Donair Town is a popular Middle Eastern-style eatery with multiple locations across Metro Vancouver, including Commercial Drive, Robson Street, UBC campus, Coquitlam, and New Westminster. They serve Halifax-style donair wraps, platters, poutine variations, and shawarma plates with generous portions of chicken, beef, or lamb. The casual atmosphere and quick service make it a favorite for students, professionals, and late-night diners alike.
The restaurant is well-known for its signature sweet garlic sauce and hearty meat servings, earning high praise on delivery platforms (around 4.5 on DoorDash/Uber Eats) and positive feedback from local review sites. Reddit users highlight the affordability and filling meals—especially on campuses—with one comment noting the “freshly cooked pita is a game changer” and another celebrating “tons of meat in [their] donair” at UBC.
Despite mixed opinions on authenticity—with some users pointing out the use of sticky short-grain rice instead of basmati—the general sentiment is positive for value and portion size. Many describe Donair Town as a dependable, budget-friendly choice, with campus diners recommending it as “best food on campus” for its generous portions and affordable pricing
