We ordered a kebab for delivery ASAP and got told it would be 45 minutes they’d fine …. It has taken 1hr 50 to get to us (it’s a 15 min drive) and the food was cold! We are most unimpressed to say the least.

My son tried to cancel the order he is in hospital and I know he would have been polite over the phone about this matter. I then telephoned as his mum to explain the situation but the manager was very rude he kept saying that I worked at the hospital I should control what patients are ordering I am an hour and half away from the hospital he just rudely kept repeating or rather shouting that I worked at the hospital and it was my fault. So guess yes I was rude back if you are going to speak to people in that tone you will just get rude back my son is in a stressful situation in the hospital he would have meant no harm and trying to cancel his order How rude is the manager of this kebab shop !!!!!!!

Second shot, tried again, I noticed on arrival that the Lamb Kabab cooking rotor was turned off with the remains of burnt meat on the spindle. Two Lamb Kababs ordered, The meat was taken from the heated tubs and the salad was fresh. The heated tubs keep the food warm but also depending on time dehydrates the food. And again we threw most of it away as the meat was in a period of drying out. I appreciate in catering because of an unknown demand especially in fast food it is difficult to remain on top. You will get nowhere if you do not supply fresh food and be prepared to lose income from stale food above reputation.

Unfortunately the order was wrong. Tomato and onion in a wrap that was meant to be hallumi and lettuce only. Not good when you don’t like onion and tomato!! Seemed quite hectic in the shop so not surprised the order was wrong. Such a shame.

Hit and miss, unfortunately inconsistent , some times really nice, fresh, hot and good fast service. On the down side we have had tonight and not for the first time lamb kebab that contained overcooked, dehydrated, crystallised meat that should have been wasted , placing profit before standards And so we are all judged by our best and worst, but it is the latter that will be remembered.

Used to love this place but no longer do. Been ordering from here for over 10 years. This weekend they got the order wrong. When replacing the order they asked for the wrong items back as the didn’t believe us. They often make mistakes and we have to deal with it. Disgusting customer service to loyal customers!

For the past 7 years I've lived here I'd say botan kebabs had the upper hand with quality of meat. The past 2 years their standard has dropped dramatically by reheating meat to order and drying it out. Thatcham kebabs has always maintained their standard throughout and will always order here from now on. Great kebab, great standard canr go wrong with these guys

Don't order from here, don't waste your money. I wish I had read the reviews before ordering but it's my own fault for not doing so. I've never had a take away so bad as this place before, chicken shish was undercooked the doner meat smelt bad, chicken strips was just Batter and the chips was dry and like eating cardboard All the meal had no flavour at all On the plus side the service was actually good and on time But please avoid

Well...don't waste your time or money. Its the biggest rip off ever . Once I swam through the grease of my wrapper, I was expecting a grilled chicken kebab, instead I got shreded chicken that seemed frozen, and was hard and dry, the chips were harder than a bullet and clearly had been reheated or stored under heat lamps all day., I cant give a star rating as they don't deserve one!! But had too to leave a review!! Ps wrapper is after polystyrene box! Please don't go !!

Very disappointed in tonight’s order from thatcham kebab! I have used this company for many years now and tonight has really let me down. I ordered a bit off my usual including a large box of cooked doner meat but let’s be fair it’s hardly cooked it looks like it’s been a bit shy off the grill and hasn’t been crisped up at all which has left it soggy and rubbery like chewing on a sandal. Will be waiting to order again until I see better reviews.

The owner has sadly lost my business as he told me off whilst making a £60 order. It was my child's birthday get together. I greeted a guest saying hello and quickly explained that I was ordering food . The told me off saying "Do not say hello to people whilst you are making an order with me. Keep your mind on what you are doing." I used to make quite regular orders as I thought it better to go local than pizza hut etc. I will never make another order after that. Also they don't even give a free drink or snack with orders over £30 or £40. Customers are NOT valued only as cash cows. The food is average never enough salad on the kebabs often coldish and way too much cheese on pizzas so they are full of Grease.

Terrible experience. We ordered a donner meat and chips via the app. We spoke to the live chat vis the app and said how do we add salad etc. Ans they said add it to the comments as on Donner meat and chips there is no option to do it. It arrived and despite ordering a large it was really small, the Donner meat was barely cooked and there was no salad cheese or sauce. Totally plain. I called up to complain and they're said it was my fault because I didn't pay for it. I explained the app doesn't allow that to happen so they offer to charge me for some salad and cheese and deliver salad and cheese to me. Not even an apology. They said it's not their fault it's the company that runs the apps fault because they shouldn't have told me that. They had my number but didn't call me to ask me to pay the extra before delivering it, just ignored it because it wasn't paid for and sent it out plain. Dinner ruined. Avoid.
