Baban's Naan in Hackney

Great value, tasty and quick. Although you may have to queue

It is ok, not something that social media raved on about, I'm always for small business but when something is decent doesn't mean I will exaggerate my experience, fresh naan is amazing on its own but when shop bought naan is used in some of the naan, it's diminishing to the business, I have had fresh naan from the tandoor from this place and was happy, the kibbeh was OK lacked flavour, garlic naan is a disappointment, using garlic butter is not garlic naan, the chilli naan using chilli sauce, the falafel was lovely, zaatar naan was an experience worth having, sesame naan has a lovely flavour and cheese naan is asking for a heart attack especially when it's addictive, I try and be fair, good food would be met with good review and something mediocre will be met same, I am to give a fair and unbiased reviews, I want people who read this review be met with honesty so they decide whether that trip is worth making, my advice is, if you are in the area go in, but if you are going out your way to make a special visit then I would suggest you have an itinerary of other venues to try in the area too

I had the Kurdish wrap with all the salad and sauces and it was delicious. The service was very quick, and it was excellent value for money. I’ll be back next time I’m in the area for an Arsenal match.

Fantastic food and service. 10/10.

Yum! The naan is so fresh and delicious, I mixed falafel and mince into one wrap and each end was as delicious as the other!

Amazing wraps, would recommend the chicken kuba wrap

Very confused by the ratings at this place. It’s not good.

I tried their falafel and I was left speechless . Extremely fresh naan bread as well as falafel , all made from the scratch the minute I placed my order . Reasonable prices too . I'm definitely going back !

Highly recommend The Falafel Naan - Superb

These guys are the BEST thing there in and around Finsbury Park! Also they charge not much and are very fast! Would go for it every day if I get around!

Love getting some naan to take home. The falafel wraps are delicious too. So nice to watch them make it in the oven. A real gem for the neighbourhood!

Affordable and excellent bread.

Absolutely sensational. Naan - light and fluffy; falafel - crispy and beautifully spiced; sauces - sweet and tangy. Altogether, a wonderful meal.

Got the kebab wrap and it was killer for 5.50. Had this mustardy, curry sauce that was delicious. Loads of very cheeky homemade naans. They know what they're doing better than i ever will

I come every time I'm in the area. The food is amazing and staff are always so kind! I can't recommend enough!

Delicious fresh naans. Very cheap and fast! Lunch sorted for 2 people for 5 pounds. We order zaatar, garlic and peshwari naans and ate them warm in Finsbury park. They don't do any small pots of houmous which is a shame, so we got some from the nearby Sainsbury's.

Very cool place, food is authentic, tasty, and pricing is great. Staff are friendly, switched-on, and polite. A standard other local take-away places should follow!

Fantastic Kurdish kebab and a drink (Aryan) for only £6! These guys make over 1000 wraps a day (they make the naan fresh in front of you) and even at the end of the day, they're still super friendly and kind :) spas!!

I have been coming here for about a decade and seen it grow from a tiny tandoori oven and a counter to a brilliant bustling take away food service. The naans are sooo good. I love getting a sesame naan drizzled in chilli sauce for my walk home whenever I'm in the area.

Great taste and reasonable prices. The shop is small but their Naan's are amazing. I tried Kurdish kebab wrap 🌯. The fresh and hot naan bread was delicious 😋 and their salad were great.

This is takeaway food that I will eat at 3pm on a Thursday and not regret one bit. Kurdish kebab wrap and the falafel wrap are both the absolute business.

Woahh this place has the best flavours! I got the Falafel and it’s didn’t disappoint! The home made nan is super chewy and light and the sauces are sweet, spicy and tangy. Pice was bang on and really worth it! I’ll be back for sure 10/10

I love this place so much amazing nan and such amazing service

Brilliant naan, great value. Love the cheese naan.

Very nice as my friend took me, very fresh and not expensive most naan rolls are £5.50, I will go again, nice guys fast service but loads of customers

Went today and ordered a Kurdish kebab and some barley naan. The bread was slightly undercooked and rubbery. The kebab was ok but nothing special. I found it a bit stingy in terms of filling for both salad and meat. I was expecting much better considering the reviews and the constant queues outside the shop. Might come back to try the falafel.

OMG, the KUBBA is divine!! Fast and friendly athmosphere.

Greatest spot for a quick bite in London. This is authentic nan made in front of you and the guys that run the place are super friendly. Mush better than a lot of the current crop of hipster sandwich shops.The falafel nan is absolutely banging. I will be coming back here for the foreseeable future, highly recommend.

Good if you are looking for fresh naan and kebabs

DON’T EAT HERE: DIARRHEA PLACE Had a Kurdish Naan which made me seriously sick for a week with heavy diarrhea. The place is extremely dirty as reported by other reviews and should not be overlooked and clearly use dodgy oils and butters. A bit of a Russian roulette to eat here, would really not recommend as I developed a severe food poisoning lasting a whole week which nearly killer me as well as a bowel infection after eating here which later caused further long term health issues from the bacterial infection. I am going to report this place at the food safe and healthy.

Naan was rubbery. Kebab was amazing.

Great naan, good taste and texture

Best falafel wrap in london by far. The warm fluffy bread, moist perfectly seasoned falafel, salad and the most incredible mango sauce topped off with humus and chili sauce. All for an amazing price. Top 5 spots in london

Authentic fresh naans. Tasted like home! Thanks🙏

One of the best kebab wraps I've ever had, we went for the Kurdish kebab wrap. Service was quick and done with a smile, and it only cost £5.50 per wrap. Would absolutely recommend stopping by here for a quick and delicious bite to eat!

The Kubba wrap was the best. Really enjoyed it and the guys are very friendly and welcoming. bless ✌️

The best naan you'll ever have in your life.

Gorgeous Kurdish kebab wrap, best pre match meal by a mile. Super quick and that naan is delicious!

Get yourself a falafel wrap now! Great food, great team 🤗

Get the falafel wrapped inside a naan. Crunchy, freshly smashed falafel with flavourful sauce inside some freshly baked naan. Eat them at the nearby Finsbury Park on a good day and you’re in heaven then.

This food is great but I wouldn’t go out of My way to come here. The best is when they have made a fresh batch of falafel or kebab, otherwise they microwave the ones on display. The naans are all fresh and delicious.

Not sure I agree with the high rating, but the food was nice enough. If you’re nearby it’s worth trying for yourself, but I wouldn’t go out of my way.

Nice kurdish kebab on fresh naan. Good place to get some food after a match and reasonable price £6 with a drink

Very skilled and hard working staff.

Absolutely delicious naans, and very cheap . H highly recommend this for a cheap tastey meal on the go. Naan wrap and drink for £6

I use the very affordable naans to make those breakfast burritos from Dishoom

Delicious food - unlike any wrap I have had before. Fantastic price as well - you won't find anything better value this side of London. The service is very quick and staff are friendly.

Superb - I eat a lot of falafel wraps but this is as good as it gets. Fresh, unique spices, incredible value

Bread legends. Join the queue and get a falafel wrap. Never any regrets.

Hidden gem in Finsbury - fresh naan bread made on the spot, great prices, huge sizes, delicious and fluffy. Ordered a dozen, lasts 2-3 days in the fridge but best eaten fresh.

Incredible naan!! Really soft and pillowy- the meat kebab is good but the falafels are AMAZING as is the mango sauce! The staff are always really friendly and quick too! highly recommend Baban’s

Every time I'd drive past, there was always a queue. I saw a review on Timeout, so I decided to check it out. Staff pleasant, food good for filling the hunger spot. Very busy and fast, the shop is small so be prepared to queue outside.

Thanks so much guys, THE BEST NAANS. And lovely people. Cmon 🙌🏼‼️

One of the tastiest lunch options in Finsbury Park! Very affordable (with a drink option as a meal deal) and very delicious. I always go for the falafel wrap but there are also meat options. The staff are very friendly and service is fast

Excellent food reasonable priced !!

Amazing food and fresh Naan . Highly recommended

I am a big lover of fresh naan from an oven. Food is so good. I would recommend it to everyone.

The naan here is a textural sensation, the gluten development done to perfection.

Ordered a Kurdish kebab, which was great - alongside a naan to eat later. 6 hours later, I open the bag with the naan only to find it completely overrun by ants. I checked the place I stored the naan for those 6 hours and the bag I used to carry it home to make sure the ants hadn’t come from there. But no, no ants in the bag and no ants in the cupboard. the naan had apparently already been infested with ants when I received it which was horrifying, given that I’d already eaten the Kurdish kebab earlier. I found the hygiene of the individuals in the shop to be fine, so I was really disappointed by this experience

The Naans here are very Much traditional, light and bit of crispness to them. Very Good stop for a cheap tasty lunch spot or wrap stop. First time having traditional kurdish fillings and not my fave. Would have Falafel next time. Not into Mango in my food so didn’t try that. Just not up my street sauces like that at all. Would go back. Be good if they gave the little shop some filler and paint on the ceiling. Doesn’t take alot and would attract more clientele as I nearly never went in

Wow absolutely phenomenal food. Lovely staff. Wish I lived closer!

Elite. Freshly made on the spot. Incredible value. A must stop.

①unseasoned plain mince filler ②horrible taste and smell of old frying oil ③expensive price

Perfect naans! Would recommend the zaatar Naan

Can't wait come back. So tasty.

My naan was burnt and I couldn't eat it I had to chuck it away this is the worst naan I've ever had

Dependable and cheap Kurdish kebab and wrap place.

Such hospitality to match delicious, fresh food. Had a lovely chat with Adel, who was very kind, as I watched the naan made in front of me. Really affordable and excellent

Came here on a hunch yesterday looking at what they had online and one of the best hunches I've had - the food is excellent! Had the kurdish kebab wraps and kubba - both me and my husband loved it!! Very fresh!!

Found the food really oily and not much flavour

Really really reallllllllyy good falafel wrap best one in the area 100 percent

Super soft, super tasty naan, with lots of yummy fillings. Well priced and a queue, so that says a lot. Will be telling my friends!

Amazing food and the people working there are so helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.

Unbelievable food, flavors and freshness can’t be beat

Tasty, fresh, delicious! Definitely worth the wait in the queue. Can’t wait to try all the different options.

A really great find. Really amazing wraps, the slight differences from Turkish, Kurdish, Arabic, and other influences is just amazing. Subtle changes in flavour. This place has great prices, quick service, simple, tasty and just what's needed for a quick, filling lunch! The Kubbah is like bulgar kofte but with potato and is out of thus world. The only thing I would say is always ask for houmous, tomatoes too as it makes the flavour profile out of this world with the pickle sauce.

It's a hidden gem and very underrated take away. Food is fresh and heavenly delicious 😋.

Been going here twice a week for the past year. Simplicity but done extremely well and happy to see the guys here getting the attention they deserve. The falafel wrap is the usual go-to; usually on a plain naan, but sometimes on a garlic naan or a zataar one too. The kubba wrap is great as well, a bit heavier than the falafel one so I usually get this one only in the evening. regardless of your choice, it'll taste great and with all of the variations of naan to choose from you'll never get tired.

Freshly made and tasty . Very reasonably priced, there was a bit of a queue but was well worth the wait.

Very popular and the best place in London for all types of naan , there is always queue but it is worth it.

Delicious food, will definitely go back.

Great food, big portions, Kubba one was great ! Reccomend 👍👍😊

Baban’s Naan is a gem of a shop that specialises in a tantalising variety of naan breads, all freshly made to order. The aroma of baking bread that greets you upon entering is an enticing preview of the mouthwatering flavours that await. Whether you prefer traditional, plain naan or a more adventurous type filled with delicious ingredients, Baban's Naan delivers with superb quality. Furthermore, the staff members are exceptionally friendly, adding a personal touch to the experience and creating a welcoming atmosphere. If you're a fan of naan or simply appreciate fresh, artisanal baked goods, Baban’s Naan is a must visit.

A local legend for a reason. Quite simply, some of the best naan's you'll find in the country and I don't say that lightly. Freshly made to order and for the price, it's an absolute steal.

Delicious falafel wrap, came here on my lunch break. Would definitely come again and staff were nice :)

Such amazing taste, great prices for today’s market, the Kurdish kebab with all sauces, if you like hot/chilli, definitely have the sauce, it’s all amazing!!! A yogurt drink with Kurdish kebab, can’t go wrong

Brilliant little place tucked away on Blackstock Road, 5 minutes walk from Finsbury Park tube. Delicious and piping hot Kurdish kebab and Kubba! A true hidden gem!

Nice food food could be more friendly faces

Honestly, it's one of the best hidden gems in North London. This place gets busier and busier every time I go, and everything is made fresh, the kurdish kebab and kubba wrap is out of this world, I can't recommend this place enough, when it get busy it can get out controll make sure you know where you are the que.

Delicious treat, garlic naan nice Cheese naaan nice Wouldn’t recommend chilli one

Phenomenal naans and really great service, nothing here is bad. They have an actual tandoor.

Phantastisches Naan!! Falls man in der Gegend ist, kann ich nur empfehlen ein Brot zu probieren.

Fresh and hot naan bread to take away at very affordable prices. Many flavours to choose from. All naan were cooked in front of you and still hot when wrapped. The cheese naan was good, had a lot of cheese inside and they offered to add some garlic butter. The garlic butter reminded me of American buttered popcorn butter. The Kurdish naan sandwich was a great value meal at £5.00, however other than the naan the sandwich isn’t that amazing. I liked the pickles but I couldn’t taste the sauces that much and the meat wasn’t super fresh tasting. I liked that they cooked it fresh for you but I think sometimes they do leave it to sit out. They also have falafel sandwiches and potato/mince balls sandwiches. The service was really friendly as well.

Was recommended by a friend and it did not disappoint. The mince wrap is divine and the naan so fresh and soft. Love the rice kubba too. And the friendliest staff. RUN DON’T WALK!

Came here based on a friend’s recommendation. Discovered kubba and absolutely loved it. One of the best wraps I have ever eaten! Next time I’ll go easier on the chilli as it was a bit much to get a chilli naan PLUS the chilli sauce.

Went looking for something to eat, and found this amazing naan place, that do all sorts of naans and naan wraps. Prices are reasonable, and the food is so tasty.

Naans are worth trying. Very simple and authentic. The place in itself is a small shop with a tandoor that is placed in the corner of the shop, so you can see the hygiene is well maintained. Must visit if you are nearby.

I tried this for the first time today after seeing it recommended on IG. The family owners were extremely lovely- the food was fresh and tasty . We are vegetarian so they suggested a falafel wrap. Malik was so nice and gave some suggestions for the next time we visit- which will be very soon. My husband is quite fussy- but he loved the freshness and simplicity of the wrap. Their naans are so fresh and made to order when you arrive. I will be trying these next time. If you’re looking for cost effective, fresh tasty food then you won’t be disappointed. I love seeing these places still around- fresh and authentic.

Ev demek dirêje ez vî cihî nan distînim. Gelek cureyan nan dipêjin. Nanê loş u kibaba kurdî ên herî favorîyên minin. Nanê wan gelek taze u bi tamin, kargeha wan gelek temîze, karker gelek kubar u rugeşin.😋

Great fresh naan bread. I had the kubba wrap with lamp mince which was delicious! I'll certainly come back!
