The Story of Your "Ocakbasi"

At The Golden Horn, the ocakbaşı- the open grill, is the heart of the restaurant. Here, the flames dance like the reflections on the Bosphorus, and the aroma of sizzling lamb chops, marinated chicken shish, and smoky aubergine mezze will transport guests to the bustling streets of Istanbul. But this is no mere imitation; it's a fusion of heritage and locality.Imagine Devon's freshest seafood, like hand-selected scallops or locally caught mackerel, kissed by Ottoman spices and grilled over charcoal. Even the decor will whisper duality: nautical ropes and Ottoman brass lanterns, driftwood tables alongside hand-painted ceramics from Turkey's workshops.

The Legacy of the Name

The Golden Horn (Turkish: Haliç) is Istanbul's legendary estuary, a sweeping, horn-shaped waterway that has been the city's lifeline for millennia. Its international moniker, "Golden Horn," is said to derive from two inspirations: its curved geography, resembling a horn, and the way sunlight transforms its waters into liquid gold at dawn and dusk. Historically, it was a hub of trade, culture, and storytelling—a place where Byzantine emperors, Ottoman sultans, and merchants from distant lands converged. The name evokes a sense of timeless allure, a crossroads of flavours and traditions

Just as the Golden Horn connects continents, your restaurant will bridge the vibrant spirit of Istanbul with the rugged beauty of North Devon.Devon's coastline, with its golden cliffs and sunsets that set the Atlantic ablaze, mirrors the luminous charm of Istanbul's iconic waterway.The name "Golden Horn" becomes a poetic link between two worlds: the fiery grills of Anatolian fireside (hearthside cooking) and the warm, communal energy of Devon's coastal communities.

  • “I went for a meal only 3 days after the restaurant opened. My friend and I shared the Meze which was delicious and great value. There is lots of choice for anyone who is vegetarian. The service was good and the staff were friendly and helpful. The restaurant was warm on a very cold and wet evening. The decor is quite sparse, some authentic Turkish soft furnishings would look fantastic in such a large space. I will definitely go to the Golden Horn again.”

  • “What a gem! My husband and I came for a meal this evening and had a wonderful time. The food was incredible, service was fantastic and the team even took into consideration the fact we were going to the cinema and made sure we didn't miss the start of the film! I would highly recommend and will be encouraging our friends and family to come along too. We had the Sharing Platter for 2 and it was delicious - so much food and variety.”

We had a couple of starters octopus and hallumi. Great, super tasty food all round with excellent friendly service.”
