Settle into Baba, a warm, rustic-chic spot where Mediterranean plates meet the charcoal grill. Share roasted garlic and grilled dishes with a cocktail in a handsome historic building.
Full description
Baba combines a Mediterranean menu with charcoal grill dishes and cocktails in a warm, rustic-chic room inside a historic building. Reviewers praise the atmosphere and the service, with one calling the roasted garlic a love-at-first-bite moment, though another found some shared plates, such as the hummus, hit and miss.
Its long hours, from midday to midnight or beyond on weekends, make it flexible for a late lunch, an early dinner or a drink later on. No booking is required, and the sharing format suits couples and small groups wanting a relaxed, good-looking setting.
