El Jannah Cranebrook Menu
Lunch just got legendary. Three fresh chicken rolls – charcoal tawouk or hand-crumbed crispy tenders – built to order in fresh Lebanese bread with our famous toum (garlic sauce) and whole food salads made fresh in the restaurant every day.
Real ingredients. Made the El Jannah way. Available every day from open until 4pm, in-restaurant and on the El Jannah app.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 tawouk 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.
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.
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.
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 toum (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.
The Best Charcoal Chicken in Cranebrook
Cranebrook, we brought the good stuff. After decades of charcoal chicken mastery, we’re finally serving up our signature recipe in your backyard, and trust us, you’ll taste the experience in every bite. From our traditional Lebanese marinade to the way we grill low and slow over real charcoal, this isn’t just dinner. It’s a flavour punch to the senses. Big call? Maybe. But once that chicken hits the table, even the picky eaters won’t argue.
What Makes our Fried Chicken in Cranebrook So Crispy
Sometimes, the answer to life’s problems is fried chicken. And when it comes to fried chicken, we’re the best at it. Sorry, but it’s true. We hand-bread every piece using a signature blend of herbs and spices, before frying the chook so it’s crunchy and crispy on the outside, and melt-in-your-mouth juicy on the inside. Every bite’s like a party in your mouth, without the next-day headache.

I want to give a special mention to Ann and Jenna from El Jannah Cranebrook for their excellent customer service. They were incredibly helpful throughout my order and made sure I understood everything before finalising it. They were patient with all my questions and requests and never made me feel rushed.
Both of them were polite, professional, friendly, and very attentive. Even though it was a busy time, they still took the time to make sure my order was handled properly. That level of customer service really makes a difference.
Ann and Jenna are a credit to the team and genuinely deserve a raise or some kind of recognition for their effort. It was such a positive experience. Thank you both!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Outstanding Customer Service from Rozer at Eljana Cranbrook!
I cannot speak highly enough of Rozer and the exceptional level of customer service they represent at Eljana Cranbrook. From professionalism and dedication to the importance of making customers feel welcomed, respected, and valued, Rozer deserves the highest possible recognition. Genuine customer service is becoming increasingly rare, which makes it especially important to acknowledge people who go above and beyond to create a positive experience.
Rozer deserves recognition for the qualities that define truly exceptional service: patience, kindness, professionalism, attention to detail, and a commitment to ensuring customers feel appreciated. These qualities are what separate an ordinary experience from one that leaves a lasting impression.
What makes outstanding customer service so valuable is the ability to make people feel that their time and needs genuinely matter. Every interaction presents an opportunity to build trust, demonstrate respect, and leave someone with a positive impression. That is the standard of service worth celebrating, and Rozer deserves sincere appreciation for representing those values.
Eljana Cranbrook is fortunate to have someone whose customer-facing role provides an opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the customer experience. Employees who understand the importance of courtesy, communication, and professionalism are invaluable to any establishment, and their contributions should never be taken for granted.
I would wholeheartedly encourage the recognition of Rozer’s customer service and the positive qualities they bring to their role. It is refreshing to see customer service acknowledged as something that requires genuine effort, dedication, and care.
Five stars without hesitation for the standard of customer service being celebrated here. Rozer deserves a massive thank-you for the importance of their work and the value that excellent customer service brings to a business. Recognition like this is well deserved, and I hope Rozer knows that providing a welcoming, respectful, and professional experience is something worth being proud of.
Thank you, Rozer, for representing the very best qualities of customer service at Eljana Cranbrook. 🌟
