“ One of the best locations to have your Turkish coffee and hookah at the same time. This place is full of amazing Turkish history that goes back to the 17th century when this place was used for trade. The service is very nice and friendly, the speaks English well. The food was great and the apple hookah was one of the best ever experience. The price is reasonable for the atmosphere and the service. ”

“ *It is one of the oldest places in Gaziantep, it was a cave and had been restored to be a cafe in the old part of the city. *Small shops ın the hall of the cafe selling traditional accessories, bags and copper stuff. *Every Saturday, Wednesday and Friday they have live music program, it is nice to be there with friends and family (without children because of shisha and cigarettes smoke) ”
