Yes, you can get Kebys delivered in Great Barr — through the delivery apps. Kebys itself is a collection-first takeaway: website orders at kebys.co.uk are ordered and paid online, then collected from our Bowstoke Road kitchen. For delivery across B43, B42 and the surrounding postcodes, look for Kebys on Uber Eats, Just Eat and Deliveroo. This guide covers how each route works, which one saves you the most, and what travels best from our oven to your table.
We are the new local on Bowstoke Road, just off the Scott Arms island. If you have not met us yet, start with our introduction to Kebys in Great Barr, then come back here to sort out tonight's order.
How do you get Kebys food in Great Barr?
We made one decision early on. Every order is cooked fresh from the kitchen, never stage-cooked and reheated. Your pizza goes into the oven only when the order is confirmed, your doner is sliced when the ticket prints, and the burger hits the griddle in time to land with everything else.
There are two ways to get that food in front of you:
- Order online for collection — the best price. Order and pay at kebys.co.uk (card, Apple Pay or Google Pay) and your food is typically ready in about 20 minutes. You skip the aggregator commission entirely, so you pay our real menu prices with nothing stacked on top, and there is free parking right outside the shop. We don't take phone or cash orders — everything is ordered and paid online.
- Order on a delivery app. Look for Kebys on Uber Eats, Just Eat or Deliveroo. Put in your postcode to check you are in range, and the app shows its own live ETA, delivery fee and minimum order before you commit.
Freshness also depends on a clean, well-run kitchen. The Food Standards Agency sets the food safety rules that every takeaway must follow, and you can look up any registered takeaway through its food hygiene ratings service.
Which areas can get Kebys delivered?
Delivery range is set by the apps rather than by us, and their radius from our Great Barr kitchen comfortably reaches the neighbourhoods around B43 and B42. As a rule of thumb:
- Great Barr is the home patch — closest to the kitchen, quickest runs.
- Pheasey, Hamstead, Perry Barr and Kingstanding are all a short hop for a rider.
- The Scott Arms area is right on our doorstep — worth a read of our guide to pizza and kebab near Scott Arms if that is your corner of B43.
- Streetly, Sutton Coldfield, Erdington and Handsworth sit further out — check your postcode in the app to confirm coverage.
If your address is right on the edge of an app's zone, try the other apps before giving up — their ranges differ. And Great Barr is a large, spread-out suburb, so when in doubt, let the app confirm your range for you. Collection is always available either way.
What should you order for delivery?
Some food simply travels better than the rest. If you like to read around the dishes we cook, BBC Good Food is a reliable reference for classic pizza and kebab recipes.
- Rice boxes hold heat the best. The Lamb Doner and Rice Box is the most reliable hot-on-arrival order on the menu. Our lamb is slow-roasted on the spit and sits happily on a bed of rice without drying out.
- Larger pizzas keep their warmth. Our hand-stretched pizzas are boxed straight out of the oven and handle a rider's trip well, especially the 16-inch sizes, which hold heat in the middle.
- Burgers are best on a short hop. Grilled to order and wrapped in paper, a burger is at its best within about 25 minutes of the kitchen — or collected, when it comes off the griddle as you pull up.
- Fries are the trickiest thing to deliver. They are happiest as part of a bundle like the Munchbox, which balances out the ride — or collected, when they go straight from fryer to car.
Feeding a group? The Full House (two 16-inch pizzas, four burgers, two large fries, four desserts and a 1.5 litre bottle) is built to keep everything hot and is our go-to for a houseful. If you want a steer on portions and balance for a family order, the NHS guidance on a balanced diet is a sensible reference point.
You can see everything, with current prices, on our full Kebys menu.
When can you order?
Kebys is open Tuesday to Saturday 4pm to 10pm and Sunday 3pm to 8pm, closed Monday. Friday and Saturday evenings are the busiest window across every channel, so order a little earlier if you are hungry. The doner kebab itself has a long and interesting story if you fancy the background while you wait — the history of the doner kebab is a good read.
