Ali Baba

Ali Baba is one of Lancaster's longest-established kebab shops, trading on North Road since 1985. The menu runs to doner and shish kebabs, falafel wraps, pizzas, and burgers, with the vegan falafel with houmous and house-made chilli sauce drawing particular praise from plant-based diners. Portions are generous and prices are kept accessible, which has built a loyal local following over four decades. Reviews are mixed on consistency — some customers rate the kebabs highly while others flag variable portion sizes — but the central North Road location makes it a convenient stop for Lancaster city centre visitors. A well-worn neighbourhood institution with decades of history behind it.
