This is hands-down the best shawarma place in London. I’ve had the shawarma wrap and the falafel one, and both are light and fresh with the perfect amount of filling. The box portions are large and delicious too! All of this top-quality food is at a really good price (which is important for a student like me), and the service is very quick.
Special mention goes to Tarik, whose charismatic personality just elevates the whole Hibox experience and creates a unique atmosphere.
I can assure you, once you come here, you’ll be back time and time again!

Dear Katya I,
So happy to hear you enjoyed the food and we are available to the student market. We love when students who have graduated come back after 5 or 10 years and say - we used to come here and the falafels are the same!
Best wishes

Absolutely brilliant restaurant. Shame I can’t give more than 5 stars. My husband and I don’t live in London but came up to attend a show at BBC nearby and I looked up vegan food, as we are vegan for our health and the planet. I saw the great reviews- and they are well deserved.
I emailed to explain that we would have a limited time, as had to validate our tickets at 5.45pm and then be back to be in audience by 7.15pm. Not a problem. We arrived and were given a wonderful vegan assortment of food for very little for London prices- under £10 each and it was a big plate of food, very fast. Service was delightful and exceptional. Our meal included delicious falafel, salad, rice and hummus. Lots of everything and so good. It was too much for me to eat. Service was wonderful. We ate downstairs in the basement of the café, and they are preparing for winter. We then finished with delicious baklava- also vegan and so tasty.
I am of Jewish ancestry, and I am appalled at what Israeli government are doing to Palestine, so I was glad that I could support this business, while also having such a great meal.
I can’t recommend enough and next time we are in London, we will be back. Thank you.

Dear 267pejjyj,
We would like to thank you for your beautiful review which touched us deeply. You are so very welcome any time.
We only cook and serve what we would eat ourselves and we hope that this is what works as it is the golden standard! It is also important that people can afford to go out and eat so we do not look at profit margins in ÂŁÂŁÂŁ but people.
See you soon!
Best wishes

Hibox is my go-to place whenever I crave delicious, healthy, and quick food. I often eat their shawarma and falafel, and both are consistently excellent. The flavors are fresh, portions are generous, and everything is well-prepared. It’s rare to find this level of quality at such reasonable prices—definitely great value for money. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for tasty Mediterranean food on the go!

Came here after a show for food to take home, was expecting little restaurant that did a bit of takeout, nearly walked past it, it is just a little kebab shop. Looking up at menu, saw wrap, kebabs, shawarma, was unsure so we picked 4 x chefs box(ÂŁ60!!) 2 of each flavour but had to have all the same as 1 sold out. Had to wait a while, no issue there, got food, 4 complementary ice teas given to us.
Went home with food, really disappointed, for a start no bread!! Each tray was half hummus and something like hummus, a quarter salad and a bit of chicken. No bread!! How are suppose to eat the gallon of hummus? The food tasted ok, nothing special, how this place is rated so high on TA is beyond me. We were really looking forward to it but felt very let down.

This place in the heart of the city makes amazing shawarma. The smell of grilled meats and spices welcomes you as you walk in. Their chicken shawarma, wrapped in warm pita, is juicy and perfectly seasoned. Each bite has fresh veggies and tasty garlic sauce, creating a perfect mix of flavors and textures. The chef clearly knows what they’re doing. If you love shawarma, you need to try this spot.

I had eaten chicken shawarma here. I can say that the chicken shawarma is tasty.
The pricing is pretty affordable that you can get a meal deal for 8.5 GBP that includes shawarma wrap, chips and a drink.
The staff there is friendly but I would share my constructive criticism for their noisy music habit. They play it very loudly and they sign also that it feels very noisy. Also, their jokes and friendly attitude might be feeling a bit too much despite their intention is good.
I think they want to show that they like what they do and I admire it but I would recommend a normal-volume music with steady play instead of turning down and up.
Also, putting some social distance between them and customers protect them from any misunderstandings.
All in all, food is great and staff attitude might be improved.

One of the best felafel wraps in London - quality and flavour of felafel is really authentic and delicious; the shwarma is also delicious - especially good is the bread and pickles inside the wrap. Also very reasonably priced for the quality. I’m here at least one a week

If you want delicious food served by a welcoming chef, this is the spot. For only £5, you’ll receive tasty homemade falafel and arrangement of salads. The chef will completely spoil you, with catchy music and great atmosphere too, you HAVE to visit. Will definitely be coming back very soon.

I had the best Falafel experience at Hibox, has a very Middle Eastern vibe to it, with nice music and very nice Cook who put extra Hummus and gave me a free Ice tea on the house.
The Falafel wrap was very fresh and tastes great. I would definitely recommend trying this place

...IN THE WORLD! I'm in my eighties and have travelled the world extensively, but these light, crisp balls are heavenly. The sesame seeds add a pop of delight.
Their salads are glisteningly fresh and full of flavour.If you have to go to
University College London Hospital for any reason, its not far to walk, and you will come out with a smile on your face. ( We went to the British Museum.)

Hibox is a gem of a restaurant that serves fresh, delicious and vegan food. The falafel is crispy and flavorful, the salads are colorful and nutritious, and the baklava is heavenly. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere is cozy and lively. Hibox is a great place to enjoy Lebanese and Palestinian cuisine.

I work just down the road and Hibox is my favourite place to come for lunch. Affordable and delicious food, and as a vegan it’s amazing to have vegan options that are so tasty and full of flavour. The staff are also lovely - highly recommend if you’re in the area!
