Title: New Turkish Restaurant in Northampton
Post by: Bucko on September 20, 2007, 14:40:28 PM
Driving through Northampton last weekend and came across a restaurant called Marmaris, went in to enquire and yes its Turkish.
Had a meal, very nice and plentyful, just as you would expect. Told the owner I would mention it on this forum.

I think i'll give it a try tomorrow - Thanks for that information. Northampton could do with an alternative to the many indians. Was it reasonable? I went to the Moroccan opposite the Derngate last year as it was the nearest I could get to Turkey for my Birthday. I know different continent but in feel it was quite similar with a belly dancer etc etc. That was a good night but this I can't wait to try.

We went tonight and it was excellent - not an extensive menus but then only 4 tables. Nice men - I wowed them with a few Turkish words learnt from my Linguaphone PDQ CD's which arrived this week- usual Turkish hospitality, Baklava and Turkish Coffee on the house. No need for a starter as the portions are large especially with all the salad and bread. Highly recommended, I know this will become a regular haunt. just loved it - It was perfect, simple good food and good hospitality. 4*

Glad to hear you liked the restaurant, next time you go have a look upstairs, there are more tables and more private.

Does anyone know if this restaurant is still in business? Missing the Turkish cuisine a bit and as Northampton is only a short drive from Milton Keynes, works out perfect for me and two of my friends to go to  :)

There's an Istanbul Restaurant on the High Street, Wellingborough. Haven't been there for a number of years so not sure how good it is these days.

don't get dressed up - restaurant is probably a bit of an over exageration, you can sit and eat in there but don't get dressed up!

Aha okay. I hardly get dressed up anyway. Would a Fez be too much then?  ;) :D
