At Brooklyn Cafe & Bar Avcılar, exposed ceiling pipes and brick walls create an industrial setting brightened by neon. Wooden tables sit close to the area with guitars, drums and microphones. The Brooklyn lettering behind the stage appears amid lighting that shifts from red to blue. The interior's liveliness comes from the musicians and the crowd at the tables being side by side.

Brooklyn Cafe & Bar Avcılar is a popular venue known for its affordable prices, energetic live performances, and live music on various days of the week. It is a preferred spot for having fun with family or friends, and the musicians' vocals and repertoires have received praise in many reviews. However, the venue can feel cramped due to low ceilings and tables placed very close together, and it tends to get extremely crowded on weekends. The sound system is loud and distorted, making conversation difficult. Service is often slow; issues such as difficulty getting the staff's attention, delayed orders, and abrasive communication have been mentioned in several reviews. Criticisms also include table layouts that do not offer a view of the stage and the practice of bringing out paid snacks without being asked. It is advisable to inquire about table location and additional charges in advance.
