I decided to visit after reading a number of users' feedback and my need to sit at a quite coffee shop to read and have a decent cup of coffew. Let me verify and falsify some: ✔✔ The place is cozy and is great to come with a friend to study/do work. The filter coffee is as great as the desert. Go for the cherry tart is its available. It's heavenly. ❌❌ If you are looking for a place to read I wouldn't recommend it, not only because it's crowded but also because the music tends to get loud. It is hard to find a table to sit by yourself. I was put on a table with 5 other people who were talking while studying/ doing homework. True that the number it waiters is not enough for a two-story place. The service was somehow slow.

It is a cute place. Mostly used by German language talking groups and actual German people living in İstanbul. Also you might stumble upon to students from Turkish-German University. Their german cake is really good and coffee pretty decent. I did not really enjoy the vegan cake I had but I'm not a vegan so that might be the reason why. The teas are pretty nice and from one order you get 1.5 cups. They also serve food, wine, beer and coctails as well as the soft drinks. I personally enjoy the chill rustic vintage vibe it has and the staff is really kind.

Wonderful interiors and great timber decoration for two-story cozy and authentic cafe. However, the desserts were not delicious. We had Bienenstich, and Lotus cheesecake. The German cake was a mediocre one, not the best I’ve had. The lotus cheese cake’s cheese was not good. It was actually made of heavy cream. Coffees were okay. The service was a little bit slow. It’s a packed spot and not enough waiters. But for a bookstore, it’s unique. The overall score 3.8/5 for a Cefe.

Charming little coffee spot on the main shopping street. The coffee shop is combined with a little bookstore, adding to the ambience. The only con is that the coffee seems pretty expensive. A flat white cost me 60 TL. Edit: I had originally given this place four stars, because the coffee is a little bit expensive. However, I had not yet seen the full interior. The interior is lovely! What a comfortable and nice spot to spend some time.

Wonderful place to sit down with your laptop and spent some time with your work. Good coffee, desserts, sandwiches. A lot of place to sit but sometimes it is crowded. Have student discounts. A lot of outlets to plug in, amazing interior, two floors and one upper isolated one. Great and reasonable prices. About 200 TL for several drinks and sandwich. Everybody is working around. Working atmosphere
