Yamabahçe is a pide restaurant on the corner of James Street and St Christopher’s Place in Marylebone, a few minutes from Bond Street station. It was opened in 2017 by restaurateur Alan Yau, with a menu built almost entirely around one thing: pide.
The flatbreads come from a large wood-fired oven at street level, with toppings such as smoked aubergine or rib-eye steak. There is also lahmacun, a cast-iron skillet of spiced roast chicken, sides like cacık and a pomegranate and walnut salad, and Turkish-style eggs in the morning.
It suits a casual lunch while shopping on Oxford Street, or breakfast at an outdoor table.

Atmosphere and good to know
There are plenty of outdoor tables, with a canvas cover and heaters added when it turns chilly. Inside, the street level is small and dominated by the wood oven, with more seating in the basement; in all there are around 47 covers indoors and 70 outside.
It runs all day from breakfast. Halal status isn’t stated, and we haven’t confirmed the drinks list. Vegetarians have the aubergine pide and sides to choose from.
