About La Jawaab
On Gibbet St in Halifax, La Jawaab is a fast food restaurant serving jacket potatoes, chicken steak and chips, wraps, and sandwiches. The jacket potato with cheese and beans is a recurring order among the menu's simpler options. Orders are taken on a walk-in basis, with no reservations involved. The restaurant opens daily, giving the surrounding area a consistent option throughout the week. The format keeps things straightforward, with food prepared to order from a compact, familiar menu rather than a wide-ranging one. Customers can stop in at various points during the day without needing to plan ahead, and the daily schedule means the shop does not close for a particular day each week the way some comparable spots on the street might.

“Really disappointed with our order. This used to be one of our favourite takeaways, but the quality has gone downhill so much. …”

“I’ve ordered from this takeaway several times now, and every visit has been a pleasure. A big thank you to Omar who always serves with a smile, is super friendly, and makes sure every order is correct and ready on time. They’re really helpful if you have questions about the menu or want recommendations, and always go the extra mile to make customers feel welcome. The food is consistently fresh, tasty, and well-prepared — great portion sizes too. It’s clear they take pride in what they do. Highly recommend this place, and I’ll definitely be coming back again!”

“Normally they do fantastic food and portion sizes. My favourite is the jacket potato, cheese and beans but today when I got it. All the potatoes barely had any beans and cheese on them. That oozing overflow in the container which marks it …”

“I have been a regular customer of this food place for many years and have always enjoyed their tasty food at reasonable prices. They offer a variety of options like Jacket Potatoes, Chicken Steak & Chips, Wraps, Sandwiches, and more. The staff, for the most part, are friendly and provide great service. However, one staff member can be extremely rude, which can be quite off-putting. I have experienced this firsthand, with them questioning why I was ordering at certain times and lying about the availability of tubs for sauces. It's a shame that such behavior exists as it spoils the experience of visiting this place. Despite this, I would still recommend trying their delicious food, but be aware of the rude staff member.”
