Bars and Restaurants You Miss From Yesteryear
« on: June 18, 2016, 10:01:45 AM »
Inspired by another topic

Why places do you wish were still here...Calis or other local areas. Or maybe a particular era for an existing place...

I will kick off with the Birlik down in Koca Calis - simple, good food and huge measures  ;)  No floor inside, but they did rake the beach to keep it neat.

Bus Stop. 
It was a fabulous bar when we first came to Calis.  Many a great night was had in there  :)

La Terace (which is now the Curry Palace). Loved that place it as so cool and chilled out and the staff and Owner were lovely people.  Always remember Serkan at the bottom of the steps waiting to welcome you.  People watching up there was the best.  I remember one night they had a guy up there fire eating and swinging around fireballs. 
I also like the Bus Stop below La Terace for a drink or two. The guys in the bar there were great and the cocktails were the best.  The prom has never been the same without those two places.
For Fethiye we miss the Restaurant at the end of Paspatur, The Cadde, going upstairs and looking out at the view over the Marina, was like an Oasis in such a busy part of town. The home made lemonade in there was so good as were the beef burgers.   Also miss the Italian Restaurant that was in Paspatur lovely setting very cool and good food.

Must all be from the same era but I too loved La Terrace,Bus stop and the Italian in the Pas Partur.Places often go through phases and it's usually because of the staff ,we loved Cafe Soul when Billy,Ossie and Serkan were there,we loved Anna's for a season a few years ago but staff changed.We loved the Birlik and Suatts but that was short lived as within a couple of years the chef,owners etc moved on and then they closed

Easy question - The Post Office (2).

Wonderful people and the main reason we kept going back.

Mrs H was particularly fond of the place - I have no idea why   ;)
