In the heart of Cihangir's bohemian scene, Smyrna occupies a former antique shop that has kept its eclectic furniture and artistic charm. By day, it's a cozy neighborhood cafe serving excellent breakfast and coffee; by night, it transforms into a vibrant bar with DJs and dancing. A true Cihangir institution where artists, writers, and creative types gather.

Editor's Tip

The essence of Cihangir bohemia. Cafe by day, bar by night. Rainbow flag at entrance - LGBTQ+ friendly. Antique furniture gives unique character.
