A kebab shop in Abertridwr has won the ‘Best Kebab House in Wales’ category at the British Kebab Awards – for the third time.

Wales Kebab, which is located on Thomas Street, won the award at a ceremony in London on Tuesday February 28, adding to previous wins in 2019 and 2021.

Jimmy Guzel, owner of Wales Kebab, said: “We would like to say a big thank you to our community here in Abertridwr and Caerphilly, to all our customers old and new, and finally to our hard-working staff.
“We will try to keep up the good work and quality.”

Also nominated as a finalist was Abertridwr kebab shop Sam’s Grill – which is on the same street as Wales Kebab. Sam’s Grill won the coveted award in 2020.

Ibrahim Dogus, founder of the British Kebab Awards, said: “Kebab eateries are a key part of the local community and it’s great to see so many entries at the end of a year that has tested every business operating in the hospitality sector.

“Winning the Kebab Awards is a huge achievement given the competition across the country and all outlets should be rightly proud.”
