INSANE

I’ve tried what the pitta in Brighton and it was delicious. Came here for my London craving and it definitely hit the spot. Quick, cheap, tasty gyros!!! Would recommend!

Chipbox always

Have been eating What the Pitta since they had a spot at The Pump in Shoreditch and people kept stealing their signage 🫢 My go to is the chip box and everyone I have ever introduced to them has loved their food.

Best vegan kebabs in town

I'm Turkish so I grew up eating lamb kebabs. These vegan ones taste even BETTER! And obviously there was no suffering involved so they're better in every way. Plus they sell vegan baklava here! Amazing

Pros: Delicious, Vegan baklava

Quick and easy.

Nice quick and easy wraps. I ordered the vegan doner kebab. It was made quickly and had tons of fresh veggies in it. Good sauce as well. #Veganuary

Vegan kebab? Sorted!

The lovely people at What The Pitta have absolutely nailed good kebabs. I had a Gyros and my wife had a Doner. Our non-vegan friend had a Doner too, and they were all delicious.
There's a wealth of vegan eateries locally, but this one definitely deserves a visit.

I dream about What the Pitta

Just everything you want in a kebab takeaway. I usually only get the doner as I am just utterly in love with it. So tasty.

Pros: Tasty, Lots of locations , Do meal deals

The gyros are too good

Tried the chicken gyros at Vegan Camp Out and I can’t explain how good it was. Perfection!

Amazing food!

We dropped in for lunch and the food was amazing! We had the mezze 🫒 box and the donner chip box. Both were amazing. Price was good and all the food was piping hot. Salad and dips were all fresh 👍🏻

First Time Reviewer, Regular Customer

I've probably eaten What The Pitta and Temple of Seitan more than anything else in terms of London Vegan meals out - I just love this place, the store in Camden is also great. Had a delicious and very reasonable Christmas wrap this year, so delicious - one area for minor improvement would just be ensuring the sour cherry drink in the black can is always in stock, as I love it a lot and this is not always the case! Otherwise, flawless!

Vegan kebab

Ten minutes wait, friendly service, tasty soy chunks but bread was a bit dry. Many sauces to choose from (I shouldn’t have asked for two sauces, because it got difficult to eat). Big portion for around 10-11 euro.

Pros: Quick service, Priceworthy

Cons: Limited seating , No toilet

The pittas are to die for🤤

What the pitta is in a great location on Brick Lane so had to pay a visit.
The menu had a lot of choice but we decided to get the doner mezze and the falafel mezze.
Both were full with lots of salad and pittas. The pittas were so soft and fresh!!
The falafel and the doner meat was so tasty- deffo worth a visit!

Pros: Lots of options , Tasty food, Good location

Fantastic food! This is by far the best vegan kebab we've eaten so far. The new Chick'n Gyros it's also unreal. Portions are huge and the staff were lovely, very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!

Pros: Big portions, Friendly staff

Best vegan doner!

Not the first time I went to this place and still loving it!

It's a bit expensive to my opinion (that's why I put 4 stars and not 5) but it's worth it!

I really like that they propose a kid meal that include french fries with vegan nuggets and a drink, my kid loved it!

Also, even if the doners and the kid meal were in disposable packaging when we asked for a glass for our son we received a reusable steel cup 👍🏻.

Pros: Reaaaaaally good, Kid meal

Cons: Little bit expensive for a doner

Delicious kebabs

Never been to this branch before but not disappointed. More choice than last time I visited. Marked down as extremely limited gluten free options (basically chips, as the falafel is rolled in flour) and the food was very salty. Nice to see a kids meal although would have been good to see a kids donor wrap option too.

Pros: Loads of options, Kids meal

Cons: Limited gluten free, No kids doner, Bit too much salt

I'll Revisit Next Time I'm in London

We went here in 2020 and I had a great experience. Delicious and unique flavour and texture. Definitely try it out!
