Lalezar Konağı

Western Anatolia


The cafe of this restored Ottoman mansion is a great place to put your feet up after exploring Kütahya. It does typical Turkish favourites of yaprak sarma (stuffed vine leaves), güveç (meat and vegetable stew) and köfte (meatballs).

There's also a very pleasant garden cafe serving snacks and light meals.
