Master Class Qabab is one of my favourite places when I want something quick, filling, and genuinely good in Yerevan. It’s a local fast food spot known for meat-focused dishes like shawarma, kebab, and lahmajun. Besides the traditional meats, they also use Angus beef for their kebabs and lahmajun, which gives everything a richer, deeper flavor than you'd expect from fast food.
Master Class has become really popular among locals, and it’s easy to see why. The quality is consistently great, and the vibe is relaxed. They’ve expanded to five locations across Yerevan, but my favorites are on Saryan Street and Isahakyan Street — both right in the city center. Each of these has outdoor seating, perfect for grabbing a cold draft beer and enjoying a hot summer evening.
If you're in the mood to dine casually, like a local, without sacrificing taste, Master Class Qabab is a spot I’d definitely recommend.
