When in Ephesus don't miss this charming cafe with tasty food, wonderful coffee and good local products to bring back home (marmelades, olive oil, and homemade pomegranate concentrate).

We spent an enjoyable afternoon in St. Johns sitting outside chatting to the owners Doris and Mihil. It was just so nice to get a good strong cup of coffee and the humus and brown bread was beautiful. They also have a really good selection of books on Turkish Historical sites. I will definitely be to back next time I... More

Went here for an espresso. The drinks were a bit pricy, but a nice change from Turkish and apple tea. The atmosphere is very relaxing and I read my book here for a while. A nice place to chill out after seeing Ephesus.

If you go to Selcuk I would highly recommend you check out this little Cafe! The couple that run this place are the nicest people around. The coffee is amazing especially with a touch of cream! =)

While staying in Selcuk for three days, we fell totally in love with this incongruous little cafe with its very European, minimalist ambiance, and ate here repeatedly. The prices are unbeatable, and the owner is a chocolate lover, so bring him chocolate! He will treat you like royalty if you do! We spent a lot of time enjoying speaking with... More

Wonderful place to stop for a coffee, cold drink, or light meal. The Swiss owner is delightful. A terrific place to get out of the summer heat, revive, and restore.

We enjoyed the friendliness and the excellent food. The coffee and the juices merit special mention. Great place to visit to learn more about the country and the place, because the two owners are really excellent ambassadors of Turkey

They sure know how to do coffee at St. John's. Many different options for coffee, and none of it is instant coffee! (A rare find in Turkey) The food is very tasty and I would definitely recommend the Swiss Rösti for breakfast or lunch. In there shop there is homemade olive oil and soaps, which make a perfect gift to... More
