Description

Chick Pea offers a decent selection of shawarma in downtown Calgary. The Beef Shawarma is a standout choice with a variety of ingredients and reasonable pricing. Customers praise the fresh food and quick service, recommending getting there before noon. The unassuming restaurant serves excellent falafel, beef donair, and chicken shawarma. Despite a garlic sauce that's more sweet than garlicky, the food is tasty and fulfilling for the price. While service might be slowed by large delivery orders, the staff are friendly and efficient. Overall, Chick Pea is a great spot for a quick, fresh meal in the downtown area.

In my opinion it's the best donair/shawarma place in Calgary. I haven't tried them all, but this one is top notch and the people are great.

I love this place and go almost every week for lunch. It's been over 10 years since I tasted the delicious food at The Chick Pea's original location on 8th Ave and it's only gotten better. Their new location is great and they create wraps and platters in a fast moving assembly line so even if there is a queue of hungry people, you won't be waiting long. The people are great too always up for a bit of banter. The rice platters are a very healthy portion of food and the salads are delicious too if you're looking for a healthier option.
