Restaurants that will pick us up
« on: June 20, 2013, 18:17:47 PM »
Hi all.  We're looking to find restaurants that will collect us from our place in Ciftlik and deliver us home.  I realise that lots do it in Calis and Fethiye but I imagine it'll be more limited in Ciftlik.  We already know of:

Mekan
Shaka
1881 Escape - never been there but they say they'll pick up
Kings Garden

Thanks,

Sue   ;D

Sue, not sure where you are in Cuftlik but the dolmus service from fethiye mosque to the ciftlik village Main Street are really good and run late. Calis not so good as they run along the top road and you have to change at the top of BMB.

Great!  Thanks Jacqui.  And on your birthday too!  Amazing that they will pick up as far away as Ciftlik.

Simon, there's a City bus that goes from Ciftlik to Calis and back which is quite good too.  I'd just been hoping for restaurants that would pick us up and, more importantly, drop us back when we want a nice night out and a couple of drinks.

Cheers both,

Sue

We've not actually been picked up for a meal before, (it's very generous and a great incentive to use specific restaurants, great for my daughter with little ones when the owner ran them home) but we love the dolmus services, can't recommend them highly enough. I wish we had similar in UK! It's only a few pence each way, and, if as Simon says you have a regular service, great! It's never been a problem for us, in fact we love always hopping on and off them.  All part of the Turkey experience.

Yes, we'll use them quite a bit.  This is really just for a treat from time to time.   ;D

Going to book Kings Garden as its in Fethiye. Will probably get picked up then get water bus back to Calis. A few beers and taxi home.

We quite often walk along the beach into Calis or get on our bikes  :)

The Istanbul Restaurant in Kaya also do a pick-up service as far out as Ciftlik.

Thanks KKOB.  I'll look 'em up.  Nice restaurant?

I know it must sound like we're being lazy from the various 'get the bus' comments   ;D ;D ;D  but the thing is that, whilst we love Ciftlik, we live up near to the canal and at the end of a long, hot day and after a meal and a few drinks a 15 minute climb up a steep hill is not particularly appealing.  Most of the time we'll be taking the dolmus or the city bus and enjoying the Turkish way of doing things but once in a while a lift home is a bit of a treat.  Lotty, I entirely agree.  It's very generous of them.  We really appreciate it.
