Antepliler

Antepliler does one thing and does it well – baklava. With so many similarly named turkish establishments dotted all over London, don’t get confused. This is the real deal. Their baklava is the best I’ve tasted in London, and I’ve had quite a few of them. Reasonably priced and well-​stocked even in the late evening hours.
They do have a few varities – walnuts, etc. But the best is definitely the pistachio one. I buy it by the kilo for parties, etc. And they’re the first thing to disappear off the table.
Go there. Decide how much you want. Then take twice. Because once you get home and bite into the first one, you’ll immediately regret not having more.

Antepliper is a baklava salon, the only dessert they make and sell is baklava and this they do almost to perfection. The baklava is flaky and with each bit you can taste the honey and pistachio. I often pick up a batch of baklava when I’m having friends over; it makes an ideal after dinner treat, especially when served with mint tea. I have seen other customers in Antepliper eating baklava and sipping mint tea, but the store does not provide a large space for people to sit and eat in the shop. They have one table with two chairs and one coach with a small table, which suggests buy but don’t stay. The owner, who seems to be the only person who works there, is very friendly and quickly makes up your order. Baklava for a few people is about £3 which allows everyone two pieces, it’s so sweet that’s probably all most people can handle.
