Overview
Khyber Sheenwari is an Afghan restaurant at 61 Bridge Street on the south side, opened in late 2025 by Saeed Tanga Khan with business partner Gyan Singh. Glasgow Live covered Tanga’s story: he fled Afghanistan at ten, learned to cook in Peshawar’s street kitchens, lived in Glasgow for about a decade, and opened this place to share Afghan and Peshawari flavours. The menu centres on charcoal kebabs, Shinwari / charsi karahi, Kabuli pulao, chapli kebab, fresh naan, and Afghan teas (karak chai, zafroni green tea). There’s a baithak-style corner for floor seating with cushions. Lamb charsi karahi and mixed grill platters are listed around £32; chapli kebab and Kabuli pulao around £12. Open daily noon–11pm (Glasgow Live / site). Phone 0141 737 0519; Instagram @khyber_shinwariuk. Bridge Street Subway is essentially on the doorstep.

We spent £40 here yesterday, and unfortunately, the experience was far below expectations. The food quality was highly disappointing — all kebabs were undercooked, which not only affected the taste but also raised concerns about kitchen standards and food safety. Both the BBQ and nehari lacked proper preparation and flavour, which was quite disheartening.
