EDITOR'S REVIEW
Divan Pub Akaretler is regarded as a stylish gastropub combining Divan's service standards with Akaretler's lively surroundings. Polite staff, a strong bar and food and drink quality stand out; although prices are in the upper range, professional service is said to offset them.
WHO IT SUITS
For people who want a cocktail or beer after work, a romantic, quiet dinner date or a conversation-led gathering with friends. Gastronomy enthusiasts keen to try well-prepared dishes and signature cocktails may also enjoy it.
HIGHLIGHTS
The professional, attentive and polite approach of the service and bar staff is among its most praised qualities. Successful signature cocktails and its easy-to-reach historic location in central Akaretler also stand out.
NOTE
It serves guests every day from 11:30–00:00. Prices are above the area average because of its upper-tier gastropub identity and brand value.
GETTING THERE
It is at Şair Nedim Caddesi No:21/A in Vişnezade Mahallesi, within the Akaretler row-house district. It is about a 10–15-minute uphill walk from the Beşiktaş ferry piers and square.
