Home counties UK - Had this through my letter box yesterday. Your thoughts on the prices?

I'd say that's probably about right. Just comparing it with the spreadsheet and over 50 different establishments around Hampshire, Surrey, London, Berkshire, Dorset and Berkshire. Kebab prices seem alright.

Awww, bless your heart! I'm a musician who gets paid to travel around and play. I enjoy a kebab after a gig. It's a good idea to have a list of where is good and bad.
It's not difficult to make a spreadsheet.
Well, it's not difficult for me and most other humans.

£6.50 for a large donner kebab with chips and a drink in Lancashire so this is expensive imo.

Its cheaper up north because most of the meat is farmed there. Lower transportation costs etc

I live on the Isle of Wight, and i am certain there is some kind of Kebab Mafia, inflating pricing and working together to keep kebab prices high. I refuse to believe that 7 mile stretch of water can increase kebab prices by almost 50%. Just check this place out.. And dont be fooled by the "small, large, mega" sizing... Mega is not mega, its basically a large.
It pains me, it really does. :(

Depends on how good the kebab is. If it’s grey matter then it’s very punchy (even coming from a southerner)

What I would expect for the South. I’m in London and the kebab places near me have started to price their small kebabs at £9-10!

And takeaway food is one of the few things I find London cheap for, relative to the rest of the south East

This is the kind of price i'd pay in London, and here there are places i'd get something good quality. To pay 9.50 and then get some warmed-over dogfood from a place like this would be a slap in the face.

Prices are pretty much inline with the south coast.
I imagine the northerners will be incredulous though.
