Book NowAbout Yalla Bala
Electric Lane’s bustling hole-in-the-wall dishes up hefty, scratch-made Middle Eastern pitas packed edge to edge. Regulars head straight for the wood-smoke chicken shawarma, crisp falafel, or deeply seasoned vegan mushrooms stuffed into warm, house-baked bread.

Grab your pita, head into the open-air laneway courtyard, and pull up a seat with a cold beer poured from the bar next door.

Amy S Dietary-accommodating comfort options
Dietary choices and health requirements are catered to through flavour-packed vegan mushroom pitas as well as dedicated gluten-free salad bowls and chips.
Tasty salad bowls with either chicken or falafels - really delicious. The gluten free chips were yum. Owner/chef super friendly. So good to get gluten free food.
Julie Doyle Scratch-made components from bread to pickles
The venue prepares every element on-site, from fresh-baked pita bread to signature dill pickles, distinctive relishes, and rich garlic sauces.
each of the in-house salads, relishes and sauces had its own distinctive taste and flavour. The home-made dill pickle stood out.
