The Mediterranean Restaurant & Bar is a Turkish restaurant at 121 Magdalen Street in Norwich. Its warm, family friendly approach draws on Anatolian hospitality, creating a comfortable setting for lunch, dinner and celebratory group meals.

Traditional charcoal grilling is at the heart of the kitchen. Adana kebab, lamb shish, chicken wings and other meats take on the smoke and direct heat of the ocakbasi, while grilled sea bass and sea bream provide alternatives from the seafood selection.

Hot and cold mezze are designed for sharing, with choices such as hummus, cacik, saksuka and stuffed vine leaves. Freshly baked pide and bread, soups, salads and vegetarian or vegan pide options give the menu variety beyond the grill.

Turkish tea and sweets offer a fitting conclusion, while ayran, Turkish wine and raki complement different parts of the meal. Walk ins are welcomed, reservations are recommended at busy times, and larger tables can be secured for organised occasions.

Address: 121 Magdalen Street, Norwich NR3 1LN, England
