Deco Eatery: Mediterranean and Turkish Dining in Historic Titirangi
Set inside the historic Lopdell House in the heart of Titirangi village, Deco Eatery has been serving Auckland's western fringe since 2015. Opened by Alex Isik and Nigar Ivgen, the eatery is open 365 days a year, from morning through to late, offering fresh, Mediterranean-inspired cuisine with a distinctly Turkish accent.
An All-Day Table
Deco Eatery's menu is built to carry a table from breakfast through to dinner and drinks. Mornings lean into brunch classics reworked with Turkish touches — Shakshuka with Turkish baked eggs, a Chilli Sujuk Scramble built around Turkish beef sausage, and the Breakfast in Turkey, a full spread of scrambled eggs, sujuk, olives, feta, potato rosti and pomegranate mascarpone served with Turkish pide. The Deco Rosti Benedict and Berry Crêpes sit alongside more familiar brunch fare like Avocado Toast and a Buttermilk Fried Chicken Waffle.
Sharing and Mains
Come lunch and dinner, the Mezze Platter sets the tone — hummus, tzatziki, taramasalata, feta, olives, falafel and cauliflower fritters with flatbread and Turkish pide, built for sharing and easily extended with halloumi, chicken or lamb. From there the menu runs through Deco's Wrap, a smoked rice Feast, Harissa Prawns, tempura Fish & Chips, a Classic Cheese Burger and BBQ Pork Ribs, alongside more traditionally Turkish dishes like Lahmacun (a Turkish street pizza topped with spiced mince), stuffed Dolma, and a Fattoush Salad finished with pomegranate dressing.
Drinks and Dessert
The bar programme is a feature in its own right, with a list of named cocktails such as the Waitakere Daiquiri — Kraken rum, Disaronno Amaretto, hibiscus, ginger and cinnamon — alongside Rosebud, Purple Rain, Coco Jombo and the multi-spirit Westy Iced Tea. Non-drinkers are covered with mocktails like Pearl Rose and Pulp Fiction, and the coffee list runs from Turkish Coffee served with Turkish delight through to a Hokey Pokey Latte and Superfood Latte. To finish, the dessert list includes Tiramisu made with Deco's own coffee blend, Baklava with pomegranate mascarpone, and a Burnt Basque Cheesecake.
Function Spaces and Setting
Beyond the day-to-day menu, Deco Eatery offers various function spaces within the venue, catering for events held inside the heritage Lopdell House building. The setting — a well-known piece of Titirangi's architecture — adds to the experience of dining there, whether it's a quick coffee, a full brunch, or an evening of cocktails and shared plates.
With its blend of Mediterranean flavours, Turkish specialities, and a heritage backdrop, Deco Eatery has built a reputation as a go-to all-day spot in Titirangi, summed up in the greeting the owners offer every guest: Afiyet Olsun — enjoy your meal.
