The Kebab House
If you ever find yourself wandering down Milkstone Road in Rochdale with a serious craving for something hot, meaty, and satisfying, The Kebab House at 83 Milkstone Rd is a spot you’ll want to know about. This place isn’t just your average kebab shop-it’s a go-to for locals looking for flavour-packed meals, late-night bites, and that familiar smoky aroma of a charcoal grill wafting from the kitchen.
Let’s start with the star of the show: the Donner Kebab. It’s everything you want in a classic-juicy, thinly shaved meat, sizzling off the spit, tucked into soft naan or pitta with crisp salad and a generous drizzle of their homemade sauce. Can’t decide between options? The Chicken Donner brings a lighter touch with its savoury spices and perfect char, while the Lamb Doner Kebab delivers a deeper, richer flavour profile that hits all the right notes.
But if you really want to do it big, go straight for The Kebab House Special on Naan. This thing is a feast: layered with mixed meats, a mountain of fresh salad, and sauces that range from mild garlic to fiery chilli. It’s the kind of dish that makes you pause mid-bite just to appreciate what’s happening in your mouth. And yes, you’ll need both hands.
For those who like things on the grilled side, the Tandoori Chicken and Lamb Tikka are well worth the attention. Both are marinated in bold spices, grilled to smoky perfection, and come out tender and flavorful. If you’ve got a thing for charred edges and juicy centers, these won’t disappoint.
Now, maybe kebabs aren’t your thing (hard to believe, but okay), there’s plenty more to dive into. The Hamburger is a sleeper hit-simple, juicy, and satisfying. For something snackable, the Chicken Nuggets and Fries or Chicken Wings with Peri Peri Fries make a solid combo, especially if you’re on the go or ordering in. Need something with a Middle Eastern twist? Try the Shawarma or Gyro, both filled with sliced meat, herbs, and a burst of freshness that balances the richness.
Don’t sleep on the sides either-French Fries are always crisp, and the Samosas? Golden, flaky, and packed with flavor. And if you like to mix and match, grab a few small plates to create your own meal. There’s something about having a spread of grilled meats, sauces, and dips that just feels right.
And let’s talk desserts. Yes, The Kebab House has dessert-and not the forgettable kind. Think Ferrero Rocher Cheesecake or a warm slice of Jam Coconut Sponge. Both are decadent and surprisingly memorable, especially when you didn’t expect dessert to be this good at a kebab place.
You’ll also find a full range of drinks and sauces to customize your meal just the way you like it. A cold Coca-Cola after a spicy chicken doner? Yes please.
In terms of experience, it’s straightforward and unfussy. The shop offers dine-in, takeaway, and delivery, making it super flexible whether you’re popping in solo or ordering food while binge-watching Netflix at home. It’s a popular pick for dinner and late-night food, especially if you’re after halal eats or a quick bite that doesn’t sacrifice flavour for speed.
While it’s not the most accessible spot in terms of wheelchair access (no designated car park or accessible toilet), the focus here is clearly on food-flavourful, consistent, and always satisfying. If you’re someone who appreciates real, robust, spice-driven dishes and no-nonsense service, The Kebab House is the kind of place you’ll keep coming back to.
Reviews
This was our first visit to The Kebab House and it was long overdue! From the moment we entered we received a warm welcome from the staff who were busy preparing the online orders. I loved the open kitchen vibe as you can see everything was clean and being cooked fresh. The food was amazing and I felt it was very reasonably priced! The red donner was amazing and everything else was cooked really well. I would definelty go for the garlic naan as they are soft and light which make them moreish! We sat upstairs and the staff bring your drinks and food to your table which was a nice touch. They even offered to put the AC on for us if we needed it upstairs when they brought our drinks. On our way out the team checked with us if we enjoyed the food and if everything was ok with the sevice which was so nice. If i had to pick three reasons why I would recommend for you to visit the Kebab House it would be: 1. The food! 2. The service! 3. The price! We will be definitely be visiting again as this is now most certainly going to be one of our go-to places!
#KebabDelight The Kebab House in Rochdale deserves all the stars! Fantastic customer service and hands down the BEST lamb and chicken donner on the planet. Forget the influencer hype; this place is the REAL deal! Highly recommend this halal food heaven for its consistent, delicious flavors. I've been coming here for 10 years, and the donner recipe remains as tasty as ever. Generous portions, authentic taste – a must-try! #KebabMagic #HalalHeaven #halal
Ordered 27/06/2025 via UberEats for delivery. Delivery came in the timescales specified as had a number of stops along way. The burger box, donner meat was good (needs a bit more flavour/seasoning), chips were ok, the chicken steak burger selected was good but the burger bun was dry/cardboard which kind of let it down. The wings were appreciated by another family member as not boneless meat which is what I prefer. The Salaam Cola was good and first time tried. Rest of options family liked Would recommend to try
A* 10/10 Excellent customer service One of the best kebab houses in the whole Of the north ! Kebab was fresh and tasty Service was great Overall positive experience Would recommend !
We came here after a lecture and found the place to be a vividly vibrant atmosphere with a sense of character you don’t necessarily feel in most new places that pop up in Bradford (my city). Kebab house was a spot on recommendation from a friend. We rate it a solid 8/9 out of 10 The staff were friendly, from the sons owner at the till. To the young lads serving and cleaning. I’d asked for some tissue not only did he point it out but came to put it on our table. Good respectful lads and God willingly they’ll go far in life. Naans were a bit small but I think it’s time we cut the carbs & increase the protein - so works well! Will be my spot when I’m visiting the city again.
