Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Thank you for yet another great meal. Great service (and coffee!) as always. If you fancy delicious food that is a bit different, but still familiar, this is the place for you."
"Came for brunch with my wife, and thought this place was absolutely brilliant. Service was great, nice background music, and then the food… My wife had the Turkish eggs, and I had the squid/haddock kedgeree - both were outstanding. Turkish coffee was delicious too. 10/10, can’t wait to return!"
"Fantastic food and wonderful service! Their evening menu is absolutely amazing!. I went with friends and we enjoyed delicious starters and mains every dish was beautifully prepared. The staff were very friendly throughout. Highly recommend if you’re after great food and a relaxed atmosphere."
"A truly lovely little Turkish restaurant that we keep coming back to. The food is absolutely superb — fresh, full of flavour, and clearly cooked with care. Everything we’ve tried has been delicious, and the portions are generous without ever feeling heavy. What makes it even better is how reasonably priced it is; the quality far exceeds what you’d expect for the cost."
"Delicious green toast for breakfast, suitable for vegans, fresh green veg, sour dough, hummus and avocado with delicious spices and oil. Had two great oat lattes too! Cool relaxed background sounds with good speakers. If I was local it would he a regular hangout, but it was a welcome change from service stations on a long road trip today. Thank you to the lovely lady for letting me charge my phone too. Sorry no photos, I ate too fast!"
"Fantastic lunch, Turkish eggs and Chicken Shish. All cooked fresh, delicious and the salad with the shish was lovely. Really tasty chicken. Good service. We used to live round the corner, shame we moved!"
"Enjoyed a super working brunch earlier this week. Fabulous feta scrambled eggs and great coffee, lovely relaxed cafe, would also recommend their Turkish eggs Kings Road has some superb cafes!!"
"Had the evening menu which doesn't show up on the website. Think it changes every week. All I can say is that it was the best food I have had in a long time. Superb lamb. Partner had monkfish. Excellent service. Why isn't this place full every night?"
