A visit to Arter is not complete without indulging in the culinary offerings at its café, Divan. Here, you can savor a delightful selection of dishes that reflect the rich flavors of Turkish cuisine. One standout is the Cacio e Pepe pasta, a simple yet exquisite dish that embodies the essence of Italian comfort food, made with perfectly al dente pasta and a generous sprinkle of cheese. For those seeking a sweet treat, the café's baklava is a must-try—crispy, flaky layers filled with nuts and drenched in syrup, offering a perfect balance of sweetness and texture.

Situated on Irmak Caddesi, Arter is easily accessible and surrounded by the vibrant energy of Beyoğlu. After exploring the museum, take a leisurely stroll through the nearby streets filled with eclectic shops, art galleries, and cafés.

So I went to this gallery today and truly enjoyed it because the exhibitions are very informative and inspiring. Toilets are very clean, the cafeteria downstairs is fairly priced, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. It has about six or seven floors, but for my trips Time only exhibitions at three floors were available priced at 200 Turkish liras I think this gallery is much more affordable than Istanbul modern art gallery. I wish they turned down the hitting a little bit. The lockers were available and are very easy to use.  during the weekday There were very few people.

The exhibition "Suppose You’re Not There"  at Arter Istanbul redefines the relationships between objects, space, and time in an imaginative and innovative way.
"Suppose you're not there, but close enough to notice, and that in itself becomes an experience."
The building itself enhances the artistic journey with its modern design and open spaces, fostering deeper engagement between visitors and the artwork, making it an ideal setting for reflection and creativity.

Superb gallery and art centre, with a lovely bookshop and decent cafe serving proper lunches. I spent a whole afternoon there and came across just four other visitors. Let’s hope the Instagram crowds don’t descend upon it any time soon.

(+) Arter is my go-to gallery in Istanbul. They constantly change exhibitions, and my visit lasted about 3 hours. The building architecture is amazing, and personnel are very helpful. The gallery includes a library and a bookstore. I recommend becoming a member even if you visit only a few times every year. They have lockers for your backpacks, and they even have a free shuttle that takes you to Taksim and another city location. The exhibition curatorship is great also featuring several contemporary artists.

(-) My only disappointment was that the cafeteria is very slow to cook your food. I have to wait about 35 or 40 minutes for a simple Cacio e Pepe pasta, not the first time this has happened, even when there are no people waiting for their meals.
