About AK Kebab House
AK Kebab House runs as a kebab shop and takeaway on Heathfield Road in Birmingham, taking orders at the counter with no bookings. Doner is the draw here, chicken or mixed, served in naan bread or alongside fries. The wider menu covers fast food staples, with chicken and chips and fried chicken among the regular orders, and fish and chips listed with a large portion option. Most of the trade goes out the door for eating at home or elsewhere, and the doors open daily. Space inside for people waiting is limited, and the shop fills up at peak times. Payment was cash only for a long stretch, and debit cards are now accepted, though some days still run on cash alone, so it helps to bring some with you.

Customer Review Summary
Doner draws the most praise, from a mixed doner meat in naan or with fries to a chicken donner one reviewer ranks among the best around. Fish and chips and chicken and chips also have fans, who call the food tasty with decent portions, and one calls it the best chippy in the area. Opinion on the fried chicken is split. One reviewer calls the chicken and chips nasty, another says the chips tasted off and threw away two meals, and a third prefers the chicken from a shop down the road. Service is the most repeated complaint. Reviewers describe young, inexperienced staff and food that comes out burnt, overcooked or undercooked depending on who is cooking. One order was passed between three staff and ended in an overcharge. Another customer asking for freshly cut doner was told to go without. Several note rising prices and shrinking portions. One reviewer reports an upset stomach hours after eating niblets and sausage. One reviewer advises double checking the order before leaving.

“Great food great service and staff very friendly ❤️”

“my order was passed between three different staff members, none of whom seemed to know what the others were doing. This lack of communication resulted in me being overcharged. When I asked them to double-check the total, the staff were unprofessional and dismissive of my concerns. To make matters worse, the food quality was very poor. I would not recommend this place due to the chaotic management and the quality of the meal."”

“I'm guessing if you're not a local / regular to this place you really won't be able to stomach it! I got myself a portion of niblets and sausage for a quick bit as I was passing through. 2 hours later got the runs. Definitely not going there again, ever!”
