Ethem Tezçakar Coffee dates back to 1909 and is run by the fourth generation of the Tezçakar Family. It's a very small Turkish Coffee shop within the complex of the Grand Bazaar.
In the same alley you will see other cafes but I must emphasize the importance of this specific small Turkish Coffee shop as it's authentic and the coffee they serve is much better than any place within the Grand Bazaar vicinity (even the Şark Cafe that I have written about before).
So if you are tired and want to rest stop here order a Turkish Coffee (with sugar, with a little sugar or black). If you find space on the small stools cherish it. Enjoy...
