Quick info
About AA CHARCOAL GRILL
On Lewes Rd in Brighton, AA Charcoal Grill is a kebab shop serving doner kebabs, wraps and burgers, plus chicken wings and chip and meat kebabs. Chicken and lamb doner and chicken shish sit alongside cheeseburger meals on the menu. The kitchen makes its own chilli sauce, and the counter staff ask whether pickled peppers should go on the order. Orders are placed on a walk-in basis, with no reservations, and chips come folded into the bag rather than boxed separately. Delivery runs through the Just Eat app for those not collecting in person. Dogs are welcome on site.

Customer Review Summary
The complaints centre on order accuracy and service. One reviewer got a chicken doner with no chips instead of a chip and meat kebab, then says the phone was put down on them rudely. Another received six nuggets and a single chip against a listing for nuggets, chips and a drink. A diner describes dry, unsalted chips with no sauce and a cold, tasteless doner wrap, calling the prices high. One reviewer reports finding mould on cheesy chips, and says staff picked it out and offered extra cheese rather than remaking the dish.

“This was our first time of ordering food from this company. It was early hours (12.30am) & my usual take aways were no longer delivering. The food arrived fairly quickly and was absolutely delicious. Ordered 2 kebabs and a cheese burger meal and all of the food was fantastic. The kebabs (chicken & lamb) were lovely, good quality meat, salad, etc and the burger was also really great. The size of the kebabs were way bigger than I expected (ordered small) and the price was very reasonable. When delivery was less than £1 that just topped it off. Finally the driver was friendly and very polite. What more can I say, we will definitely be ordering again and we are very happy customers. Highly recommend.”

“Ordered chip and meat kebab and got a chicken doner and no chips then when I called to tell them they said I’d ordered the chicken kebab when I know full well I didn’t say that and then they put the phone down and was really rude about it! Won’t be ordering from here again gone downhill and the man doing the orders over the phone is super Rude! Terrible service…”

“I recently visited AA Charcoal grill kebab shop and was thoroughly impressed with the quality of the food. Every ingredient tasted fresh, from the crisp, vibrant vegetables to the perfectly seasoned and grilled meats particularlythe chicken shish. You can truly taste the difference that fresh ingredients make, and it elevates their dishes far above the standard fast-food experience. Highly recommended for anyone craving a fresh and flavorful meal!”

“Popped into AA Charcoal Grill and was really impressed. The quality of the food was spot on, and they definitely don't skimp on the portion sizes—you get a proper amount for what you pay. Really tasty, good value, and hit the spot perfectly. Will definitely be coming back again.”
