A'la Turca in Lancaster

Absolutely amazing food, possibly the best Turkish meal I've had in England. Friendly staff too and very reasonably priced. We'll definitely be back if ever passing!

Ordered from this restaurant, as it was one of the only restaurants open for delivery on uber with the current heat. I am so glad that I did! The portion sizes, value for money and taste were incredible! I highly recommend this restaurant 😊 a solid 5 stars 🌟

When I visited Lancaster, a Turkish restaurant caught my attention, and it was one of the most amazing

Café Istanbul is located in Lancaster town centre and as one would have guessed, serves Turkish cuisine. It is a simple, comfortable, non-flashy, casual dining restaurant & seeing Lahmacun (Turkish lavash with mince,like a thin crust pizza) on their menu was a good enough reason to give it a try.The ambience was comfortable with music, portraits and lamps giving it a good central Eurasian vibe. The Turkish coffee is an expresso shot served in dainty porcelain set. Small, but packs a punch, a Caffeine high is guaranteed. The Lahmacun was flavourful and the mix shish, a combination of lamb shish, chicken shish & lamb doner was great as a meal. The lamb & chicken shish felt a tad under seasoned but the lamb doner compensated for it.All meals were served with a generous serving of vegetables & greens, which did our gut some good. We were happy with the meal and would certainly recommend the lahmacun. We did have a small scare because they accepted only cash payment. (Did not notice the board) We are hoping it was a temporary glitch due to the card machine not functioning that day.

After dropping son at Lancaster uni went into Lancaster and decided on this restaurant for lunch, glad i did. Had humus starter and then sizzling lamb meal, lovely. Only downside is there's no wine or beer to top it off but i had a lovely drink called ayran which goes really well with the food here.

The best in food in Lancaster. We usually eat in but we also order on some occasions and the delivery service is excellent, food always arrives piping hot and delicious. We ate in few weeks ago and chose to have the large sharing platter think it was called, and WOW it was delicious. The service is outstanding, I have an Autistic son and they have so much awareness and the staff always go out of their way to make him feel at ease. Best in town!!!

This is one the best restaurant I've visited in the last year. Came here with my friends and cousins and we so much loved. The attendant and cooks were lovely. Let our pics speak for us.

Went there for lunch with my daughters. The food was very good and portion sizes decent. However the overall service left question marks.We ordered three items, two arrived but the third -a Pide did not. On enquiring from the waitress, she realised she had forgotten to enter it on the computer. It was surprising she did not note the order down as she took it. In all fairness, she did apologise, but it was a shame that one of us had to wait 15 minutes more whilst the other two finished their meal.It was even more surprising that the restaurant did not accept card payments. It is a fairly large establishment and especially during the current situation where cash handling is not very popular they think it is acceptable to operate on a cash only basis. So, one of us had to walk to the bank in heavy rain to get the cash to pay the bill.

Visited this restaurantGood locationPlan Parking before as not nearby, but great walks when walking to this place through the town centreWhen we got thereWe were immediately attended tooIt a clean and quiet placeGood atmosphereWe ordered Mix donner and chips, Chicken and rice and LahmacunAll well cooked and flavoursome.Will visit again

Best Turkish restaurant in town. Very friendly service and food is clean prepared and always delicios. We try several dishes, our favourite is Lahmacun, Turkish pizza, burgers are very delicious and BIG. Greek salad was very nice too and Gozleme. Feta cheese is nice and especially Spinach & Onion Gozleme we will definitely will order again. All food was freshly prepared and fast take away delivery too. I would definitely recommend this restaurant with genuine Turkish food. 👍
