The Chef reccomendWow a recent addition to the food scene in Cockermouth is Aspava a fantastic Mediterranean Mezze with Turkish influences, where can I start? As we arrived for our booked table (very advisable to book) and waited less than 2 mins before being shown to our table where the delicious food was overwhelming. It tasted sublime and the portions were far too large for us a Benson really benefitted from a doggy bag of meat afterwards. It's ace there.
Excellent food and service. Best spare ribs I’ve had in the UK. Special marinade and dressing for the salad make this genuinely unique and yummy.
Great place food amazing staff and chefs spot on you don't no what your missing try it ❤️🎉 it's a must book
Amazing quality! We had the mixed mezze & special for 2 people - every element was stunning. Visited Cockermouth for the first time & didn’t expect there to be a restaurant like this, it was incredible. Lovely restaurant with a great atmosphere..
Superb restaurant set smack bang in the middle of town. First time we had been to a Turkish restaurant and couldn’t have had a better meal. All staff were very friendly and helped out with the menu as wasn’t to sure what was what. Food was first class with the meat very tender and very tasty. Vegetarian options are available. Booking is advisable. You won’t be disappointed.
We go to Aspava at least once per month since it opened and the food is outstanding and so is the service every single time, they never disappoint. I have recommended my others and they have all loved it too.
We had our staff party here and it was excellent. The food was plentiful, delicious, appetizing, well-cooked. We tasted a lot of different offerings. The shareing plates were humongous. Hardly anyone managed to have pudding. Good Turkish wines, a good selection of drinks. Great place.
Kebab very good also serve Kendal mint cake liqueur which is hard to come by in restaurants, will go again
Came after reading all the great reviews and it did not disappoint. Staff were lovely and the food was delicious. Booked by email very easily. Would definitely recommend but maybe book ahead as it was very busy on the Friday night we visited.
This is my second visit. My family and I LOVE this place. The food is so tasty. The lamb ribs are to die for. The staff are attentive and lovely. The atmosphere is modern but cosy. If you’re in Cockermouth it’s a must!!!
Set back from the main street through a courtyard this delightful restaurant did not disappoint. It was buzzing when we arrived and service was quick - at least 4 chefs working hard in the open grill. The potato starter was surpisingly tasty and I tried for the first time a Turkish red wine and it was perfect for the cuisine we were enjoying. My wife had a generously stuffed aubergine which almost converted her to vegetarianism! I had a lamb kebab like no other kebab I have had before. The fusion of flavours was again a surprise but a very pleasant one. Good selection of ales on tap and in bottle, excellent pide and friendly and chatty staff. Really, what else do you need! A real titan in the Cockermouth eating scene.
We live to eat at this restaurant, the service is very good and the food is fantastic. Great choice for all courses
Amazing food every time, excellent service from friendly and knowledgeable staff, lovely atmosphere, would highly recommend.
Fabulous first visit, will definitely be going back. Friendly and efficient staff and a well put together menu with plenty of choice. 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We found this place on tripadvisor during a Christmas break staying in Cockermouth for a couple of nights. It was rated No1 so we thought we’d give it a go as we’ve never eaten in a Turkish restaurant before. We were recommended the meat sharing platter by the waitress and it didn’t disappoint, the lamb chops and ribs were especially mouthwatering. Everything was very tasty and full of flavour. The staff were very friendly and informative and we especially liked the fact that the owner and his wife took the trouble to circulate among the diners and have a friendly chat. No 1 for a reason, would definitely recommend giving this place a try if staying within 20 miles of this place . A Must.
Excellent!!! We visited as a group of friends, the food was amazing, great staff and very reasonable.
Lovely service, great food, nice setting! Can’t wait to return! We thoroughly enjoyed it. I’d recommend it to anyone!
Lovely food and great service the meal was very tasty we had the meal for 2 it was very nice and the Turkish wine great also wish it was closer to our home
The lamb ribs. I dream about them. Before going to aspava I'll talk about them 3 days before, after having them I go on and on about them for at least a week. I used to order other things and they were all fantastic, but once you go ribs there's no coming back from them! Best restaurant in town!
