EDITOR'S REVIEW
Railway Pub is regarded as a regulars' pub in Kadıköy, with three airy floors, reasonable value and attentive staff. Its attention to guests' comfort and to preventing disruptive behaviour is also described as a positive feature.
WHO IT SUITS
For adults wanting to try beer at reasonable prices, talk with friends to alternative rock or work on a computer during the day. It is also said to appeal to groups of women seeking a relaxed, inclusive setting.
HIGHLIGHTS
A door approach aimed at protecting guests' peace, positive views particularly on women's comfort, and problem-solving staff stand out. Relaxed space despite a central corner location, accessible prices and long outdoor tables are further advantages.
NOTE
As beer platters and fries take the place of a broad main-course menu, plan ahead for a filling meal. Upstairs workshops can change the usual flow. Volume can rise on busy weekends; guests seeking fresh air are advised to choose outdoor tables because some reviews mention a smell of cooking oil upstairs.
GETTING THERE
It is at Sakızgülü Sokak No:23 in Caferağa Mahallesi, diagonally across from the former Rexx/Kadıköy Cinema area and at the entrance to Kadife Sokak. It is about a 10-minute walk from the ferry piers, metro and buses; the Bahariye–Kadife route from the Bull Statue is another option. Public transport or walking is recommended because of traffic and difficult parking.
