Elephant Pub Kadikoy

Bar Pub

😐 Overpriced. They don't have 20% of beer from the list (draft). The cocktail compared with the similar bar was better but still without simple syrup. I am starting to think they have the wrong recipe for whiskey sour. It still doesn't worth 60 liras. They also added 10% tip to our bill. People often mention drinks,

    Not that cool place actually... Passed it a couple of times already, finally made it inside, had two beers and the mixed snack plate. The mixed plate is 90% fries, everything comes out of the Fritteuse which makes the helim taste like old fries too🙄, and the single chickenbite they give you is cut into three thinnest possible slices to make it look more. Also the beer was way overpriced compared with the prices of all the places next door. Pablo there for 28 lira, next door 21 lira and the glasses were full of fussels like hell and had still rests of lipstick on them.... 🙄 not cool...

    You can find better pubs in Kadife Sokak. Expensive and not worth to go there.

    Tourist scam. They charge service fee without telling you. Please avoid this bar there are much better places in Kadikoy.

    Ordered just two beers. One arrived immediately, other did not arrive in 15mins. Instead of apologizing, waiter rudely insisted that this is bar’s failure but not his. 🤷‍♂️ Walked over to a different watering hole.

    More pretentious than cool. Nice terrace to people watch while having a drink. However, waiter made a point that it was a bistro pub so they don't have typical local alcohol (raki). Placed used to be much better in my opinion, or maybe this time I just got unlucky with a lousy waiter.

    Tourist scam, hidden costs. The bill comes 443 TL, they want 450 :D:D + 10% unwritten service charge + the waiter wants tip. They keep nagging you for an order right after you consume your food or drinks. Oh and don't leave drinks on the table to go to the bathroom, your drinks will eventually vanish.

    When we paid they did not bring the change for a long time until we eventually asked. Basically they wanted to keep it. If they had brought the change we might have tipped but we left with another feeling of being squeezed for cash. Half the draught beers were off. We ended up with Becks and the first beer was normal but a second tasted off. I ended up with gastroenteritis in the early hours and at a clinic. That may have not been the source of the food poisoning but it wasn’t a problem pleasant visit .

    Quite crowded and a bit more expensive than the nearby bars. But nice for a quick drink or two. Might be somewhat over-hyped.

    As two, we ordered alcohols and foods at once (in total 200 liras). Less than an hour passed, we still didnt finish our food, a waiter came and said that we haven't order for the LAST 30 MINS, we should have order smt or leave! I dont understand this unethical behavior. I'd rather throw my money into the trash than spending in this bar again.

    Worst bar ever. We went inside they didnt say anything at the entrance once we sit down we tried to discuss the price because of previous negative experience then they decided not to serve us and tried to kick us out. Once we mentioned that we are payable customers and just wanted to pop in for a drink but not willing to pay extra just because we are from an other country around 10-12 peoples took us outside and phisically beat us outside of the bar. Police had to been called. Strongly not reccommend for anyone to visit this place especially if you arent from here or dont speak turkish… people on picture was one of the “ leader “. Statement will be given to police next day and further investigation will be reqested by lawyer

    Good service, and good drinks. They have homemade Mexican beer with tequila shot inside. I recommend it! The pricing could be better tho

    Music is good but loud inside. Service is nice from the 2-3 times I have been here. But this last Saturday they decided to charge a racist 5% foreigner charge. I have been living here for two years and obviously they don't want me to come back. I can understand things can be tough financially but ripping off people based on whether or not they're Turkish is not the solution.

    I was just passing by but I will never come to this place because my uncle, he is 78 years old, needed to use their bathroom (it was an emergency) and they didn’t let him to use it.

    Just a place to share a beer. Didn't feel like staying here for something more.

  • 1/5 The Red C. 7 months ago on Google
    Terrible pub. They made us sit in the far corner, most drinks were not available, service was terrible, waiters were rude,food took over an hour to arrive… Not enjoyable and would not reccomend at all. Don’t come here. It is a waste of time.

    Great drinks, amazing staff. The interior is beautiful. Prices a bit on the more expensive side when it comes to İstanbul but visitor from abroad won't be surprised.
