Cappadocia in Babergh

We have just been to what has been such an amazing experience, the food is absolutely delicious, full of flavour and freshness. The portion sizes are huge! So it's a good idea to take a group - more people more to share. The restaurant itself is much nicer than I expected. And after staying this side for 8.. years I'm sorry I hadn't tried it sooner. I will be back and add photos - I was Hangry so didn't take photos..

Loved the food had a mezze and it was so so good. Staff were super friendly. Highly recommend i will definitely be coming back.

Just enjoyed a lovely family meal. Fresh, tasty, excellent value and lovely staff.

Went there last night had a lahmacun it was really nice

A hidden gem 💎 The service was impeccable, taken care of from the moment I stepped inside, seated and menu provided, drinks were ice cold. The food is exquisite 👌 Well seasoned lamb and chicken, the salad was well prepared and the flat bread was warm and delicious. The accompanying chili and garlic sauces were perfect, not too hot nor overpowering. Top tier dining experience, will certainly be coming back.

Been there a few times with friends always great food and service

My favourite turkish restaurant.

the restaurant is in a service area, and the information on the outside gives no indication that this is a Turkish restaurant; if we hadn't been told about it, in a million years we would not have gone there - which would be a pity, as the food is very good, the wine is good and not over priced, and the experience of eating there was fine. It's true to cross from one side of the road to the other is quite complicated in a car, and probably impossible on foot! This restaurant should be in a better location, it's wasted here

The food is very delicious, and a large portion. One minus, it was very uncomfortable to sit at the table right next to the toilet, and there was not enough music in the background.

Food amazing. But far too expensive update july 2024: ordered two platters. came to £70. the man made me feel happy by saying he would add extra sauce and salad and stuff like this. this is a trick because he knows that the amount of food we got for that money is not even worth £40 elsewhere. food had lack of meat and chicken in platter. not to mention the owner was trying to make me take out cash when they had a perfectly working card machine. they made it sound as if they never take card when we go there all the time and pay by card. original rating: overall: 4 stars food: 4 stars service: 4 stars atmosphere: 5 stars new rating: overall: 3 stars food: 3 stars. (nice but lack of quantity) service: 3 stars atmosphere: 5 stars

Amazing food! Gr8 service! A+++++++

We came in Friday evening. The food was lovely and the services was brilliant whilst eating. The only problem was that once we had eaten are mains and desserts, we were made to feel rushed out by the staff. I would have completely understood if they were busy or if it was near closing time but it wasn’t. We Spent £151.00 for 4 people and feel we should have been able to relax and finish are drinks in peace.

Stopped during a long drive, was just expecting a bacon roll or something... But once inside, it's a nice restaurant. A bit pricey (for the situation - just stopping for some late lunch), but I went for the Chef's special (£25). ...and it was the nicest thing I've had in ages, and was really worth the price. Friendly staff and nicely decorated too.

Lovely food. Great service but prices have sky rocketed

Just had an amazing meal here. Lovely place inside. Soooooo clean. Staff was amazing and the area the food is prepared and cooked in is so nice. U must try as the food is next level. And the wine list was very good. Please book as it gets very busy on weekends. Many thanks

Amazing friendly staff completely accessible and accommodating Friendly and fast service. Would definitely come again.. Would recommend

We used to be regulars at this place as the food has been good and parking is convenient. Unfortunately over the last year or so the service has been very poor with some prepubescent kid running front of house whose quite rude. The portion size has noticeably shrunk, yet the menu prices have gone up - very odd! And to top it off there's also a compulsory service charge on top of the over-priced food Another thing that i find disturbing is that they want to sometimes be paid in cash, who in 2024 carries cash and where is one to find it at this remote location? Although we dont want to, we all pay taxes in some way or another. Its not acceptable that they charge as much as they do for their food yet attempting to avoid VAT! I'm assuming the place is under new ownership. If you are ok with parking in town better Turkish restaurants in the town centre portion are bigger and way better value!

Such small portions not enough for 2 people let alone 4

Very nice place with nice people , amazing food , this is plate for 2 , very big .

I had an incredibly disappointing experience at Crappadocia due to the behavior of young and disrespectful server. They were rude, dismissive, and exhibited fatherless behavior traits throughout our meal. It was clear they had no regard for customer service, acting in a way that was disrespectful and inappropriate. This server's conduct significantly detracted from our dining experience, and I won't be returning to this establishment

Food great, but far too much, restaurant ok, can see food being cooked. Please read small print on menu about service charge thou, coz they don't tell you cheeky ! , wasn't happy about this. Staff polite.

Food average and over priced - 10% compulsory service charge which the waiter said you can not remove even though the service was inadequate.

We have the Platter for 4 and took it away to eat at home. Lovely so scrummy. Would recommend highly

Excellent food and service on a busy Friday evening, our server was really friendly and attentive. Quality of food was evident, make sure you go with a healthy appetite. Dishes for all dietary requirements and price great value.

Delicious food. Only 2 waiters but somehow the run the front well. Food comes out quick. Even the deserts were brilliant. Would definitely return if in the area again.

The staff is very un respectful and very rude with their paying customers.

Love this place. Food is incredible, good service.

Great fish and chips friendly staff.

Excellent meal here in our way back from Colchester Zoo. Humus, Bread, sukuk & chicken Islander where amazing ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We called to eat on our way home from being in Holland with family and were very impressed with the food and service. It was very busy but we got our food quickly as we said we needed to get back on the road to get home.

the location is not perfect, but the food is OK, when it comes to serving, the waiters are not so welcoming, they behave rudely, and the prices are very high for the food you get, besides that, they also put a service charge 10% which is not worth it.

Great food along with excellent service. It's a real shame that the restaurant is not situated in a more urban area as it would be teeming with customers

Well don't judge a book by its cover. We have avoided going here because of it being next to a garage and not looking very nice outside but wow we was very impressed. I am veterinarian and they kindly made me a Hallumi Skewers that wasn't on the menu. That was delicious. The grill staff was so nice and lots of chefs that you can see cooking from your table. I would highly recommend this place 👏 also its lovely decor inside and very clean.

Not good service stuff, stuff unprofessional specially manager, if you ask him for something extra he makes you to feel uncomfortable ,

The most non professional staff! 😡😡😡😡😡🥵 Even if the food is very good,is non sense because of the staff.

I just been there and the waitresses is VERY non professionally people's. Is very big racism in there and they like the people do what they want, not viceversa. 🤨🤨

The worst fish and chips I've had in a long time

Amazing food and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend.

Bit slow through take away but it was a Saturday evening and we really should have called ahead. So that's our fault. Service was friendly, and the food was amazing every mouthful looking forward to when I'm next in the area

Really tasty food, generous portions and great options for children too. A+++

Excellent people, recommended to travellers.

The food is excellent. BUT the prices are now absolutely ridiculous, I get the cost of living crisis etc but when you pay £68 for a platter with rice, that’s a lot. So one expects a decent amount. Especially when it was around £55 pounds only a couple of years ago, and when the portions were good, now it seems portions are really rationed. The amount of rice they give is laughable. Really sad to write this review as we literally used to get it regularly, especially on occasions so minimum 5 times a year, not including the in person visits in between), but after the experience recently- it feels excessive and sadly not worth it.

Perfect food, friendly staff. Still the best Turkish food in the area.

Good kebabs. Actually cooked on real coals rather than gas.

Really good food full of excellent flavors. Nice peaceful place to grab lunch. Will be back again for 👍

very nice people and very tasty food. 10/10

Delicious food, pretty good size portions. The (I believe) mum and daughter on the takeaway counter were lovely, chatty and helpful. Bit annoying that they only take cash and not card. Also impossible to find the menu anywhere online which would be useful too.

Popped in for a load of take away chips for bonfire night. Lovely friendly staff, super fab chips and great value too. Fully recommended

The service was poor the food was poor just over all poor its a shame I couldn't rate it any lower

Food here is amazing, and very well priced , can be quite busy, but definitely worth a visit, most definitely be back soon

Very good food, both Turkish and Fish and Chips, good service and prices. I eat their food far too often for my own good.

Went here for lunch with work colleagues 😋 food was really nice generous portions. Lots of choice and even the option of fish and chips from their other eatery next door if you don't fancy anything Turkish. We had a lovely time! 😍

Only have take away fish and chips from this restaurant. I often order from home and collect. The rock eel is excellent and is cooked to order.

Superb food, excellent service, marvellous meal, something on the menu for everyone.

Overpriced. Not friendly. Not fully Halal. Food is very blunt and tasteless and mince koffta is stinky. I will not recommend it. If your absolutely drunk it might be the place for you .

Been here before and food was good, but on this visit the whole family had upset stomach’s, one directly after eating the others a few hours later. I would not return because in my opinion something was definitely not right with the food.

Very nice food. Highly recommend!

Card only and food is WELL over saltered you can even smell it through the bag

The whole experience from start to finish is incredible, the waitress was always so friendly and kind! We had a wonderful time and enjoyed delicious food!

Lovely place with amazing location. One the the best Turkish restaurant in the area. Easy approach by car but without car it’s difficult to reach. Nice decor with Turkish culture. Staff was amazing and well behaved. But the main part is fresh food. I love the mixed platter. The starter was delicious don’t know the name of the dishes but i love them. Good place to visit with friends and best for couples at night with amazing lighting.

Stopped on journey for a bite ,staff very helpful, food was great.

Wow very disappointed as unfortunately I did not have cash only card although I had £2.50 and you couldn't even give me less chips for £2.50...... I asked if you could do less chips but unfortunately you couldn't even do that for someone who was hungry..... to be honest I won't ever go here any more.....

Pretty standard Turkish menu, overpriced for what you get. Ordered starters and mains, once finished the starters we thought we'd help by stacking plates for waiting staff to clear. Was told by manager to eat on the same plates as we just had the starters on (never experienced this in any other restaurant). They did replace the used plates in the end. Mains came along one of the order was a platter for 4 people at a cost of £85.00 wow no way it was for 4 people maybe suitable for 2-3 people! Couldn't finish some of the mains as the chicken were over salted. Once finished asked for which had a 10% service charge on top of the final bill. Overall would I recommend or return? No menu basic food and presentation substandard drinks expensive waiting staff are slow to clear table had to call over, restaurant too smokey. Shame looked forward to coming here.

Food is always amazing. Quick service for collection, never waiting too long. Seems expensive initially until you realise how much food you get and the quality has been great every time.

Best in the business never had a bad meal from here the year I’ll been I can recommend 4 people and drinks (few more then one + bottle of rose) under a £145.00 I’m very happy man for that price. Only downside is £10 service charge in your bill, in my opinion that should be left to customers discretion otherwise A++++++++++++++++

Staff were pleasant and food was enjoyable. Atmosphere lacking as no other customers. Suggest very dirty windows are cleaned!

Amazing food, and staff were always happy to help, portions sizes are more than enough. Although it was more expensive than I expected, I was more than happy with the overall experience

Shame really. Drive past this place pretty much every week for last 3 years. Went in this week for a meal. Food was pretty good actually. Couldn't fault it. Nice flavours and good quality ingredients. But the service was so miserable and poor, even the good food can't raise my rating from 2 to 3 stars. Male server was poor. Miserable greeting. No smile. Hardly spoke. When he did speak he sounded pretty rude and short. Spent £90 on a 2 course meal for 2 persons but left feeling underwhelmed. The bits that are hard they actually get right and bits that are quite easy to get right..... they got so badly wrong. Shame but if you can't be bothered to greet a customer there are plenty of other restaurants that will. Would not go back and couldn't recommend to others, simply because of the miserable/poor attitude displayed throughout the service.

Tasty food but don’t reccomend ! The personnel start smoking into the kitchen wich is an open space , and i was there with a 4 months old baby !the smoke was everywhere At the end they charged me 10 % a service cherge wich i told them i don’t agree with that but i was told they can’t do anything and said this is legal to be added even without my consent. Verry shamefull behaviour from their staff! Personaly i don’t reccomend !

Great flours Grest food Great service Will be back

First time... takeaway was amazing. Lamb was so tender!! Il be back!!!

We from North London and was in Ipswich area for a spa break. This is the best kebab restaurant that we had in England. And maybe the best Turkish food that you can’t even have in Turkey. Delicious food, friendly staff, cheap. What else do you want? Definitely highly recommended.

Food very good maybe potion size for some people not enough. But for us was just right. Looked like new waiting staff who were fine with us but felt the manager if that was who he was wasn't very patient with them which annoyed me.

Family meal with excellent choice and outstandingly good cuisine. Very limited choice on menu for vegetarian main courses but they will adapt other non-veggie choices. The two main downsides were firstly the absolutely outrageous drinks prices and secondly the imposition of a ten per cent service charge.The menu prices are not cheap ... main courses except for the Pides (Turkish Pizza) generally being between£17 and £20 but portions were generous. However if you add a 10% service charge to a dish advertised at £20 then the actual cost is.. £22, NOT £20 so why not be honest and simply price the dishes according to what they actually cost. For a family of four having two courses plus drinks we are looking at a menu cost of around £30-£35 each so that will generate an additional service charge of around £12 to £14. Now the drinks ... Efes beer is priced at £6 for 500 ml Twelve Quid a Litre!!!!! And a bottle of wine such as a Rose which can be bought from a Supermarket for about £6 is charged at £21. Now charging corkage in a restaurant is normal and expected ... but a markup of nearly 400% is I think a little excessive. But that is what is happening in a great many places today and I dont think that this establishment is very much different. That's what happens. I'e at least rel;ieved that there isn't an additiona;l charge made for parking the car, visiting the loo, sitting on a chair or using a knife and fork. (Hey guys please don't take this as an idea for adding evenb more to the unseen costs) My real gripe however is the outrageous prices for soft drinks. It happened that none of our family drink alcohol for various reasons - health, driving, etc... So we ordered Diet Colas and fruit juice. The diet cola came in a small glass which had it been full might have contained 330ml - but it was less than 2/3rds full. And we were charged £3.00 for that. That's £3 for perhaps 250 ml which the same price as the Efes beer ... Twelve quid a litre for coca cola!!!!!!! Now I would describe that as an outrageous and audacious rip off. Sorry of that seems a harsh criticism but you, dear reader can be the judge of that. Having said which, I must conclude by saying that the quality of the food that we were served was very very good indeed. Outstanding cuisine and friendly staff. yes! Based on cuisine alone I would have given five stars but such a pity about the stealth taxes which reduce my assessment to three stars only. It's not just about the quality of the food which in this case is excellent, but honesty and transparency are also important.

Don't take cards below 35 pounds. Very disappointing.

I stopped off here on the way home for a bit of light lunch. Basically I really stopped to use the toilets, but was pleasantly surprised to have a Turkish restaurant stop off. I have been to Turkey a few times and love the cuisine. I scanned the menu, and decided that this was authentic, not wanting to spend a lot I chose a pride as my meal ( cheaper than the kebab options ), I was not sure what to expect, in Turkey pied is generally fast food - very much like a pizza. What arrived at my table was not exactly what I was expecting, I expected a much thinner flatbread, but what was delivered was a bit thicker than expected. However, this did not matter as I was hungry and the whole thing was delicious. It was just what I needed, and also came with a salad which I also found very tasty. So overall I was very satusfied with the food. Service wise it was adequate, though slightly long wait for the food ( the restaurant was not busy at all ), overall though very satisfied and I will stop here again. Next time I will try a kebab.

Only stopped for a takeaway coffe but it was one of the best coffee's I've had!

Went to the takeaway side and ordered fish and chips. Cooked fresh to order so bit of a wait but that's fine. Staff friendly, always clean, service good

Good grill, tasty food, sufficient quantity. A bit pricey but worth the quality.

Their food was nice great customer service, but the place was cold. I kept on chasing a fruit fly from my table. I would visit again

Year's ago I popped in for a takeaway vegetarian pizza while my car was charging and vowed to come back for a meal. Well I wasn't disappointed my wife had the special kebab & I had the Sebzeli kebab (vegetarian). We got a side of chips due to a mix up in our reading of the menu but the benefit was having proper chip shop chips. Both were very nice and the portion is large enough for us to ask for a doggy bag for the first time ever. I found room for a Tiramisu which was large enough for two and a bargain at the price these days. It tasted 😋 great. It was very cold outside and a bit chilled inside which I think is due to the ventilation system for the open kitchen area. Nothing to put me off but a note to dress warmly.

Their prices nowadays are a joke..even before the cost of living crisis..

Food very good and service was brilliant, Jimmy was very good in the service given.

Delicious food and friendly professional staff. Tashakur, Mrs I Kay

Nice place. Food was amazing and service was great.

Just stopped in for a coffee . Nice friendly welcome and good coffee

Lovely restaurant. Service a bit slow. Some of the staff are not super friendly.

We ordered by phone and explained one of us could not eat gluten ( severe allergy). We were assured that the ‘rice’ was ok. After returning home, the ‘rice’ looked like a whole grain and when we called to question it, we’re told it was bulgar Wheat. The lady was helpful and arranged for more meant to be cooked minus the ‘rice’ However, apart from this woman, staff appear not to be trained correctly with regard to allergens. This is the second time I have had a potential cross contamination I would sadly not eat there again until staff are properly trained.

First time here - very impressed! Wonderful service and delicious food. Billed our table of 12 people each separately with no quibble which some restaurants won't do. Can't wait to go back. Pictures backlava dessert, very authentic - generous portion

Take away for the family of 7 which all thoroughly enjoyed. Lamb and chicken very tender with good sauces. Big portions with dishes coming with rice and salad.

Just ok, food was ok... felt a little tired to be honest and very expensive for what we had. We have eaten at so many of trip advisors top rated restaurants over the years and this was really to expensive.

Useless never open when it says online

Delicious food. We stopped off just for coffee, but ended up having food too!

Came hear while working away food is spot on everything is clean very plesent staff so welcoming deffntly will be visiting again when down that way 😀

Stopped to charge and discovered Cappadocia. Excellent, authentic food and lovely staff.

Thought we would give this one a try as it's fairly local to us. Service was good and it was OK, food was good, but it's selling itself as a high class restaurant. £7 for a glass of Rose, £6 for a draft Efes etc.. food was good, just found it rather pricey for what it was.. service charge added to what was already a high bill so it was OK.. just over priced.

I stopped off to charge an electric car and popped over for a quick bite. I had no idea what to expect, but I was quickly blown away by Cappadocia had to offer. The food was exceptional and the portions generous without being overwhelming. Even though I normally live in the Middle East, I would definitely say this is some of the best Turkish food I have had for a long long time.

A random services stop on our way to Norfolk. We were about to get a sandwich from the Londis but decided to try this restaurant, not expecting much from a restaurant on the side of the motorway. The place was very clean and friendly, the food was fantastic. It was a bit expensive when you had to pay double the price of takeaway to sit in but the food was definitely worth it.

DO NOT let the location put you off, the food is very good probably some of the best in the area all perfectly cooked. Portion size is very good and the service is prompt. I couldn't ask for more.

The restaurant location is a little odd given that it sits behind a petrol station however it is fine. The place is very clean and the staff are helpful. The food was very nicely cooked and tasted great. Some dishes are a little expensive.
