"Simply the best kebab in the South. There may be a queue, but that's a sign of how good they are and the staff smash though any queues quickly without cutting corners."

"The best kebabs and burgers I have had. Moved out from the area over a decade ago. I will still drive in just to get my kebabs from the Charcoal Grill. One of the last places that still make their own kebabs. Portions are very generous. Medium is Large, Large is XL, XL is XXL compared to other grills. For us one portion of large chips is all we need. Burgers are delicious. Pizzas are good but I perfer a more tasty sauce. Salads are nice and fresh with usual lemon dressing. In store it is cash only. You can order and pay online. Currently no delivery options. The waiting area can get full quickly. Seriously recommended to anyone that can get to the area."

"Definitely the best chicken shish with grilled onions and peppers. Fresh salad is always very generous and being able to order online these days does help with the decision of what to have as the queue used to be quite long somedays."
