Thank you Tea Eilish - Edit
What a lovely experience I had this week visiting the Brick Lane store. Very tasty food and super friendly staff. I'd like to highlight a girl, her name is Tea, she's extremely nice. So friendly and even played Billie Eilish songs for me. Very cute. She made my day. Thank you What The Pitta and Tea Eilish.

No Döner compares - Edit
This is the best Döner ever, and many meat eating friends prefer this over a meat Döner. Get the classic Döner Kebab as a meal with the baklava- so soo delicious. The bread, the „meat“, the Sauce, the fillings. A DREAM. Top tip: ask them to cut the kebab on half (they’re really big and if like me you can’t finish the whole thing you can have the other half for lunch the next day)

Hits the spot - Edit
I got the doner kebab. It was delicious and HUUUGE! I’m not sure I’d describe it as doner though, more like a spiced chicken.

Worth the visit - Edit
I’ve been trying to get a what the pitta for some time. Each time I’ve visited london it’s been in between Christmas and new year and it’s been shut. This time I FINALLY got one and it did not disappoint. I had the vegan doner kebab with garlic Mayo and chilli sauce with all the salad with chips and WOW! The only way I can describe it is like an authentic kebab you get when you visit Turkey. I always tell my partner before I went vegan the best kebabs I ever had were in Turkey and now he knows what I mean. The doner is so taste and seasoned to perfections. The salad is so fresh and crunchy and it was drowned in sauce. The chips were cooked perfectly snd the drink selection was large. It was well worth the money, the portion size was huge and we were gutted to have to leave some. I will definitely be visiting what the pitta again as soon as I can!

Didn’t last long… in a good way - Edit
The fresh wrap was delicious and held the ‘meat’ and salad. Unfortunately I forgot to take a photo as it was devoured fairly quickly.

Stays consistent - Edit
I've been a big fan of What the Pitta for a number of years now. From the humble stalls at Vegfest, they have always stayed consistent and on point with their offerings.

Sensational vegan doner - Edit
My friend and I share a doner wrap with extra doner meat, 20 nuggets, onion rings and curly fries every time we deliveroo. We keep trying to try something else but always fall back on what we know we love. I took a Turkish friend once whose dad ran a chain of kebab shops, and she loved it. So that’s a pretty good recommendation right there.

Great food - Edit
I had a mezze box, and was a little worried it would be greasy looking at some of the doner photos, but it was lovely! Fresh tasting salad with couscous, falafel, tatziki and hummus. Very nice

Best Junk food in London! - Edit
I love this place, every time I’m in Shoreditch I can’t help myself but going to eat here. Their kebab plates are huge and you can put all sort of things as a topping, on the base there’s french fries. I’m hungry even just thinking about it!

Like the old days - Edit
As a reformed omnivore, I have to admit, I did miss a good doner kebab, minus all the cruelty and murder. But this really hits that craving right on the target. The fake meat is almost TOO similar if you know what I mean, but they really did what they set out to do. Not sure I like to Box park setting, but was good food nonetheless.

Can’t believe it’s not meat - Edit
This was one of the greatest meals I’ve had in a long time. Tastes meaty instead of a sub-par meat alternative but so fresh and light. Long wait because it’s so popular and busy but well worth the wait!!
Read morePros: Tastes like meat, Fresh and light

Nice concept - Edit
I ordered the vegan mezze box with vöner. The portion is colourful with vegetables and couscous and a generous portion of marinated soy chunks. I have had better vöner yet the dish did the trick for my hungry state.
