Welcome to
Sumac & Saffron
TWO CULTURES. ONE TABLE. Turkish & Persian Kitchen & Bar in Hatfield. Two celebrated cuisines, served side by side proudly. Discover Turkish meze, charcoal-grilled kebabs and familiar favourites alongside Persian koobideh, joojeh, saffron rice and traditional slow-cooked dishes. Come for a favourite. Discover something new.
Turkish Favourites. Persian Traditions.
At Sumac & Saffron, Turkish and Persian cuisines share one table while keeping their own proud identities. From freshly prepared meze and meats cooked over charcoal to aromatic rice dishes, fragrant herbs and slow-cooked stews, our menu celebrates the flavours and traditions of both cultures. This is not fusion. Each cuisine is prepared and presented in its own right, giving you the freedom to return to the dishes you already love or experience something completely new.
From The Charcoal Grill
Fire is at the heart of our kitchen. Our charcoal grill brings out the unmistakable flavour of Turkish Adana kebab, chicken and lamb shish, Persian koobideh, joojeh and our mixed sharing platters. Prepared with care, cooked over real charcoal and served straight from the grill. All our meat is halal.
Gather, Share and Celebrate
Sumac & Saffron was created for more than an ordinary sit-down meal. Join us for dinner with friends, a relaxed family gathering, drinks at the bar or a special celebration. With generous food, cocktails, mocktails and beer, and warm hospitality, there is always a reason to come together.
