The Townhouse

The Townhouse is one of my favourite places in İstanbul. Calling it merely a “bar” would fall short. With menus for every hour of the day, it offers a pleasant atmosphere at any moment, from brunch to lunch, from dinner to simply coming in for a cocktail. As someone who has been to plenty of cocktail bars in different countries that have earned their place on The World’s 50 Best Bars list, I can say with an easy heart that The Townhouse is the best bar I have been to. That it is one of the addresses I recommend most on Gastronaut Guide is certainly no coincidence.
