Corner Irish Pub Istanbul

Good beer, cosy atmosphere

Yucel from Istanbul

About me I'm an engineer. I've been living in Istanbul since I was born. I love to travel around like a local as often as possible. Grabbing a beer while listening to good live music is priceless for me. I also love photography. Taking unique pictures, trying local tastes and meeting new people to share experiences are my aim. I'm trying to learn as much as possible from people around ...
"Corner Irish Pub is hidden really close to Istiklal St in Istanbul. They have very good beer varieties, burgers and a cosy inner atmosphere."

Beer is not my favorite drink, but sometimes it's a great option. On some weekends we meet up with friends and go for a photo safari starting from the historical old town up to Istiklal Street. These tours generally end up in a pub.

Corner Irish Pub is located in the heart of Istiklal Street (which is the most famous street in Istanbul) but in a very hidden way. We discovered Corner Irish Pub in that way. They have very good beer varieties, including a lot of exported ones, and a cosy inner atmosphere. They also have delicious beef burger options (meantime the Ottoman burger is my favorite) and French fries. They are my choices with beer.

In addition, if you are addicted to watching sports games, especially on weekends, you can watch a lot of soccer, American football and some other sports games.

Turkish Tea

Enjoy a glass of tea

Turkish Tea is had after each meal, and it's a reflection of hospitality. When in Istanbul, have it at small local tea houses in Sultanahmet.
