Amazing location with a beautiful sea view. Watching the ships pass by makes the atmosphere even more enjoyable. The place is perfect for having coffee while enjoying the scenery. Highly recommended!

Have been coming to this place over a few years. Cagin & Ozgur have served me throughout my sitting over the last two days. Lovely service and talk. Felt extremely comfortable & enjoyed the chat with them, especially Cagin. Cocktails were exceptional. The view itself being the main key point. Highly recommended.

Lovely location - conveniently located next to the ferry port (on the left of the photo) with a great view of the Bosphorus. The carrot cake was moist and truly delightful. Very good coffee too. Slightly expensive, but you are paying for the location and atmosphere too.

We stopped by The House Café in Ortaköy for brunch while walking around the area, and it was a great choice. The food was delicious and everything we ordered was very nice. The service was good, but the highlight was definitely the ambiance — the atmosphere is beautiful and relaxing. Ortaköy has always been one of my favorite spots in Istanbul, and this café made the experience even better. It’s a perfect place to stop for brunch, coffee, or just a drink while enjoying the lively surroundings.

Highly recommend this place! Staff were very nice, food was in big portions and delicious, and the view is incredible. The price is relatively reasonable and it’s definitely the beat spot for a sunset dinner.
