EDITOR'S REVIEW

Get to know the venue before you go

A longstanding Cihangir neighborhood place combining garden, cafe, restaurant and bar. Its bohemian atmosphere serves coffee, food and drinks at different times of day and reflects the area's regulars culture.

Music & programme

An eclectic background supports conversation on regular days. Wednesday's Analog Night centers on vinyl selections; check current announcements for whether it is running and for the time.

Atmosphere

A green garden, older Cihangir details and relaxed tables make it quiet by day and livelier, yet still intimate, in the evening. The cafe gradually takes on a bar atmosphere.

Concept

A relaxed neighborhood venue with garden seating, an all day kitchen and bar, and occasional vinyl nights. Its long hours support different ways to use the space.

Guest profile

Dress code

Customer Review Summary

Kaktüs Cihangir serves as a hearty breakfast spot in the morning and transforms into a relaxed bar offering beer and cocktails later in the day. It generates high customer satisfaction thanks to its warm breakfast options—such as avocado toast with eggs—careful presentation, friendly staff, and cozy décor. However, there are a few notable negative experiences, including serious complaints regarding cleanliness, being moved to an outdoor table when using a student discount, and being charged a much higher-than-expected bill without receiving a receipt. The cold items in the English breakfast have also drawn criticism. Verifying the bill and table arrangements beforehand is a sufficient precaution.
