EDITOR'S REVIEW
Base Beyoğlu pairs cocktails, wine and local beer with hearty gastropub plates on İmam Adnan Sokak, adapting to different times of day. A wide-ranging menu and seating connected to the street offer common ground for friends with different tastes.
Rock, funk, soul and widely familiar international pop make a relaxed gastropub backdrop by day, gaining rhythm later. Sound levels can change for major televised matches. Instead of regular live concerts there are rock-soul-pop bar playlists; sport screenings and occasional special nights alter that day's music.
Tables spill onto İmam Adnan Sokak, bringing pedestrian life into the venue. Wooden furnishings, exposed brick, stocked liquor shelves, a TV screen and warm low light give the room a classic city-pub feel.
A neighbourhood gastropub matching craft beer, wine and cocktails with fusion food from burgers to sharing plates. Room, counter and outdoor tables suit a quick drink or a long dinner.

Everyday city clothing works near İstiklal: T-shirt, jeans, sweatshirt, comfortable dress or clean sneakers. The food-serving pub is not formal.
Base Beyoğlu appeals to those wanting to listen to live music or DJs in a boutique, intimate atmosphere away from the crowds. Reviews highlight the attentive and polite approach of the owner and staff, as well as the complimentary treats, reasonable prices, and relaxed clientele. The sound quality of the live music, the service, and the venue layout—well-suited for events—are generally well-liked. Techno events also receive positive feedback. There are very few notable complaints, though it was mentioned that restroom cleanliness could be improved. It is a warm, student-friendly alternative with high overall satisfaction for those wishing to chat, listen to music, or host a small gathering without the pressure of constant ordering.

NOTE
Base Beyoğlu is not Yabangee Base, which opened in Cihangir in 2026. The intended gastropub is at İmam Adnan Sokak 11/A. Outdoor tables are exposed to other bars' traffic and cigarette smoke.
GETTING THERE
İmam Adnan Sokak No. 11/A is a side street off the Taksim end of İstiklal Caddesi. From M2 Taksim, emerge at the square and enter İstiklal; it is a short walk.
