Best place for lunch
« on: August 20, 2015, 09:26:00 AM »
After reading about the polluted seawater in Calis I'm thinking of Gemiler Beach for a swim, then somewhere in Kayakoy for a late lunch. Whats the best place? Preferably somewhere we can use the pool.

Also, does the bus from Fethiye run all day, does it stop at midday?

We love the Istanbul, lovely tranquil place.  They grow their own fruit and veg and bake their own bread which is so nice.  They have a very good pool at the back of the restaurant with lots of sunbeds. IMHO it is less touristy and more chllled than Muzzy's     It is just along the road from Muzzy's so look into both and choose the one you like. 
No pool, but worth going into for a drink.  The Levissi Garden, which is built right in the front of the Ghost Town and they have a vast wine cellar and let you have samples. Some of their wine is really good.

We love Istanbul for lunch too, it's one of the first places we visit. In lovely surroundings with wonderful food and very friendly staff. We've gone home in the past with a bag of fresh veg as a gift and often (if we can manage it) theres ice cream on the house.  ;D

Yes, I have had free ice cream, always with a flower attached to the glass bowl.

Make sure that The Istanbul doesnt have coaches booked in at lunchtime.... There is a lovely small placee on the way down to Muzzies that us "girls" used to go to.. Lovely food and very peaceful... Infact quite a few of the restaurants up there have coaches booked in at lunchtime so choose carefully..

Something very different, on the road going from Kaya to Gemiler is Avalon Steppes, where the yurts are. They have a very good, small restaurant which is receiving rave reviews on TA at the moment.

You've probably had your lunch by now but I can highly recommend the Izela, it's down the side road opposite the Istanbul and is absolutely amazing. We ate there last night and it was wonderful. The lunch menu looked good, meze, wraps, salads, pasta and sandwiches,  15 to 25 tl. There's a pool at the back.
