Quick info
About Jimmys Kebabs
Jimmys Kebabs is a fast food restaurant in Bedford, run from a food truck that cooks to order and is the only food option in Cranfield in the evening. The menu centres on doner meat kebabs and chicken wraps, with chicken and beef burgers and chips alongside, and cans to drink. Chili sauce and other sauces are on offer, and salad can be added to an order. Because each order is cooked when placed, a wait is possible when others are ahead, and customers can phone ahead to collect. The truck is open daily, and dogs are welcome. A 45-minute short stay car park and some street parking sit close by, near the Coop.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often come back for the kebab, especially the doner and chicken meat, with a chicken wrap eaten almost weekly through a master's degree and a roughly football-sized kebab among the details. Chips follow close behind, one reviewer calling them the most perfectly crispy of their life, while the chicken and beef burgers and a falafel wrap also get mentions. The hot chili sauce is called perfect, and portions are described as huge and filling, one saying it keeps them full for 12 hours. Students at Cranfield repeatedly point out that it is the only place to buy food there after 5 pm, which makes it a lifeline for late-night study. Service is described as friendly and generous. The one downside raised is that it is a food truck, so it is cold in winter, and another notes a short wait because orders are cooked fresh. One graduate returned a year later and the server remembered both them and their order.

“Had the chicken wrap almost once a week from here throughout my master's, and the food and service were consistently amazing! Came back a year later for my grad, and the guy remembered me and my order! Love this place :)”

“The best kebab in the UK! I couldn’t find more delicious doner meat anywhere else than at Jimmys. To add more flavor and spice, I always use Dua Belibis chili sauce, which you can find on Amazon. Perfect!”

“We dropped by before working a nightshift as others had recommeneded it. Situated on the street close to the Coop , short stay car park (45 mins) and some street parking. Good selection of options including kebabs, wraps, chips, burgers and cans. We had an order of chicken meat and chips(£9) and a falafel wrap (£6)There was a little bit of a wait due to another customer in front and the order being cooked to order. Portion sizes were great, and lots of sauces and salad being added. The chap serving was really friendly. Really tasty and filling.”
