Tarihi Çınaraltı
Istanbul
Avis
On weekends it gets crowded and you have to wait for a table by the sea or any table at all. You can bring your own food, but drinks are not allowed. The place is beautiful and the staff are friendly.
A normal place but with a cool view. They also allow you to bring your own food but you need to buy the beverages from the cafe. Spacious and fast service.
We visited to pay homage to the legendary TV series “Süper Baba”, but it was very disappointing. - Service is not organised. - You have to pay for using restrooms which are in terrible condition. See pictures. - the indoor seating area smelled like a sewer. I think this place can be wonderful if maintained and run properly 😉 Until then, we won’t be coming back.
We brought some of our own breakfast and also ordered a few things from the cafe. Sitting right by the sea with that beautiful Bosphorus view made it such a perfect morning. The atmosphere was relaxed and local, and everything just tasted better with that view.
