Taking its distinct taste inspirations mainly from Southeastern Anatolia Region, The Counter enriches its presentation and atmosphere with the cultural heritage of the Balkans.

Fire, both literally and figuratively, is at the heart of what we do here. Its igniting power fuels our passion and nurtures us with inspiration.

With this passion, The Counter seeks and finds the best artisans, be it a butcher, a blacksmith, or a potter, who are amorously committed to their crafts. It then brings the best of these crafts and techniques from their local ateliers to The Counter’s London location.

    I recently dined at The Counter, and I have to say, it was an amazing experience! The food was absolutely delicious, with authentic Turkish flavors and a creative twist. One standout dish I highly recommend is the fıstıklı çikolatalı babagannuş—a pistachio and chocolate-infused version of the classic babagannuş. It was incredibly unique and so well-executed. The balance of flavors was perfect, making it a must-try for anyone visiting the restaurant. The ambiance was warm and inviting, and the staff were friendly and attentive, adding to the overall great experience. Whether you’re craving traditional Turkish food or looking to try something new, The Counter should definitely be on your list.

    The place was virtually empty , so a bit of a surprise, therefore lacked in atmosphere. The food was good and imaginative , but not outstanding . The service was really good and friendly . The chef wanted to go home early so we were told the kitchen would be closed at 10 pm instead of 11 pm as announced . As we arrived at 9 pm it was a bit of a rush which was a shame .
