Istanbul Of Leighton Buzzard in Central Bedfordshire

One of the best kebabs I've tasted throughout the UK. Delicious chilli sauce. The doner kebab was fresh and flavorful, and the lamb and chicken in the mixed kebab were amazing. Despite a busy atmosphere. The food is always cooked to perfection and served promptly and the staff were friendly and provided an excellent service. Will definitely be my go-to now when I am in the area. Keep it up guys!

Lived in LB for 5 years and have always ordered from here as usually good but the last 2 meals have been awful. Cold food and wrong order. When I called to complain they don’t believe you! Won’t use again. Also had a star removed from hygiene rating which is a little concerning…..

Thought I’d try something new, Ordered a regular sized chicken Shiah kebab, was expecting something like kebab ye or Turkish delight… really disappointing, tiny kebab..phoned about it, couldn’t really have cared less. Just won’t go there again… suggest you don’t either.

Best takeaway food in Leighton Buzzard, friendly people👍

Exellent food staff were nice and chatty reasonable prices

Had take away from here tonight was soo yummy, great service and delivered to my door super quick highly recommend friendly staff

For me the best chicken kebabs in town. Although living in France now and returned home for a few weeks I was surprised at the price increases. But that's normal I guess

Best Kebabs in Leighton Buzzard.

Used to be a favourite but last 2 times been disappointing. The last time my wings were over cooked, hard and tasteless. My chips were undercooked!! Never using again unfortunately

Usually good but tonight took over an hour to deliver in a Wednesday. Garlic mushrooms were stone cold and clearly cooked an hour ago Called them to ask where the food was at 45 minutes. Got told that it was only 44 minutes and it was still cooking so "what do you want me to do?" Won't use again.

Gorgeous interior and the staff are very welcoming. Very nice food and the kebabs are top tier.

The doner kebab was absolutely delicious. Could tell the meat and veggies were fresh. The lamb steak and chicken in the mix kebab were amazing too. Only downside was weak chilli sauce (maybe just a bad batch) but the garlic sauce was more than enough to make up for it. It was quite a large order and we were given a free large bottle of pepsi.

As a rule of thumb when ordering from a kebab shop not used before, it's best to order food without any sauces to determine if the meat is lamb and not mutton or tainted..

These guys have been serving the best kebabs in town for years now, a must try for all kebab lovers

Food is great, well cooked/presented. Staff pay attention detail and nothing is too much trouble. Pleasant professional staff/service who care about their customers, always my 1st choice when it comes to kebabs & wraps. Big thumbs up

Terrible! Doner meat burnt and horrible! Tastes like an old boot! Probably the worst kebab I've had. Never again!

First visit and used the online ordering. 10 minutes quoted, food ready within 30 seconds of arrival, possibly exactly 10 minutes. Impressive clean and tidy shop and excellent quality food too. As Arnie says....!

Just been refurbished looks great and very clean but very dissapointed that the prices have gone up yet again suppose some ones got to pay for it

One of the best Kebab shops in town!

Ordered here tonight for a change never again!!! Ordered a mixed meat wrap over £7 and is was basically salad inside!! Chips were cold and the chicken looked as if it had been sat there for few days.. very disappointed and waste of money, only good thing out of it was the bottle of Pepsi and chilli sauce 🙄

Ignorant staff, dry chicken and cold chips. Won't use again

Friendly staff always polite my kebab was piping hot chip's were great...delivery was super quick what's not to like thank you Istanbul staff

Best kebab in town, always fresh and tasty food :)

Friendly service, good food and a great chilli sauce. We use Istanbul quite often

Not that good realy, always grumpy when you go in and the last kebab I had was cold... Never again

@MARK DEAKiN Could we mention that free bottle off coke does’nt come with all large orders and it’s up to the mangers decision it does not write in our menus that a bottle of drink as to be given The person who took your order did not write salad and peppers to your burger, so thats why salad did not come. Also When giving salad with your meals unless clearly stated we don’t put peppers unless it is clearly stated we were very busy on the day . And we expect from our old customers to be understanding. We apologize

My delivery was not what i ordered. £27 order, have the free bottles of fizzy now stopped? Burger was plain ask for salad & peppers Shish kebabs no chili peppers. When a woman places an order and double checks with you why did i receive this! You are now on my blacklist.

Have used them for years, but recently the chicken has been very dry, the chips recooked & the kebabs seem to have less & less in them. Shame really.

Nice kebabs and friendly staff

An excellent Takeaway with very friendly staff, cannot rate this place enough. From their Food Quality to Staff Etiquette to Hygiene, brilliant! I’ve been going here for a very very long time, mind you, and believe they don’t deserve the two 1 star ratings they received. So much so I made my own Google account to defend them... First and foremost, Laila Mulvihill, have you any idea what the busiest hours of a takeaway shop are? Friday&Saturday 6-8pm. The Lamb Doner is freshly cut, however needs a few minutes to steam in a pot to soften, baring in mind it doesn’t stay longer than 15 minutes at these hours. So when you ask for ‘well done’ Doner meat straight off the stand, it’ll be drier than your lips in a matter of seconds, exactly why they are hesitant to give it to you. I’m sure they’d do it for you if you asked for it at off peak hours, but during peak I imagine it’d be near impossible to please ALL customers, especially when one wants Welldone doner meat whereas everyone else prefers a softer texture. Not to mention, you calling up beforehand and still turning up at the shop, a little discourteous and rude of you. Onto Pav. Where to begin, your false review or your fake account? I’ve been coming here since they first began, and disrespecting a ‘loyal’ customer is the last thing they’d do. Yes, they may make mistakes on our orders, but they’re not robots. Perhaps leave your bad reviews till the Robot uprising begins Ha.... Also, I’m no detective or anything but pretty sure 24th October was a Wednesday, I’d know since it is my birthday and I know how to read a calendar. If you’re going to make a false review, refrain from talking out of your Neptune and get your facts right. Love this place.

On a friday night at 7pm we asked for 2 large doners cooked well done they told us they already had the lamb doner pre cut. So we drove up to find they had the doner still up there. We asked again for 2 well done doners and as one guy was doing it an older man started shouting sayin that there was apready pre cut meat. I said that we would prefer freshly cut meat which was well done and he went off alarming. Obviously me and my friend walked straight out it wasnt good service at all. Wouldnt recommend

Excellent takeaway, friendly staff

I have moved to the local area in the last 2 months and came across Istanbul takeaway. This is the best takeaway experience I have had in sometime. Great value food with polite staff

Nice kebab House good friendly outfit with a good food hygiene rating.

Excellent quality food and service good value for money

Excellent service...quality of food could have been more moist..
