Our Story

Rooted in Anatolia,
at home in London

Lahmacun Evi was born from a simple conviction: the best Turkish food doesn't need embellishment. A perfectly thin dough, the right balance of spice, and a few minutes in a roaring oven — that is the craft we have carried from Anatolia to the high street of Waltham Cross.

Every lahmacun leaves our kitchen the way it should: crisp at the edge, tender within, and bursting with the kind of flavour that only fresh ingredients and genuine know-how can produce. Our pide, our çorbalar, and our slow-cooked mains follow the same honest philosophy.

Come for the food. Stay for the warmth. We are open every day from early morning until late evening — because good food should never have to wait.

What Our Guests Say

A taste that stays with you

"The lahmacun here is the best I have had outside of Turkey. Thin, crispy, and the spicing is spot on. I keep coming back every week — the staff always make you feel like a regular."

"Had the kuzu incik last Friday and it was absolutely incredible — melt-in-the-mouth lamb with a sauce I wanted to mop up with everything. Genuinely one of the best meals I have had in London."

"Brought my whole family here on a Sunday. The mercimek corbasi warmed us up, the pide was enormous and delicious, and the ice cream at the end was the perfect finish. Brilliant value, brilliant food."

"I discovered Lahmacun Evi last month and I have already been four times. The sebzeli lahmacun is fantastic for vegetarians — full of flavour without compromising on texture. Outstanding spot."
