Lovely place that we just stumbled on whilst out & about, so popped in for a light lunch. Nowt fancy, poncy or posh. Genuine middle eastern food, at good prices, friendly staff & with soothing sounds of Arabia. Definitely going back for an evening visit. We just had a few small dishes & mint tea; the portion sizes were very generous. A lucky find!

Fabulous value for money as always.
We order the platter for 2 with rice and humus on the side. The rice is deeeeeelicious!!!! The chicken schwarma is my favourite and charcoal grill never disappoints!!!
Me and my friends had lunch here yesterday . It was our first visit. The food was excellent, large portions, cooked perfectly and reasonably priced. The staff were polite and friendly and even asked if we wanted our uneaten food packed to take home!. Will definitely be going back. Thank you we had a lovely experience.
Great food, I been here twice now and will probably continue to come. Some of the meat was a bit undertook therefore I give it 4 stars. Flablirs are there and mist of the meat was too, but the bits under cooked put me off and didn't finish my food. Next time I'll enquire to tell the chef to cook my meal a bit further. ;)
UPDATE: Been here several times now and food is good!
Amazing share platter for 2 people was so much we couldn't finish it all! Great service.. Lovely bit of eye candy too �
Another great meal, can't beat this place for freshly cooked tasty food, it never disappoints, thank you!
Very good food. I � them food. I will recommend everyone here
Lovely restaurant,friendly helpful staff,delicious food, modest prices. What's not to like. Definitely worth a visit
An absolute must for any foodie. Always go once a week with the Mrs. Fantastic service, lovely atmosphere and food to die for. Would eat every day if I could plus value for money. Can't go wrong
At Charcoal Grill Bedford, the chicken and lamb dishes were exquisite. The chicken was tender and flavorful, while the lamb was succulent and perfectly seasoned. The chefs' expertise shone through, creating a delightful experience. Combined with excellent service and a cozy ambiance, it's a must-visit for chicken and lamb lovers.
Ordered the Shawarma Wrap and it was absolutely delicious, service was very good and quick and the young man who served me was very decent and helpful. Will definitely visit again to try some other foods.
Good food and good customer service.
We got the chicken liver as the starter- 8/10.
We got the sharing platter as the main- 7/10.
The setting isn’t very restaurant like- it’s not suitable for a date night or a formal evening.
Overall experience was good.
Definitely the best in Bedford went out tonight with my family and the place was full. The service is excellent. Despite thr fact that the place was full we didnt wait that much.
The food... OMG 🥴 is so tasty, the meat is fresh and the rice is D E L I C I O U S 👌🏽
Sharing platter 31£ (for2/3 people). massive plate can feed at least 4 or 5 people.
Made a order for delivery food arrived on time, big portions of rice/chips and the meat was cooked perfectly bread/hummus was also delicious.. best takaway I've had in awhile will defo order from here again.
Probably one of the best middle eastern restaurants I've ever been to. Great taste, generous portions and value for money. I can't fault it.
Very nice food and service.
Best place to eat out in Bedford
I always get a mix grill which has a little something for everyone.
They also have a good vegetarian options as-well as some traditional dishes.
Great to see charcoal grill back open, they have most definitely improved the place it's no longer run down, it's fresh and vibrant and everything and more you would exspect from a Lebanese restaurant. There chicken and lamb have always been the best in bedford marinated to perfection - we got a group platter which had more food than we could physically eat. Would highly recommend weather a quick date or out with mates hit them up. Authentic and tasty!!
They’ve had a refurb done very recently; so it’s got a nice vibrant atmosphere inside.
Prices have gone up noticeably, although not extremely high, certain items are probably a bit too much for what they are. Their shawarma, and burgers are good. Grilled meats are nice too. I’ve always found portion sizes to be big too.
Food is always decent here, and it’s probably one of the best halal places to eat out in Bedford; although not much competition around in fairness.
Feedback to management; A water bottle is £2.50. And it’s one of those plastic ones, where you can get 24 for around £4. If it’s going to be £2.50, it should be a good brand/bottle, even if the margins are crazy for you atm, lol.
Always fantastic food normally get take out but had a sit down meal the other week great refurbishment on the premises and all the staff are always friendly and thanks from my family for a lovely feast
First time ordering here and I wasn't disappointed! The meat was beautifully cooked, succulent and chared, the rice was aromatic, the chips were fresh and the salad was tasty. The young lady who took the order was very polite and explained everything well
