Quick info
About The Ottoman Doner® - Docklands
The Ottoman Doner® - Docklands is a kebab shop in London at 235 E India Dock Rd, open daily. The doner is served as chicken or lamb with either chips or rice, and sauces such as orange chilli are poured over the meat. Salad comes with it and can be requested in a separate container. The menu goes beyond the doner, adding a tower burger and a trilece dessert, so the same order can cover a main and something sweet. Canned and soft drinks are available to go with the food. Orders are handed over in black paper bags with cutlery included. The kitchen is busy with a steady flow of orders, and a wait is usual at peak times.

Customer Review Summary
The main complaints concern consistency. One reviewer says a rice and meat box was so drowned in sauce that the meat and bulgur were unrecognisable. Another got chips with few pieces of chicken. A third describes a delivery bag arriving unsealed with an open chip bag, salty chips and nuggets that tasted of fish. One reviewer calls the staff tough, while another praises friendly staff, and one parent was handed a free Capri-Sun for their daughter on a hot day.

“I recently visited Ottoman Doner in Poplar and was really impressed with the food. The doner is always fresh, well-prepared, and tastes fantastic. One thing I like is that you can choose between rice or chips with your meal, which gives you some flexibility depending on what you're in the mood for. The sauces are amazing and add plenty of flavour to the meal. The food feels fresh, healthy, and is clearly made with quality ingredients. Every bite was enjoyable, and it's easy to see why this place has built a good reputation. The only slight downside is that the prices are a little on the expensive side compared to some other local doner shops. Overall, Ottoman Doner is an excellent choice if you're looking for fresh, healthy, and delicious food on the go. Highly recommended!”

“Its annoying cos everytime i try order it picks this location. I preffer the whitechapel one 100% more. This 1 is deaadd nothing like the whitechapel one. Ive ordered many times from here thinking it was just a one off bad quality but its everytime. I dont know what it is but its not nice like whitechapel. The doner taste different and chips too. Not feeling it”

“An absolute disappointment. I remember when TOD first opened. Huge portions, high quality lamb and chicken doner. They competed with The German Doner kebab and beat them in every aspect...fast forward a few years, they're a mere shell of their former selves, and I can't believe I'm saying this...but the german doner is better (and I don't even like them). The portions are tiny now. The hefty box you previously got has been shrunk drastically, thus resulting in barely any meat. The prices have also risen. I understand inflation has hurt businesses and customers alike, but why didn't you keep the portions the same instead of decreasing the portion size AND increasing the price. Maybe stop spending all that extra money on your fancy black paper bags & cutlery? They've also changed their fries. Its basically mechanically processed potato mash fries instead of proper chips. The doner is no longe juicy..dry and stale now.”

“Next time you feel like literally throwing loads of sauce over the meat(could not identify the meat&bulgur anymore) Looked like food was thrown in that box and then 2L of sauce to drawn everything. Wth people?! I don’t care you have loads of orders, if you’re not able to maintain quality while busy, then you get 1 star. Byeeee”
