"Perched at the top of the Eyüp gondola, the café offers peaceful tranquility and sweeping views across the Golden Horn and Bahariye Islands—a spot made famous by Pierre Loti’s love of the place and the nearby Eyüp cemeteries—and I recommend trying both the café’s coffee and its traditional Turkish breakfast of fresh cheeses, vegetables, eggs, olives and cured meats." - Amelia Dhuga
