Quick info
About Sammys Pizza & Kebab House
Sammys Pizza & Kebab House is a kebab shop in Runcorn on Church St, where the menu runs from hand-stretched pizzas to kebabs. The pizza side includes a deep dish BBQ pizza and a calzone, so the kitchen covers more than the standard round pie. On the kebab side, the donner comes folded, with mayo and hot sauce. Chicken burger meals, wings and cheesy chips fill out the rest of the menu for anyone who wants something beyond pizza or kebab. The shop takes walk-ins, so there is no need to arrange anything ahead. Orders can also be placed through the website, and PayPal is accepted there.

Customer Review Summary
Pizza draws the warmest praise. One reviewer calls the deep dish bbq the best of the bbq pizzas tried locally, and another describes a pizza full of toppings that was hard to finish. Close behind are the half-pound cheeseburger and the chicken wings, which one reviewer prefers to the strips. One diner also calls the donner kebab soft and tender with plenty of mayo and hot sauce, and another praises the soft garlic bread with cheese. Opinion splits sharply, though. Critics describe a watery calzone, donner meat with no flavour, bland chicken burger meals, and shish kebabs with leathery meat that two diners binned after a couple of mouthfuls. Another reviewer reports a wrong order, stale cheesy chips, toppings that never arrived and a hair inside a folded donner, and one says the food was shocking on a second visit. Delivery and service earn steadier approval, with food arriving hot, a driver bringing an order to a top-floor flat door, and a mistaken order handled well. One family received a free kids meal.

“I give 5 stars as the food has always been good. I normally get the 1/2 burger and some various chicken items. (The wings are nicer than the strips). Also the CUSTOMER SERVICE has always been on point. Even though they did get part of my order wrong I always rate how people deal with the issue and they were great.”

“Garbage food, I haven't ordered here in about 10 years an I never will again Sammys is awfull in every possible way an its massively overpriced, how can you get a calzone so wrong?, it tasted like a watery sloppy mess , the donner meat had zero flavour and there was no tomato puree base,the chicken burger meals were again completely bland and the slice of cheese on it was vile, id rate it a 3/10, I wouldn't eat from here again even if I was absolutely bladdered an starving i'd rather have beans on toast, how in the world is this place still open are people actually spending their hard earned money here?, its bottom of the barrel food 🫣🤣”

“I am a repeat customer anyway, but my order on 23/04/24/was honestly the best meal I have ever had from here, or any other takeaway. The meat on the Donner Kebab was so soft and tender, no gristle and not burned or crispy anywhere. Plenty of mayo and hot sauce which is perfect 'cos I usually find there isn't usually enough. Honestly THE best Kebab I've ever had. The Garlic Bread w/ Cheese was lovely and soft, perfectly cooked and very tasty.”
