What a relevant post, then.

Well, Ianbenjs, Elif is pretty much unbeatable. Further south(/east) you've got Nether Edge Kebab house (beat ya to it Mr. Bradley). Kebab world in Broomhill used to be good, but I haven't been there for a while. Kebabish on the Wicker is meant to be excellent (for the further north bit).

Cue this thread being subsumed by Sheffield's Best Kebab House Megathread.

Murdochs on Division Street. End of discussion.

I like the chicken kebabs from kebabish London road I find that they arent too greasy and they taste nice.

Not sure but why not have a look here http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=501 and then report back and tell us all eh?

Wicker Chicken!!!!

Hasina's at Meadowhead for me.Try it:D :thumbsup:

I refer everyone to this (http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?p=816338#post816338) brilliant critique of 'chicken' 'kebabs', which I wrote. God, I'm good.

Thanks.

had an elifs tonite and it was the best i've had, and i've had a few.... why dont any other kebab joint put the effort in to feeding the drunk nation, mind i was sobber when i got my elifs

i dont really like ELIF's food, one time i ate there and i felt sick:( have u ever tried BEST KEBABS i think BEST KEBABS is one of the best

chubbys ............ yum yum

chubbys ............ yum yum

I second that..I lurve chubbys...(taste buds going now!):thumbsup:

Jannath on West Street/Fitzwilliam Street. A wonderful Kebab Special (spicy, made with minced meat that looks edible, and just perfect). The only place I would even consider having a kebab.

Just Halal kebabs on the Wicker, been going there for years, you cant beat em.. :)
well recommended.

Can vouch for Kebab World in Broomhill - not the Doner, but the 'Mixed' Kebab - chicken and lamb shish, barbecued to order and taste to die for. It ain't cheap (fiver) but its SO good.

elifs for me every time :D

Zeugma on london road - their new place now does take away

Elif is the best in Sheffield!

Elif isn't that good value though - small lamb Sheish looks a bit pathetic when you open it up

Taste of Kashmir in Crookesmoor!

Lovely soft naans, and good tastes! Good prices too!

(Just don't look at or think about what you're eating - kebabs should never be inspected, wherever you get them. Just eat and enjoy)

Of course you should inpsect them, otherwise you could be eating anything..... errrrrr:gag: From just halal kebabs you dont need to inspect them as they make them infront of you and they taste very nice everytime :)

Does anyone actually see any pigeons on the Wicker ?

I see a lot of places down there selling 'chicken' cheap.

Nice.

P.S.

POPEYES CHICKEN KEBABS.

Very nice.

Original Kebabish on the Wicker is very good, try their grilled chickens for £3.50. Excellent value.

Kebabish on London Road is really good although if Zeugma do actually do takeaways Im gonna need to call in there

Kebabish on London Road is really good

WRONG! 0/10

Ok,try this one out as a challenge;) .A Hasina's(Meadowhead) special mixed Keebab. Mixture of Doner meat,chicken tikka,seekh kebab with nan & salad.Only £6 & nearly 2 foot long:o. No one person could eat this in one sitting(well I couldn't anyway)

CHINOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOS! Margarita pizza £3, cant beat it!

Why does everybody go on about Elif?
The last time I was in there, they were serving kebabs in bought-in pitta breads - this is NOT how it should be.

Where Fladenbrot (that's the German name for Turkish flatbread, don't know what it is in Turkish) isn't available, then the only alternative is Naan bread. Pitta (unless it's the real, larger, freshly made Middle Eastern version not the British fake stuff) just isn't up to the job.

A good kebab shop will cook a fresh Naan to order for its kebabs. I must admit, I haven't been back to Elif (why would I?) since that and they may have changed.

Anywhere that serves frozen pitta breads should be boycotted, it's inexcusable.

NEKH serve kebabs in freshly made Naans as do Kebabish on the Wicker.

Defstef -

If I understand your post to which you have linked, you seem to be suggesting that a chicken kebab isn't a kebab, but a sandwich.
Kebab refers to the way in which the meat (or veg or fish) is cooked, not the way in which it is served and eaten.
Many cuisines serve kebabs with rice and yoghurt without bread at all.

Amen to that!

Spicy bites on Attercliffe yum.

for a kebab place in hillsborough i would recommend Marios on middlewood road had the meal deal the other week with my fella, included a donor kebab and chicken kebab. both lovely and not greasy at all. The chicken one was a spicy chicken which not be to all tastes but we both liked it. Both served in a freshly cooked on site thin nann bread.

Only problem was that there were loads of it! my boyfriend thought it was great-but his eyes are bigger than his belly lol. :)

My mate swears by Murdochs. He's too thin to have a good taste in food!!:hihi:
Never rated them, the meat actually tastes like lamb. That's not what I'm after in a Kebab!! Give me the stuff that you have no idea what it's made of.
Used to like Milan's on Chesterfield Road until about a year ago. Then they changed their chilli sauce to something hotter, but with no flavour. Nowhere near as good now.


Oh, outside Sheffield, Ellies was good.

yummy hut on ecclesall road
or make your way to abbydale. yum

err... yep. Made this concession on that same thread over two years ago, when similarly challenged:


def stef you have unveiled your lack of kebab knowledge to the world, for it is not the meat which makes it a kebab it is the fact it is cooked on a skewer, chicken kebabs are far more tastier too....
I concede to your *proper* definition (although the Oxford dictionary definition also allows for meat cooked on a spit as well as a skewer, as in the vertical case of a rotating donner trunk). I just think that 'kebab' should by default refer to a donner, for reasons I can't quite explain. Fish kebabs, too, are lovely.

Incidentally, Jannath off West Street do what they term a "mix kebab". Their wares differ from those offered by Elif (Turkish in orgin) or other kebab houses (which might be Greek or otherwise balkan) in that they originate from Northern India and Pakistan. The "mix kebab" dish consists of a highly spicy sheekh kebab (a spicy sausage made of lamb), a shami kebab (a burger-like patty, which doesn't look like it has ever been on a skewer or spit) and an onion bhaji.

Keep up.

There are also ethical reasons why lamb is better than chicken, namely that it's pretty hard to mistreat lamb. I'd happily pay extra for free range chicken, but I understand that takeaways have to take the position that enough customers would pay the extra to make this a viable option. Anyway, I digress...

Why does everybody go on about Elif?
The last time I was in there, they were serving kebabs in bought-in pitta breads - this is NOT how it should be.

I think it's obvious that you basically weren't in Elif! I've been going to Elif for many, many years, and they've always made the turkish flatbread while I was there. Are you sure you've got the right place? I've never known anyone be served a kebab in a pitta bread from Elif, so that's the only conclusion I can draw from your frankly bizarre assertion!

zeugma is usually fantastic but had a pide in the restaurant last week and it was bland

Zeugma or Kebab World, both very good :)

It was a few years ago and it was definitely Elif on eccy road. In the end, I threw it away in disgust, not only was the bread rubbish but the kebab itself was terrible. It was really late and my impression at the time was that they didn't care what they were serving.

It was definitely pre-packaged pitta bread.

Having said that, many people rave about Elif and I'm willing to give them a second chance.

Kebabish in the Wicker offer the best kebabs in Sheffield, they also do some nice curries. There is also a Turkish place on London Road, I think it's called something like Sugeema, but not sure. Their kebebs are very authentic and you get loads.

Not too sure, but would like to second those comments, they are devine, even when your not Pi$$ed
