Village Coffee + Eatery — Restaurant in Kadıköy

This was my first vegan kahvalti/Turkish breakfast since I came and stayed in Istanbul for 3 weeks a few months ago! Most places that offer vegan kahvalti required minimum two people. Unfortunately, for me, it's hard to find someone that would have the right schedule/time and willing to have a vegan breakfast with me. Finding out about this place that catered to "solo diners" such as me was a treat!

The kahvalti consists of a vegan cheese platter, breakfast salad, pepper and tomato paste (muhammara), olives, jam, sun dried tomatoes with thyme and olive oil, sugar free peanut butter, walnut, 2 black tea and bread. At first glance, this may not seem that much but I did became very full until the evening. Everything tasted good. Most of the time, I’m not the biggest fan of vegan cheese, and I wasn’t fond of this one too. It’s not bad, just tasted like every generic vegan cheese lacking tangy flavours and coconut oil taste.

I decided to order an extra hot drink - pumpkin spiced latte with oat milk, which wasn't necessary as I already had two cups of tea. I came to work from this coffee shop again a few days later and had the matcha latte with oat milk.

Great place to work remotely from. Friendly staff. Menu is...

In my opinion, one of the best cafes in Kadikoy area or one of the most relaxing cafes in Istanbul Without a doubt, order croissants with peace of mind, definitely definitely 😅 What can be better than fresh croissants that are still hot, can be next to an attractive breakfast plate? Menemen with feta cheese and fresh vegetables was also great! If you love cats like us, the outdoor space is great, and if you are afraid, the friendly staff of the cafe will take care of everything and bring water spray for your comfort. I recommend this cafe to you a thousand times Hoping to...

We had breakfast at this restaurant and it was a very good experience overall. The food was delicious, the prices were fair, the staff were friendly (and spoke English), and the place was clean including the restrooms.

What impressed me the most was the honesty of the staff. I accidentally forgot my watch at the restaurant and only realized hours later. When I returned, even though the shift had already changed, the staff had kept my watch safe and returned it to me without any issues.

I truly appreciate their kindness and integrity. Highly...
