I went to lunch at this place. They have alcohol, but we didn’t order any. We had burgers, and they were good. The service was average.

One thing to note is that there are a lot of cats in the restaurant, and they can be a bit distracting during your meal.

Overall, the place is good, but the cats can be a bit of a nuisance.

I visited this place to try something different, and it was generally good, not bad. The food was also quite pleasant. The atmosphere wasn’t particularly great, but it was tolerable. Additionally, there were quite a few cats roaming around the tables, which was annoying bit it’s okay ✨

We started with the beer sampler set consisting of 6 different 1/3 of a pint each. I liked the wheat and the red ale ones the most.

Then we ordered Guacamole which comes with its traditional sides salsa sauce and tortilla chips. Guac was rich in flavor, and was obviously prepared with its original spices. It could be a bit more chunky, instead of mushy.

The beef brisket sandwich with cheddar cheese was superb! Extremely savory and the tenderness of the meat was very good.

The place is good for outdoor dining. Especially in the spring and summer.

Service is quite good, tables are well kept, clean and neat. Personnel is nice and food comes as quick as possible.

Overall score 4.3/5 for an Outdoor Bar

I’m visiting Istanbul from America and was craving a little bit of my home food. This place was perfect and super busy! Even though they were busy I still received great service. Would definitely recommend this place!

Staffs are very friendly and helpful, vibe is fine but I don't understand why u will have to go through a security door and the Entrance is not very obvious if u can't read Turkish, would say standard craft beer except their Nitro Stout which is really a gem. Foods are lovely as well, would definitely give it a 5 star if it's not a taproom.
