Arabica celebrates the vibrant flavours of the Eastern Mediterranean – whisking you on a culinary journey through the fertile valleys, mountain villages, coastal towns, and vibrant cities of Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and Turkey.

Starting from a modest trestle table in London’s Borough Market to a growing network of restaurants and speciality products, the Arabica brand has steadfastly championed naturally healthy food and responsibly sourced ingredients. 

Founder and author James Walters draws inspiration from his extensive travels across the Eastern Mediterranean to create a cookbook brimming with colourful meze and small plates from of one of the world’s most exciting food cultures. He shares simple cooking techniques and ingredient tips that elevate dishes from ordinary to authentic, from satisfying to sublime.

So, gather your friends and family to enjoy favourites like Grilled halloumi with black honey, Spinach & feta gül böreği, Chicken & pistachio shish, Baked chermoula cod with sweet potato, Lebanese meatballs, Lamb with pea tahini and Tomatoes, Peaches, Basil & Za’atar. Treat yourself to Turkish-style künefe, Chocolate halva mousse with sesame brittle, and cool off with cocktails and sodas, such as the Pomegranate margarita and Batroun lemonade.

James Walters, a self-taught chef and the visionary behind the Arabica Group, began this culinary journey from an 8ft Borough Market stall, swiftly earning a loyal following. Today, Arabica supplies fresh meze, spices, baklava, and specialty ingredients to a diverse range of food sectors, from quaint delis to prestigious hotels. Building on the success of his market ventures, James opened Arabica Bar & Kitchen in Borough Market in 2014, followed by Arabica Kings Cross in 2019.
