Çelebioğulları Baklava runs a large Gaziantep salon on Gazi Muhtar Paşa and is one of the few local names making vegan and gluten-free trays.
Tip: The special-diet trays are made in a separate line and usually need ordering ahead.
Worth the queue: Fıstık sarması
Gaziantep Ayıntap Baklava keeps an air-conditioned salon on Gazi Muhtar Paşa Bulvarı where you can sit with tea and a plate rather than a box.
Tip: Sitting in costs no more than taking away. Order a small plate and a glass of tea.

Boztoprak Baklava bakes fresh every day on Atatürk Bulvarı in Gaziantep and ships nationwide, which keeps the trays turning over very quickly.
Tip: The mixed plate is the way to compare şöbiyet, dolama and classic in one order.
Worth the queue: Karışık tabak
Antepsan Baklava sits opposite Sanko University in Gaziantep and also holds the airport counter, so it is the last box before a flight home.
Tip: Open until late evening. Handy if you land after the old-city counters have shut.
Worth the queue: Midye baklava
İmamoğlu Baklava is a small shop on Eski Saray Caddesi in Gaziantep where the trays are cut thin and the prices sit below the more famous names.
Tip: The shop is one small room with no seating. Buy a quarter kilo and eat it walking back.
Worth the queue: Burma kadayıf
Yusuf Ziya makes burma kadayıf and almost nothing else in a Gaziantep han on Suburcu Caddesi, rolling the pastry around crushed Antep pistachio.
