Why students go
A small Turkish shop with products the Bulgarian chains don’t carry — spices, pastes, sweets, teas and ingredients familiar to students from Turkey, the Middle East and South Asia. When you’re missing a taste from home, this is a good place to look.
There’s a second branch on ul. Gena Dimitrova 16.
Halal — verified
Both branches carry halal-certified products:
- Salami and sausages — certain lines, marked with the certificate
- Dairy — cheese and kashkaval among them
We checked this in person in August 2026. It makes this shop the most reliable source of certified halal food in Pleven.
Not everything on the shelves is certified. Look for the halal mark on the packaging, or ask the shopkeeper. And note there is no halal butcher and no halal restaurant in Pleven — the full picture is in our honest note on halal food.
