CheMen Cafe & Restaurant brings Turkish and Mediterranean cooking to Stoke Newington Road in a relaxed venue that serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. The restaurant continues decades of hospitality experience at this address while developing its identity as a neighbourhood cafe, dining room and gathering place. Its broad opening hours make it suitable for a morning meal, a quick lunch, an evening dinner or a longer visit with family and friends.
Breakfast ranges from Turkish and Mediterranean spreads to English plates, omelettes, menemen, poached eggs and sweeter choices such as pancakes or French toast. Olives, feta, halloumi, pastry rolls, Turkish bread and tea build a traditional start to the day, while avocado, mushrooms and vegetable based combinations provide lighter alternatives. Coffee, fresh juice and smoothies complete the morning selection.
Later in the day, diners can choose from meze, salads, wraps, traditional cooked dishes, kebabs and grilled meat. Hummus, falafel, halloumi, stuffed vine leaves and cacik lend themselves to sharing, while chicken, lamb and Adana wraps provide a straightforward individual meal. Mixed grills and set meze selections allow groups to explore a wider range of textures, herbs and savoury flavours.
The restaurant also supports cultural and community events, including live performances, poetry gatherings and book launches, giving the space a role beyond everyday dining. A terrace provides outdoor seating in suitable weather, while the roomy interior works well for groups. The complete menu below brings the available dishes and current prices together so guests can compare breakfast, meze, grilled food and drinks before visiting.
