Must-see nightlife in Türkiye

  • B52

    Marmaris

    The split personality B52 comes in two parts: a boisterous club on one side and a chilled cocktail bar with outside seating on the other.

  • Deep Blue

    Fethiye

    Almost disappearing into the Bar St melee, this tiny bar specialises in live music. Turkish waterpipes (nargile) are available.

  • Keyif

    İzmir & the North Aegean

    Musicians often entertain the drinkers at this rough-and-ready bar on the waterfront. Tabletop dancing is not unknown.

  • Cafe Cafe

    Fethiye

    Serves decent coffee, as well as good cakes and light snacks. Tables out front are prime people-watching territory.

  • Moonlight Bar

    Kalkan

    Enjoys a prime position between new town and old town; Kalkan's oldest boozer is still one of its liveliest.

  • Mojito Lounge & Club

    Kalkan

    Swish cocktail lounge with a clubby vibe later on in the evening, but expect pretty commercial dance tunes.

  • Tyna

    İzmir

    The outside tables are hot property at this pizzeria on a small square. Most just come for a beer, though.

  • Pareto

    Bursa

    Beneath hanging creepers, this side-street courtyard cafe is a welcome retreat from the Bursa bustle.

  • Kahve Dünyası

    Istanbul

    The Eminönü branch of this popular local coffee chain is near the Spice Market.

  • Nihavent

    Black Sea Coast

    Tucked behind a co-owned restaurant in an alley leading back from the harbour, this timber-ceilinged pub serves some of the most inexpensive beers in the…

  • Şişman Pub

    Trabzon

    Smoky, blokey pub that's low-key with football on the telly and large open windows for views down across Kahramanmaraş Caddesi. Draught Efes from ₺17.
