100% Halal·East Village·20 – 2,000 Guests
The halal doner upgrade to your usual shawarma or gyro
If you love shawarma or gyro, our flame-grilled Turkish doner is the catering pick — carved fresh from the vertical spit and delivered anywhere in Manhattan from our kitchen at 147 Avenue A. We serve Berlin-style doner — the same family of vertical-spit, flame-grilled meat as shawarma and gyro — and every single order is 100% halal.

Good to know
Catering FAQ
Is Turkish doner like shawarma or gyro?
Same family of vertical-spit, flame-grilled meat — if you love shawarma or gyro, our hand-carved Turkish doner is the catering pick. Ours is Berlin-style: thinly carved, seasoned and served fresh, with falafel, salads, rice and mezze on hand for vegetarian guests.
Is your catering halal?
Yes — 100% halal, every item and every order. There is no separate "halal menu"; everything Baba Döner serves is halal, so the whole table can dig into the same doner, kebab platters and sides without a second thought.
What areas do you cater?
The East Village, Lower East Side, NoHo and across Manhattan from our kitchen at 147 Avenue A. Tell us your delivery address and we'll confirm it in your quote.
How much notice do you need, and how do quotes work?
Smaller trays can often be arranged same-day; larger and full-service events are best booked 24–48 hours ahead. Pricing is request-a-quote — share your headcount and we'll send a clear per-person or tray quote, usually within a few hours.
What's the minimum order, and what does it cost?
Catering scales from small groups to several hundred guests, and pricing is confirmed per-person or per-tray in your quote — no fixed published prices. Share your headcount in the form and we'll recommend the right format.
Do you offer vegetarian options?
Yes. Falafel, salads, rice and mezze keep vegetarian and lighter eaters covered alongside the carved doner and kebab platters.
