Welcome to Lahmacino Bournemouth

“ We were visiting Bournemouth as a family, came across this place. After seeing the wood fire oven we were sure this place is authentic and they know what they do. We ordered Lahmacuns and Pides, both were thin in dough and meat fillings were great. Staff are friendly. Definitely reccomend !! ”

“ Food was excellent, good value for money and service was good. ”

“ Finding an authentic Turkish restaurant in Bournemouth is not always easy, but as someone who never tires of searching out good Turkish food, I was delighted to discover Lahmacino on Charminster Road. This small, welcoming spot immediately sets the tone with its cosy atmosphere, and the open lahmacun and pide oven in the dining room adds both warmth and anticipation. Watching the chef at work as the dough is stretched, topped and slid into the flames is a sensory prelude to the meal itself. True to the tradition of Turkish hospitality, the experience began with complimentary offerings – a fresh salad, a selection of meze and warm pita bread. This custom is one of the things that elevates Turkish dining beyond the purely culinary, embodying generosity and conviviality. It’s a detail I greatly appreciate, and one that instantly makes you feel at home. The menu is extensive in the best possible way, echoing the spirit of a proper Turkish kebab house: Lahmacun, Pide, Adana Kofte, Lamb Shish, Sarma Beyti, Ali Nazik – all the essentials are there. We opted for Lahmacun, Pide and Adana Kofte. The Lahmacun was thin and crisp with a perfectly balanced topping of herbs and spiced mince, light yet deeply satisfying. The Pide was pillowy, slightly smoky from the oven, and comfortingly moreish. But the standout was the Adana Kofte – juicy, boldly spiced and cooked with just the right amount of char. As someone who has eaten countless versions of this dish, I can say this was impressively well-executed: tender, flavourful and true to its Anatolian roots. To finish, we had Turkish tea and Kunefe – a fitting finale, with the sweet, syrup-soaked pastry and molten cheese pairing beautifully with the tannic lift of the tea. A final word of thanks must go to Melis, who served us with warmth, speed and attentiveness. Her friendly approach elevated the whole experience and left us with the clear sense that this was more than just a meal – it was genuine hospitality. Lahmacino is a gem for anyone seeking authentic Turkish flavours in Bournemouth, and a place I’ll be glad to return to. ”

“ Delicious authentic Turkish cuisine served with a smile :) Highly recommend trying Lamp Soup, known as Paca, and the speciality Turkish Thin Pizza, Lahmacun. ”
