Good scran - Edit
Not an extensive menu but it didn’t have to be. Really good food and good in the summer. Maybe a little pricy? A main, side and drink for £12 but I wasn’t opposed to paying it. All in all very good.

Preis Leistung perfekt - Edit
Wir waren erst skeptisch, aber ein Laden wie dieser so hoch bewertet und vegan. Aber es war wirklich lecker. Der Döner, die Falafel und die verschiedenen Pommes. Alles lecker.

Pros: Auswahl schmackhaft , Sehr gut
Cons: Tatsächlich mehr ein Imbiss

Go to delivery food. - Edit
Im a regular here and for good reason!
Read morethe food is a great portion size for the price and tastes just amazing. It can get a bit soggy at the bottom but it’s worth it for the taste!
The sweet treats are just perfect. The biscoff cheese cake is the best vegan cheesecake I’ve ever tried!

Flavorful gyros - Edit
We got the doner gyro and chicken gyro. The doner was a little chewier than the chicken. Both delicious and amazing texture and flavor. Very filling and great price for what you get.
Read moreThe staff was very friendly and informative.
There isn’t much seating but we were able to grab a table by the door. Overall very good and I would recommend!

Amazing staff above all else - Edit
Popped in for dinner with my 7 year old - doner gyro for me, nugs, chips and all the onion rings for her. Had a lovely time and left, happy and full, for a wander down Brick Lane. My daughter realised she had left a small wooden heart that she carries with her wrapped in a napkin on the tray so we went back and the staff very kindly looked through the bin until they found it for her.

Consistently excellent - Edit
I’ve probably consumed a billion of their doners by now (for that, I can thank lockdown and a generous delivery radius) and can safely say you’re guaranteed 100% consistent excellence. Definitely in a league of its own.
Read morePros: Stuffed, Customisable, Flavour ride
Cons: Not for the GF, really., Closes a bit early for walk-ins, Expect to wear half of it in your lap

Chipbox always - Edit
Have been eating What the Pitta since they had a spot at The Pump in Shoreditch and people kept stealing their signage 🫢 My go to is the chip box and everyone I have ever introduced to them has loved their food.

Best vegan kebabs in town - Edit
I'm Turkish so I grew up eating lamb kebabs. These vegan ones taste even BETTER! And obviously there was no suffering involved so they're better in every way. Plus they sell vegan baklava here! Amazing

Vegan kebab? Sorted! - Edit
The lovely people at What The Pitta have absolutely nailed good kebabs. I had a Gyros and my wife had a Doner. Our non-vegan friend had a Doner too, and they were all delicious.

First Time Reviewer, Regular Customer - Edit
I've probably eaten What The Pitta and Temple of Seitan more than anything else in terms of London Vegan meals out - I just love this place, the store in Camden is also great. Had a delicious and very reasonable Christmas wrap this year, so delicious - one area for minor improvement would just be ensuring the sour cherry drink in the black can is always in stock, as I love it a lot and this is not always the case! Otherwise, flawless!

Vegan kebab - Edit
Ten minutes wait, friendly service, tasty soy chunks but bread was a bit dry. Many sauces to choose from (I shouldn’t have asked for two sauces, because it got difficult to eat). Big portion for around 10-11 euro.
