The Persian

Proper Persian cooking on Princes Avenue that punches well above its weight. Honest food, fair prices, packed most nights.

You'll find yourself on Princes Avenue heading towards the city, spotting The Persian tucked among the local businesses where Hulls real food scene actually happens. Walk in and the smell hits you first—chargrilled meat, saffron, and something properly spiced that makes you forget the rain outside. It's the kind of place where families sit next to couples, where the owner remembers your order, and where £15-20 gets you fed properly without any faffing about. The room's warm and unpretentious, done up in warm tones with proper Persian touches. This isn't Instagram bait; it's just good food cooked right.
