Café entertainment in Central Anatolia

  1. A

    Osmanlı Çarşısı

    An early-20th-century house serving çay, coffee and nargilehs. It's popular with Turkish students, there's a rustic toast wagon outside and the whole place has more character than a whirlpool full of dervishes.

    Ada Aile Çay Bahçesi

    The best place for a tea is Genclik Parkı, across the road from Opera Meydanı. Head straight for the Ada Aile Çay Bahçesi, which juts out into the lake, to watch the world go by over a samovar.

    Konya Fuarı

    In the evening it's fun to duck into the grounds of the Konya Fuarı, where you can sip tea while watching the locals navigate pedaloes round an artificial lake.

    Asmalı Konak Cafe

    A soothing venue set in a converted house, on a lively pedestrianised street. Nab a table on the balcony and watch the world stroll by with a glass of ayran in hand.

  5. E

    Café Bülbül

    Another peaceful refuge. It lures in students in search of a pleasant spot to flirt and relax over a soft drink.
