Tower Pub & Bar

Classic rock, pop and old school hits from the 1960s through the 1980s define the daily playlist, sometimes joined by Turkish songs or newer rhythms on DJ nights. Guest bartender evenings, cocktail workshops, pub crawls and occasional DJs are separately scheduled.

Colorful wall details, old music posters, warm yellow light, small tables and a bottle lined bar give the room personality. Darts in the back room add a playful corner; seats by the door are steps from the stone mass of Galata Tower.

An independent Galata bar joining old Pera character to English pub comfort, craft beer, personal cocktail service and international visitors. Workshops, guest bartenders and pub crawls add to its sociable side.

Couples seeking cocktails in Galata, small groups, solo travelers stopping at the bar and local or international visitors fond of classic bar music.

Casual clothes are fine straight after a Galata walk: jeans, T shirt, sneakers, travel clothes or a simple evening outfit. There is no formal door dress policy.

Tower Pub and Bar is a small, intimate spot near the Galata Tower that embodies the traditional pub spirit.

Patrons frequently praise the balance of flavor and alcohol in the cocktails and appreciate the beer selection. Staff members are described as warm, witty, and helpful in almost every review; service is fast, and prices are generally considered reasonable for the location.
