Stone Room Breakfast Hall
Located in the historical texture of Burdur city center, Stone Room Gastronomy Kitchen offers a unique food and beverage experience in the Stone Room Mansion, which dazzles with its authentic Ottoman civil architecture from the 17th century. This historic mansion, built by Emin Bey, one of the leaders of the Kınalı Tribe, underwent a comprehensive restoration process initiated by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism in 1978 and completed in 1988. Transferred to Burdur Mehmet Akif Ersoy University in 2013, the Stone Room Mansion now operates publicly within the Lavender Hill Hotel. Our restaurant offers the finest examples of local flavors to its guests with its rich menu served at every meal. Special breakfasts and dining events organized at the Stone Room Gastronomy Kitchen create unforgettable moments in its artistic atmosphere adorned with authentic embroideries. Stone Room, an ideal stop for anyone who wants to discover the local tastes of Burdur and spend time in a historical venue, offers a unique experience by blending the traditional and the modern.
Book & Coffee Cafeteria
Located in the heart of the campus, Book & Coffee takes its name from its rich library containing works of many famous local and foreign authors and its delicious coffee presentations, making it an indispensable meeting point for MAKÜ members. With its rich variety of coffees and menus, it offers our students and staff an enjoyable break accompanied by the campus view.
On the lower floor of the cafeteria, there are practical kitchen lessons conducted by the students of the Tourism Management and Hotel Management School and Burdur Food Agriculture and Livestock Vocational School Culinary Program in the Gastronomy and Culinary Arts Practice Kitchen. These lessons bring the flavors prepared by students inspired by local and world cuisines to the menu of Book & Coffee on certain days of the week. These special dishes prepared by the students are evaluated by customers through a software, directly affecting the students' practice grades. Book & Coffee offers its visitors both the pleasure of knowledge and taste with its delicious coffees and menu enriched with student works. We invite everyone to experience this unique blend of education and gastronomy.
