Cafés

In Turkey, tea (çay) is generally more popular and widely consumed than coffee. It is often served in small tulip-shaped glasses with a saucer. The act of drinking tea holds a strong social significance, with people frequently enjoying it throughout the day. However, while tea is more prevalent, coffee, especially Turkish coffee, also holds cultural importance in the country. Turkish coffee is known for its rich and aromatic flavour, prepared through a traditional brewing method. In Izmir, some of the best areas to go to for coffee and tea are Alsancak — the Kordon waterfront is particularly popular, offering a scenic setting to enjoy your drink —, the historic bazaar area of Kemeraltı, which is dotted with traditional Turkish tea houses, the central district of Konak and Bornova, which boasts trendy coffee shops and cafés.
