TAS Bloomsbury is a Turkish and Mediterranean restaurant at 22 Bloomsbury Street, close to the British Museum. It is part of the restaurant group founded by Onder Sahan, whose first TAS opened on The Cut in 1999, and presents Anatolian hospitality in a bright, flower-fronted central London setting.

The kitchen draws on Turkish, Anatolian, Mesopotamian and wider Mediterranean traditions while giving many dishes a lighter, contemporary treatment. Fresh seasonal ingredients and aromatic spices run through the menu, which is organised to let diners share several mezes or build a conventional multi-course meal.

Red lentil soup, houmous and hot seafood plates lead into charcoal grills, casseroles, oven dishes and fish. House specialities include TAS Iskender with mixed grilled meats, crisp bread, tomato sauce and yoghurt, and Hunkar Begendi, a slow-cooked lamb stew served over smoked aubergine purée.

Vegetarian and vegan sections give plant-based diners meaningful choice, while baklava and Turkish coffee offer a fitting finish. Its location works well for pre-theatre meals, museum visits, business lunches and larger celebrations, and guests with allergies should discuss the current menu with their server.

Address: 22 Bloomsbury Street, London WC1B 3QJ, England
