History of The Shahi Nan Kabab & Controversy of Shahi Naan Kebab in Southall

Legendary fast food Pakistani restaurant The Shahi Nan Kabab in Southall is a brand that's as important a part of the UK's Halal hospitality scene as any other.
FtLion takes a comprehensive trip down memory lane to 1969, where it all began, to find out when and who started this iconic venture, including the various sites that were opened (and eventually closed) across Southall, London, and beyond.
During the journey, we uncover controversy in the form of an alleged copycat branch, against whom legal action is now being taken, and so much more.
▶ Who are the original owners?
▶ What happened to the 'Bridge Walleh' site?
▶ Where did the original site relocate to?

My childhood memories are of us having our family cars parked below the bridge in the 80s. My dad, uncles, grandparents. May Allah grant them all jannah.

Good times ❤

I still remember the days when Jah Shaka played in Tudor rose- southall. We would walk out of Tudor rose at 5am, ears ringing from the baseline and going straight to bridge Shahi naan. Shahi naan been closed for months now, any sign of shop reopening?

[@Feedthelion]

No idea what's happening with that one.

[@How2PlayCricket]

Love the video and the history.

[@naz1462]

Was 12 years old when I first tasted the shahi nan next to the police station I'm now 61 and still love it

[@rajeshdesore1129]

They have been there from DAY ONE when i was a child my dad use to go there on the Southall bridge this was 1979 then i went to school in old Southall so use to stop there on the way home there the original i believe the young man because I remember uncle from the shop made me happy to see them BLESS went to the new shop recently was nice there good people the shop on the bridge was tiny but was always packed mouths watering because I remember the food ......

[@Feedthelion]

Memories continue!

[@taissearsofrani9270]

its been long time since i left this job i used to work in shahinan in southall with mr afzal khan on 2016 and his son mr hasan khan it was greatest days i have ever lived

[@Feedthelion]

Thanks for adding to the history of this place.

[@npcoo337ooo7]

We used to drive from Langley Berks with my work colleagues on a Friday night to the take away on the bridge .

[@sexyali]

Always wondered why there was so many with the same name. Food is always on point.

[@Hamza52199]

I’m confused now lol. Thought the one by Lidl was the original (after the one on the bridge), that’s the only one I’ve constantly been going to since about 2006.

[@Feedthelion]

Better late than never, but now you know better 😁 Btw, review face-off between the 3 restaurants to be published this Saturday 👀

[@shahabahmad7025]

I will definitely give this a watch. It is a topic that I have been interested. Would you be interested in doing a review of TKC in Southall? Just down the road from Shahi nan kebab? they are the official caterers to the Pakistan cricket team.

[@Feedthelion]

We certainly would. Be sure to contact us through our website to discuss further. Thanks

[@daddysyoutube2734]

Has the worse hygiene fines multiple times and immigration issues with staff

[@saminairfan9326]

We’re can you buy the sauce from?

[@Feedthelion]

To buy the bottle, you go to 'The Shahi Nan Kabab from 108 South Road to 88 High Street'

[@db192]

I traveled all the way from Reading for one of these kebabs after hearing that they were open again!

[@Feedthelion]

They have all been open and some have never closed. Hope you enjoyed it.

[@kash6592]

Remember my grandfather and dad doing over a 100 miles round trip to this place in the 70's and 80's. Was such a good watch, still tastes authentic, customer service isn't great, but the food makes up for it. Pity the shop name is causing so much trouble.

[@Feedthelion]

100 miles! Amazing! Next? Your kids... :)

[@Hass79]

Love the sauce

[@rissonedacrissone]

This place has now closed r.I.p the original sha hi nab

[@TheRootskiller]

Bro is the shop permanently closed? 😢

[@rahibmiah]

Which one is the original

[@Feedthelion]

The brother at the end of the video is the Original shop.

[@ArinatorGrande]

How long is his wood?

[@darkknight17]

Why, how big is your taco?

[@ryanwest2359]

I've spent money in this place by the bridge and thought it was original .

[@ouedlaou4028]

Standards have dropped significantly, kebabs are smaller than ever and staff/customer service down to nil. However prices are through the roof, not the same experience which is a real shame.

[@Feedthelion]

Thankfully this branch has the biggest kebabs of the 4 Southall branches.

[@ouedlaou4028]

@@Feedthelion I beg to differ and hopefully you were being subtly humorous.

[@Feedthelion]

@@ouedlaou4028 Have you seen the size of the one next to Lidl? Original branch has the biggest kebabs. That doesn't mean they are big, just the biggest of the 4.

[@satjotsingh7977]

Overpriced

[@ABB-bw6tc]

They don’t make kebabs like this anywhere in the country legendary place seek kebab and chicken donner

[@shahrukh6191]

Southall kebab wars

[@TS-dr2gc]

Lol fix it over a kebab man. Jesus on about a legal fight 😂😂

[@nickgaloria1933]

I've spent 45 eating starting on the bridge amazing great kebabs great prices then now to expensive and to small

[@TheTeaisDelicious]

mate calm down it’s just seekh kebab and naan. By the way you will loose. Look at the recent Oat Milk case which cost both parties over a million pound and the little guy won. I’ve been to your place a bunch of times and seriously they aren’t anything to right home about

[@lordvader1703]

is the food not good then?

[@BobbyDeniroX]

You lot must of made millions by now. Chill out now init. Why keep working for what?🤣😂👍
