Turkish / Mediterranean · Islington
A beloved Upper Street institution, Gallipoli has been welcoming families for years with its cosy rooms hung with Turkish memorabilia, generous mezze plates and chargrilled kebabs. There's a dedicated kids' menu, highchairs throughout, and a rooftop terrace for warmer days. The relaxed pace and lively atmosphere make it well-suited to families who don't want to feel rushed. Halal-friendly menu with plenty of vegetarian options alongside the grills.
