About Shawarma House
Shawarma House is a shawarma restaurant at 11a Percy St in Newcastle Upon Tyne, across from Eldon Square. The menu centres on shawarma wraps in small and large sizes, filled with a choice of salads and sauces, with mango sauce as one option. A kebab parmo sits alongside the wraps, and doner is also on the menu. The meat is halal, which suits customers who eat halal.

“Had half my doner last night and the other half this morning washed down with a glass of Chapel Down 3 Graces. A perfect pairing.”
- Ali Al Balushi
“Shawarma House offers great value for money with delicious food at very affordable prices. The shawarma was fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking for a budget-friendly meal. The staff were friendly and the service was quick. The only downside was the atmosphere, which felt a bit basic and not as comfortable as it could be. However, the quality of the food more than makes up for it. If you’re looking for tasty shawarma without spending much, this is definitely a place worth visiting.”

“Lovely place. Needed a quick halal lunch to go and was a nice place. Reasonable price for quality of food. Large wrap meal was huge, it could feed probably 2/3 people. Service was extremely quick and staff were very polite and attentive. Clean place. Meat was clean and fresh tasting and not at all greasy or heavy. Was pleasantly surprised by this place, so wanted to recommend. Chips were nice too, medium size and crisp. I really liked the salads used, there were many options. I'd attach a picture but my family ate it all. Maybe next time!”

“I went to this restaurant last night and I ordered 4 pizza there and I had to wait for my order around 40 minutes for that and as well as all over the floor there were plenty of tissue and onions were spread here and there and they don’t even take care of it, I know in busy time cleaning is not done very well but they have to do some cleaning for the hygiene for the customers and food as well. I would suggest to them to focus on hygiene and cleanliness as they are doing on there money. If there is any zero star rating then I definitely choose zero for them.”

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return most for the shawarma wraps, with the small wrap singled out repeatedly as huge, one calling it "absolutely huge" and another describing a small chicken wrap with salad, chilli, garlic and a little mango sauce. The fresh bread and the crisp chips come up close behind, along with a mixed wrap, a kebab parmo and a doner. Several mention a meal deal and low prices, and a few say the food arrived within minutes. Staff are described as friendly, welcoming and polite, and one reviewer says they helped adjust an order to qualify for the meal deal. One reviewer found the atmosphere basic and less comfortable than it could be. The most critical account comes from a reviewer who ordered four pizzas, reports a long wait, and describes tissue and onions all over the floor and a lack of attention to hygiene. Another reviewer, by contrast, calls the place clean and the meat fresh and not greasy. One diner kept half a doner for the next morning and paired it with a glass of English sparkling wine.
