Your tummy’s taken charge, and it’s telling you it’s time to eat. We hear you habibi, we’ve been there plenty of times. It’s why we serve up the best charcoal chicken in Bankstown, day after day—to feed Western Sydney’s hungriest residents. Come in-store, say hello (if you’re feeling up to it after last night), and dine-in with us. We’ll roll out the full El Jannah experience for you, complete with Lebanese hospitality.

Gabriella was an incredible help to us! We felt welcomed immediately and well looked after right throughout our experience. Some of us have been to El Jannah before and some of us haven’t and now we are sure to come back. The food was exceptional as always! The chicken skin was crispy and the chicken itself was juicy and flavoursome. The chips were salted to perfection and the vibes were pumping. I’m very satisfied with my experience here at El Jannah Bankstown and all of us are sure to return for more in the future

I’m a regular at El Jannah Bankstown, and every single time I visit, the food is cooked perfectly. The chips are always nice and crunchy with just the right amount of chicken salt. The grilled chicken burger is spot on every time, the charcoal chicken is absolutely delicious, and the garlic sauce ties everything together perfectly.
The chicken tenders are one of our favs and are consistently amazing — I even told the girls at the counter how good they are, and they told me Ibrahim made them that day. Shoutout to Ibrahim for doing an incredible job!
The service here is always great too — lots of smiling faces and really accommodating staff. Easily one of my favourite spots in Bankstown!
