Located in the heart of city center (Anatolian side, Istanbul) at Haydarpasa central station which is over 105 years old by the sea and it seems like time has stopped there..The atmosphere takes you to somehere 60s. There are black and white photos of famous Turkish artists and singers of those days on the walls and playing their music low enough not to block you chatting with friends. There are live music nights that everyone sings along with the band; very cosy and lovely time you may spend. The concept is "meyhane" like Greek taverns so you will find alcohol and the very famous Eagean- Anatolian "meze"s are served which goes along perfectly together. Turkish people usually do not eat main dish and set the table with different kinds of cold and hot Mezes with "raki".You can find meat and chicken dishes everywhere else so, do not skip cold and hot Mezes; try and will not regret. The only thing is the serving staff may not be proficent in English, but you will experience how easily you will understand each other. The station is closed right now so you can also have a walk around the beatiful building with a sea view or abandoned cars and railways which are decorated by graffiti artists to take some pictures if you like... A bit sad to see a place so silent, abandoned, lonely which is used to be live and very crowded once...but definitely recommended to visit.
