Barmeze
We are an independent family run restaurant. Fouad has run Bar Meze since 2007 and he is passionate about providing good quality food and customer service. Fouad knows his customers by name and welcomes one and all. We serve the native cuisine of Cyprus - the historic meeting place of Europe and Asia.

Our dishes have Greek, Ottoman and Arabic influences resulting in a unique blend. Our company motto "Eat, Drink, Share" pays reference to the Eastern Mediterranean way of eating that is both healthy and fun. There are no set starters or main courses, and you can order a snack or a main meal simply by varying the number of dishes chosen.

Haven't been able to visit for three years but coming back was amazing. Same owner and chef and the food and hospitality was as I remember it.
Highly recommend this restaurant.

The food was ok, strange flavours and not everything needs herbs, including chips?
The service wasn’t great, then had the cheek to add 20% service charge?? Seemed like they couldn’t be bothered?? Even if the service was great and the food was even ok I still would have still paid the service. I paid it anyway…
The restaurant had 2 other tables, the other table didn’t touch their food and the other table has lots of children throwing things and making ALOT of noise. Nothing was done to at least ask the table to settle down. Handed a dirty menu wasn’t a great first impression eitherâ€

Had our Xmas meal there. It was the best meal and night in a long time. The food was exceptional and the service the same. Highly recommend it for a group function or a family.

Just had a most successful lunchtime party to celebrate my special birthday with 40 people. Bar Meze could not have been more helpful and arranged it all in such a way that everyone felt welcomed and comfortable. The meze menu was outstanding with delicious well, prepared dishes to suit all tastes, including those with dietary constraints. Many guests commented on the professionalism and care shown by the staff as well as the friendly & relaxed ambience. Would thoroughly recommend it.

Beautiful Greek food: succulent swordfish, perfect prawns, the meat is high quality and done perfectly. Ordered far too much but still we ate nearly everything! Nimatt is an artist.
Great atmosphere and quick service even at busy times. This is probably the best restaurant in St. Albans.

I was looking for a place to eat before going to a comedy gig at St Albans arena. I came across this place and had a look at the reviews on here and it seemed good so decided to try it out. Unfortunately, service was slow with food taking ages to come out, the price for the food was very expensive for what it was and the portion sizes were very small. The food itself was very average tasting and was nothing special. I ordered the chicken tikka and I assumed due to its price, it would come with chips. This was not the case and the chips had to be ordered separately.

I'd give this place 6 stars if I could.
The owner is there 100% of the time, and he always seems to remember you. It's just a great neighbourhood restaurant, you always feel like a regular and you're welcomed so warmly by all the staff.
Get anything from the grill and you won't be disappointed.
We started getting the house special selection kind of thing as a takeaway and it is by far, really far, the best takeaway we've ever had.

Great restaurant lovely genuinely warm welcome from the owner. Quality ingredients clearly cooked with love and pride. I think this will definitely be a regular restaurant for my lunch meetings.
Also really easy to order #healthyyum and I love the flavours from the charcoal grill, makes me remember what summer is like.
