Memo’s Bar and Kitchen is a Turkish restaurant at 149-151 Allerton Road in Liverpool. Its stylish but approachable dining room serves food from breakfast through the evening, making it suitable for a morning catch-up, a relaxed lunch or a longer meal with family and friends.
Turkish charcoal cooking anchors the main menu. Chicken and lamb shish, Adana kebab, lamb chops and mixed grills arrive with the depth of flavour created over the grill, while slow-cooked lamb shank, güveç and moussaka provide comforting alternatives.
Meze encourages diners to share, with hummus, cacık, grilled halloumi, börek, calamari and aubergine dishes among the hot and cold choices. Vegetarian güveç, halloumi kebab and vegetarian moussaka give meat-free diners several substantial options rather than leaving them with sides alone.
Breakfast includes full English, vegetarian and vegan plates, while wraps, salads and lighter lunches broaden the daytime selection. Wine, cocktails and other bar drinks complete the evening experience; guests with allergies should check the latest menu and speak with staff about ingredients and kitchen procedures.
