Babasheesh, located at Pier, 5 Dock Head Rd in Chatham, offers a delightful culinary journey into Turkish cuisine. From the moment you step inside, the warm hospitality creates an inviting atmosphere that feels like home. Diners rave about the excellent service, with staff members like Ramz ensuring that every need is met, even going the extra mile to enhance the dining experience with thoughtful touches, such as lighting candles to set a romantic mood.

Lovely meal which consisted of mixed shish chicken and lamb. Very feeling and worth the money. The meat was soft and tender. Ramz served us and made sure we had everything we needed as well as lighting the candle on the table for a beautiful atmosphere. He was polite and professional. Will definitely return.

Delicious food and very friendly service. We had the mixed grill platter for 4 people which seems expensive at 100 but it includes 2 types of rice and salad, we ended up taking lots of meat home. Lovely waitresses and great choice of cocktails

Lovely restaurant, we had a family meal to celebrate a birthday. It was during Ramadan so we booked the table for iftar time. The food came quickly enough, we didn’t have to wait too long. All the food was hot, freshly made and tasted great. Very nice staff, friendly and they made an effort to engage. We do go here a lot, always a treat. Highly recommended

Beautiful setting at Chatham dockyard. Nice and cosy, with friendly staff. The food very tasty and portion size are a bit of a challenge for just one person will definitely visit again and give it a go if you're near by
