Customer Review Summary
Turkish breakfast is what most reviewers return to, praised as authentic and delicious, with soft, warm bread and traditional Scottish, All Day and vegetarian plates available alongside it. Close behind are the Turkish brunch bagel, which one diner ordered with french toast, and Turkish coffee, which another singles out for its homely setting. Homemade pistachio baklava earns its own mentions, and one visitor who popped in just for it plans to return. Others cite a cappuccino that drew an audible gasp of joy, a matcha latte with oatmilk, and the Full Breakfast, served fast. Staff are repeatedly described as friendly, lovely and sweet, reviewers call the small cafe cosy, and one mentions plenty of Halal options. The one reservation comes from a three-star reviewer who found some of the meat gummy and mushy, though they still called it a great deal for a breakfast on the go. Another reviewer describes the Turkish bagels as freshly baked and still hot.
