We eat there a lot. Good value. Our children love it. The mixed meze (they do a veggy one too) at 7.50 to serve two people is very good and we also like the borek, the grilled halloumi. I'm a veggy but Mr F enjoys the mixed grill thingy.


Puddings are disappointing though and it's something like ?3.50 for two little pastries!

I do like it..



..& the meat is lean & tender. Cooked over charcoal, tastes authentic. As for the pitta, it lets it down, very average, try harder

However, the Humous is bland, cardboardy & flavourless. It lacks texture, plus they should make it them selves as a house special, even charge a premium & I'd happily pay for it but don't fob me off with that mush & expect a smile

The "Taramosalata" is on the same parallel. It's cheap bucket bought fatty gloop, over salted, even gummy. Really it's an insult to it's roots & better quality is easily available

Lastly, the fat in the chip fryers is bitter & cheap, change it to clean rapeseed oil & the whole taste will improve ( not to mention my arteries )

In short.....


"Hisar" is good but could easily be soooo much better.


It's tough-love as I do love you. I just don't like some of the things you do

* someone work out the mean average, I can't as I'm fanning myself with a polystyrene container lid *

My and my partner went there a few weeks ago. It was really nice. The staff are polite. I am a massive halloumi fan, and there's was spot on. The mixed grills could feed two in my experience. Worth the money I believe... I'd advise anyone to at least try it. I know alot of people who use Hisar regularly and never have a bad word to say.

Have never had a bad meal at the Hisar, and the service is good too.


They do a set meal - you can choose meat, fish or veggy based - which is extraordinarily good value, large range of cold starters, hot starters, main dishes ..... we were full after the cold starters but if I remember right they gave us doggy bags :))

    • When I did a Diploma in Community Studies at Birkbeck College many many moons ago, community was defined a group with common/similar beliefs , people living within a defined geographical area,.
    • At it's peak I recall 16 Furkin pubs, all brewing their own.    The first pub was the Goose, followed by the Ferret, the wonderful Pheonix, Fox and one other, not necessarily in that order, when I discovered them. I did all 16 on public transport in one day with a group many years ago, if Guinness had a record this would be one, as everyone else would hire a minibus. Reverting to Wiki, it maxed out with 19 home brew pubs, and many more not brewing before the end: chain was established in 1979 by David Bruce as Bruce's Brewery, the Firkin Brewery grew as a chain of mostly brewpubs offering cask ale. It was acquired by Midsummer Leisure in 1988, Stakis Leisure in 1990 and then by Allied Domecq in 1991; by 1995 the chain had 44 pubs, 19 of which brewed beer on site.[1] In 1999, Punch Taverns bought the entire chain and the rights to the Firkin brand,[2] and then sold 110 of the pubs to Bass, leaving 60 Firkin pubs under Punch ownership.[3] The brewery side of the chain was wound up, and in March 2001 Punch announced that the Firkin brand was to be discontinued.[4] 
    • Hello! I’m looking to collect some pallets and MDF boards from anyone in the area who has some and no longer needs them?   It would also be a huge bonus if anyone has a PA sound system I could rent/borrow/buy off them.   Thank you in advance!
    • That was the best "pound shop", a great selection of products, sadly it and the chain went to the wall as they say.
