Arabic Flavour

Walk into Arabic Flavour and you're immediately hit with the smell of cumin and za'atar – the kind of aroma that tells you someone's actually cooking here, not just reheating. You'll find yourself in a straightforward space on Northgate Street where the focus is entirely on what's coming out of the kitchen. The menu reads like a proper tour through Levantine and broader Mediterranean cooking: hummus that's silky rather than gluey, shawarma that's been properly spiced, and kebabs that don't skimp on the meat. It's the sort of place where locals know the owner cares about getting flavours right, and that shows in everything from the fresh herbs to the way they'll adjust dishes to what you actually want.
