I went for the mid day workshop. The location is very nice and was easy to find with google maps. The workshop was hosted by Togrul who was very friendly and welcoming. It was only myself and one other guest attending, so the session was very social and chilled. Togrul also made us a very nice pistachio based drink. Definitely recommend this workshop if you have a couple of hours to fill and you want to do something chilled out.

Una experiencia original y plagada de encanto. Algo diferente para conocer más a fondo la tradición cafetera del país en un lugar con encanto. Nuestro taller corrió a cargo de Rinad, un profesional simpático, amable y con buen conocimiento de la historia del café. Recomendable Translate this opinion into English.

Los empleados del local no tenían conocimiento ni tenían preparado el taller cuando llegamos. El taller fue muy bien y el chico fue encantador, por esa parte perfecto. Nos dieron unos mini cezve tras pedirlos, porque ya no los ofrecen, pero no lo tienen actualizado en la web

The staff at the shop weren't aware of the workshop and hadn't prepared it when we arrived. The workshop itself went very well, and the guy was lovely—perfect in that respect. They gave us some mini cezve after we asked for them, as they no longer offer them, but their website hasn't updated that information.

Esperienza diversa dal solito, interessante e carina per conoscere meglio un aspetto importante della cultura turca. La nostra guida Adema è stata molto cordiale e coinvolgente e ha fatto di tutto per farci avere una bella esperienza. 2 grandi pecche: 1. Dura troppo. Sarebbe stata perfetta se fosse durata meno di un’ora. 2. La tazza che viene data per ricordo è una semplice tazzina bianca con piattino in legno, brutta. Avrei preferito pagare meno per un’esperienza più breve e la cezve. Translate this opinion into English.

Different experience than usual, interesting and nice to learn more about an important aspect of Turkish culture. Our guide Adema was very friendly and engaging and did everything to make us have a good experience. 2 big flaws: 1. It lasts too long. It would have been perfect if it had lasted less than an hour. 2. The cup that is given as a souvenir is a simple white cup with a wooden saucer, ugly. I would have preferred to pay less for a shorter experience and the cezve. Opinion translated. Show original.

Adema was our Turkish Coffee class host & she was so knowledgeable and sweet. We learned so much about the history and unique process, plus we really enjoyed the hands on activity. My 80 year old father was very engaged and raved about how great the experience was. I would highly recommend this activity & it looks like they offer other fun crafts, etc as well.

I had a great time with Din. He started with a great introduction on the history of coffee, then we moved on to the practical side. It was a lot of fun, I 100% recommend this activity in Istanbul! The workshop is beautifully decorated, it was perfect! What's more, we left with a few gifts! Thanks also for Mehmet Efendi's address!

Really had a great time! The teacher, Nargis, she made the workshop fun and easy going. My companions weren´t that excited to do it, but in the end they said that also enjoyed the activity very much, more than they expected (they confessed that had low expectations, but were really happy about doing it). We learned a lot and now know how to prepare the turkish coffee by ourselfs. I definnitely recommed it to those who enjoy a good cup of coffee.

La actividad cumplió con las expectativas, la zona en la que se encuentra no es la mas céntrica y es una calle medio descuidada por lo que al llegar puede resultar extraño pero una vez que se ingresa al lugar esta todo preparado. Lo unico que nos vendieron un moledor de cafe que resulto ser mas caro que lo que suele estar en el mercado por lo que recomiendo en toda la estancia en estambul en general no comprar ni aceptar cosas q te ofrecen para vender. Translate this opinion into English.

The activity met expectations, the area in which it is located is not the most central and it is a somewhat neglected street so when you arrive it may seem strange but once you enter the place everything is prepared. The only thing they sold us was a coffee grinder that turned out to be more expensive than what is usually on the market, so I recommend throughout your stay in Istanbul in general not to buy or accept things they offer you to sell.

Todo perfecto, Mohamed tiene un don para introducirte en el cuento. La sala donde se hace esta muy bien decorada y todo estaba preparado al mínimo detalle. El ingles de Mohamed perfecto y si entiendes un poco de ingles es muy facil de seguir. Nos contó sobre la historia del cafe turco y luego preparamos nuestro proprio cafe que era delicioso. Es una actividad imprescindible. Gracias Mohamed Translate this opinion into English.

Everything is perfect, Mohamed has a gift for introducing you to the story. The room where it is done is very well decorated and everything was prepared to the smallest detail. Mohamed's English is perfect and if you understand a little English it is very easy to follow. He told us about the history of Turkish coffee and then we made our own coffee which was delicious. It is an essential activity. Thank you Mohamed Opinion translated. Show original.

Una actividad muy entretenida para los amantes del café. Aprendes sobre el tipo de café a usar y sobre el proceso o arte de preparar del café turco. Incluye un relato histórico a manera de introducción, lo cual agrega valor al curso. Finaliza el curso con una conversación muy amena saboreando el café que se preparó. El juego de café que regalan es una versión económica y tienen para la venta el que se usa en la clase.

It has been wonderful. we have learned the culture of turkish coffee. It is unforgivable not to come to this workshop. The guys are the friendliest we have found in Türkiye. They are attentive and very kind. We would have stayed two more hours. Mi madre no habla nada de inglés y yo tengo un nivel bajito y nos hemos enterado muy bien porque son magníficos.
