Other Venues in Beyoğlu
Klein Garten
Hidden garden bar in a Beyoğlu backstreet courtyard. Craft cocktails, dim lighting, and a crowd that skews creative and international. A good escape from the Istiklal chaos.
Salon IKSV
Concert venue run by the Istanbul Foundation for Culture and Arts. Programs jazz, world music, and Turkish contemporary acts. Intimate 200-capacity room. Tickets TRY 200-500.
Nevizade Sokak Meyhane Row
Not a single venue but an entire street of traditional meyhane taverns. Raki, meze plates, and live fasil music fill the air nightly. Outdoor seating dominates in summer. Budget TRY 300-600 per person for a full evening.
Arkaoda
Kadikoy's legendary alternative music bar, but they opened a Beyoğlu branch. Indie rock, DJ sets, and a scruffy, artistic crowd. No cover most nights. Beer TRY 100-150.
