Food Quality

Pros:

  • "Arguably one of the best Donner Wraps that I've had in a long, long time."
  • "Great quality of meet, the crispy kebab bread is really delicious and the salads with sauces are second to none."
  • "Really good quality bread toasted almost to a waffle. Filled with fresh sliced donner meat and you can tell it's a good quality donner not the cheap fatty one."
  • "The meat was high quality and we love the mix with beef and chicken."
  • "I am honestly amazed of how good the Original was. I have had lots of kebabs before, in quite a few countries."
  • "Fresh bread & salad & generous amount of meats, & the fries are 100% better than McDonald's."
  • "The food from this place is usually amazing, I think it has changed staff??"
  • "Absolutely outstanding kebabs."

Cons:

  • "The food took over 25mins, and when it arrived the mini kebab was cold! not even warm."
  • "Second bad experience. Is this a joke? Is this what you call a quaesadilla? Seriously? First time you sent me cold donor and second time you charged £6 for this joke."
  • "The food was not as good as expected. It was extremely oily to the point I was sick halfway through."
  • "food was way too salty, manager gives nothing but attitude, couldn’t even drink from our own bottles of water due to a new store policy."
  • "I ordered a gym donner box with separate fries and asked for fries separate to the box the box arrived after 20 minutes with the fries in it."
  • "When I go back I'd just get the original as a meal and that's it. Was so good and tasty."
  • "Ordered food from here last Friday... Poor service, staff weren't helpful at all and need to be trained better. Portion sizes are quite small given the cost."
  • "Food was cold, asked them to heat it up still after heating up food was cold. Tasteless no sauce, dry wasted money."

Service and Staff Attitude

Pros:

  • "Our whole experience from the second we came in to the minute we left was an exceptional experience."
  • "It was fresh, quick service, very polite staff and overall an amazing place and experience."
  • "I just wanted to share a review to compliment Anabela on her exceptional service."
  • "The girl on the till was excellent and explained the meal options in a professional and pleasant way."
  • "I was looking forward to trying GDK in Oldham as I work there. Whilst walking past today I saw a delivery of wrapped frozen donners taking place."
  • "Went to this place to see what the “hype” was about, when we got there a lady who frankly did not understand a word of English served us she could not operate the till either."
  • "The first takeaway that doesn’t accept £50 note. Waited in the que to order for 15 mins after placing order was told to rejoin the que to order on the next till which accepts cards."
  • "Really impressed. Table service, high quality tasty food."

Cons:

  • "Absolutely disgusting behaviour from our service lady. My 9 year old sister had a mango juice out and we were told to put it away."
  • "I ordered a delivery on Uber eats from this place on the 26/06/23 at 5.30 pm and asked for delivery not before 8pm as there would be no one home."
  • "food was way too salty, manager gives nothing but attitude, couldn’t even drink from our own bottles of water due to a new store policy."
  • "So I ordered to eat in at 10:35 but when i went to collect food she sad at 10:40 we cannot eat in because they are closing."
  • "Sadly I have to give this place a 1 star. My partner decided to have a treat for our lads 13th birthday tea."
  • "Food is outstanding but staff are a disgrace especially the oversized girl with an even bigger attitude."
  • "Customer service, food and hygiene wasn’t great."
  • "Service was terrible especially from the manager and the employee called ashleigh rolling her eyes when asking for a tissue."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "The prices are reasonable and it's definitely worth the money."
  • "Great place and excellent service. Slightly pricier than your average takeaway kebab shop, but for the service, comfortable seating and food+presentation, it is certainly worth it."
  • "A little pricey but well worth it IMO."
  • "Great tasting kebabs and doners. Has many good meal deals and overall the rates are reasonable given the excellent quality and quantity of food."
  • "Best food Oldham has to offer. Having been sick of the usual Chinese, Indian and pizza that's on offer me and my Mrs really wanted something different."
  • "Would give it no star if possible utterly disappointing and the staff and management team is atrocious I've enjoyed dining at branches of the franchise in Ilford, Birmingham and preston and I was overjoyed to find that an establishment had opened up more closer to me."
  • "Very disappointed with the Oldham branch, missed items off the order, mislabeled my item as a takeaway instead of eat in."
  • "Absolutely rubbish, orders constantly wrong, stone cold upon delivery despite being sub 0.5miles away, phone line is pointless."

Cons:

  • "I ordered two donner mix boxes with chips and cheese one was large and one regular size. I paid £1.50 for a large one, when I got both Donner mix boxes I was so confused because both boxes were the same size and looked equally filled up."
  • "The meat was high quality and we love the mix with beef and chicken. The Original german doner kebab is a big portion a bit pricey for Oldham £8 as a meal but the doner box with fries is £5 as a meal which is reasonable."
  • "The food from this place is usually amazing, I think it has changed staff?? Food arrived cold I was very disappointed Because I felt like my order had been rushed chips not even cooked, very undercooked."
  • "I ordered my meal online and picked it up from the Oldham branch this evening. The prices are far too high. I wouldn’t be rushing back anytime soon."
  • "Ordered donner and chio in a box with a drink, cost £7.49, shocked to see I got few pieces of meat and made up of mostly chips, that box probably had 50p worth of trade price food and a drink trade price of about 50p to then charge £7.49 is ridiculous."
  • "The portions are small for the price. I had the 7.99 doner kebab and the doner box with cheesy chips for 6.99...there were more red onions on the Doner kebab than the actual kebab."
  • "Waited for over 35 minutes for a chicken donner meal, got a cold beef donner meal Instead, wasted time and what's the German donner thing? it's just normal donner, staff are very nice and respectful and courteous to customers unlike the owner who does not know how to speak to customers."
  • "2 hours ago we ordered from uber. on system showed is arrived. but food didn't come. we phoned them and manager said that order was picked up. please come and collect food which is been seted for two hours no apologies."
