How Many Calories Are in Hummus and Falafel?

NAYA Nutrition Calculator: The Short Answer

The Full Breakdown: What Is in the Hummus & Pita + Falafel Roll?

The full profile of the Hummus & Pita + Falafel Roll at NAYA: 940 calories, 26g of protein, 114g of carbohydrates, 42g of fat, 15g of fibre, 7g of sugar and 1600mg of sodium. Against a 2,000-calorie reference day, that is 47% of the day's calories, 70% of the sodium guideline and 14% of the 50g sugar daily value — which is why the same item can be a light choice in one day and the whole budget in another.

Where those calories sit matters as much as the total. Protein contributes 104 of them, carbohydrate 456 and fat 378 — so the Hummus & Pita + Falafel Roll is a carb-led item, which is why pairing it with a lean protein usually balances the meal. That split, not the headline number alone, is what decides how long the meal keeps you full.

How Does It Compare With the Rest of the NAYA Menu?

One number means little without the menu around it. The table below lines the Hummus & Pita + Falafel Roll up against the lightest item at NAYA, the highest-protein item, the best protein-per-calorie pick and the heaviest item on the menu.

For context, the NAYA Nutrition Calculator tracks 17 items, and the average one runs about 299 calories. 11 of them come in under 300 calories and 13 under 500, while the heaviest — the Beef Shawarma Bowl — reaches 640. Where a single item sits inside that spread matters more than the item's reputation: menus, not names, decide what a meal costs.

What Pushes the Number Up (and How to Pull It Down)?

At NAYA, the headline item is rarely the whole story: size upgrades, sauces, cheese and the side you add by habit regularly contribute as much as the main itself. The menu's own extremes prove the point — the same kitchen produces the Hot Sauce (serving) at 10 calories and the Beef Shawarma Bowl at 640. The gap between a light visit and a heavy one is almost never the restaurant; it is two or three quiet additions.

The reliable defence is to decide the extras on purpose. Keep one rich addition — a sauce, a cheese, a dessert — rather than stacking them, and let high-volume, low-calorie items do the filling: the Falafel Roll leads this menu for fibre at 9g, and fibre is what makes a lighter order still feel like a meal three hours later.

• Lightest item on the menu: Hot Sauce (serving) — 10 calories
• Heaviest item on the menu: Beef Shawarma Bowl — 640 calories
• Best protein per calorie: Chicken Shawarma (protein portion) — 11.5g per 100 calories
• Items under 300 calories here: 11 of 17

What About the Sodium and Sugar?

Calories get the attention, but at NAYA the quieter numbers deserve a look. The saltiest item on the menu, the Beef Shawarma Bowl, carries 1380mg of sodium — 60% of the full day's 2,300mg guideline in a single item — while the least salty, the Mint Lemonade, carries just 15mg. Salt rarely tracks calories: plenty of light-looking orders are sodium-heavy, and plenty of hearty ones are moderate.

Sugar is more concentrated. The Mint Lemonade holds 30g — more than the American Heart Association's suggested full-day limit for women (25g) — while most savoury items sit in single digits. The practical rule: check the drink and dessert line first, because that is where the sugar in a NAYA order almost always lives.

How Does This Fit the Rest of Your Day?

No NAYA order happens in isolation, so place this one against a reference day of about 2,000 calories, 2,300mg of sodium and a 50g sugar daily value. The average item in the NAYA Nutrition Calculator runs about 299 calories, which means a typical one-item-plus-side order lands near a third of the day's energy before a drink is counted. That is not a problem to solve — it is a budget to be aware of, and the awareness is most of the value: the rest of the day can run lighter precisely because lunch was counted.

The pattern that works for most people is asymmetry. On a day when NAYA is the main event, let the other meals be simple and protein-led, drink water by default, and treat the Mint Lemonade (30g of sugar) as the dessert decision made in advance rather than at the till. On a day when the other meals are the occasion, NAYA can be the light one instead — the Hot Sauce (serving) at 10 calories proves the menu supports it. Either way, the plan is made once, calmly, instead of being renegotiated at every meal.

• Menu average: ~299 calories per item across 17 tracked items
• Lightest anchor: Hot Sauce (serving) — 10 calories
• Best protein per calorie: Chicken Shawarma (protein portion) — 11.5g per 100 cal
• Fibre leader: Falafel Roll — 9g, against a 28g daily target
• Salt ceiling to watch: Beef Shawarma Bowl — 1380mg in one item

The Bottom Line

Hummus & Pita and Falafel Roll together come to 940 calories at NAYA. If your build differs from the standard one — an extra sauce, a different size, a swapped side — run it through the NAYA Nutrition Calculator before you order: thirty seconds there replaces every guess in this article with your exact total.
