Disappointing Experience After Years of Loyalty
I used to visit Berlin doner once or twice every month and couldn’t recommend it highly enough to friends and family. It was my go-to spot, and I always looked forward to the fresh and generous portions. However, my last visit was nothing short of disappointing, and I doubt I’ll ever return.
I had traveled quite a distance this time and was feeling particularly hungry, so I asked the owner—someone I thought valued my loyalty—if he could make my order a bit extra. I was buying three portions, and instead of receiving something that matched my request, all three portions were crammed into the same box. To add insult to injury, I was charged an extra £2.50 per portion. That’s £7.50 more for what amounted to barely anything extra, just squeezed into a single box.
It wasn’t about the money. It was about the principle. After years of loyalty, being treated this way felt like a real slap in the face. Money might not mean everything, but loyalty certainly does—and clearly, that’s not valued here. Unfortunately, I won’t be returning, and I’ll no longer be recommending Berlin...

I must also say that the meat itself is lacking considerably in flavour, I understand that foods are often flavoured to suit the audience to which it is being sold but even a little salt would go a long way.
I have given Berlin Döner kebab 2 stars because it is better and more authentic, in some aspects, than most English kebab shops. However, as it stands I've ordered from here twice (to give it a real chance) and both times the food suffered from the same short-comings; lack of flavour and...
Read moreThe food had a very bad smell + in my opinion meat wasn't even spiced enough. It's not even this kind of lamb meat that I was expecting for in Kebab. The grossest kebab I've eaten so far here, in Luton.
Trust me I really rarely do a review, but I also want to let people know what they will probably get.
EDIT: I can agree about the meat, but it must also be tasty, don't you think? I didn't mention it, but I also had some cartilage in the meat, which I had to spit out after chewing. Maybe it was your bad day - ok, but it's an honest review at least.
EDIT2: I meant I agree what you think about a meat and as u wrote "10% meat and the rest only god knows", but u still don't understand that if u prepare your food like no one does it also...
