About Pizza Box Shiney Row
On Westbourne Dr in Houghton Le Spring, Pizza Box Shiney Row is a pizza takeout offering both kebabs and pizzas for collection. Kebabs come with a salad that includes red cabbage, and chips are available as a side. Pizzas can be topped with chilli and garlic sauce for those wanting extra heat. Orders are brought out by a delivery driver, so the menu reaches customers who prefer to stay in rather than collect in person.

Customer Review Summary
The kebab box feast draws the strongest praise, with reviewers pointing to the chicken, kofta, lamb and donner meat together with skin on fries as a standout for a family sharing meal, and one reviewer highlighting the 14" BBQ pulled pork pizza with chilli and garlic sauce. Spicy pizza toppings also get singled out, though one diner notes the toppings tend to slide off the base. Complaints recur around inconsistency: several describe tough or rubbery kebab meat, missing or skimpy salad, and chips that turned tasteless after previously being praised. One reviewer reports being served a shawarma overloaded with garlic sauce and almost no chicken that had to be thrown away. Another recounts a disputed order where a requested tikka kebab arrived as plain grilled chicken, with a replacement eventually sent once a driver became available. Staff are frequently called friendly and delivery prompt, though the phone handling in that dispute was described as uncomfortable and argumentative.

“They do the worst shawarma. I got one full of garlic sauce with a few pieces of chicken. I couldn’t eat it , i had to throw it. Before you buy a shawarma from this takeaway , make sure they make it properly. I will never stop to buy food from this takeaway again.”

“Delivery lass was canny and friendly but other than that - the smell alone was enough to make me want to bin my food. But to receive this was just liften like I don’t get it I ordered 2 weeks ago and was nothing like this! The kebab was lush. Different chips - Other than pizza dough being slightly underdone. But i could survive that … :( refund requested Hi there update as I cannot respond to owner - I actually really value the fact you take time from your business to look at reviews respond to them also - I have noticed this is a trending pattern which is good! I would use yous again as I said the first order was good!, This however isn’t local to me which is sad. But I can see per reviews that there seams to be a changes with suppliers. Is this something that happens often? - as I am new to steam really want to find the quality of food I enjoy .. do you have Facebook. Let me message you? Truth should have contacted first but I also believe reviews are good for this too. And it shows your commitment to fix an issue. Thank you. Top man”

“Takeaway Ordered mixed kebab. Chicken and donner meat was ok. Got some kind of beef burger beer mat thing. All ok but nothing special. Biggest problem. No red cabbage salad? How can you have a kebab without the salad?? Surely it’s non negotiable. If you have to order separately it’s not clear on the menu and anyway it shouldn’t be. Disappointed”
