Odal Espresso

About this place

Bringing a continental twist to the heart of Whitehaven, Odal Espresso is a stylish new café and bistro located in the town’s marketplace. Owned by Dondu Al, whose husband Ozkan runs the Charcoal Grill opposite, the venue offers a unique fusion of Turkish, French, and British café culture rarely seen in West Cumbria.

The menu is as exciting as it is varied, with highlights including wagyu, kangaroo, and zebra burgers, authentic Turkish coffee, flavoured teas, and even the traditional Turkish spirit raki. There’s also a carefully selected range of wines to enjoy in a relaxed, city‑style setting.

For those with a sweet tooth, Odal Espresso boasts fifteen flavours of baklava supplied by a renowned London bakery, alongside indulgent Dubai chocolate, ice cream, and a tempting variety of cakes and desserts. Breakfast lovers can choose from Turkish, English, and French options, with more dishes and sandwiches set to be added as the menu evolves.

Whether you’re stopping for coffee, exploring exotic flavours, or treating yourself to a decadent dessert, Odal Espresso offers a fresh, cosmopolitan dining experience right in the centre of Whitehaven.
