They don't take reservations, only walk-ins. There's usually a queue out the door, but it moves quickly. I think the reason the queue moves so fast is that the service inside is very efficient. You can bring your own alcohol, as they don’t sell it on the premises. If you want to enjoy your meal comfortably, I do not recommend coming here; it's more of a 'eat quickly and leave' kind of place. As a Turkish person, I found the food to be quite good. The Adana kebab was excellent, and I definitely recommend it.
Classic old Mangal 1 started in 1991, very Traditional classic Turkish hidden gem. Warm staff. Simple service and great food. Nothing much to talk action and food talks about itself.
Definitely the best Turkish I’ve ever tasted, couldn’t quite believe how flavoursome and succulent everything was. A really iconic restaurant and perfect for a special occasion.
Mangal 1 is my favourite Turkish restaurant in town. Food, environment and Services are superb. BYOB is always welcome. Highly recommended
Approaching Mangal 1 in Stoke Newington, you’re greeted by a theatrical plume of smoke, glowing in the evening light like a signal from the chef himself. The air hums with the crackle of coals and the rhythmic hiss of sizzling fat, as rows of skewers rotate under the watchful eyes of chefs who could probably grill in their sleep.nnPassing through the fragrant curtain of spiced smoke, you step into a dining room that feels like a love letter to an alternative Turkey. The walls are adorned with surreal, crass, and wonderfully crude collages, like a mishmash of kitsch postcards and fever dreams. It’s art that teeters between bad taste and brilliance, but somehow, it charms you. It’s unpolished, unapologetic, and perfectly at home.nnThe food? Dishes flow seamlessly from the grill, carrying with them the unmistakable scent of flame and smoke. No frills, no unnecessary embellishments—just honest, vulnerable food that tells its story straight. Each bite feels like an embrace, transporting me to the small open-grill barbecues of Karpaz, a Turkish village where the scent of charred meat mingles with the sea breeze.nnAnd the service? It’s as if you’ve wandered into the family home of a relative you didn’t know you had, and they’re determined to make sure you never leave hungry. The staff glide between tables with an ease that’s both comforting and unobtrusive, making sure everyone feels looked after, no matter how busy it gets.nnSitting amid the hum of chatter and clinking glasses, Mangal 1 offers honest food, soulful service and walls full of cheeky art.
