Şerbethane Cafe & Restoran

Came here for late Sunday brunch. Beautiful place — very friendly service. Recommend the Turkish omelette and the Kunefe.

Delightful café and delightful service! This place exemplifies the Turkish hospitality, especially with servers like Jacko, who’re extraordinarily friendly and sweet. Do stop by for some excellent cya and coffee — and endless hours of friendly relaxed conversation :)

Kleines nettes Restaurant ganz in der Nähe der Blauen Moschee und eines kleinen Basar´s. Man sitzt im Scatten der historischen Stadtmauer und kann das bunte Treiben beobachten.
Das Restaurant ist auf traditionelle türk. Küche ausgerichtet und bereitet Speisen auf dem Kohlegrill zu. Ich hatte einen astreinen Kebap und die Pide war auch super! Dazu versiegelt die supersüße hausgemachte Lemonade den Magen :)
Nach dem Essen kann hier ebenfalls super Shisha rauchen. Der Service ist schnell und zurvorkommend, ohne dabei aufdringlich zu sein.
Das Restaurant ist im mittleren Preissegment, da es sich an einem tour. Hotspot befindet. Gerne wieder.

Jthe place used to be the horse «garage» in the Ottoman Empire back in that days. Today, you can fin a nice and modern but turkish style restaurant. The meze were great: humus, salad, yogurt and rice in leave rolls. The main course and most popular is Urfa Kebab: meet with rice, veggies and french fries. And of course, a baklava for desert and turkish tea. A great and delicious experience.

Even months later, I still have fond memories of Serbethane. Whether it be for a coffee or tea break, dinner or even a late night hang out with some nargile, we really enjoyed it.
We happened upon the café by coincidence on our first evening in Istanbul, while roaming the streets in search of somewhere to eat. A little bit overwhelmed by the restaurants nearby that tried their darndest to lure you in, Serbethane was different. The staff was friendly and welcoming, but never pushy. The outdoor sofa were also a huge draw. Everything we ate was DELICIOUS! Nice presentation, tasty, filling and well priced. A nice place to sit down after a day of walking, to enjoy food and rehydrate. Of note: there is no alcohol served here, but there are lots and lots of juices and sodas to choose from, so we didn’t miss it.
The location is also pretty great: tucked into the edge of the Arasta bazaar, partly outside, partly inside, with sofas and regular tables to choose from. When it gets cool in the evenings there are blankets to wrap yourself up, making sure you can spend some more time lingering.
