ETHEM TEZÇAKAR KAHVECİ

(Halıcılar Çarşışı Sokak, Grand Bazaar; 8.30am-7pm Mon-Sat; Beyazıt-Kapalı Çarşı) Bekir
Tezçakar's family has been at the helm of this tiny coffee shop for four generations.
Smack bang in the middle of the bazaar's most glamorous retail strip, its traditional brass-
tray tables and wooden stools stand in stark contrast to the Western-style Fes Cafe, oppos-
ite.
ŞARK KAHVESİ

(Oriental Coffeeshop; Yağlıkçılar Caddesi 134, Grand Bazaar; 8.30am-7pm Mon-Sat; Beyazıt-Kap-
alı Çarşı) The Şark's arched ceiling betrays its former existence as part of a bazaar street;
years ago some enterprising kahveci (coffeehouse owner) walled up several sides and
turned it into a cafe. Located on one of the bazaar's major thoroughfares, it's popular with
both stallholders and tourists.
PANDELİ

( www.pandeli.com.tr ; Spice Bazaar, Eminönü; noon-4pm Mon-Sat; Eminönü) Pandeli's three
salons are encrusted with stunning turqoise-coloured İznik tiles and furnished with chan-
deliers and richly upholstered banquettes. Though its location above the main entrance to
the Spice Bazaar makes it a popular lunch spot for tourists (locals wouldn't dream of eat-
ing here), we suggest visiting for a tea or coffee after the main lunch service instead.
KAHVE DÜNYASI

(Nuruosmaniye Caddesi 79; 7.30am-9.30pm) The name means 'Coffee World', and this coffee
chain has the local world at its feet. The secret of its success lies in the huge coffee menu,
reasonable prices, delicious chocolate spoons (yes, you read that correctly), comfortable
seating and free wi-fi. The filter coffee is better than its espresso-based alternatives.
There's another branch ( Kızıhan Sokak 18, Eminönü;
Eminönü) near the Spice Bazaar.
