Külhane Ocakbaşı
Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers to the questions we hear most about reservations, hours, alcohol service, and getting here.
Is there parking?
Yes, parking is available. The Aksu location is on the airport area's main road and has its own parking area; arriving by car is the easiest way to get there.
Do you accept meal cards? (Multinet, Sodexo, Ticket)
No, meal cards aren't accepted. You can pay by cash or bank/credit card.
Do I need a reservation?
Not required, but we recommend it for weekend evenings and parties of more than four. Reservations are made by WhatsApp or phone — just send the date, time, party size, and which location. Each branch has its own number: Aksu 0546 973 47 88, Muratpaşa 0532 614 62 70.
What time do you open? Is there a lunch service?
Külhane is an evening restaurant — there's no lunch service. Aksu is open 4pm to 2am, Muratpaşa 4pm to 3am. Both locations are open Tuesday to Sunday and closed on Mondays.
Do you serve alcohol?
Yes, both locations serve alcohol. We don't list drink prices on the site — prices in Turkey change often enough that a published list would go stale quickly, so we give you the current price at the table.
Do you offer car-side service?
Yes, at the Aksu location — order and get served without leaving your car. Contactless delivery to your vehicle is available too.
How do I get there from Antalya Airport?
The Aksu location is in Güzelyurt, just behind the IC Airport Hotel — about 800 metres from the hotel. A short taxi or transfer is all you need if you're staying near the airport. Address: Güzelyurt, 26223 Cadde No 4/1, 07112 Aksu / Antalya.
Which location do the menu prices belong to?
The published menu and prices on the site belong to the Aksu location (Külhane Ocakbaşı), valid as of 13 August 2026. Muratpaşa (Külhane Restaurant) runs a different menu and a different operating model; ask on-site for their current menu.
Can I book for a large group or a celebration?
Yes. If you're planning a birthday, celebration, or group dinner, please message or call ahead. Because the grill works to order, giving us advance notice for a large table noticeably speeds up service.
What times are busiest?
The grill is lit at opening; early hours (4-7pm) are calmer, and the room fills up later in the night. Come early for a quieter table, later for a livelier evening. Weekend evenings are the busiest overall.
What is ocakbaşı, and how is it different from a barbecue?
Ocakbaşı is a service format where meat is cooked to order, in full view of guests, over a coal fire built into the dining room. Unlike a barbecue, where food is often cooked in batches, each piece here is grilled individually under a cook's direct control. For the full explanation, see our guide.
