Lovely and healthy full breakfast - a generous serving, good variety of veg and cheese and toppings, two types of Turkish bread,and a fried egg. Nicely presented, and served with a glass of strong Turkish tea. Was offered an extra spinach pastry instead of ham or sausage to make my breakfast vegetarian. Great value for money! Will be back

Took my daughters for breakfast this morning and it was lovely. Kids breakfast is great value for money and the shakshuka was absolutely delicious. Lovely flatbreads too. Really friendly service; they even gave my girls a little Turkish bracelet each for free which was so sweet and they were so happy! We will definitely go back; highly recommend!

We came across Tulip whilst on a stopover from a long drive and were so pleased to come across this place. We ordered the Gourmet Turkish breakfast and kids breakfast and it went down a treat! The food was absolutely delicious and we received excellent customer service from such lovely owners! If we were local, we would definitely be regular customers. Thank you!
