Ive had a kebab or two in my life and the quality here was alright but its just outrageous pricing compared to literally anywhere else. way too expensive.

    Really disappointing. Dry, tasteless just no effort involved. Got a pita soulvaki, it’s minced chicken squashed into a sausage with no tzatziki, no Halloumi, dry pita that breaks up. Chips were dry and hard. 1st and last time to go here.

    I Was sold jerk chicken... we received a dry minced pre made pre shaped meats seeming out of a box, that was dry and tasted of nothing with a sweet sauce with again seemed pre made off the self. The Chips were nice but over all an absolute rip off for chips and coleslaw. we called back through only to be argued with that it is not misleading being sold as 'jerk chicken', it should be sold as sweet sauced mashed dry meat which would be accurate. Anyway heres a picture of the scrumptious 'chicken' mashed stuff 😋

    Amazing food and the service was phenomenal. It felt like a very welcoming environment. Every bite was like a taste of heaven. I’ve recommended so many of my friends this place and they’ve all also fallen in love with it. It’s always a pleasant experience when I get pita box!

    We went to pita box on a Saturday evening. One staff member was polite but the other two were very weird and zombified and didn't know anything about customer service. No smile, just serious faces looking at you. We had a burger meal each which was just a standard frozen meal which you make at home. It was a very average tasting meal. We later heard the staff member who was polite to us talking about how we only came into the place because of him selling the products to us. I don't know about the rest of the food, but the chicken burgers are what you make at home but less tastier. We definitely won't be going back after the unusual customer experience.

    I had pita box for the second time today. The first time I got a tummy ache. Today I decided to give it a second chance as everyone deserves one. Halfway through my wrap I discovered a hair in the wrap. I am done. Lost my trust in the hygiene of this place. Please be better.

    Avoid... the portion sizes are embarrasing for the price... wouldnt normally write a bad review but was soo embarassing... the chicken shwarma rationed like it was gold.

  • 5/5 Amanda 7 months ago on Google

    One of the few healthy halal places to eat in Altrincham. Food is tasty and healthy and the staff were really helpful especially to my young son.

  • 4/5 James W. 10 months ago on Google
    Friendly staff and nice pitta. Slightly over priced for what you get but the food was good. Similar style set up to subway but for pitta style food...

    The best fries in town and food is really nice. Only hard to stay indoors as the shop is really cold...

  • 1/5 Annabel R. 2 years ago on Google
    The staff need to be changed, they have no idea what they are doing and how to serve customers, really un-experienced. Shame as I was looking forward eating here!

  • 1/5 Neil T. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice food but the owner needs to learn some manners. Just been in today , paid for the order was handed the order by the owner and not so much as a smile or thank you. He just handed me my order , I said thank then he just put his head down and started checking his phone. Shame cos as i say the food is nice , but I wont be going back there again. The owner must think he is above his customers

    Amazing experience at Pita Box Altrincham, very friendly and welcoming staff who talk you through the menu options and recommendations, the food is outstanding and is a taste sensation every time! Myself and family come time and time again, would recommend visiting this place if you are local! Would love to see outdoor seating here too, in the summer it would be a great spot to sit out.

    Me and my partner ordered this to Wythenshawe hospital as we were having a lot stay following the birth of our son. The flavours were great, portions very generous and it was the best meal we have had in weeks! 100% be back - perfect for these hot summer nights!

    Good selection of Asian food from West, South and South East Asia. Good concept and reasonable price. Definitely has return value.

  • 2/5 jordan e. 3 years ago on Google
    Very friendly service, unfortunately very stingy with the portions and extras. With the pita you get one single salad, which makes you sad after you’ve seen how much of a choice they have available. Also I bought a large box and it didn’t come with any salad at all, they even wanted extra money just for some jalapeños on top. I’ve never been to a kebab place in the UK or around the world that is so stingy.

    I ordered veg-burger and it was sumptuous, delicious and worth the price; Meal deals were reasonable and worth; Service was quick, hygienic and polite; Highly recommended!! I am definitely going to visit again.

  • 5/5 jimbo R. 3 years ago on Google
    This was my first visit although I have thought about coming in previously. My daughters had already been in and both really loved the food. I went for the chicken tikka without of the spicy slaw and some spicy potatoes and it was spot on. The skin on fries that come with the meal are great as well. I will most definitely be back in for more.
