About Chorba Cafe

Coburg regulars head to this sunlit cafe for generous communal Turkish morning feasts and homestyle classics. Settle into the outdoor tables for the Royal or Ottoman breakfast spreads—stacked platters piled high with cheeses, olives, dips, and warm baskets of bread, paired with steaming kettles of black tea. Those after smaller plates order tangy çılbır poached in garlic yogurt or piping-hot pans of menemen and spiced sujuk. Finish the meal over Turkish coffee served with a sweet cube of Turkish delight.

  • Communal Breakfast Feasts: Massive spreads like the Royal and Ottoman platters come crowded with dips, cheeses, warm bread, and kettles of Turkish tea.
  • Homestyle Halal Specialties: Traditional savory staples span garlic-yogurt çılbır eggs, sujuk, shakshoka, and rich bowls of manti.
  • Classic Turkish Coffee: Strong, freshly brewed Turkish coffee arrives accompanied by a bite of Turkish delight.
