We have visited this cafe bar many times. This cafe is what you imagine Turkey to be all about. We love sitting and chilling listening to great music watching the world go by. There are some things in life that should never change Cafe Del Mar is one of them.

Friendly service, great choice of coffees and cakes (they do affogatto & tiramisu cake - not very Turkish but good), a small quiet spot to cool off after the beach

This is a wonderful oasis of taste and comfort. The attention is individual and the drinks and snacks of the highest quality. The ambience, meanwhile, is simply sumptuous: much of the decor (pictures, bric-a-brac, boxes of trinkets and such) is actually for sale – so you can probably imagine the spousal pressure I came under to visit, settle in with...

We went in for a snack and the abundance of enthusiasm outside to bing us in, went to complete indifference once in. Took ages to get our drink, some more ages for the toast (/how difficult can it be?)... Best of all, the place was very far from busy at the time of day! Place to avoid...

Lovely ecclectic mix of nick nacks and ambience, always had people in everytime we walked by. Good for snacks through the day or late coffee's or cocktails, had a really good buzz about the place, we even bought a ring from a little 'treasure chest'. Make the effort to learn a bit of Turkish and it will raise a smile... More

Having been to Kalkan on 3 previous occassions, I can't believe I've never been here until this holiday. This is a lovely cafe/bar with friendly staff. We went for pre-dinner drinks and often after dinner for drinks and cake - their tiramasu is amazing!! I will definately return here next year, thank you!

We had walked by this bar a couple of times and decided to try it. It was very interesting as it sold various antiques as well. We ordered cocktails which were great. Each cocktail was accompanied with a plate with turkish delight and melon.The music was really good and we sat at the front of the bar so it was... More
