About Pizza Box Shiney Row
Pizza Box Shiney Row is a pizza takeout in Houghton Le Spring, at 34 Westbourne Dr. The menu runs beyond pizza into kebabs, with a kebab box feast of chicken, kofta, lamb and donner meat. Kebabs come with a salad. Two pizzas carry the kebab-shop theme onto the base, one topped with shawarma and one with BBQ pulled pork. Spicy pizzas are topped with chilli and jalapeños. Chips are skin-on fries.

Customer Review Summary
Kebabs draw the most comments, and reviewers split sharply on them. Praise centers on the kebab box feast with chicken, kofta, lamb and donner meat, skin-on chips called tasty, and a delivered mixed kebab and chicken kebab described as well prepared and flavorful. Close behind are the pizzas. One reviewer got a full jar's worth of chilli and jalapeños on a spicy pizza, and another called the BBQ pulled pork pizza and the chilli and garlic sauces fantastic, though toppings tend to slide off the base. The complaints are nearly as frequent. Two reviewers describe kebabs arriving without the red cabbage salad, others report tough, rubbery meat and tasteless chips, and one got a shawarma that was mostly garlic sauce with a few pieces of chicken. One reviewer received grilled chicken instead of tikka, along with the wrong chips and soggy kebabs. Staff and drivers are repeatedly called friendly, and in that case a replacement tikka kebab and the missing salad were eventually delivered, though the tikka tasted intensely of salt and vinegar.

“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”
