Their food use to be the best now its probably one of the worst. They dont put the same pride in it the way they did. Got mixed donner paid for large seemed small they put it in a tray i wonder what the small eould have been like. Chicken donner was old so they put extra seasoning on so customers cant tell. The donner was ok not as good as usual. Fries smelt of old oil seems lile they havent changed it for a long time

Before Faraz was a very well liked spot by majority of the people within Birmingham. Unfortunately that has changed, and this has resulted in the decline of the food. Fries tasted weird (not the same), rest of the food tasted nice. Staff were taking long and not a lot of service to show.a

Visited the place as I was in the area. However the place has gone down hill tremendously over the years. Very unfriendly staff serving customers, uncle who owns the place was very rude to the customer in front with his mannerisms and behavior, I couldn’t help but overhear his response to the queries regarding the menu. The staff in the back were vaping whilst cooking the food. Generally very unclean and dirty and messy to sit in and dine. It’s a shame as I remember this as the go to place once upon a time. This is no longer the case, it’s not family friendly either as a family walked in and felt so uncomfortable they walked out. This place is best avoided generally, as a last resort it’s fine for a take out if everything else is closed and you can put up with rude owners and a very dirty food place.

This was my first time trying Faraz fried chicken and firstly they don’t accept cash so my mum had to walk a distance to the pay point to get cash. We ordered 2 steak burger meals and 1 chicken biryani which all came up to 20.00 absolute scam. The burgers were cold and the biryani portion was small. The hygiene in the shop was disgusting as our table was not cleaned even when we asked for it to be cleaned. Never going back to this place

I got the donner and naan. It was really nice because they made the donner and bread fresh and homemade. I also got the kebab and they were really nice and meaty. The bread was really soft and fluffy and the donner wasn't too greasy. The tables and the floor were dirty though and the bathrooms didn't work so I had to go to the men's one but it's fine. They sell a lot of different things so I will rate their food a solid 5👌

Guys I’m literally in tears as I’m typing this review, My Lord what has happened to this place, the 25 year history I physically can’t lower the stars below 3 because of my childhood. Man i remember as a kid my dad driving me to Faraz, and being mesmerised by the small chilie tubs and the fries and the fish burger. Now going back after what seems like 4 years ago, time has gone by and the place looks worn, battered, empty, soulless, I literally went back into my car and started crying in the car, couldn’t help myself to make an order. My son was worried why i was crying, I told him ‘my childhood has disappeared’ i wish I hadn’t had returned and I don’t want them to go out of business.

I've been coming here since they first opened, everything that was good about the place is no longer true. they don't use quality fries like before, now have the cheap disgusting twig like fries you get from all the fake UK fried chicken and Iranian pizza shops. not only that, but my fries were recooked and were just rock hard hollow twigs of oil. completely inedible. uncle if you can't even get a decent portion of fries out after 25+yrs you need to retire and sell the shop, enjoy the time you got left instead of selling thruck. it's no wander new places are taking over your business. how much money would you have lost by throwing away leftover fries?? 10p?? 15p 20p?? is it worth losing customers over 15p worth of the cheapest fries in wholesale??? absolutely 0 effort for quality. still charging premium prices but they don't even sell real coke anymore, real coke is necessary for alot of people, that's why it's the best selling soft drink in the world. Pepsi is not same my doner meat was also extremely greasy and cold, was dripping all over my hands. the best thing about the meal was the tomato slice on my burger. while the world moves forward, these lot are going backwards. seriously, nowadays someone will pay good money for your shop, sell the shop, go home.

I know prices are gone up everywhere but yesterday I spent over £23 which isn't bad. Normally when we buy food from Faraz it's really good quality food but yesterday we we're really disappointed the fries were really oily even though we paid extra we got all the same chicken pieces. The £4 donner didn't taste good and it was so little it was like in the medium box but less than half spreaded out my family who always go there we're shocked. It's disgusting because when my dad husband or brothers go they get better food/service. They didn't even give me tissue It's shameful and ashame that I won't be going there again. Always check your food in the shop when you have a takeout.

Ive been coming to this place for over 30 years. The hygeine isnt great. I only ever get the cheese burger meal. Recently theyve started to mass grill the cheeseburgers and warm up when a customers puts an order in. This is very lazy of them and the pre grilled burgers end up smelling really bad. You have to ask them to make it "fresh from frozen"... wouldnt reccomend for families to eat in as its fairly dirty. Lots of unsavoury characters late at night.

Purchased a doner kebab. Faraz have changed their doner kebab supplier. The doner kebab was extremely greasy, as seen in the photos, I arrived home and the fat had hardened inside the wrapper and the box, and even outside the wrapper 🤣. These guys are also quite rude at the till. They don’t thank you, they just take your money and grunt at you to take your order slip. To eat the kebab was not a v nice experience. It is a shame actually, because it was so greasy. A wasted trip. The saddest thing is, that Faraz’s doner kebab used to be actually very nice. Not any more. Faraz, guys stop cheating customers making cutbacks because your finding it difficult to pay your bills, with cheap ‘kebab’ doner. Buy some quality meat. And be nice and kind to the customers, after all we’re paying your salaries and taxes.

Classic southern fried chicken shop that has been at the heart of the area for a good number of years. I would reccomend the fried chicken and chips as its a signiture of the shop. A bad point would be that the store itself isn't very clean or hygienic. They also only take cash in this store which is the norm considering over half the shops in this road only take cash. However, the food itself is surprisingly good and I would definitely reccomend for some cheap tasty fast food.

I went late afternoon and the shop wasn't busy. I ordered 2 piece chicken and fries, cheeseburger and donner and fries. The chicken was dry like cardboard the donner meat was dry around the edges and the cheeseburger was overcooked. I asked them why they gave an old dry piece of chicken and they all gathered to take a look at it like it was alive and laying eggs, no salad with the donner and fries, the cheeseburger was pre cooked and warmed up on order and the donner was cut from and left in a warm tray. The staff don't answer back when asked about the poor quality food they serve. I would definitely stay away from this place.
