Is Doner Kebab Halal?

Quick answer It depends

Doner kebab is usually made from lamb, beef or chicken and many UK kebab shops use halal meat — but not all, and doner products can contain mixed meats. Look for a halal certificate in the shop and ask which supplier they use.

What to ask

Ask whether the meat is halal-certified and by whom. Mixed "doner" products have occasionally been found to contain undeclared meats, so a reputable halal supplier matters.
