I've been a regular at this cosy cafe in Kadıköy for eight years. It's the kind of place where you instantly feel comfortable, thanks to Gõksel's warm welcome and the cafe's inviting atmosphere. His filter coffee is exceptional, and I always look forward to trying his latest desserts. The movie pictures and the 80s/90s music create a really unique and enjoyable experience.

Such a cute little cafe in the neighborhood! Had to stop by - was so intrigued by the decor. The owner seems to be a big cinephile - the cafe is full of movie paraphernalia and technological trinkets of the past including old sewing machine desks as tables, it feels like a time capsule. He also has his own photography displayed in the back - so beautiful. I loved the whimsy!! While he did not speak English, he put in the effort to write out what he wanted to share in Turkish on google translate, providing information and details that were so interesting! For example, he described the Turkish tradition of using a cologne to cleanse your hands before eating and drinking, then shared his fragrance! It was so cool to experience.

Awesome little cafe with a retro vibe and great beverages. Focuses on nostalgic decor and music from the 70s, 80s, 90s. Owner was very welcoming and offered me some traditional scented hand cleanser from a special region of Turkey according to local custom. Highly recommend checking out this spot.
