Shoarma babylon in Wijk 01 Centrum

Had a delicious mixed grill at Shoarma Babylon

The staff is very attentive and incredibly hospitable, and the food is delicious.

As always, great! Delicious food and very friendly staff.

I ate a really delicious sandwich and super tasty sauce, highly recommended.

Really always super delicious, great, friendly service, everyone is always cheerful

The tastiest shawarma, but the delivery has been bad the last few times. They are happy that you order on their own website, but even that doesn't help. Called them and asked where the food was, and they said it was on its way. Still waiting a very long time after the phone call. It's a shame they are losing a regular customer this way.

I was still hungry late and it was one of the few places that would be open until late. Delicious mixed grill, large portion compared to other places. Service was top-notch and everyone was very friendly!

It smells sour there. That can't be good.

Ordered on King's Day and waited all evening for the order that was supposed to arrive. Unfortunately, never received. Now we have been trying to get in touch by phone for days; naturally, we want our money back. But no one is answering. So now we are trying it this way.

Top-notch, well-filled sandwiches

After waiting for 75 minutes, we called to ask where our order was; the answer was that the delivery person was on their way. Then, 20 minutes later, we called again to ask where our order was, and once again we were told that the order was on its way. We explained that we were getting really hungry from waiting for our food; Babylon's response was that we don't know what hunger is in the Netherlands. So, after another 20 minutes, we called to ask where our food was, and this time we were told he would be at the door in 2 minutes. And sure enough, after 5 minutes the delivery person was there. Result: we waited a total of 2 hours for the food, and the food was cold. We will never order from here again !!!!! It says 1 star, but it isn't even worth half a star!!!!

Very friendly staff, delicious food! tamally maak!

The best shawarma in Purmerend. But they often forget sauces you paid for. Or they give you the wrong sauce.

Ordered and picked up food, but it was a shame the box didn't specify what was in it. We had to taste it to be sure what belonged to whom. A bit awkward, especially if someone isn't allowed to eat something.

A loyal customer for over 30 years

Always delicious food and friendly people.

The pizza was overcooked, and the sauce was still too short after ordering it 4 times!! I won't be ordering from here again.

We've been ordering from here for a while, but lately it's been really bad, especially regarding delivery and the quality of the products. There's always a shortage of sauce (which you do pay for), and last time, the pizza was overcooked, so it was inedible. I understand it can take a little longer when it's busy, but at least they deliver the right products!

Friendly staff, good atmosphere and tasty food

It's been a while since I'd gotten anything, and I just got three super chicken shawarma. €36, but the chicken was completely tasteless and dried out. Such a shame. I used to like it much better. This was my last time.

The food was delicious again, I have been there before because family lives in Purmerend but I really missed this and nothing has changed, same owner, same layout even the food is top top top

2 hair salon price 30 e 2 bites thrown in the bin inedible!

Ordered two shawarma platters. Normally it goes well, but today I ordered before 6 p.m. and after calling twice, finally received it at 8:40 p.m. The shawarma was lukewarm and the fries cold. They've lost me as a customer for the time being.

Ordered two pizzas today through Thuisbezorgd. I order often and they're always on time and correct. This time, we had to wait an hour and 10 minutes for a cooled, chewy pizza. Such a shame! It felt like they'd forgotten about us, and the pizzas too. I'd appreciate a proper solution from Babylon.

We've been coming or ordering from here for years, but the quality has deteriorated significantly. We ordered during the week this time, which we usually do on the weekends. After the last time, I had diarrhea and felt really sick. Last time we ordered.

Still the authentic delicious shoarma, served differently and still a golden oldie!

Best shawarma in Purmerend. And it's been that way for years!

On September 5th, after a night at the Ziggo Race Café, we had a fantastic meal here. We had the shawarma calzone, and it was, in a word, excellent. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, but also very professional. So, for the food, atmosphere, and price, I give it a 10. On September 12th, we were hungry again at night. So, we drove to Babylon again, this time with other friends. Unfortunately, after ordering, we received a very bad message from home and had to leave immediately. Without having eaten. The staff was very understanding, and after paying for the drinks that had already been opened, we left immediately. Thanks again for your understanding.

Good old-fashioned, well-seasoned shawarma! The sauces (tomato/onion, garlic, and sambal) were just right! I felt like I was at that super good shawarma place that used to be on Ferdinand Bolstraat. Definitely worth a visit.

I've always ordered from Babylon and have always been completely satisfied, but today my order came without any sauce (that's quite important for a shawarma sandwich). The delivery driver forgot, and after 40 minutes, he brought the sauces. It takes 7 minutes each way from my house to Babylon. I'm surprised the delivery driver took care of the other orders first and then delivered the sauces. As a result, I have to throw away the cold shawarma sandwich and part of my calzone. It will take a while before I regain my trust in Babylon.

I ordered a 15-euro "pizza" from these guys. I got a kind of tasteless cardboard round with cheese and pepperoni. I considered adding bleach to it to at least give it some flavor. It's impossible to eat.

I went to this restaurant and saw a mouse running under my feet.

We have been greeted as one of them, it's a moment that we will remember. The owner staff and everyone are so friendly and welcoming us as tourists. The food is great, have chit chat with them.

+Can I have a doner kebab? -Noooo, there's no doner kebab here, if you want, just shawarma (Although I don't care what you call it, they should definitely not speak disrespectfully or rudely behind me (Yes, I don't speak Dutch, but I immediately notice when an Arab is talking behind me!) From now on, I'll call it doner everywhere Doner doner doner doner doner doner 😜

This business has gone downhill a lot. Big boss Sjors would only be there on the weekend. One order after another came back because it was either wrong or burnt (pizza). Clearly another pizza maker. No more people I know in the business. I was also disappointed with the food and the atmosphere was unfortunately not there. Such a shame, especially when I read the other reviews. How quickly a business goes under...

Ordered 2x Kapsalon chicken with extra fries, didn't have fries!!!! Called and was spoken to in a very unintelligible manner. Fries delivered 40 minutes later. No sorry, no extra, and it wasn't even tasty. I will never order from here again.

Ordered fries with other things, fries not delivered. Babylon had no respect for the customer. 2nd time this already, shame! Didn't want to deliver the fries, but they paid for it.

Good service, food and attitude to everyone 🤝

Very bad service!!! Ordered and just didn't receive three quarters of the order😡😡. They speak unintelligibly and do not understand what you ordered! Not recommended. Babylon, shame on you!

Falafel is rock hard, you can smash the windows with it. Shawarma poor, quickly thrown into a pita, without any lettuce or anything like that. In short, not recommended and way too expensive, 3 sandwiches and fries €33.

The meat on the pizza was weird, we were both sick the next day. It smelled like sweaty armpits. >:D

Delicious chicken shawarma dish with onion sauce, we drive there 40 minutes beforehand. Just wonderful

Ordered online and requested delivery at 7:30 PM. They are already at the door at 6.15 pm. So bummed. Everything used to go well, but nowadays it's a mess there. And this wasn't the first time this has happened. And the only thing you get to hear when you call is: yes, busy, sorry. Last time I ordered there after all these years. Now looking for a good shawarma place. So bummed. Bah.

Best shawarma in the area. Friendly service and fast.

Just ordered a pizza and it arrived super quickly! Only ice cold pizza and only dough with very little cheese I called the company to report this and the person gets angry! Because I asked how is that pizza so cold? According to this gentleman, I had to go with my. Mind your own business and not his on the phone, he said he is bringing a new pizza, I have been waiting for an hour I will never order a pizza here again!!!

My buddy and I wanted a shawarma sandwich on Boxing Day. I didn't feel like eating in a shawarma place lit with fluorescent beams, so we went to Babylon. We both order a Turkish Toska Lamb as stated on the menu. The sandwiches soon arrived on the table and I immediately saw that they probably weren't in the mood for them that day. The Turkish rolls looked like limp dishcloths, there was no cheese on them and the shawarma looked more like minced meat than shawarma. The shawarma was dry, the sandwich probably came from one of those supermarket packages and there was no cheese on it. I immediately said that there was no cheese on it and then the best man simply said that I had not ordered that, but Toska really means with cheese. He was immediately irritated, but he would still put cheese over it. But we were hungry and I immediately got fed up with it when it was said that I had not ordered it. The man simply did not have the time or inclination to listen quietly to take his order properly. Ate the shawarma sandwich anyway. I would also bring a sandwich for my girlfriend, who had just stayed at home. So I order, very clearly, a small normal shawarma sandwich. A shawarma sandwich is being prepared and he says to the man at the cash register: Super shawarma sandwich. I was about to explode, but I restrained myself and paid the €11 for the unrequested super shawarma and we left. But we went there for the very last time for the rest of our lives. He fucks his wife, not me. Ball tent

15 euros for a hair salon, just act normal

I had a take away and in the sandwich there was only meat, no salt, no tomatoes, cosmic nothingness

Look how small the pita bread is compared to my hand. For 10 euros, you’re definitely not getting full. The meat is strangely spiced, and the big tapas plate on the table is shared with everyone, likely using the same spoon that someone else licked. I got sick the day after.

Ordered 2 hair salons tonight, it took a long time, the delivery person said he had been at the door. So no, we sat in the living room, finally the phone rang, no problem, the food arrived, it was warm, but the garlic sauce had not been delivered, and the cheese stuck to the aluminum foil, so it was a mess. Always ordered, but this was really bad!!!

Good tent, everything great, just the price a bit on the high side.

Great place, delicious shawarma sandwich. Super friendly staff

Such nice and hospitable people. And Sjors is such a good host. Top tent with delicious shawarma

Beste plek om na een avondje uitgaan nog een lekker broodje te eten. Altijd vers en vriendelijk personeel. Helaas tegenwoordig om 2 uur al dicht

Best place in Purmerend for shawarma, pizza and grill.

We ordered mixed grill and it was very greasy. Not recommended

I did not receive napkins with my Chicken Shawarma sandwich. I had to wait there until someone walked by to ask if I could get some napkins. And in the meantime, your shawarma sandwich is cooling down quickly.

best shawarma in purmerend came here when I was 15 years old and that was 40 years ago.

Well, that's just fine! 2 br lamb keb, fries with herbs, onion sauce! DELICIOUS🤩🤩

Super Pizza and very friendly personal

We have been coming here for years, when we go to my sister in Purmerend. Simply the best shawarma in Purmerend. Friendly staff. And the food is great whatever you order.

My best Shawarma 👌 in Amsterdam Purmerend, Thank you, Mr George and Lowe

The best thing is the friendliness of the staff. Of the food, the best are the sauces. We ate 4 people, 2 plates of falafel and 2 of shawarma. To drink 2 beers and 2 waters. Total €50.

Chefs are here, price quality great!

The pizzas are always delicious and the staff is always super sweet and polite!

A bit too much Arabic spoken between them tent sauces are better than the meat

Always a good atmosphere and delicious food. For dessert a tangerine from the staff.

The best of Purmerend and surrounding areas!!!!

Get food here regularly. When we come to pick it up, we get a tangerine while waiting. Friendly staff and owner. We come here regularly. Delivery is also fast!

The tastiest shawarma and good service!

After having to wait almost 2 1/2 hours last week, I received a call from the owner the next day. Nice conversation and received an apology for the long wait. Today I can receive a new sandwich free of charge. Thank you Babylon for this great service. Gr Tineke

I rarely order, but since ordering from Babylon I have had stomach cramps and diarrhea. Possibly food poisoning. Please check your products for shelf life. Thanks! And work! Gr

Was always the best for me in Purmerend!! but unfortunately now every time I think about trying it again, it's like I'm eating old meat, a strange taste and smell, it doesn't seem fresh. I've been trying again and again for a year or so, but I'm always disappointed. So now I don't regret it anymore. It has really deteriorated dramatically.

This tough minced meat sandwich with a kilo of tomato was 11 euros.... dissappointing

At Babylon you can always enjoy honest and delicious food. I have been coming there for at least 30 years and I always feel welcomed as a guest. You can enjoy yourself at Babylon. Highly recommended for everyone.

The best shawarma dish in North Holland

Thuis laten bezorgen is in het weekend een hopeloze zaak, wachttijden van wel meer dan 2 uur. Je kan ze dan telefonisch ook niet meer bereiken. Heb dit al een paar keer gehad. Jammer dat ze gewoon niet eerlijk zijn in de wachttijden, dan kan je zelf bepalen of je meer dan 2 uur wil wachten.

Been coming for 20 years and remains the best shaurma you can get

A very good shawarma shop, delicious food and a fast, good delivery service. Price has increased considerably. But despite that, great.

If you could eat for free, the place is closed

The shoarma tastes unique! The seasoning mixture is incredibly tasty! 💯% recommendation

The best kebab in the Netherlands! 🤤🙏🏼

Great! We ate very well and the staff was very friendly.

Nou dus ikke van Momus afkomen, kei gezellig witte wel, nog effe vreten en naar huis. Komen we daar aan, die Turk zegt dat ie alleen nog durum doner verkoopt of een broodje kebab. Ikke voor de grap zegge da ik een babylon wil, hij nie kunnen lachen en mij tent uitjagen. Ik was respectoos zijn tegenover zijn zaak en cultuur dus moest maken da ik weg kwam daar. Die maat van mij mocht blijven dus hij 2 durum doners bestellen, dus ook inne voor mij (nie zegge tege hem). Uiteindelijk toch een durum doner gekregen buiten. Dik koud en er was al een hap uit genomen, ellende... Zoveel sambal zat erin dat je daarmee de hele noord- en zuidpool mee kon opwarmen. Verder stonden er wel genoeg stoelen binnen dus 2 sterren voor de sfeer.

Called twice and had to wait almost 3 hours for my order. NEVER AGAIN WOULD NOT ORDER HERE

Really no chance, I order food at 4:45 PM and it would be delivered at 5:45 PM 3 hours later as stated, still nothing! Very bad !!! The phone is not answered so there is nothing to ask or arrange. I will never order anything from here again

My stomach really hurt after eating chicken shawarma.

Food picked up, shawarmas and kebabs, was again well prepared and very tasty as usual.

The amount of protein is excellent, but make Indian fatsak

We waited over 1.45 hours for our order. Would take an hour. Called after waiting 1 hour and he was just on his way. It was delivered 45 minutes later, even though it is a 10-minute drive at most. Food was lukewarm. Delivery man said he had no change and after I said I didn't have any smaller change, he spontaneously had change. Long wait for lukewarm food and a delivery person who wants to get an extra tip by saying he has no change.

never eaten there but it looks delicious

Food always top, fresh, hot, fast, always top service. Have always enjoyed driving from Hoorn to Purmerend for a sandwich for years

there can only be 1 best. Delicious, as always

Best shawarma place in Purnerend. Always a very welcome feeling. And a tangerine for the vitamins 🤭

Kipsalon lamb was so lekker! The variety of sauces added to the meal. Highly recommended 🙌🏽

Food was OK but not very special. The prices are sky-high: 2 shawarma pitah breads, 2 cheese pitah breads & 2 soft drinks €35.00 Three people busy working, 1 man friendly but busy calling and 1 man constantly looking at his smartphone and shouting all kinds of things through the shop with a loud voice and ill-mannered manner and then standing in front of the entrance of the building to smoke. And then the ringtone from home is heard loudly throughout the business all the time. No, next time real Lamb Shawarma at Hassan from Safrana and make your own sandwiches at home.

Delicious calzone. Always cut to your liking and delivered quickly.

I ordered a calzone of lamb when the second bite was in my mouth. I called the restaurant and was able to get a new one, which I obviously no longer want, or I was able to get a credit voucher. If I want my money back I have to arrange it myself with poor service delivered to my home, I am not used to this from Babylon. I have ordered before but this was the last time. Kind regards, Thijs

Out of every restaurant I've been to in the world, this one made me feel most at home.

the tastiest shawarma in purmerend👌👌
