Whether it be a exhausting day of work, a fun-filled pub night or just the 12am munchies, Hussain's has your back. Never would I have imagined finding a more personable, friendly and good-humoured staff in any restaurant, much less in a kebab van! Every time I went, I have been met with smiles, jokes and warmth, a refreshing attitude that all the staff are able to maintain even deep into the late hours of the night. And of course their food is nothing short of exceptional! Their cheesy chips with curry sauce have been my go to order since living in this city, helping me survive through many an arduous night filled with problem sheets and stress. Compared with other kebab vans their curry is richer, with strong spice flavours and a nice balanced sweetness. This pairs wonderfully with their fresh, crispy chips that provide an excellent combination of textures with their cheese. I would definitely recommend you check Hussain's out if you get the chance as your time and money could not be better spent elsewhere!
