Balkon Restaurant & Bar, Rooftop restaurant and bar in Beyoğlu district, Istanbul, Turkey.
Balkon Restaurant & Bar is a rooftop dining spot on the sixth floor of a renovated building in Beyoğlu. It has both sheltered indoor seating and an open terrace where guests can order international dishes and cocktails.
The building dates to Ottoman times and kept its original stone walls and wooden details when it was later modernized. These older elements were combined with new dining facilities and safety systems in the current space.
The spot draws both locals and travelers who come for Turkish and Mediterranean food in a social setting. The relaxed rooftop scene reflects how people in Beyoğlu naturally gather to spend time together in the evening hours.
The spot is easy to reach from the street and the rooftop can be visited at any time of day. It remains usable on rainy days since there is sheltered indoor seating available.
From the rooftop you can watch both the city lights and the street activity below while eating at the same time. The space shifts during the day from a calm dining spot to a more social gathering place once evening arrives.
