Before you head over
Practical guidance on shisha presence, family facilities, and navigating the menu
Timing for Smoke-Free Dining
Shisha is served inside the dining area, which creates noticeable smoke during dinner and late evening hours. Families dining with young children or non-smokers who prefer a smoke-free meal should visit during morning or early brunch hours.
Pram and High Chair Accommodation
The dining room is spacious with ample clearance for prams and high chairs available on site, making it suitable for larger group meals and family gatherings with young kids.
Navigating Traditional Specialties & Vegetarian Options
While the menu features adventurous authentic specialties like stuffed intestines (kroush) and raw spiced lamb (kibbeh nayeh), vegetarian diners can comfortably order freshly prepared falafel, manoush, dips, and knafeh with guidance from the floor staff.
