Küfelik Pub & Bistro

Blues, soul and soft rock set the tone. Vocals and instruments take the foreground on live evenings, while familiar international songs keep daily playlists conversation-friendly. Live blues, soul and acoustic acts appear on selected nights; at other times the bar plays recorded selections.

Dark wooden tables, wall shelves, warm yellow light and high seating near the bar give it a classic bistro look. Street-facing tables open onto Yeniköy's foot traffic; indoors, evening stage arrangements make the room more compact and lively.

A neighbourhood pub combining international bistro dishes, beer and cocktails with occasional live blues and soul. Visits can range from breakfast and lunch to a night out.

Regulars from Yeniköy and İstinye, couples seeking a quieter drink along the Bosphorus, blues listeners, daytime bistro guests and small groups of friends.

Relaxed coastal smart-casual clothes fit: linen, a T-shirt and trainers by day; jeans, a shirt or a simple dress in the evening.

Küfelik Pub & Bistro in Yeniköy is a popular spot for drinks and conversation, thanks to its small balcony, relaxed street atmosphere, and friendly staff. Many reviews praise the cocktails, cold beer, burgers, pasta, pizza, and soufflés, and customers appreciate the team's help with drink selections.

Dissatisfaction has also been expressed regarding service charges and communication about closing times. The overall experience leans positive, but it is advisable to verify current prices before ordering.
