Cafes

Tea culture in Bodrum, much like the rest of Turkey, boasts a history that stretches back hundreds of years and permeates the heart and soul of Turkish life. More than a beverage, tea is seen as a symbol of hospitality and a vital piece of the country's cultural fabric. Turks relish their time spent in cafes — particularly in the cool shade of outdoor courtyards — enjoying a cup of sweet herbal or apple tea. No tea-time is complete without the traditional treat of baklava — a sweet, rich pastry layered with nuts and pistachios. Caffeine aficionados will get a chance to taste the rich, dark Turkish coffee. Brewed in a traditional pot known as a 'cezve', it's enjoyed slowly, allowing time for conversation and relaxation, and a game of Tawula (Turkish Backgammon). A symbol of hospitality and friendship, this potent brew often concludes meals and is usually accompanied by a piece of Turkish delight or a square of dark chocolate, creating a perfect harmony of strong and sweet flavours.
