Armenian Kebab House in Blackpool

My negative feedback is only because of the lack of information on Google regarding opening times, I have travelled from Blackburn just for their kebab but see they were closed for holiday but they didn't update it on Google which was disappointing.

Disappointed as I've had kebabs here from the past and they've been tasty, meaty, fresh and full of flavour. Although the white cabbage onions were fresh, not so was the donner meat which was very salty and greasy.

The food is 100percent... Be prepared to wait, it can be busy ,, yet look empty..... its worth the wait in the end

This is the worst kebabs I've ever had 3 large 2 medium kebabs. So so salty and peppery .waited a hour to get served never again.awful

Still among the best Kebabs in Blackpool. Always good and the lamb meat is better than anyone else's. Their portions are smaller than other kebab shops and they are a lot more expensive than other Kebabs. This was okay years ago because the quality made it worth the extra cost, now however they don't give value for money anymore. Portions too small for the higher price. Still delicious, but not good value. To only open for business on Thursday, Friday & Saturday is pretty poor for customers too.

Great food, slow service but worth the wait !!

Lovely grub great it's open again missed it

Awesome 👌 Fantastic food, great staff can see why so many rave about the place. Will definitely visit again next time we are in blackpool

Best kebab in Blackpool tested by Alan Ford

First visit to this Blackpool institution. Recommended by lots of YouTubers. A customer waiting, said that the kebabs are different to others, and they were right. We all had a large Doner kebab. At £7.50 each, they were very good value. The pitta bread was absolutely crammed with Doner meat, topped with onion, cabbage and garlic sauce (That doesn't leave you with garlic breath). Be sure to arrive early to avoid a long wait, as customers are already parked outside before opening time. We would come back again if we were in the area.

We traveled from Stoke because we’d heard this Kebab was amazing. We weren’t disappointed.. It was the best kebab we’ve ever had…The Doner meat was so fresh and unique,the Pitta bread was homemade.. Just simply a 10/10 👌🏻

OMG, How can I sum this up as too many negatives to mention. Bloody rubbish. I don't believe the reviews at all

The best kebab I have tasted ! They keep things simple ,, KEBABS!

Top notch service 👌🏼 We had mixed and chicken &lamb kebabs. Both were unexpectedly large and full of meat and flavour. Succulent pieces of chargrilled lamb and juicy chicken made it a delightful experience. It was worth waiting as demand was enormous.

Great food hot and fresh little wait as expected staff were great and friendly as found this on YouTube from Macmaster and a walk on the Wild side

Tried here for the 1st time ( we're from Birmingham) I had doner meat & chips & wife had lamb shish in pitta. Can honestly say it was by far the best we have tasted 👌👌👌 can deffo recommend & we will be back 😊

Incredible food, great staff, best take away on the Fylde coast by a mile

Everytime we come to Blackpool we HAVE to come here. We have been a customer since 1984 and the kebabs are still as good as they were 40 years ago. Sadly Nurses the original owner passed away last year, but it is still being run by the same family and carrying on his tradition. Yes you may have to wait, but the taste of the kebab is worth it. No factory produced rubbish. Home made. Tasty. Peppery. Spicy. Lovely cabbage, onion and chilli. Nothing but great memories and 5 Stars.

I go here for my weekly kebab fix,absolutely the best ever always good quality guaranteed,although you have to wait a while its well worth it,staff very professional and clean .

Best kebab house by far.. long established and reliable quality and friendly owners.

Fantastic, just wished they would do delivery, I'm disabled now and can't get out much.

Ignore the bad reviews. This place is the best hands down. Yes, there are long waits but doesn't that tell you something about its popularity?! I visit once/twice per month for chicken shish, I wouldn't bother trying anywhere else.

Long wait time, I waited about 40 min on a Saturday evening, but worth it!

The best kebab ever. Only the server has changed in many years. My go to place for a kebab. Never greasy alway tasty

Well worth the money and best food always I travelled from Birmingham just for best kebab in the uk

Best kebabs ever...what more can we say ❤ 2023 update... Still the best kebabs ever....

OMKabab!!!! The best Kabab in the universe!!!!!!

Had a chicken special last night great quality and very tasty first visit won't be the last.

Returned after a year’s absence still the same brilliance best kebabs anywhere no doubt about it

Food was average no different from any other kebab house portions are to small I was still Hungry after wait is to long for food and to expensive I won't be coming back here again

Chips were stuck together . Kebab not very advertising.very disappointing perhaps it was a bad day.

Around Great, staff brilliant quick and smiling taking your orders, Food best kebabs in Blackpool.

Amazing fresh home made kebab... I'm not a salad lover so the cabbage and onion is perfect for me.. get the chicken kebab, comes with skewered onions which are to die for (and a bit of donna on top) 2 chilli 2 garlic for me .

Bad stomach for 2 days, probably the sauce, I won't not go again. Very disappointed. The sauce was chilli with garlic.

Lived in Blackpool for nearly 15 years now and only tried Armenian kebab for the first time tonight. It's always had a brilliant reputation amongst the locals but they only accept cash and are not on any easily accessible websites like Just Eat, Foodhub and Blackpool Eats hence why I've always chosen the easy option of ordering to my door. I can't believe I've been missing out on this place for so long, simply the best kebab I've ever had, not just in Blackpool (I've tried and ate many being the chubby lad I am) just wow. Lovely guys behind the counter excellent customer service waited 20 minutes to get served which is what you want with everything being cooked fresh and it being busy, the vast majority of customers being local with a long line of cars parked along the street waiting licking their lips in anticipation. Honestly, it's that good 👍

Went yesterday for the first time in over 25 years what a disappointment. I don’t know what was wrong with the donner meat but was flavourless bland and greasy. As for the chicken and shish the onions overpowered the meat making it that all you tasted was the onion. All in all wasted a full kebab each

Had my 1st kebab here over 30 years ago, and it is still the best kebab you can get in Blackpool. ❤️

Had the chicken special. Chicken kebab and donner. Generally don’t do donner meat but I think it’s a test of a place. Excellent. It’s a new ‘Armenian’ to me and the salad is what I would describe as plain but still good. the onion is fabulous, lightly chargrilled. The bread was ‘bready’😊 I had a touch of mint and garlic Mayo sauce. I’d prefer a little more chicken but I will order it again. Soon. Service as stated and if it had a ‘sit in’ I’m sure they’d do 5 star. Some comments about ‘greasy’, I dont agree. The donner was moist, there’s a difference. Happy to have found a go to takeaway. Dont forget they’re cash only. The photos have a Coke bottle for scale as some have commented on size. (I’ve edited some typos since posting originally).

Absolutely superb kebabs the best I've ever had.and the chips are fantastic.

Great kebabs. Long wait every time, but worth it

Nothing special. Kebab was just average

Food great people very friendly

Got a kebab for my son and me, both very happy with the food as usual

Kebab horrendously expensive food horrible and they kept you waiting

Genuine, authentic homemade doner meat. None of that nasty pre made cash and carry or catering suppliers stuff the majority of places use. Arguably the best kebab shop in town by a long way. FYI, the 🌶 sauce is pretty hot....enjoy

Best kebabs ever. Been going for 30+ years and never been disappointed

Overrated. Lamb and chicken meat was OK. But the portion sizes for the price felt like id been robbed. £7+ for one small pitta bread with meat in and even that wasn't full. Disappointed is an understatement.

Never been but my friend was itching for a kebab and we were not disappointed. Expected it to be a greasy mess but surprisingly it wasn't and stood out compared to other takeaways.

Best mixed kebab ive ever eaten the donor meat is amazing aswell as the shish... plenty of sauce to go with the cabbage and onions.. Only thing ya have to wait but its worth every minute

The worst takeaway I’ve ever ever encountered. Mixed kebab had 3 pieces of small burnt lamb and a ton of greasy doner meat. Will never ever order again. Plus it cost more than I could ever of imagined. Absolutely disgusting 🤮

Just ordered 3 kebabs tonight as lots of people said it’s SO good. My experience was nothing like good, not even ok. The lamb special included 4 burned pieces of lamb and tons of greasy doner. See the pictures below 👇 It wasn’t tasty and for the value is well overpriced. I don’t think I would go back again!

Visited the Kebab house twice last week when down in Blackpool, used to stay in Blackpool, and went to the Armenian Kebab house regularly. Kebabs have not changed over the years. Still the best kebabs I've tasted. Would recommend this place for kebabs. Yes you may have to wait if busy, but we'll worth the wait.

It was pretty decent. I don't usually eat kebabs but the glowing reviews tempted me in after a hospital appointment round the corner. I had a chicken shish and my husband had a large doner. My kebab was delicious although it was a bit disappointing not being offered any chillies or other salad or sides to go with it. It comes with cabbage and fried onion which is nice but it's a bit bland really. They sell fries but I would rather have more salad or veg. And I was hoping for a chicken shawarma but alas they don't do them. My husband's large doner was good, so I'm told. I had a small piece of the meat and was pleasantly surprised at how nice it was. Normally doner meat is vile to me but this was flavourful and tasted of great lamb. Again slightly let down by the lack of chillies or any contrasting flavours. We only had to wait 10 minutes. I'd be horribly disappointed waiting 40 minutes like other reviewers!

Absolutely love this place been a customer since 1978 & it's never faltered our grandkids stay on a Saturday & the first thing they ask is can we have a kebab granddad !! Best meat you will ever taste made on site & the best homemade chilli sauce & homemade mint sauce ever ! It's a real treat Try it you won't be sorry !!! 1/10/22 Still a loyl customer just had an extra large donner with cabbage onions 5 chilli & 6 mint & as always it was off the scale, ps enough left for a good lunch tomorrow Bonus !!

The Armenian just never lets you down! The best chicken kebab I’ve ever tasted. Nothing wasted!

By far the best Donner kebab I’ve ever had, very busy shop but worth the wait, I will have one every time I’m in blackpool

£7.50 for a half tray of meat (even though it's advertised as tray of meat), the meat was nice but no tubs for sauce so I had to put it on the meat.

All these great reviews... I thought it was a little blaaa. Nothing to get excited about

I went here today I got a chicken kebab and donner kebab when I got to my car and opened them there was three pieces of chicken on one !!! and a nice dirty hair on the donner !!!! never again I’ll stick to ahmets in Lytham !!! What a waste of money and time yuk !

To finish off a great day, we're having and amazing kebab. As mentioned on #gogglebox You can't find a better kebab in the UK, take my word

Absolutely amazing meat, great service. If you go in peak times there’s a bit of a wait but I’m happy to wait for good food. Service is always amazing. Family run business. Traditional kebabs x

First time iv had a Armenian kabab and it was by far the best kabab iv ever tasted i will defo be returning for another kabab if you have not tryed one you dont know what your missing and will never taste a kabab like it

Amazing kebab , haven't been for ages but will be back ASAP

Waited nearly a hour for food, large kebab,dry onions and cabbage, where's the rest of salad, clearly said on front of shop 30 mins wait,employ more staff,never again, wouldn't wait that long in a restaurant, greedy#*#"##

Tiny overpriced portions horrible chips fatty meat garlic Mayo is disgusting absolute waste of money

Great food as always. Waiting outside not great.

Was busy but only wanted about 15 mins was amazing food as always

Great food but don't just show up at the shop, waits can be upto an hour

Wow!!! Drove from Northampton for this, wasn't disappointed, was so impressed, me and my husband sold our French bulldog for £40 so we could take 4 more kebabs back home with us....

One of the best kebabs I have ever eaten! There is never any grease in the pitta bread, just quality food, you must try one.

Friendly service excellent food

Always the best 10/10 old school kebab not like any other kebab meat

The Armenian has been constantly Serving Great food for the last 25 years that I have known it , my weekend treat is always the Mixed Kebab , with 2 spoons of mint sauce in the middle , topped with 2 spoons of garlic sauce on top , just lush..

Heard the legend of this place for years. Never actually believed it existed until one dark wintry night there it was faintly glowing like a beacon in the distance. Awesome Kebeb. They certainly know how to eat meat in Armenia.

Authentic and simple. Collection only and usually a queue for a reason.

Best kebab shop in Blackpool , staff are lovely

Always the best. Been going here since I was 17. I'm now 38 so had to go and see the owners when I came up for the week

Best kebab iv had worth the money and the waiting... definitely found my place to go

Got to be the best kebabs around

The best kebabs around , I travel from Fleetwood and always amazing , I really don’t mind waiting 30 - 40 mins it just shows it’s a great place if it’s busy, mixed lamb is amazing and well Worth the £9, park up on the seafront and get stuck in

Absolutely fantastic place good quality food amazing service

Sometimes long queues, is it worth it? Yes and No, if you want extra special succulent, tasty meat you might be disappointed, if you just want an above average decent kebab then try it.

Very tasty kebabs. I'll admit I've had cheaper and just as good from elsewhere but it was still worth what I paid

I was reccomended to go from the Corona Hotel's owners. Delicious kebabs.

Best kebabs I’ve ever had. No comparison to other kebabs. Very filling and good value. Its reputation in Blackpool is very well deserved

Best kebab house by far, and that's coming from somebody who never ate kebabs before I was introduced to this place xx

Kebabs are good... Chips aren't! A+

If you guys want a propper kebab. Definitely worth the mileage to get there. Great for young and old. Clean tidy well organised. To top it .as in kebabs. Definitely the best.

Apart from a 45min wait looking forward to enjoying my food ,got home ,sat down only to find that kebabs wasn't what the hype is about. Wont be returning or recommending to anyone.🤮👺👎

Nice kebab. Good chips. Offer of a free sample of Donna meat. Very friendly. Wait can be very long especially when busy, no way of ordering ahead and just picking up. Cash only

Our first time here last night and it won’t be our last. It is without a doubt the tastiest kebab meat we’ve ever tried. Worth the wait and served hot and fresh. Thank you.

Friend recommended.....plain and bland , chewy & dry . One of the worst kebabs I've had !!

Fantastic kebab....best in Blackpool

Wouldn't go anywhere else for a kebab😍 amazing!!

Been going here over 25 years when visiting relatives and never fails great food and service

Got a tip from an old work mate to give it a try, that was 3 years ago. this really is the best donner meat that i have ever had. i have donner meat and chips, just superb. the staff are great and the owners are an old fashioned couple, service is superb. i go regularly. give it a try, you will love it

Not somewhere I manage to get to often. Was so disappointed with the kebab, meat was dry & a bit spicy. Won't be going back sorry.

OMG OF YOU ARE IN BLACKPOOL THIS IS THE KERBAB YOU WANT IT'S WHERE THE LOCALS GO OFF THE BEATEN TRACK IT'S WHERE KERBAS ARE BORN 😂

40 minute wait for one of the blandest tasting kebabs .

It came highly recommended We felt let down.. They didn't have any chicken left so couldn't have mixed kebab Placed an order without cabbage or onions it arrived with both.. The plus side was that the meat tasted good and wasn't greasy .. I doubt if I would pay £11 again for the kebab that was not of top quality...
