“Visited kebabish after a very long time and couldn't fault the food. Still amazing food, perfectly cooked and great taste. We ordered chapli Kebab, malai boti, nihari and king prawn curry. Great atmosphere n lovely service 👏 …”

“While driving back to London from the Easter weekend we stopped off in Blackburn for a break. We headed to KO Blackburn, it was very busy, but we were seated pretty quick. Food and service was top notch, chicken seekh kebabs, king prawn karahi & chicken curry were all delicious. The food was so good we took what was left & ordered more for family back in London. As a Londoner I can honestly say that authentic Pakistani food is much better in the North & KO Blackburn proves my point.”

“Kebabish Original is consistently good every time! KO stands for knockout food, service and great atmosphere. From the minute you walk in, you are met by a friendly host who makes sure you get a table as soon as possible. The food is amazing with great service. Great evening out ♥️”

“We had a lovely meal. Arif and his team looked after us very well and the food was gorgeous. He even remembered my friend coming in with a group of uni students 67 years ago :-) …”

“I really enjoyed the lamb shank. However, I ordered it spicy and it wasn't that spicy. We both liked that it was fully halal. My wife ordered the butter chicken and she thought that it was one of the best examples of the dish that she has had.”
