Turkish Restaurant Near Markington

A village on the edge of the Fountains Abbey estate with a cricket club and country hotel. If you live or work in Markington and want Turkish food tonight, Konak Meze is about 7 miles away in Harrogate town centre, at 11-13 Mount Parade.

Seventeen minutes via Wormald Green. We are a family-run Turkish restaurant serving meze made fresh each morning, meat and fish cooked over open charcoal, and Ottoman-inspired dishes in a warm, softly lit room.

Why Markington diners come to Konak Meze

Markington sits north of Harrogate, close to Hob Green and the route to Fountains Abbey. There is plenty of good food nearby, but Turkish cooking over real charcoal is harder to find — which is why guests make the short trip in to Mount Parade.

We opened in February 2013 as Harrogate's first dedicated Turkish restaurant, won Restaurant of the Year 2019 at Harrogate's Hospitality and Tourism Awards, and our team took Waitress of the Year in 2023.

  • Cold meze - dips, stuffed vine leaves and salads to share
  • Hot meze - pastries, grilled halloumi, king prawns and more
  • Charcoal grills - lamb, chicken, fish and mixed grills over open flame
  • Ottoman classics such as Ali Nazik and Arnavut Cigeri
  • Turkish wines, raki, cocktails, Turkish tea and coffee
  • Salads and sandwiches served between 12 noon and 4pm
