London's first authentic Antep baklavacı since 1993, Murat Üstünsürmeli's Grand Parade pastry house
Ahmet Murat Üstünsürmeli is the man credited with bringing proper Antep-style baklava to London, opened the original Grand Parade shop in 1993 and grew the Antepliler group across four neighbouring units: the baklava shop, a sit-down restaurant, a künefe café and a lahmacun-and-pide counter. The pistachio fıstıklı baklava is the order, buttery yufka, syrup-restrained, pistachios from Antep itself. Regulars knows this address from family in London, the standard against which every other London baklava fails. Best Turkish patisserie outside Türkiye on this stretch, full stop.
Order the fıstıklı baklava and the cevizli kadayıf by weight, not by piece, half a kilo travels home. The künefe café two doors down does a single-portion künefe to order; the eight-minute wait is non-negotiable. Cash and card; closed only on Bayram first day.
