A well-liked and busy Turkish restaurant and bar in Halifax town centre has shut.

Anatolia, on Horton Street, has closed over the weekend.

Riza Akcadag from Shay Cafe on Hunger Hill, whose family run the restaurant, said the closure had come after issues with their landlord.

He said the business had been a huge success and did have 90 people booked in over the coming weeks.

He added they may look at reopening the restaurant at different premises.

Anatolia opened at the start of 2023, offering a host of fresh, authentic Turkish cuisine cooked by a team of Turkish chefs.

The owners told the Courier they had carried out a thorough revamp of the inside, creating a warm, welcoming and sophisticated eatery for the town.

Shay Cafe is open seven days a week from 7am until 4pm.
