a cozy cafe on akarsu in cihangir. by day, it's a chill coffee house and by night, it's a trendy craft cocktail bar with old fashioneds (!!) on the menu. i visited during the day and ordered an iced latte which came shaken martini-style and served with shaved chocolate. not standard preparation but the espresso was smooth and the drink frothy.
the small cafe has a few stools set up at the bar and towards the back of the cafe there is more sitting space. outside seating is also available but limited. the floor inside still has its original design and the ceiling is covered in rustic wooden beams. the bar's namesake, geyik, sits behind the bar in a frame overlooking the place.
