"Cafe Hide is a perfect spot to enjoy your day and unwind as it feels like you are out of the city. If you are looking for an escape, look no further!"

Hidden in one of the small streets in Arnavutköy, Cafe Hide is a perfect spot to enjoy your day and unwind as it feels like you are out of the city. If you are looking for an escape, look no further. Cafe Hide is beautifully designed and has a relaxing vibe with trees surrounding it and cozy chairs.

The garden is divided into two parts: in one part, you can have breakfast or/and lunch and in the other part, they only serve coffee and dessert. The breakfast section is usually more crowded than the coffee section. They serve breakfast 09:00-16:00, lunch 12:00-20:00, and the bakery is open all day. It might be hard to find a seat for breakfast, especially on Sundays but once you are seated, you will feel so relaxed that you will not want to leave for the rest of the day. Unfortunately, they do not take reservations.

The coffee is excellent as well. The only critique is that their dessert menu is very limited, as they serve only 4 desserts. The chocolate pan cookie served with ice cream is worth trying but make sure you are sharing it with a friend as one portion is enough for two. The prices are fair considering the location.
