Returning for a second lunch at Kiln in Ouseburn proved that their high standards are no fluke, delivering another exceptional midday meal that matched the brilliance of the first. Every dish arrived with the same vibrant, Middle Eastern-inspired flavors, precise seasoning, and careful preparation that made the initial visit so memorable. From the satisfying plates to the charming setting, a second trip confirms this spot as an absolute gem that easily maintains its first class quality.

Our party had various dishes and all were exceptional. Great options for gluten free. Servers were really nice, but it was a busy Friday night so we weren’t checked in on very much. I don’t think this is the fault of the servers, a lot of other patrons seemed to demand attention at all times. Perhaps more servers would be ideal or certain sections being assigned? Overall I’d still absolutely recommend this place - it’s beautiful inside and out, great location, tonnes of options for both food and drinks and exceptional quality. The price was really reasonable too and staff were friendly and really helpful when it came to dietary restrictions. We’ll definitely return based off this visit
