A kebab shop is a quick service food establishment specialising in various fast food and street food dishes, primarily doner kebab and related sandwiches, including falafel.[1][2]
Kebab shops were born in Europe, specifically Berlin with doner kebab brought by Turkish immigrants,[citation needed] as a natural evolution of influences from Turkey into Germany in the early 1970s, where doner kebab, iskender kebab, shish kebab and the like were served with fries and beer.[3][failed verification] Kebab shops have also spread to the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia.[citation needed]
