Yum Yum Kebab in Edinburgh, City of

Fabulous place for end of the night food!! The people are amazing 🤩

The most god awful kebab I’ve had in forever. The meat was dry , the chili sauce was like passata and every time I got a bit with the sauce I was disappointed. Save your time and money and go elsewhere.

I usually don't have any problems with shops closing early if there are no customers but closing an hour early seems way too excessive. The opening hours said until 3am, I got there at 2 and it was closed. No idea if they just don't want customers or the hours are registered wrong but that screams "I don't want to work, I'm gonna go home early." If the hours are represented wrong, I'll take down or adjust the rating but just wtf...

Absolutely amazing good service 💯

Thank you Safwen! It was unbelievable! This is real Soul Food!!!!!

I’ve been a loyal customer for years however I just got served raw chicken pakora :(

The chicken shawarma is delicious, especially the hot sauce

Normal prices. We ordered Doner Kebab to take away. My wife couldn't finish it. Or it was my case. Abundant. We enjoyed it in the sun, sitting on the grass.

Chicken Donner not at all good...waste of money

My son ate kebab in a pan, my wife and I, fish & chips. Everything was tasty and well seasoned. Quickly, great. Not expensive.

Lovely kebab place offering a vast menu, friendly and helpful service. Guy, who served us, was really helpful too!

Rude and literally shooed me out the place 🤣 cold food. Just don’t do it

We stayed here 3 times out of our 4 nights in Scotland. Twice later in the evening after the pubs. Had a nice snack and meal

The taste is okay, but it is not worth the price. The price was exaggerated for one falafel sandwich and one Pepsi for £9.95.

highly recommend avoiding this place!!!

As a Turk, it was the most tasteless doner kebab I could ever taste. Unfortunately, Turkish food is cooked poorly by non-Turkish people. I don't know how their other dishes were, but Döner Kebab was very bad.

Rude and unfriendly staff, the food is not even good to be honest and not worth the price. Would go somewhere else if I were you.

The worst fish ever fried to death and like a sardine hardly edible shame because it used to be good.......won't be back unfortunately.

Checked online for a take away while on train coming into Edinburgh, first trying here, went for the donor and chicken kebab, great service, great taste, what more can you ask. Would go again.

Very friendly staff, quick service, and good food.

Very nice food and very kind personal. The price is very good compare with another one 👌.

Place is rated 4.4 on Deliveroo which I fail to understand how. Ordered 2 chicken shawarmas, the shawarma was bland tasteless and the chicken had a bad smell. Unfortunately due Fake rating and stars we had to dispose off the food. The portion size was massive but is it of any point if the food is bad. It felt like something was put together just to get rid off what was left in the kitchen. Ordered food at 10.30 in the night, so by the time the food came and we found out the reality of the 4.4 rating it was too late to order from anywhere else. I guess shouldnt be ordering food online anymore because cant trust these ratings also anymore

Staying in a close-by hotel, we needed a late night dinner on new year's eve. Yum Yum was the closest open place. I walked in. I waited 4mn to order three wraps an they were ready in 3mn. My goodness. They were so good. Great food after a night of drinking and partying.

Good food for late night dinner. Thanks guys

Guy tried to overcharge me, not sure if it was a genuine mistake or he thought I was drunk... Aside from that, the service was prompt, and the food was good. Plus, it was open at 1 am which is the main thing.

Schedule not good Closed on arrival Poor hygiene To do !!!

Great place, clean, reasonable price, vegetarian options, middle eastern food, Mediterranean food, great staff, been there once wheb i visited Edinburgh, delicious and great food

Its good for food late at night. Pizza and chips definitely hit the spot after a fun night. They are open late and you can bet it will be tasty and full of fat. No complaints here!

Your regular late night kebab house, nothing more or less. Large portion, pretty good, maybe a quid too much, but hey, there's literally nothing else around.

Rude staff, ordered large, got given small, staff got aggressive and rude when I asked about the size. I waited 37 minutes for my small order, yet people that came after (that ordered similar orders) were served before me, indicating clear prejudice.

We arrived late from airport and this was the only place open in the area. The fish and chips were decent as well as the chicken dish. Service was friendly and fast.

Great place for a late dinner. Despite there is no tartar sauce for the fish, you can use burger sauce and it will do the job. However, I don’t recommend eating the fried skin.

Good for shwarma, pizza n burger

Very horrible the staff aren't really clean toching food with there hands, it very discussing that, to be honest. They aren't friends as well.

AVOID AVOID AVOID - Terrible customer service, very dismissive. Ordered a doner kebab and chips and only received kebab meat and chips, told the staff that’s not what I ordered or paid for but they literally made me take it or nothing. Portions are small yet expensive, no salt and vinegar on chips or even asked, asked for a bag and got told to bag it myself. WARNING - they prey on the drunks of Edinburgh!!!!

Late night food place on way back to hotel. Fairly standard food nothing to shout about. Staff were friendly enough. Wife had some chicken pakora, which was pretty dry, I had a lamb shish, which was pretty standard.

Not left the toilet since my kebab last night… service was shocking too. I’ll no be back, and I’d advice everyone to do the same

Fresh and delicious ,stuff very friendly

I have never eaten a kebab this bad, ever. The spicy sauce was spoiled and the meat was cold. If you are really hungry in the middle of the night, like I was, go to a pizza place instead.

I had bad day and tried to pick some food outside, there I saw yum yum, I had ordered one chicken shawarma of price £8.50 something and I had mistakenly provided him cash of around £10 he didn't given my cash back, its just hilarious, by frauding a coin or more you couldn't got rich, either just losing customers. Please put honest staff on till

That was the worst doner kebab I've ever eaten, everything was put on top of each other with the sauce on top and the meat was also very disgusting. It was a 1-5 because I was drunk and hungry, otherwise it was a 0-5

This place is terrible. Oily food and the people serving you are drunk and charges extra without you realising.

Daban más comida en un comedor comunitario, no mandaría ni a mi peor enemigo a comer aquí

Very good quality of kebabs. I am a fan on shish kebab and this one provided the one Was dreaming about. Thanks guys! Next time will take another protective foil out of your TVs, surely :) Update 01/23 still the same quality and service! Superb! Update 06/23 better better !

Visiting from Australia and came in with my parents tonight. Really enjoyed the food and lovely customer service. Jazakallah khier.

Delicious chicken shawarma. This place is hidden away in Fleshmarket Close but worth looking for! Not fancy but if you’re looking for a place with good middle eastern food, this is it.

The boss is a filthy racist and freaking robber! We had to order 5times before to get anything... Meanwhile this guy was mocking us with young girls clients. He tried to offered us gums and snacks to cover the fact that he charged us 2 times! Without giving us abandon receipt he immediately calls an other guy to pay for a default. After that he charged me 5 pounds more than my friend for the order. When my friend looked at his account, he noticed it. The boss didn't accept it and lied for 10minutes straight. Gave us 10 pounds less than what he stole from us. Disgusting behaviour and food! Never go there, dangerous and scammy. Gonna call police and hygiene control.

Chicken Kebab was not near to chicken at all. Rubbish and the guy on the teller was unprofessional. Do not recommend and better no to eat.

Low quality döner. Beef lacked seasoning and flavor

Staff was very pleasant and helpful. Portions were considerable. We had chicken shwarma and chicken donnor.

Food - chicken donner was not a closed kebab, however was perfectly spiced and cooked. Cucumber - very fresh - note you need a fork. 9/10 for the ‘chicken kebab’. A local said, ‘the best shwarma I’ve had in Edinburgh’ Service - would have to see the film footage to comment on this Atmosphere - Scottish - man walked in with three big bricks of cheese - no questions asked !

Even for a kebab place, this is dire!

Decently priced, large portions, fast service, great flavour and well cooked meat. Been there 5 times in the last fortnight and it’s consistently perfect every time, what more could you want?! Nice work guys

Great chicken doner kebab, on a lovely, thin bread wrap. Crunchy salad, great sauces. Very busy, which was a good sign. Highly recommended for a good grab & go meal.

Ma questi hanno mai mangiato un kebab serio? Bah!!!

Wenn ich könnte, würde ich 0 Sterne geben! Ekelhaft! Der schlimmste Döner in unserem Leben! Es ist eigentlich eine Beleidigung, dass es sich Döner Kebap nennt!

Mal atendido,mal carácter,pésima forma atender cliente

Brilliant service and quality food , even helped with directions - really went above and beyond

Me regalaron un trozo de pizza. Muy buena gente

Got a hoagie wrap in like 2 minutes at 2am. Can't really fault that. It was really good too

Expensive but very tasty and well made wraps

Personal muy desagradable, ambiente raro y comida muy sosa, no vale la pena.

Musste wegen dem Chicken Kotzen.

The staff is nice and friendly, and the pizza was very tasty. I guess judging from other reviews your best bet will be the pizza. We did not have anything else, but could really recommend the pizza.

They made us a special request pizza and it was the best salami pizza with tomatoes i have ever had. We will definitely come again! Thank you :)

One of the only places open at Christmas. Pizza was ok for the price. Nothing special

Friendly service, great food, super fast too.

Waited in line for ten minutes, and they decide to serve the locals who walked in rather than us. Don’t go if you’re not local.

Bad service. Very bad service. Arrogant.

The worst burger I ever had! It was disgusting!

The most bland kebab we’ve ever had. Large shish for £13 but only one skewer, asked for two pittas and only gave us one in a seperate bag. Watery chilli sauce, the most BLAND chicken, seems unseasoned and like they’ve just put plain chicken on the grill, soggy chips and we asked for salt on them but got given them plain.

REALLLLY DELICIOUS 🤤 🤭🤭 and super nice guy and amazing food

Open really late which is nice for Edinburgh. But did get a pretty terrible vegetable pakora.

Nice little take away near Grass market

Don't even bother to go there. Tasteless, Greasy... What a waste of your time and money.

Dissapointed this time round as the lamb shish was undercooked. It ended up on the bin and a dodgy tummy the following day!

Says open till 3am but is defos not

You guys need to fix the open times on Google Maps. You guys aren’t even open accordingly!

This place is legit. Open late, quick service, large portions and reasonably priced. The mixed meat and chips with cheese were my go to almost every night while I was in town for Fringe. The lamb kebab was also good. Of all of the kebab shops in the area this one was consistent in freshness and cleanliness. I'll be back to rest the next time I'm in town for Fringe!

27/8/22 - Saturday late evening snack We three middle aged London guys had just seen a show and were peckish for a pizza before hitting a few bars. We were being shown round by a local friend who recommended this place as it was near. We arrived to this busy joint at 10:15, ordered a veggie 12 inch pizza and by 10:25 it was in the small table between us by the window. A carton of spice sauce was given to us to prep it up. It was a good pizza, obviously piping hot and well flavoured. My friend said he was not hungry beforehand but that did not stop him eating a big piece as he said it was delicious! The boss was very chatty, humorous and started to play with the five screens (each came up as an MS Windows crash) displaying the prices which I thought were permanent backlit displays originally! The prices were quite steep (we were peckish and the options were limited locally) so that led is to believe that they may have been hiked for the Festival/Fringe. Our host will check them out later. Of course the prices ruses of energy may contribute to the increased prices overall and they are making hay whilst the sun shines and hedgeing on future rises. Btw to Mrs GG two reviews below (only 1 review) and Mary (3reviews!) thus is not England it is Scotland!! Interesting ...

Super tasty Shwarma! Fresh and delicious. It was filling too, so it was a good bang for my buck. The guy who took care of me was really nice. Also for all of my North American friends, it is here I learned that “salad” means lettuce and stuff on your food (wrap/ burger), not a salad on the side. Learn from me as I looked like an idiot lol. Good food !

Extremely fast service and friendly staff, delicious food. 100% recommend.

Bad greasy and bad custumer service

Döner on the way home from the pub. It was nice, but too expensive and the meat was boring.

Dont eat here, nothing tasted like food. We had falafel, lamb pita and hummus, there was no food taste, hard stale food, you could not identify what you were eating, horrible !!! So unfriendly as well, as if they were doing me a favour by taking my money for the worst meal in all of England.

Quick take away bite specially after a few drinks. Not too sure if it was healthy but filling yes :)

absolutely terrible. hands down worst restaurant i’ve ever ate at: the kebab was inedible, they got orders wrong, and gave a heaping amount of gross toppings straight from a bag.

Why it says on google that the place is open until 3am?

We got veggie Pakora on Friday night, it was hideous ... burnt on the outside, uncooked on the inside. We got three lots and had to bin the lot. Hard pressed to think of a worse meal I have had in my life ... really horrible. Chips and salad were okay.

Food is delicious and halal. Has vegetarian options The owners were very friendly and kind. Amazing little restaurant!

Open late night. We finished our planned tours at around 10 pm and very few restaurants were open. And none had a place for 7 of us. Yum yum is good for a quick and filling bite.

Would not recommend it. Fries with no salt, falafel could be better and all in all quite expensive

Pire bouffe de ma vie... Apparence de pate pour chien (a qui je ne servirais jamais cela) Fuyez !!!

In what world is this gravy 😭 it looks like a blood clot, I am so alarmed, do not order from here please

Nos tomamos un kebab no demasiado bueno y el local estaba muy sucio. Nada recomendable.

It's a restaurant garbage with a staff of all embarrassment they treated us very badly. First of all, I told him to make me a wrap and he made it extra spicy, I took 2 mouthfuls and I couldn't eat it, then I told him to change it, but he didn't even notice that he said it was too busy. he said it was my fault. I would never go back

Ordered doner Kebab. The taste was OK but the food was not piping hot.

Friendly service and satisfying food!

The pita was stale, and chips were not cooked, pitty as it used to be a great place for a munch ..... now though pay £10 for a small kebab and told its a large, rubbish!!! I would never go back

Asked for a small kebab, charged for a large kebab, barely any meat and it was cold. They thought I was drunk so properly mugged me off, terrible experience.
