Kebabish Original

Kebabish Original on Longbridge Road is the Barking outpost of a well-regarded Pakistani grill chain, known for charcoal-cooked meats rather than the standard doner-and-chips template. The menu centres on tikka rolls — grilled chicken or lamb tikka wrapped in fresh bread — alongside mixed grills, peri peri whole chicken, seekh kebabs and dal channa. The Peshawari naan is a recommended accompaniment. Reviewers from 2024 praise the naans, grilled chicken and kebab rolls as fresh and well-made, with consistently energetic staff and fast service. The halal kitchen draws its core trade from the substantial South Asian community along Longbridge Road, and the charcoal grill adds a smoky depth that sets it apart from the simpler fried-chicken operations on the same stretch.
