105-7670 Vedder Rd, Chilliwack, BC V2R 4G9, Canada
Sammy was so sweet and lovely. We ate the fresh and best donair in a WHILE. Thank you:)
We ordered beef donairs through UberEats and received either (A) lamb, or (B) Utility Grade C beef. Either way, it was gamey and inedible with an odd texture. The portions were generous, and everything else was fresh. Maybe their falafel is worth it?
Reading all these negative reviews has honestly made me so shocked. My household has been going to this location for YEARS and never once have we had a bad experience with the food or the staff. This is the ONLY location we go to and is a staple for us when we go road tripping. 5/5 across the board - 0/5 for the comments from clearly ignorant people.
Came to try Donair affair for the first time with my family, food was good no doubt but the customer service was below zero, the one Asian older lady was extremely rude with us and with some other customers, may be she didn’t want to take customer’s order this is how you work here?? Will not come here again
Delicious food, had the lettuce bowl. So much toppings, it was fantastic. The ladies working are awesome. Will definitely return.
The food is good but the service is non existent, one worker working alone with 7-8 people waiting to order. One person is cooking meat, taking orders and preparing them all alone. Not fair to the worker
I ordered a beef rice platter for delivery, this by far has been the worst experience ive had with the donair affair franchise. I was only given half a pita bread when usually you get a full one, at the other locations. The pita was also really dry and for some reason these guys water down their hummus to a soup, would not recommend this donair affair, better off going to a different place or making the trip to another location
Good food but rice was oily, taste and quantity was good.
Worst place to eat in Chilliwack !! Crapy customer service and hygiene.j I wish there was another Middle Eastern food place in town. Food : 1/5
Easily one of the better Ran Ive visited. The staff were polite and friendly. Id definitely eat here again. Food
Vegetarian options: Yes Kid-friendliness: Yes Wheelchair accessibility: Yes
Grumpy and rude people. The doner wrap was not tasty and it fell apart. Would not recommend and wont go back.
The best Donair in Bc so fresh and the hot sauce is awesome
Alright donair, falafel isn t fresh but decent value.
Extremely good food and very friendly staff!
Im speechless... if you like applying soap via in dixie cup, this is the spot for you. I see why they call it donair AFFAIR, because I feel cheated!!! Still questioning what I just witnessed, see for yourself(: I wouldnt even feed this to my dog
One of The staff was ignorant!!!,I was waiting for long time and received the wrong order and I Paid for 3 but I only Ordered 2!!! If NO RESPECT FOR YOUR CUSTOMER YOU WILL LOSE IT !
Staff arent friendly. You tell by how they greet you and look at you.
Service is horrible..Crew need to learn how to take order politely..
Honestly pretty gross - tasteless like subway is tasteless. Boiled beef ugh , watery hummus from a tub; this place is for you if flavour is not a priority.
excellent grub
Great experience, amazing service, perfect food. I make the trip here all the time just to get the food it is amazing. Would highly recommend to anyone!
Never no where else the best for years thankyou
Great people! Very kind and inclusive! Terrific food at a fair price and I absolutely love their Hummus!
Decent place to eat!
What they offer in tasty food is absolutely destroyed by garbage attitudes coming from all the staff who work there. Miserable people top to bottom. It wasnt a delightful experience.
Very good food Highly recommended Food
I don t know why Indians own sushi and Arab food restaurants. Stick to what you re good at
This place is not middle eastern in any way shape or form, food is nasty. If I m gonna eat Arabi food it s not going to be at donair affair that s for sure
Wow was that lady if you can call someone that rude a lady, an ignorant rude piece of work! Making faces at my kid cuz he wanted plain and being so rude because she couldnt hear him! Wow then tries to rip us off for $5 On our change! super disgusted with this place!!! Wow awful service!
I have only ever had the falafel wraps here so I can t comment on the meat offerings, however this is my favourite place in Chilliwack. They don t skimp out on portions, price is reasonable. Vegetarian options: Falafel wraps
Everyone at the store was really nice and the donair bowl with lamb was good
One of the best.
How do you mess up hummus?
Love Donairs. Food is always good.
I just gone to have veggies falafel donair, i got it and very thick tomatoes totally bind no taste, no flavor sauce. I feel like thry dont no how to make it. Its happen second time thats why i mentioned now.
The staff were quite rude with no customer service qualities
The owners TAKE any tips you give at the till on your card and doesnt share/give to employees. You are tipping for service to the employees not the owner for simply having a business. Big red flag of how greedy they are. Makes you wonder how the employees are treated. As a previous service industry worker. Basically theft in my opinion. Tip in cash only if your going to. Owners please change this if you bother to read this.
I absolutely loved my first experience at donair affair. The food and staff were amazing. I will definitely be coming back!!!
Very clean, respectful staff and great food
Im always left constantly amazed by the quality and taste of donair affair. Out of the many donair places I ve tried, donair affair consistently trumps all!!
Doniar Affair delivers a delightful dining experience with its exquisite food and inviting atmosphere. They have great food I loved the rice platter and they have impeccable service, every visit is a culinary delight. Must try for your next meal.
Best donair wraps and platters always
Good and healthy food always fresh and tasty love to have chicken with rice twice a week
Worst donair Ive ever had.
First time visiting, the food is okay but not the best. Poor customer service. Food
Terrible experience. Horrible restroom, The employees are inconsiderate to patrons. Never going back. Food
Food is out of this world and same goes with the service I feel like I made a couple new friends. Definitely reminds me of home.
Dont waste your money at this donair fast food place. The staff was ignorant. The chicken was rubber,cucumbers were gross. For a $17 dollar salad plate. Was a very small portion. Definitely needs better management. Food : 1/5
The donairs are amazing! Great quality food. They know how to make it!
Best donair Affair in chilliwack, the service and customer care is very good and Food is good.
The lamb in my wrap was tasteless, couldnt recognize the taste of the meat, not even a hint of specific lamb taste and smell, the veggies were fresh but the meat quality is one star. Wasted money. Wont go again.
Good food at a fair price.
place is overall pretty good but portions are very small. bite sized and overpriced.
Placed an order and they gave me the wrong one food was pretty good and I got a free donair out of the deal and only paid for one but the guy that paid for two is probably not very happy as he only got one lamb donair sorry good order though and chicken donair is actually way better then I thought
I wish to bring to your attention an incident that occurred during my visit today, March 18, 2024, at 11:30, to pick up my order. Regrettably, I encountered a lack of professionalism and courtesy from a staff member on duty. Upon arrival, I was met with dismissive behavior as the individual stated they were busy and discouraged further interaction. Despite my attempt to engage cordially, the situation escalated, and I was subjected to unwarranted rudeness and argumentative responses. This demeanor was observed not only by myself but also by fellow customers present, indicating a noticeable departure from the expected standard of customer service. Furthermore, during the wait for my order, I found the staff members persistent negative demeanor directed towards me to be unsettling and inappropriate. I trust that this matter will be addressed promptly to ensure a more hospitable and respectful environment for all customers.
Fresh veggies onions and mushrooms grilled to profection Very full Food
Only complaint is it s not closer to home frequently travel south for work from the interior . Vedder Donair affair has become a favourite stop . If they are open it s not often I drive by .
great
Rice with Chicken is by far the best Ive ever had. I get it 2 to 3 times a week, and I cant get enough of the chicken. If I dont get the rice with chicken, I get a lamb Donair loaded. anyone that does not like this place is probably a Chop leaf lover, and cant be trusted.
Been getting Donair Affair for over 7 years at this location. The rice platter is delicious! Their chicken is very flavourful and the portion sizes are great. A lot of the same wonderful staff is still there and it s been a pleasure getting to know them over the years.
Delicious food, always really friendly. One of my favourite lunch spots. -Tim Food
Portions are now way smaller. Staff are not friendly at all. Go elsewhere.
Decent donair
Brought back the original taste to me of Donna Kebab from my local chippy! She does not skimp on the meat either.. a great portion.
Ordered the chicken shawarma wrap and chicken shawarma rice dish. The wrap was on the extra salty side but the rice dish was seasoned perfectly. I found this odd since the meat probably came from the same rack. In any case, I was in town for another business trip and decided to stop in for some shawarma. This place didn t disappoint. The girl who helped me was nice and even though a line up started to form behind me, she remained calm and did an excellent job building my meal. The wrap was also a bit difficult to eat (spilled some on myself) but that is more of a user error. Wraps are notoriously difficult to eat so choose the rice dish if you are in nice clothing. The place was brightly lit (too bright?) and was really clean. All the tables and benches looked clean. I would come back for shawarma if I had a craving. Vegetarian options: Not many Parking: Tons of parking spots as it shares the mall complex. Kid-friendliness: I think kids would love it here Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair parking spot right out front.
Out of over about 30 donair/shawarma shops tried, first one to charge for hummus, note hummus was liquid.
Went in to order... I was the only customer and was completely ignored... Glad I left... Reading some of the reviews... I dont think I wouldve been happy...
Rice platter with meat was tasty. Edited: Recently got the Mayan protein bowl and got extra chicken. The chicken was dry and hard. Like it was old chicken. I could tell it was dry just by looking at it. It was gross. The portion was also the same not extra, although that s probably a good thing. Don t recommend. Likely won t return.
The food tastes good, not a very comfortable place to eat however. Took a while to get served though.
Edit: jan 21. Wow, ive never met more rude staff in my life. I was in the middle of a sentence and she cut me off and said YEP BYE!! And then shoed me out like a rodent. Well, the food I ordered I threw away. Maybe I caught them on a bad day, but it was tasteless and soggy like a wet napkin. The veggies were limp, no crisp, the beans and meat amd everything else that went into it just made it a disgusting mess. No I didnt make my own like subway, I ordered off the menu and took what I got, I will not be returning but maybe people like that type of food, or maybe, like I said, I caught them on a bad day with maybe the almost expired ingredients. Its up to you, its in business for a reason so Im sure many love it. Parking: Lots of free parking.
Been going to various Donair Affairs forever. Main complaint is portion size. Its ridiculously inconsistent and is dependent on whos making your food. It makes zero difference of you pay for extra meat or not. Its never worth it. Ever. Never pay for extra meat or a larger size. You just pay more for the same inconsistency. The Mayan bowl is the biggest rip off. $4 for extra meat, so you pay $18 you still wind up with a kids sized meal. Just got a regular rice platter $11.99 and a Mayan bowl with extra meat. $13.99+3.99 and the rice platter had more meat. Depending on whos serving you theyll also add random extra charges at the till. Keep hitting that extra $1 button and pretend we dont notice. The food is decent though.
Great donair for my first time there. Great spices ...omy ... you must try it if your into spicy food. :)
Fast service, amazing fresh food and great value. This is a healthy and delicious option. Make your stop and decide for yourself. I don t eat out often but come here when I do.
I am not sure if the tips go the employees
The older woman behind the counter, honestly is so smug I was forced to leave a review. Thats not how you treat customers.
Staff seemed gloomy, order was made incorrect after clarifying more than once, menus duct taped in place blocking what was in some of stuff, food was okayish, probably wouldn t return
Great food friendly staff food is great place friendly to eat lunch at
Great food
Whenever Im in the area, gotta stop here for donairs!
People that work there really dont wanna be there and looks like like they hate the job they do but we are here to talk about the good so, its good taking in consideration that around Cottonwood Mall you wont find any good size proper food for only 13 dollars.
Very rude and unprofessional staff.
Best donair in Canada. Just perfect! Food
I work next door and Yay me The food itself is good but honestly its the service that Im extra impressed with. One of the people in particular has been amazing. There is a middle aged woman who works behind the counter and everytime I go in (generally twice a week, because the food is good too) she has been a delight. Attentive and makes me smile. If she wasnt there, Id probably find more reasons to make my lunch at home.
I absolutely love this place! I am pretty new to town and some of my family is from the Middle East. All of the food here is amazing and the staff are very nice :)
What a surprise! I was recommended to eat here by a gen z son of a friend of mine. He said the food was great. So I tried it. The staff were friendly and the food was great! I can see why a growing gen z would love the place. The portions were huge. Ill be back for sure. Only critism ... The space is devoid of atmosphere. It doesnt take much to make the chairs more comfortable, upgrade the flooring and replace the tables. Just saying.
It didnt really feel like a Donair shop inside, flavours kind of bland, and not much taste to the meats and sauces. It was wrapped loosely so some of it fell out the bottom. The super Donair I ordered was just a regular sized donair, if comparing it to other shops, it was alright. Definitely not the best Ive had, also they charge you for sweet sauce, which is new to me from any donair shop Ive ever been to. They also charged me for feta and didnt put any on. The lady I delt with was nice, but all in all I probably will try a different spot next time Im searching for a donair.
The food was delicious. This is a go to place for Greek style fast food. Service was great. The only thing that stops me from giving 5 stars was the condition of the seating area. Tables were dirty with waste and furniture was broken and in poor condition. Restroom is locked, so you have to interrupt the food preparers for access. Perhaps due to the location. Parking was abundant and easy to access.
Fantastic food
Definitely notice a service and quality difference between the locations but this one is good. Super chicken is a generous portion.
Good donair overall. Mix of lamp and beef is my favorite. Definitely recommend Food
The changes to the portions, rice and spices on the chickens are very disappointing! This was my go to donair shop at least once a week for many years. I may have to rethink this in the future.
Definitely did not grab enough napkins for all the meat and sauce they crammed in that little pita but it sure was delicious. And you can tell a lot of a place by its bathroom cleanliness. Five stars: would pee and eat there again.
Tasty donairs, weve had, the beef, chicken and lamb with no complaints at all.
Amazing staff who are kind and generous, making real food and serving it promptly and perfectly. 0 complaints over tons of visits, give this location a try.
First time at this location and I found the staff to be very friendly , kind and Informative and I would recommend this eatery , two thumbs up
I swear do you dog food probably taste better than this this is trash the food is the most disgusting food I ve ever eaten ever
the best donairs in Canada
The staff here seriously needs some work. Dont plan on getting served quickly or kindly. 3 women on staff, 2 customers (including myself) and I waited 15+ minutes to be served or even greeted. I could see the 2 other ladies doing food prep and mixing the meat up front, both saw me when I walked in. Neither of them bothered to greet me or take my order. No customer service whatsoever, not even a smile. It sucks because the donairs are 10/10 but the staff is a 1/10.
Best Donair ever! alway, every time. And the ladies are lovely, very kind. Food
Chicken donair was delicious! Tasty sauces and great choice of veggies. Service was quick, we got take out. They could be more friendly and welcoming but I d definitely go back!
Great food still! Came back again and same great food and the decor was recently updated. Fresh new look!
Tasty donairs I always enjoy the Hawaiian chicken
I drive from Hope just to eat at DonIr affair. I get a lamb chicken mix spicy and it is consistently amazing. The lady s that work there are top notch and work really hard. Definitely highly recommend
Customer service could have been better. Food was not prepared well. Overall a below average experience. Food : 3/5
The chicken donairs at this establishment are some of the best in town. What sets them apart is the plentiful and flavorful sauce, most of which are made in-store, giving them a unique and satisfying taste. As for the rice platters, they are perfectly prepared with the right balance of fluffiness and spice. The oil is used judiciously, making the dish delightful and not overly greasy. This place has mastered the art of cooking both chicken donairs and rice platters, and I highly recommend giving them a try.
I loved donair affair in surrey. I moved here and was extremely disappointed in how much worse the food was. The Greek salad looked like it was half eaten, had 3 pieces of onion in the whole thing and was way too acidic (too much lemon maybe?) The rice bowl was better but was still much worse than what I was used to from the surrey location.
Awesome and ladies are very nice. Parking: They are on a corner st a strop mall so plenty of free parking Food : 5/5 |
It was okay, service was a bit disappointing and I ve tried better! But it s ok for when you re hungry, would go back! I got a chicken shawarma and it was good, I wish the sauce was spicier :) but it was really good! Thank you.
Never disappointed and the staff are efficient
Great food
Perfect service. Lots of good food Food
Had a good laugh with the servers and the food was very good and filling!
Super Rich!!!
The food was great! The service was terrible at best. If the donair wasn t so good, I wouldn t go back.
I left a bad review on here before because I had food poisoning coincidentally after eating the donair. Upon researching I found out it takes 12-48 hours for a stomach virus to kick in, and I m sorry for blaming the restaurant. the food is great and exactly what you d want out of a donair, and the price is reasonable.
There is one girl that works here and she just kills the quality of the place by serving seriously chincy meals. No good.
Poor Service..
I never had disgusting food like one I got from this restaurant. Never going to order from here again.
Really fast in and out. The food is really good.
The donairs were really tasty and filling. Good meal and reasonable priced. Parking: 20 ish Food : 5/5 |
Good doniars. N plates
Found this place by accident but one of the best donairs I have ever had with friendly service.
I found splintered sharp bones in the chicken donair that I bought for my kid. The food also tastes bland and bad. I dont normally leave reviews, but finding sharp bones in a donair is not safe!! Buyer Beware. Food : 1/5
If I could give this place 0 stars, I would. First day of snow in Chilliwack and we decide to try this place. When we arrive, the lady working the front is clearly extremely grumpy and not a friendly person. No welcoming smile, no politeness. When she started making our food, we noticed a leak coming down from the ceiling. The leak was coming down in multiple places, including the counter on which they make the food. I said I think you guys have a leak and pointed to the ceiling, the leaks were very obvious, water was dripping down considerably. She responded with yeah, we know. It s not in the food area so it s okay, nothing we can do about it I responded with I actually just saw two drops hit right where you re holding my food and splash all on the counter . She gave me a dirty look, and I decided that it was time to leave. The workers have no customer service skills but most importantly, no concern for people s safety. Even without taking Foodsafe, it s pretty obvious that you shouldn t be open serving food when your ceiling is leaking water in the food prep area.
Delicious food
The chicken donair was great.
Saw.tha Asian lady cut uncooked meat off the roaster and I said thats not done. She ignored me we had chicken and we all got food poisoning. Its all profit not doing right by your community. Never go here
We had amazing service, amazing food, and totally recommend this place! Great selection, great price! A Family favourite here in my home.
The best Donair in town.
Good food, fast, clean and friendly
Just ordered this through Skip, beef donair with tzatziki was amazing, and it was a really good value! Also had the Hawaiian chicken and it was really good. I added garlic sauce to it though which made it too saucy so maybe skip that part :p All in all I m happy and full:)
Awesome every time.
If you want to find the perfect way to destroy a delicious donair this is your place. You basically pay for a ton of lettuce and Cucumber hidden by a tiny covering of dry meat. Ive tried this twice when passing through town and am glad theres much better places in my future.
Good food! very busy place, friendly staff.
Best donairs in Chilliwack. Good portion and good prices. Friendly service.
Outstanding staff Outstanding food!
Ok service... The older lady is a bit crankier the food alright they kinda cheap out if you double wrapped donair and get like a super beef/chicken
If you like Donair, you must to come to this place, awesome people and awesome food!! Mushroom chicken its my favorite!!!
Food quality is really good. Staff is also ver support and polite i like chicken briyani and wraps I recommend all of you to visit this site
I come here all the time for my lunch break. Food is always fantastic and made with care, prices are good, always fast service, the 3 ladies that regularly work in the morning/ afternoon are always super friendly. Would definitely recommend!
Never had a bad donair!!
This place is not your average fancy restaurant, its not a 5 star or fancy delicacy but if youre looking for a place that taste good, eat something else than mecanic food, fill your belly without emptying your wallet, you have the best place around. As a trucker, i often spend 1 or 2 days in Chilliwack BC and each times i pull that door and know im gonna eat like a king. This restaurant been open the whole C19 and ive always had the warm welcome. 5 1/2 stars, 15 out of 10, best place to eat around. 1000% recomend.
I can understand the low rating. Nickel and diming every possible add on and l can understand that, when you have no real competition in the area. Lots of staff too much... Just a suggestion .... reduce the staffing levels and increase the portions and l guarantee a ratings boost l dont plan on going back. There are some really good choices and well worth driving too.
Well prepared Excellent flavour
Freaking amazing food, dont be fooled by the haters.
Great place . Affordable and tasty food . Friendly staff . Highly recommend
Good
Ceiling tiles are so black with dust. I was definitely not eating in there again. Sorry but it is the truth..
For a guy that doesnt like sauce to call it dry should say something.... was not impressed by the food . The staff however were on point and very pleasant.
Big serving. Good staff. Thats whats needed. Thats what you get.
They do deals on items when the meat is expired. Stay away this donair place. They offered free pop drink with chicken donair today. I bought it. And when I start eating - chicken was very very hard to chew. The meat was very dry, old and not tasty at all. I can recognize - this was the old over cooked meat. Will never come to this place again.
Drive safe play safe be safe
Good food Bad customer service
Always a good place to grab a bite when i forget to bring lunch. Friendly staff. Dina and the girls are very kind to my husband and I. Donair is my fav. to go food so no complaints. Thank you guya
My god this franchise is sooooo needed on the island. Best meals ever.
Amazing. Good customer service
Amazing food. Good customer service. Really love this place.
Great meals and awesome friendly staff. Worth coming for, appreciate the late hours as well
The donairs are good but the service is quite poor!
Yummy lamb donairs with a cool drink on a hot day
I dont like to leave bad reviews but this one place really urges me to leave a review. I never see anybody smiling while serving our food here, they always seems grumpy, in hurry even when there is no other customer than me in the restaurant. There can be bad days for everyone but this is a culture here. Either the employer has burdened them way too much or there is something else wrong .Not mentioning anybodys name because all of them over here like that.
Great food and great price Parking: Lots of parking Wheelchair accessibility: Better then most places
The best Donair Affair restaurant I have ever been in! Great food and I highly recommend this place. Excellent and friendly staff
Fantastic food mmmm
The staff seemed a bit sad of working there sadly, The food didnt feel as fresh or flavorful as I was expecting. Not sure if thats a trend with Donaire Affair chain. Id probably not come back. The only bright side is the price very competitive but still not enough to make up the other cons
The wrost restaurant experience in chilliwack. I ordered the poutine which had hardly any cheese and the fries was old and soggy. The shawarma wrap hardly had chicken and had old salad. I would never eat at this restaurant even if it was free
Affordable and Good Taste. also staff is friendly
Poor service.
Great food and service!
Ok food , better neighborhood
My go to place in Chilliwack
Favourite chain of donairs. Recommend the rice platters.
i always love donair and the ladies are very friendly.
Extra meat super best place at Chilliwack
Was tasty, but I was going for an authentic donair, this is really more of a generic shwarma place.
Best donairs in chilliwack hands down. I always forget to take a picture because the damn thing is in my mouth as soon as I get it. The super chicken is the bomb! Sunday they have a solid deal. $7 gets you a chicken or beef donair and a pop. Nummy nummy in my tummy
Best Donair place in the Lowermain land
Love this place! Consistently tastes great and they make it just how you want it. Decently priced.
Signage is old. Store looks run down. Food was good and price was decent.
It was great
Serves a good donair, have consequently never tried a platter
Today night around 9 o clock stoped at chilliwack location. Employee was preparing my order. I suggest her to mention onions as extra charge on menu as well. Employee reffered me to her manager name Jasleen.Manager was very unprofessional , super rude and not customer oriented. She was moping the floor and start aruging for no reason. I ask her to provide her manager or owners number or email to complaint but she refused with attitude and said she is not scared of complaints.Her co employee applogize and complete my order. Never returning to this location and suggested to re train staff.
Love ordering from here
