Old School in the best way. Immaculately clean, exceptionally fresh sandwich and made with care, a smile and good honest service. Prices are very fair, a whopping chicken sandwich brimming with fresh salad, tender white chicken and really fresh bread was $10 - a proper sanga. The shawarmas are legendary but again the sangas are fresh made to order. Do yourself a favour and call in, 2 lovely outside tables as well as Plus there is free meter 2 hour parking out front (dont forget to put your rego in the machine).

Today I tried my first lamb shawarma. I am more familiar with kebabs, which is what I compared it to. It is a little bit different to a kebab and may be superior. The meat was much better quality than what you get in a kebab and the vegetables were crispy, instead of soggy. The spices were vibrant and the garlic sauce was punchy without making the bread soggy. I loved it. If you're going for tasty fast food, this may be one of the healthier options.

My first Shawarma. It was similar to a kebab/yiros but different in its own way. Very polite staff and also quick service. I was in and out in under 15 mins. The vibe was a mix of classic Aussie takeaway meets traditional Lebanese. Central location and all around decent lunch suggestion.

At 206 Moorabool Street you will find one of the most iconic institutes in Geelong,Sam's Cafe. From midday onwards there's a steady stream of hungry loyal customers snaking their way out onto the footpath awaiting their delicious shawarmas and yes I'm one them. Spiced lamb mixed with fresh lettuce,tomatoes and tabouleh with garlic sauce all wrapped up in flat bread and toasted until golden and crispy. My first taste of this deliciousness fell into my mouth back in 90s and I can honestly say they still taste the same. Do your taste buds a favour and get a shawarma. Bloody delicious 😋. Oh and their crinkle cut chips with a decent sprinkle of chicken salt ain't bad either from what...

Best lamb kebab on Planet Earth and served by the most lovely people. I had a lamb shawarma (kebab) minus the garlic sauce, chilli and coleslaw. I had sweet chilli sauce added. Soooo yummy. Beautiful thin toasted wrap bread so as to not overpower the other ingredients. Perfect balance and ratio of ingredients. Amazing tabouleh... and the lamb... my gosh. So succulent, and perfect quality meat with no distracting fat chunks or grissely bits. Such a beautiful combo of flavours. This is now on my list of favourite places to eat in Victoria. Thanks so much team,...

When I lived in Geelong over 10 years ago I used to frequent Sam's Cafe on a regular basis for their amazing Shawarma's. My husband and I recently moved back to Geelong and I was very excited to see that Sam's Cafe was still in business, with George at the helm. My first Shawama after 10 years was just as I remembered them - delicious. No kebab comes close. Looking forward to another Shawarma this weekend. Thank you George for never straying from the recipe and quality. Like they say, "when it's not broke,...
