Istanbul in Bochum

Everything is very tasty, friendly staff

I cannot understand the poor rating given by the previous speaker. Experience the staff as warm, generous and social. The vegan lentil soup is super tasty, is served with flatbread, is cheap (€5) and is highly recommended both on site and to-go. I would be very happy about more vegan dishes wherever food is offered - to protect our planet.

I just found €5 and suddenly they blocked me 😡👎

Unfriendly staff! You are insulted as a “son of a bitch” and a “p*sser” because the door is easily blocked by passers-by waiting for the bus. I would prefer not to give a star at all.

First review 😎 We decided to try the food there this time and we were pleasantly surprised. Ordered takeout (you can eat well there) and ordered a doner kebab and a chicken skewer with salad and fries 🍟. They also came with two sauces. The chicken skewer was crispy but juicy, and the fries were also perfectly crispy. The doner kebab was good, as it should be! The service/staff were very friendly, albeit a bit chaotic. We should have deducted a star for that, but the ladies and gentlemen made up for it with their humanity. You could also get free tea (I think), I didn't see a price tag. So, it was really good, exactly what you'd expect from a good Turkish-run snack bar with seating. We'll try again to see if the first impression holds up.

Ordered to take away (you can eat well on site) ordered a kebab and a chicken skewer with salad and fries 🍟. There were also two sauces. The chicken skewer was crispy but juicy and the fries were also extremely crispy. The kebab was good, as it should be! The service/staff was very friendly, although a bit chaotic. You would have to deduct a star because of this, but the ladies and gentlemen made up for it with humanity. Plus you could have tea for free (I think) and didn't see a price tag. So great, that's exactly how you imagine a good Turkish-run snack bar with seating... We will now continue to try more often to see if the first impression lasts.
