If the brightly coloured façade is any indication then dining at Gallipoli Café is surely an interesting experience. Take a cue from diners on the outdoor patio happily sipping Turkish coffee or Efes Pilsener, and then prepare yourself to step inside a lively interior filled with ornamental lamps and candles.

The menu reflects Lebanese, Turkish and Mediterranean tastes with freshness and variety being the hallmark of Gallipoli Café's cooking. Flavours are mostly classical as evident in meat moussaka, layers of minced beef and aubergine topped with cheese and béchamel sauce, and lean and tender lamb knuckle on the bone baked in its own juice with potatoes and rosemary. Bright tastes of chickpeas and broad beans remain alive in a falafel and kiymali borek, deep-fried Ottoman spring rolls stuffed with minced beef and pine kernels are worth exploring.

Whether it's a birthday party or just about any special occasion Gallipoli Café is one place where you can be assured that everything is done the fun way.
