Five restaurants from Buckinghamshire have been shortlisted for the 2027 British Kebab Awards.

Five Buckinghamshire restaurants have reached the finals of the 2027 British Kebab Awards.

Two of the takeaways are owned by restaurateur Halil 'Harry' Olgar. His businesses have won several national accolades between 2022 and 2025, helping to raise the profile of Buckinghamshire's independent food sector. Historia Meze Grill opened in 2019 on Oxford Road in High Wycombe, while Holmer Green Kebabs opened in 1999.
