The Mad Merchants Coffee House

Sooo good! I got a dirty chai and it was perfectly spicy and a hint of sweet. And their Menemen and it revived me. It was so juicy and piping hot and I could probably eat an entire loaf of their homemade sourdough The vibes were good too! The owner works everyday and his cat and dog just chill in the garden and pick who they wanna sit next to. Plus the dog has a purple Mohawk so it really doesn’t get any better than that

I ordered the Turkish delight breakfast, accompanied by Turkish coffee and baklava — all of which were absolutely fresh and bursting with flavor. The staff were exceptionally friendly, with Paula standing out for her politeness and sweetness. It was a delightful experience, and I will most certainly be returning.

I stopped off here for a coffee and couldn't resist trying the sarma (stuffed vine leaves). Delicious food and the three sarmas and the side salad were a good meal. The dip was creamy and tasty. The coffee was good quality, and I ordered a second cup. The garden location is gorgeous and tranquil. An oasis from the bustle of The Barbican. I will be back to try the cake.

This cafe is truly a hidden gem of Turkish delight. Set in Plymouth old town (curiously called New Street) just off from the hustle and bustle of the Barbican, along the old cobbled street, this looks like a traditional English tea house. The interior is quite enchanting - the garden even more so! Sitting in the warm summer sun you could almost believe you were in Turkey itself surrounded by a traditional Turkish decor and Turkish waitresses. We had a fabulous lunch of Mad Merchants Turkish Delight and Sourdough Smash and a pot of Granny's Garden fruit infusion. We also indulged in the marvelous cakes! Such a wonderful alternative and so relaxing. All the staff were so courteous and engaging. We will definately return and recommend to all our friends. Amazingly good!

Incredibly good food and speciality coffees in this cosy and so warm coffee house in the Barbican area, Plymouth. ❤️🥰☕️ On the top of this the people running this place are so kind and friendly. It is definitely a place to go when in Plymouth

Just back from a fantastic visit to this place. A lovely welcome from all the staff we encountered then offered water while we looked at the menu and a bowl of water and a gravy bone biscuit for the dog. We sat in the garden on the beautiful covered seating. A good selection of cakes to choose from. I highly recommend the coffee and walnut cake. So many different teas to choose from and a savoury menu of lunches that start at noon, plus you can get breakfast too. Will definitely go back again to sample more goodies. Really recommend.

We loved the food tasty and good portions. The outside area is nice and Cosy. Thing on the menu, Can be made vegan if asked. Brekky is till 12 after that hour you have other options. Multiple variety of coffees, milkshakes, chocolate and smoothies.

Had a fantastic experience at this coffee house! The food was fresh and delicious, and the Turkish coffee was absolutely amazing. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting. I'll definitely be coming back again soon!
