A really cute cafe just off a happening street. The hibiscus lemonade was delicious and the cheesecake was definitely a highlight. Perfect brunch cafe to take a break on a hot day

Their cookies are really special. They start to bake cookies as soon as we place an order. They are hot, soft and delicious. If you visit here, I strongly recommend ordering cookies.

Very cute little cafe off a side street on Asian side of Istanbul. We had a couple of drinks and some snacks (toasted sandwich, cheesecake, and cookie), and all were sublime. We were not expecting these all to taste so good. It's a small-ish cafe, but with enough seating. It has a peaceful calm atmosphere and really nice decor (plenty of books on bookshelves around the walls in the cafe). Our server was also very friendly and checked to see if we were happy with our food. Overall, a great place to stop for a quick drink/snack!
