Loved this casual cafe in Cambridge, great prices and very tasty food! Staff were delightful, the owner giving us hummus and pitta, Turkish tea on the house. Great value!

Absolutely amazing service and food here. Got to meet the famous Carlos too who loaded me up with this dish that was spectacular. It has brocolli, pasta, rice, grilled wings and this sauce that had a slight kick to it. He offered it with a yoghurt sauce. Ask for his recommendation on the day when you visit. He'll hook you up.

Best lamb doner meat I've ever had (so far). Lively atmosphere as people come and go, eat and chat to Carlos. Decent prices for the quality, and has a more of a home kitchen vibe than a typical kebab shop. Carlos is an attentive and generous cook, but is a salesman, so make sure you are confident in your choice of meal unless you are willing to pay for something else/extra.

Original Turkish Doner The chicken doner is made from freshly chicken and not a frozen stuff. Amount of food is generous. Really enjoyed it.

Not a typical Kabab shop! Carlos is a very nice guy. He is super friendly and offers great hospitality with exceptional customer service mind! Everyone loves him. I enjoyed my mixed kabab and salad on rice with extra chilli sauce šŸŒ¶. The portion size was generous and the dishes tasted really good. šŸ‘šŸ¼ He offered a traditional Turkish tea for me (on the house) which was a nice touch!!! Thanks Carlos!!!! Update: Last weekend, I visit Carlos BBQ again for the 3rd time and tried his special menus- slow cooked lamb shank. It was super delicious!!!!

Seems like a bit of an institution here. Very good sized portions and the owner is the nicest guy youā€™ll meet. He even offers Turkish tea while you wait. I tried some baclava which I really enjoyed, even though I donā€™t really eat sweet pastries. Try their bulgar, itā€™s pretty tasty.

Great find during our stay in Cambridge! Carlos is friendly and cooks the food and brings it out! My son and I were thrilled to talk about o him! Carlos said he started his business when he was 19 over 30 years ago! He never goes on holiday but his wife is going to make him go soon for their anniversary! The kebab was delicious, falafel wrap was delicious, the baklava so tasty, and rice pudding was divine! If Iā€™m ever in Cambridge again we will stop in!

Not a fancy place but solid and tasty food. If you are a bit indecisive like me the owner will gladly help you and that with great confidence that you will like it.

We went from Bedford and were looking for halal food. All restaurants around were pricey and overrated. We are glad we found this. The owner is a humble Turkish guy who offered my daughter free sweets too. Food was amazing.

Awesome delicious falafel wrap which tasted great and was well worth the price. I asked for additional halloumi to be added to my wrap. Also enjoyed the Turkish tea and coffee. The chef/owner is kind, warm and very accommodating to all patrons visiting his establishment. Definitely worth a visit

Softest lamb shank on earth at #CarlosBarbacue on #MillRoad #Cambridge Literally melts off the bone. Tastes divine. Stunningly melt in your mouth mulaaim. Served on a bed of perfectly cooked burghuri, and a crunchy salad on the side. I asked for extra donor meat and forgot to take pictures of the out of this world perfect #hummus and the extra chilli garlic sauce and chilli sauce. Usually I would down it with a bottle of chilled Uludag ice cream soda. Had to make do w coke zero. Didn't touch the insanely delicious baklava and desserts. Such a good girl in am. But here it is. If your in Cambridge do not miss out on Carlos's Barbecue on Mill Road. Everything from the chops, the shank, to the tawuks, in lamb or chicken, the donors, burghuri, hummus... Kababs...dessert...qava afterwords...everything is perfect. Carlos is one of the most loved people on Mill Road. Genuinely passionate about his food, Turkey and Cyprus. He and all his servers have hearts of gold. Alhamdolillah his makes sure the food is perfect and his customers satisfied.. It's a Lovely crisp evening. Thanking Allah every moment for the weather, the blue skies, green trees and this surge of energy my body is feeling after so long. I didn't eat all of that. Part of #diabetes is controlling portion sizes, so I'm being extra careful. I did imagine myself crunching on a sticky, sweet, flaky, crisp baklava. Dreaming doesn't raise my sugar :) Thinking of you all. Hoping your all enjoying what you eat! Love N UPDATE Swipe to see the yumminess. Ribs, lamb chops, seekh kabab, chicken shish, lamb shish, the most juicy, soft, succulent melt in your mouth meat, on a bed of bulgur & pea pullao, fresh hummus, pittas, tarama, flakey, crisp borek pastry filled w either potatoes and peas or meat. The most fabulous chilli sauce to dip everything in. Followed by FANTASTIC revani, a soft semolina cake steeped in syrup. Some sweet Khadayif, made w stringed vermicelli, walnut and pistachio, a delicious soft crunchy bakalava of your choice. And through out the meal, Carlosā€™s magic secret recipe qava (tea), we had many cups of those! And a Turkish coffee to top it off. Another magic ingredient is Carlos himself! One of the sweetest, most friendly, generous and loving gentlemen in the world. Best Turkish Cypriot food on Earth but Carlos has something for everyone with burgers, fish and chips, wings, donor kebabs. Jokes and friendly conversation galore. I could sit here all day w my laptop, work, snack, tea and coffee myself to heaven and back! If you come to Cambridge, you have to visit Carlos BBQ on Mill Road, eat, drink and give Carlos a huge hug! Coz he is simply amazing. Nothing like being fed good food with love! Had to go to the hospital and was feeling a bit rough post all the tests, then, we decided to go to Carlos and everything was forgotten in a meat and sweet fest!

A really friendly guy who always makes you feel welcome, food is good and 9 times out of 10 you'll get a complimentary cup of tea or coffee while you wait for your food, great atmosphere and multi cultural, people from all walks of life sitting and eating together, great conversations to be had!

Today after thinking about trying Carlos BBQ for such a long time I finally did and I'm so glad I went! We ordered the chicken shish, falafel and hummus and everything was cooked perfectly and super tasty. Carlos was so nice and friendly and gave us lots of extra food so we can also say that the lamb is really good too. We'll definitely be going back soon and want to try more things on the menu. Thank you for the great food!

Carlos is an absolute legend. He is generous with everyone, and also gives away a lot of food to places like homeless shelters etc. Carlos was my go-to takeaway supplier throughout the lockdowns. There's simply no better food-value for the money you spend here. I come here often for this huge lamb shank, turkish tea and baklava.

He made my day. Two days ago I crossed by the door of this place, and I thank the moment I decided to enter. The food was delicious and he was amazing with me, offering me a tea and a flavoured water. Thanks, I really needed that šŸ˜€
