I’m thrilled I got one last visit in before working from home commenced as sadly a one hour trip each way for a lunchtime kebab is a bit of a trek. I’m seriously missing them and holding on to the delicious memory of my combo kebab that I had literally two days before our office closed.
The variety here is so plentiful, there is at least ten different salads and ten types of dips to chose from. The menu is extensive too offering felafels, regular kebabs, boreks and pides just to name a few. I haven’t been able to find a local equivalent that comes close

After today’s visit I read back over my original review and was astounded there’s been like a 25% price rise on the combo kebab since my first visit. I’m pretty sure that’s not inflation in the last three years! The combo kebab has become quite unreasonable for a takeaway lunch price point particularly considering Don Don’s down the street does bargain basement dishes and even offers $1 wine. I’ll order the standard kebab going forward
Updated again
My colleagues and I realised it’s May and we haven’t been for a lunchtime kebab run all year which had to be swiftly rectified. A combo kebab absolutely hit the spot although my coworker was decidedly less impressed when we got back to the office and she realised her request of no onion had been seriously denied which so much packed in there she originally thought it was lettuce!
Further update
Given the price rise that occurred this year over the past few months I’ve changed my standard order from the combo pack to a combo kebab. This is like $6 cheaper and equally yummy. Unfortunately it can be a bit hit and miss because if they are very busy they get distracted and the bread stays on the hot plate too long becoming hard and completely altering the taste. When they get the bread right though they are hard to beat
UPDATE
Inflation has more then hit here with my go to dish now coming in at $16.90 making it a bit overpriced for a casual work lunch when it’s coupled with a reduction in portion. Definitely not frequently weekly like I used to but still worth a visit on occasion
Original review
Today is Friday which means I'll be making my weekly pilgrimage to the aptly named Kebabs R Yummy with my team for my combo pack. It's taken some time but I've finally got everyone in the office accepting that the pleasure of a kebab is not solely reserved for the early morning hours post a solid drinking session. The people who work there are friendly beyond belief and for $14.90 you get two types of meat, two salads and two duos with plenty of Turkish bread. I'm so attached to this place I didn't know what to do when they were closed over Christmas. Go check it out
Small and assuming shop, you could walk past this place without noticing its presence, but their kebabs are not to be missed! I was recommended by a local to try their lamb kebabs and I'm so glad I did! Popped over during lunch time, not overly crowded, the lady behind the counter was amazingly friendly and put together a delicious kebab. I would expect to pay $14 elsewhere for the size of what she gave me, but this was dished up to me for $10. I would definitely be returning!
Love the HSPs. Great lunch time option; friendly staff, yummy food and decent portions for the price. **************************************
