27 Leb-i Derya
BAR
OFFLINE MAP GOOGLE MAP
On the top floor of a dishevelled building off İstiklal, Leb-i Derya has wonderful views
across to the Old City and down the Bosphorus, meaning that seats on the small outdoor
terrace or at the bar are highly prized. ( www.lebiderya.com ; 6th fl, Kumbaracı Yokuşu 57, Galata;
4pm-2am Mon-Thu, to 3am Fri, 10am-3am Sat, to 2am Sun;
Karaköy, then funicular to Tünel)
28 Münferit

BAR
When this topic went to print, this upmarket bar-restaurant designed by the Autoban
Design Partnership was the most glamorous destination in town. The bar serves expertly
made cocktails and good wine by the glass. (Yeni Çarşı Caddesi 19, Galatasaray;
Kabataş, then fu-
nicular to Taksim)
29 Leb-i Derya Richmond

This sleek younger sister of perennial favourite Leb-i Derya attracts an older, more
cashed-up crowd. Its decor and views are hard to beat. (

Local Life
Hazzo Pulo Çay Bahçesi
There aren't as many traditional tea houses in Beyoğlu as there are on the Historic Peninsula, so this ramshackle
çay bahçesi (Tarihi Hazzo Pulo Pasaji, off İstiklal Caddesi; 9am-midnight; Karaköy, then funicular to
Tünel) in a picturesque cobbled courtyard off İstiklal Caddesi is a local favourite. Order from the waiter and then
pay at the small cafe near the narrow arcade entrance.
