Petra Roasting Co. Şişhane

The experience

A branch of Istanbul's well-regarded Petra Roasting Co. on Meşrutiyet Caddesi near Şişhane, pouring single-origin espresso and filter with unusually good fresh milk. The space is small and minimalist with a solid cake and pastry selection.

Dependable specialty coffee from one of the city's benchmark roasters.
