About Ibo's Bar & Restaurant

On the High Street in Hitchin, Ibo's Bar & Restaurant serves Mediterranean food alongside a cocktail lounge. The menu draws on Turkish and Mediterranean cooking, with baklava offered for dessert. It runs on a walk-in basis, so no reservation is needed before sitting down. The bar and restaurant open daily, giving diners a consistent option whether stopping in for a meal or for drinks. The pairing of a full cocktail list with the food menu shapes the format, allowing the space to work as a bar visit or a sit-down dinner. Guests order at their own pace across the day, since the doors stay open on a daily schedule rather than limited service windows.

Customer Review Summary

The mix grill and the filet steak shish draw repeated praise, with reviewers calling the latter possibly the best meal they'd had. Close behind, diners highlight the Sarma Chicken Beyti, Mix Three Shish, and a lunchtime spread of hummus and butterfly prawns followed by chicken skewer and moussaka, with the homemade baklava and Turkish coffee singled out for dessert. Portions are repeatedly described as generous and the food as fresh, with several reviewers returning multiple times in a month. Staff are consistently called friendly and welcoming, and walk ups are accepted without booking. One visit notes a personal touch, eclipse glasses handed out so diners could watch the eclipse during their meal. No recurring complaints appear across these accounts.

    “Great lunchtime menu, delicious home cooked food, decent sized portions. We had the hummus & the butterfly prawns as starters and the chicken skewer + the moussaka as mains. Everything was delicious specially the home made baklava! Kind, welcoming staff. 100% recommend.”

    “Absolutely lovely experience at Ibo’s Hitchin! The food was amazing and the service was so lovely. The owner was genuinely so kind, and the lady working FOH was equally lovely and welcoming. They even gave us eclipse glasses so we could safely watch the eclipse, which was such a thoughtful touch and made the evening even more special. Would definitely recommend! ❤️”

    “Staying in Hitchin this evening and was looking for somewhere to eat and stumbled upon this restaurant. Ordered the mix grill and an efes lager. What a lovely meal it turned out to be. The meat was cooked perfectly and the salad was so nice it complimented the rice and meat perfectly. Portion size was perfect. Friendly staff and didn't have to wait long either. Definitely would recommend this restaurant. One of the better Turkish ones I have been to. Thank you”
