🔸 Pavlonya Meyhanesi is in the heart of Kadıköy and offers an extensive list of traditional Turkish meze. Its multi-storey interior and small pavement terrace make it a great place to watch the street while sipping rakı.
🔸 Maşuk Devr-i Meyhane is in the Osmanağa neighbourhood, a little away from the main bar street. High-quality meze, a good rakı selection and varied seating (indoors, pavement and garden) are its highlights. The indoor hall shows big football matches, while the back garden with classical Turkish music has a special atmosphere.
🔸 Ala Kadıköy Meyhane is a multi-storey venue with great city views. Delicious, generous meze and a rooftop overlooking Kadıköy’s rooftops and the Sea of Marmara in the distance make it an attractive choice.
🔸 Piraye Taş Plak Meyhanesi has a warm, cosy atmosphere that feels more like a party in an old house. It is known for fresh seafood starters, with classical Turkish music playing in the background without drowning out friendly conversation.
🔸 Agapia Mezze & Meyhane is a great option in central Kadıköy, with a wide range of rakı and indoor and outdoor seating, including a pleasant pavement terrace.
