a takeaway is positioned in a dark corner near Queen Street Station and is a must stop basically any time of the day. It stays open nearly all the time and their Sarbeni’s are to die for. Basically a huge piece of nann bread, packed with sauce, cheese, salad, and a hot sauce(any filling, really, all to your liking, of course) then grilled and wrapped up. It’s literally over a foot long of yummy goodness and worth every penny! The place itself is very typical of a takeaway joint, plenty of seating for the weary shopper and the people usually working there are nice. Do yourself a favor, stop by and order a Sarbeni!

I am writing this purely on the grounds that after a few pints and an evening of merriment this place does the best Chicken Pakora I have had in a long time. The chicken is generous in portion, the sauce is nice and spicy and if you go for chips at the same time then the combination is pure heaven to the drunken fool you will be at that time of the night. Next morning your system may not thank you, but that could be the drink. However late night gorging places rarely come better, seedier, rougher, nicer or more fun than here. Top tip, if you are going to take away and it is dark/rainy/3am then try not to walk over the bridge towards Strathclyde University. One night I did that and ended up in something like an Indiana Jones movie moment as a river of rats streamed across the bridge from Queen Street to the Buchanan Galleries car park! Best to walk down and along George Square.

This fulfills one purpose. It is open late, so it will still be around even if you were the last person out of the pub. Worst. Samosa. Everrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Having a strong intrigue with most things Marketing, and in particular puffery when used in promotion of a business/product, I was skeptically drawn to «Best Kebab» in pursuit of a bite to eat. I mean, how could I go wrong with the BEST in terms of Kebabs? I’m all for equality, but not all Kebabs are created equal after all. Perhaps if I had a few drinks, lowering my standards, the kebab would have been the best. As far as my sober savouring standards THEBEST left much to be desired. I’m now contemplating opening a business across the street called Worst Kebabs to steal their customers.

Five years back, as an undergrad at Strathclyde, I would find myself here with friends at 3am after a big night out. This happened one too many times. Obviously it was not the soberest of times, but it was fun times indeed. Fast forward 5 years later, after a long day of MBA lectures and grueling group work, a teammate suggests Best Kebab for dinner. Flashbacks of drunken haziness flooded my mind. With nothing else open at that time at night, I hesitantly said yes. Best Kebab is still the same, 5 years later. Still serving up the same menu of burgers, chips, kebabs, sarbenis, curries, pakoras and pizzas. It was my first sober dining experience in Best Kebab, and it would probably be my last. Touchy tummy struck again… ruh roh. Bottom line: open late night to fulfill your drunken munchies, serves up a multitude of «cuisines», catch businessmen in here at lunch time, and rowdy drunks at night

OK, so you’re not going to have the meal of your life in here. However, chances are, at the time, it will taste like you are. Best Kebab is a 3am establishment through and through, despite being situated in a fairly barren and ominously quiet stretch of town. Much of its popularity stems from its close proximity to Strathclyde and Caledonian University, athough you will find one or two students each night who’ve actually trekked quite some distance to get here. Not quite sure why, as this is undeniably plain, processed fare. As mentioned before, the area can be a little shady although not quite as scary as a visit to the hygenically-challenged Best Kebab toilets. I went once and only just lived to tell the tale.

The very name of this place sets the bar pretty high, declaring itself the vendor of the very best kebabs around. Best Kebab is a firm favourite for dodgy drunks, coming from far and wide for the wonders of a greasy kebab, or in my experience, a sarbeni. A sarbeni is a massive naan bread filled with your choice of meat, a little salad for good measure, and mountains of cheese, which is then rolled up and oven cooked, resulting in a dish the size and weight of a small child. This cheese dripping grease-fest should be eaten carefully and wearing an apron, if at all possible. Only for the drunk, ravenous and strong stomached. Having said that, the bright yellow lights seems to draw me in time and time again, to satisfy my belly’s drunk and disgusting demands.

Somewhat of an institution, Best Kebab has been providing late night revellers with pizzas, mechanically recovered meat and mass brawls for years. Though not exactly pleasant to sit in, it’s worth it to try a sarbeni, which is a sort of rolled up pitta bread with a filling of your choice inside. I’ve also notced it surprisingly busy during the day and have even seen some suits here. The standard here is just that little bit higher than your usual kebab joint so I’d recommend it. It can be quite dodgy very late at night though so tread carefully.

Although Best Kebeb is quite squarely aimed at the 3am market, it is surprisingly busy during the day too. Sober people come in here. For their lunch. And they aren’t that neddy looking either. Well I have only been here once, smashed. I enjoyed it though. I don’t like kebabs, but Stu had one and reassured me that, in fact, it was the best kebab. Although in his state, I could have fed him a raw potato and he would have said it was the best kebab.

Where do students find themselves after a night out? Bed? No. Best Kebab? Yes. This takeaway is something of an enigma. I’d say it sells the best kebab in Glasgow, if it wasn’t such a bad pun. In truth, it simply caters for the usual«I’ll be having some of that» diet — fish, chips, pakora, pizza. It isn’t particularly close to any popular nightspots, but has somehow managed to gain an affinity with the type of people who put traffic cones on their head. Indeed, many insist on ‘completing’ their evening with a visit.

if you’ve consumed more alcohol than you can handle of an evening, then you may want to pop into best kebab and avail yourself of a Sar Beni in order to soak it all up. this monstrous kebab-like creature will fill you right up. warningdo not ingest when sober! the rest of their fayre is fairly standard — definately not the worst chippy in the city centre
