WHO IT SUITS

Is this venue right for you?

It suits those wanting drinks while watching the market, snacks shared with friends, and time amid street life. Guests wanting quiet work should account for pedestrian activity reaching the tables.

HIGHLIGHTS

Highlights

English-pub-inspired decor, a central address, and conversation-friendly music are defining features. Promotional beer and cocktails can lighten the bill; a sincere welcome from staff strengthens ties with regulars.

NOTE

Before your visit

Open daily from 10:00 to 02:00. At outdoor tables, musicians and street vendors add their voices to the pedestrian crowd. Conditions may differ between the smoke-free upstairs section and other areas, so smoke-sensitive guests should discuss seating at the start.

GETTING THERE

Getting to the venue

Güneşlibahçe Sokak No:45 is a 3–4-minute walk from Bahariye and the Bull Statue, or 5–6 from Kadıköy ferry piers and metro. Transfers from Marmaray to Kadıköy connections can be followed by walking into the pedestrianized market.
