600 liras for an entire breakfast. Not the cheapest, but superdelicious and an awesome view. Very lovely lady preparing the dishes. Would definitely recommend for a great breakfast!

Kıymetini yalnızca damak tadı kuvvetli olan ve mekanların ruhunu hissedebilen insanlar anlayabilir. O yüzden bence hala tam olarak keşfedilmemiş Kalif Cafe. Keşfedilmemiş olması da ayrıca özel kılıyor zaten. Fırtına deresi kenarında yer alan en güzel en özel yer burası. Her köşesinde ayrı bir emek, ruh ve doku var. Henüz daha merdivenlerden inerken hissetmeye başlıyorsunuz bunu. Keşke burda yaşasam…” dedirtiyor insana. Kadın emeği, kadın eli ve kadın işletmeci Tülay Hanımın yeri burası. Elleriyle hazırladığı yabani pırasalı muhlama, anne patatesli yumurta, reçel, peynir, ekmek her şey çok ama çok lezzetliydi. Ne yazsam tam olarak burada olmayı yansıtmayacak o yüzden mutlaka gelmelisiniz. Tekrar geleceğim. Ellerine ve yüreğine sağlık Tülay abla.

كوفي في كوخ صغير وجميل بجانب النهر تنزل له عبر درج من الطريق العام الى جانب النهر الكوخ جميل فيه جلسات خارجية وداخلية واطلاله جميلة من كل الجهات المكان رائع بتفاصيله الصغيرة وبالقهوة والشاي والحلى المقدم… كما يقدم الطعام ولكن لم اجربه المضيفة تعاملها ممتاز ومتعاونه انصح فيه

My husband and I had a great evening! The food was superb and the venue was great. Lovely atmosphere on the cute balcony, hidden away from busy street, overlooking the river rushing under an iconic stone bridge. We really enjoyed our meals! Tulay (host) looked after us so well. She was friendly and took so much time with us to explain things about the food and Turkey. We have a new friend! A hidden away gem worth looking for down a little path.

Mutlaka görülmesi gereken doğanın tabloya dönüştüğü mükemmel bir mekan. Kahvaltı için gittik zamanımız olsaydı daha uzun kalmak isterdik. Kahvaltı tam yöreye uygundu.
