El Jannah Woden Menu

Charcoal Chicken

If you’re a charcoal chicken lover, then you’ve landed on the right page. Through decades of cooking chicken on charcoal, we’ve perfected the process, delivering smoky, juicy, and authentic Lebanese, flame-grilled charcoal chicken that people across Australia can’t get enough of. Our on fire charcoal chicken is legendary for its taste and freshness, which is why our Charcoal Chicken Menu is so popular. Explore our range of charcoal chicken meals, and discover why so many people swear by us to solve their chicken cravings.

Fried Chicken

Feast on our range of fried chicken at El Jannah. Enjoy our crispy Tenders and Mixed Pieces, cooked to perfection for that unbeatable crunch. Visit one of our charcoal chicken restaurants or order online today.

Boxes

When you’re looking for a convenient way to get the full El Jannah experience, you can’t go past our famous meal boxes. We’ve designed a variety of El Jannah meal boxes to showcase everything we do, from our crispy fried chicken box to our tender, juicy charcoal chicken box. We pack the boxes full of flavour (we’re proud of our generous portions), so you can enjoy our legendary chicken any time, anywhere.

Burgers

We’re big believers in the power of a legendary burger, which is why we’ve spent years perfecting a pair of chicken burgers so good, you’ll want to hard launch them on your Instagram. Just make sure you mute your most annoying family members before you do; we know how much they love to ask questions. The freshness of our Crispy Chicken Burger speaks for itself, while its spicy sibling, the Grilled Chicken Burger, is renowned as one of the best chicken burgers in town. Treat yourself to one (or both), and get ready to fall in looooove.

Rolls

Need something delicious you can eat on the go? Say no more, habibi. Our range of authentic Lebanese rolls will fill you up and keep you moving. From our delicious chicken rolls, including our legendary charcoal chicken roll, our vegetarian-friendly falafel roll, and our Aussie-inspired hot chip roll, we’ll fix your cravings so you can roll on to the rest of your day.

Sesame Pockets

Try the New Sesame Pockets (Kaki) at El Jannah, a traditional Lebanese sesame bread perfect for a quick, tasty, and authentic Middle Eastern snack. Now available at all stores.

Salads

Charcoal chicken without a fresh, traditional Lebanese salad, is like going to someone’s home without a gift. It just isn’t right. Our range of Lebanese salads, like our chicken salad, fattoush salad, and tabouli salad, are just as delicious as they are fun to say. Say fabulous fattoush six times fast, we dare you.

Sides

We heard your tummy start to rumble just then … which means it’s time to get the best charcoal chicken in town. But charcoal chicken without some seriously tasty sides is only half the fun — and we’ve got the best sides for chicken. We’re no one-trick ponies. Our signature sides and Lebanese dips range features bold flavours, with options like our universally beloved garlic sauce, crispy chips that’ll make your mouth water, and our hommous dip, which is so good, you’ll never want store bought again.

El Jannah Woden

Good news, Woden – El Jannah has arrived at your local Westfield! If your stomach’s rumbling, you can swing by our chicken shop in Woden for an in-store feast, or, if you’re too comfy to leave the couch, get your favourites delivered straight to your door. Prefer to skip the queue? Order ahead on the El Jannah App for a smooth, hassle-free pick-up.

No excuses here – the chicken’s calling, the garlic sauce is flowing, and your next meal just got a whole lot more convenient.

El Jannah Woden Opening Day

El Jannah Woden is gearing up to make its mark, and we’re kicking things off in true El Jannah style – with excellent food and some cheeky little opening deals that make everything taste even sweeter. Whether you’re joining us for the first time or counting down to opening day, welcome to the family, Woden. This is just the beginning.

The Best Charcoal Chicken in Woden

You read that right. I mean, really, why would we even claim it’s the best charcoal chicken in Woden if we didn’t actually know it was the best? It all starts with the traditional Lebanese marination. We’re talking juicy, high-quality chicken that’s been soaked in a perfect blend of spices, herbs, and a secret touch passed down through generations. Next is the slow-grill over the charcoal, we never just whack something on the grill for 20 minutes and call it a day. Sorry, habibi, we can’t share the actual deets, but we’re sure you’ll manage without them.

What Makes our Fried Chicken in Woden So Crispy

Whether you’re searching for charcoal or fried chicken in Woden, El Jannah’s got the goods. Our fried chicken’s always crispy and crunchy, can you believe some places happily plate up soggy chicken? Meanwhile, we hand-bread every piece and cook it to perfection, giving it that signature flaky golden armour while still keeping it soft and tender on the inside. That’s just the EJ way. What more could you ask for?
