Spotlight: Doner G

Authentic Turkish doner kebabs, traditional pide, smash burgers, and baklava on the High Street — fresh ingredients and fast delivery from 3pm daily.

Gosforth.org·

The kebab has come a long way from its reputation as a post-pub afterthought. Doner G at 233 High Street is part of that evolution — a Turkish-focused eatery serving authentic doner kebabs, traditional pide, smash burgers, pizzas, and baklava made fresh every day.

The food

The doner kebab here is the proper article — seasoned meat cooked on a vertical rotisserie and sliced to order, served in fresh bread with quality accompaniments. Beyond the headline doner, the menu stretches to traditional Turkish pide (flatbread boats with various fillings), smash burgers, and pizzas. The baklava provides a proper finish.

Quality focus

Doner G is committed to using high-quality ingredients, sourcing fresh produce, meats, and spices. The cooking blends traditional Turkish methods with modern innovations — the result being food that tastes genuinely authentic rather than a generic takeaway approximation.

Practical details

Open from 3pm until late, seven days a week. Available on Deliveroo and other delivery apps, making it a practical option for an evening at home. Customer reviews consistently praise the speed of service, generous portions, and food quality.

A newer arrival

As one of the High Street's more recent additions, Doner G fills a gap for those who want something more interesting than a standard pizza delivery but equally convenient. Worth trying if you have not yet.
