This coffee roastery and bar is the epitome of quality + cool. One of the owners, Serkan Ipekli,…read moreis an award winning barista (he recently won best barista in Turkey) and his specialty coffees are simply to die for. Geyik sources high-quality coffee and freshly roasts it on the spot. Before trying Serkan's cappuchino, I never thought I would be able to take coffee without sugar. My first cappuchino at Geyik changed this forever: the quality of the coffee beans plus the skillful roast diminishes the bitterness of the coffee, while Serkan's master touch brings out the natural sugars in the milk. Result: an aromatic cappuchino that absolutely does not require sugar. At night, Geyik turns into a chic cocktail bar. The cocktails here are not run-of-the-mill rail drinks found in most Istanbul bars. These are complex and thoughtful concoctions, including a cocktail that is set on fire before it is delivered to your table (and this is not just a gimmick, the taste fully matches the performance factor). Geyik has a hip and bohemian factor, with an element of sophistication. In addition, the friendly owners and staff immediately make you feel like home. Jazz performances are featured some nights to add to the ambiance. Highly recommended as a day time coffee stop or your night time destination.

It attracts a nice looking mixed crowd and is LGBTQ+ friendly; they have a discrete rainbow flag inside. This place does not get as crazy crowded as some of its neighbors and I really like the groovy interior decor with interesting artwork and a velvet couch. The people who work here are all cute, nice and cool. There are fun little booths and stools placed in nooks in places you can sit outside, a terrace raised up over the street where you can talk with a friend and see all the people walking by or you can sit on a cozy couch inside. The lighting is dim and makes everyone look really great. They make fantastic cocktails and have good local beer I highly recommend it.

Friendly customer service and drinks came fairly quick, though unfortunately today the electricity went out but it still worked out. I wanted to stay and try many more drinks but 6 was good for now we still need to eat dinner lol.. Picklerock with baby corn- it is pickley with a hint of spice it's pretty good and different. It works together with the corn. If you like pickles and spice this is the drink for you. Plan direct - smooth easy to drink and you can taste the honey. It comes with yogurt ice cream just a little sweet but not to much it's good. All good in the hood- very good easy to drink the burning cinnamon adds a cute touch you just dip it in and stir it to add that hint of cinnamon flavor but not overpowering at all. Big in Japan- you taste the seaweed it comes with the ginger and you know it's kinda like eating sushi in a drink if you take a nibble on the ginger while taking a sip. It really goes together it is unique and different. It sounds odd but it's pretty cool Holy smoke- this one was ok it's good but it is sour d Mountain Sip- easy to drink a little sweet but good

The ambiance here is beautiful - hidden in a small alley on a road beside the Galata Tower, there are lights and music that fill up the narrow path here. Outside seating is super quaint, and the inside of the restaurant is nice too, decorated in a very traditional way. We started off with a shepherds salad because I was in desperate need of fibre after two days of straight protein and carbs . It was a simple Mediterranean style salad, with tomato, onions, cucumbers, and parsley. We then shared a chicken shish and, heavily influenced by the meal we had at Antiochia the day prior, a kebab durum. The durum was good - crispy and meaty - but I think we had the best at Antiochia. It lacked a bit of juice. The chicken shish was delicious though; it was tender, moist, and flavourful. The real star, however, was the kunefe. This dessert was by far the best of its kind we've had in Istanbul! It wasn't too sweet, the inside was creamy (and more mild than some other variations we tried), but it was the clotted cream on top and the pistachio crumble that elevated this to another level. The cream made the dish super buttery and fragrant, adding complexity. Would definitely come again just for the kunefe!
