Yalla Beirut in Peterborough has become one of my absolute favourites. They serve the most authentic and delicious Lebanese food you can find anywhere in the UK! Their Falafel wrap is fresh and perfectly crispy. What I love even more is that they’re happy to customize dishes based on your preference. I always ask for some extra chili sauce to make it spicier, and it’s just perfect every time. Their Chicken Shawarma Wrap is another must-try!! You can choose to have it with salad or authentic lebanese style, and both versions taste incredible. Another one of my favorites is their Loaded Shawarma. It comes with hot fries, tender shawarma, and a mix of sauces that make it unbelievably good, especially on a cold day. It’s pure comfort in a bowl! The owners are the kindest people I have ever met and always prioritize every customers need. Highly recommend Yalla Beirut if you love good food made with care and flavour. Can’t wait to go back again!

Absolutely love Yalla Beirut! The staff are incredibly polite, kind, and always smiling — they have such a calm and happy attitude! The service is amazing; they welcome everyone with warmth and generosity. They often give free sandwiches and organize fun competitions with great prizes. I love how they care about kids too — if a child comes with good grades, they get a free sandwich or a nice discount! That’s just the sweetest thing ever. The place is super clean, very well organized, and the food is so delicious, rich in flavor, and full of authentic Lebanese taste. Everything about this restaurant makes you feel at home — from the friendly vibe to the amazing food. Highly recommend Yalla Beirut to everyone! 💛🇱🇧

I had an amazing experience at this Lebanese restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious — full of authentic flavors and perfectly seasoned. The hummus was creamy, the shawarma tender, and everything so fresh. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere felt warm and inviting. I’ll definitely be coming back soon

Yala Beirut is an absolute must-try! The food was beyond delicious every bite tasted like home. The shawarma was perfectly seasoned, juicy, and full of authentic Lebanese spices. The hummus and fries were spot on too fresh, flavorful, and made with care. But what made the experience truly special was the amazing staff! Everyone was so friendly, welcoming, and full of positive energy. You can feel how much love they put into both the food and the service. It’s rare to find a food that delivers this level of quality and warmth. Can’t wait to go back again

I swear the city needed a proper showarma place! By far the BEST showarma I’ve had in the uk, and do not get me started on that garlic sauce, truly truly Lebanese!! And the falafel sandwich just hits differently with the crunch on the outside and softness on the inside and all the veggies and tahini!! The owners are absolutely delightful it’s like always having a party everytime I visit their food truck! Wishing you guys all the best cause you deserve it!!

Incredible Lebanese food 😍 We ordered a spread from and it was nothing short of amazing. Every dish was packed with authentic flavours, fresh ingredients and incredible attention to detail. The kibbeh was perfectly crispy on the outside and tender inside. The shawarma was juicy, well seasoned and had that perfect balance of smoky and savoury flavours. The battata harra was perfection. The hummus was silky smooth and rich. The fattoush and tabbouleh were fresh and zesty And the falafel? Crispy, golden perfection on the outside, soft and full of flavour inside. There were so many more dishes and I don’t have a bad word word to say about any of them, they were authentic and packed with flavour, couldn’t stop eating 😍 and all my guests loved it! Everything was beautifully packed and arrived fresh, warm and ready to enjoy. It really felt like a homemade Lebanese feast delivered straight to our door. If you are craving authentic, high quality Lebanese food, look no further. Highly recommended and we will definitely be ordering again soon.

By far the nicest shawarma I’ve ever had outside of the Middle East, not to mention how nice the owners/staff are to me and my family whenever we come. Couldn’t recommend highly enough.

If you’re looking for food that feels like a warm hug and a flavor explosion all at once, this Lebanese street food van is the place to go. From the moment you walk up, the aromas of freshly grilled meats, warm spices, and toasted Lebanese bread pulls you in—and the first bite confirms you’ve struck gold. The falafel is perfectly crisp on the outside yet soft and herby inside, the shawarma melts in your mouth with layers of rich seasoning, and the garlic sauce… I could eat it by the spoonful. Everything is made to order, and you can taste the love and tradition behind each dish. What sets this van apart isn’t just the food—it’s the atmosphere. The team is genuinely welcoming, happy to chat, and quick to recommend their favourites and are genuinely the nicest people you will ever meet. It feels less like grabbing a quick bite and more like being invited into someone’s kitchen. Generous portions, authentic flavors, and prices that make you do a double take (in the best way). Whether you’re a lifelong lover of Lebanese cuisine or trying it for the first time, you’ll leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit. An absolute gem on wheels—don’t miss it.

I’ve more or less tried everything on Yalla Beirut’s menu, and every single dish is absolutely delicious! Having spent a year and a half living in Lebanon, I can honestly say their food is as authentic as it comes — full of flavour, freshness, and that true Lebanese taste. My personal favourite is the Shish Taouk — it’s perfection! The team are super friendly and always welcoming. Highly recommend to anyone who loves proper, authentic Lebanese food.

I'm not one for usually leaving reviews, but I do recommend this place to absolutely everyone! Getting lunch here has quickly become one the highlights of my week! It's the best food in the city centre by a mile - always consistently fresh, excellent quality and great value. The customer service is exceptional too - and you are always greeted by a friendly smile.
