Abaseen

Abaseen on Stockport Road in Levenshulme is the go-to destination for authentic Afghan and Pakistani cooking in south Manchester. The kitchen specialises in chapli kebabs — the hand-pressed flat beef patties that are a Peshawar street-food staple — alongside lamb and chicken karahi, Lahori chana, and fresh naan baked to order. TripAdvisor gives it a four-star rating, and the Halal Joints platform lists it as one of the top halal destinations in the area. The fully halal menu also covers vegetarian options. Levenshulme's growing independent food scene on Stockport Road makes Abaseen part of a broader dining destination neighbourhood.
