About Çınaraltı Mangalbaşı Çayyolu

Çınaraltı Mangalbaşı Çayyolu is the Çayyolu branch of a mangalbaşı (grill-at-the-table) restaurant brand that, according to its own website, opened in Bostancı, Istanbul in 1998 and now has branches in Istanbul, Ankara and Mersin. The brand lists two Ankara branches: this one on Park Caddesi in the Prof. Dr. Ahmet Taner Kışlalı neighbourhood of Çayyolu, and another in İncek. The concept is cook-it-yourself grilling. Guests pick cuts at the restaurant's own meat counter, where the brand says fresh cuts arrive every morning, and cook them over a hazelnut-shell fire at the table. The website describes under-table ventilation and smart hood systems meant to keep smoke and heavy smells away from diners, and says the brand uses serving robots to bring orders to the table. Alongside the grill, the kitchen offers zırh kebabs, daily mezes and desserts. The brand's timeline mentions developing its own meat-processing methods in 2005 and renovating its branches in 2021. Practical notes: the website lists the Çayyolu branch phone as 0532 113 39 06 and gives its hours as 11:00 to 00:30. Reservations are taken through the WhatsApp reservation line linked on the website.
