About UK Shawarma
On Carter's Grn in West Bromwich, UK Shawarma is a kebab shop where every meal starts with a complimentary lentil soup before the mains arrive. The menu runs from lamb kofte to shawarma and grilled fish, with family platters sized for sharing among a few people. Mango chutney is offered alongside grill dishes, and food is brought to the table rather than collected at a counter. Shawarma ordered for takeaway comes wrapped in nan, though the wrapping paper can stick to the sandwich. The shop takes walk-ins, with no reservation process in place. Between the soup starter, the shared platters, and the range of grilled options, the menu suits both a quick solo order and a larger group meal picked up or eaten on site.

Customer Review Summary
Complaints recur too. One reviewer says a recent visit after refurbishment brought smaller wraps and poorer meat quality for the same price. Others describe order mix ups, including chicken wraps arriving as lamb with requested mayo and spicy mayo left out, and one diner reports a kebab that came raw and unfried. A long time customer says they were overcharged and found the response to their complaint poor, ending their visits. A few also note takeaway wrap paper sticking to the nan and occasional oiliness.

“I’ve been a customer for about four years and have never had a problem until today. I was overcharged, and when I raised the issue, the customer service was very poor. It’s disappointing to lose the trust of a loyal customer over something that could have been handled properly. The food is still delicious, but because of the way I was treated, I won’t be returning.”

“Just been to uk shawarma after it had apparently been closed for several weeks for refurbishment, the portion have become smaller the wraps and the meat quality has become poor. Was a really nice food spot however have to change my mind from the most recent visit. I don't mind paying more for the quality and portion size but it's no good cutting corners getting cheaper meat and smaller portions for the same price .”

“I ordered two chicken wraps, but instead they packed two lamb wraps. The taste was really bad, and the smell was unpleasant. I also asked for mayo and spicy mayo, but neither was added, making the wraps very dry and hard to eat. Overall, it was a complete waste of money and a very disappointing experience. Never eating from here again”

“Now this is what I'm talking about. Served with care and attention from the moment you walk in. Food bought to the table. Complimentary lentil soup given which is a nice warm starter to get your taste buds going. The portions are excellent and food is really nice and tasty full of flavour. I did visit twice over 2 days as I enjoyed it so much. Would go back again! Thank you.”
