hafız mustafa 1864

we tried their new branch in istiklal street... amazing location with amazing deserts as usual. we hadbaklavaand the berry cake (heavenly)... highly recommended

her şey bu kadar şekerli olmasa rüyalarımdaki mekan olabilirdi fakat o kadar şekerli ki tatlıların tadını alamıyorum, bayıyor beni. bi de mekana gelen her turist karışıkbaklavatabağı söyleyip yemiyor ya ona ifrit oluyorum. fıstıklı bir şey söyle, aşure ye, safranlı söyle... yok illabaklavaalacak. // hafız mustafa is a dreamy sweet shop that you can find all sort of dessert. surely you would want to try turkishbaklavabut also aşure, muhallebi, künefe and sütlaç recommended. p.s: warning ! high doses of sugar !

one of the best dessert places in istanbul. thebaklavais super delicious, the strawberry tart is out of the word!! everything is just amazing

it is highly recommended ?

you can’t pass by taksim without trying thebaklavaand kunafi of hafiz mustafa. very tasty and fresh ( taza). the only weakness i noticed in the place is the extremely overcrowded point of sale of hafiz halkoum products, the staff selling there were not friendly at all.

the best breakfast or tea break you can get in istanbul, turkey. they have wide varieties of sweets.baklavais super delicious and fresh. knefe is a must!! super yummy and not too sweet. always order tea with the sweets. recommended

taksim’den galatasaray’a gelmeden sol tarafta alt katı sürekli kalabalık görünen ancak yukarıda 5 kat oturma yeri daha bulunan süper tatlıcı. çok iyi ve hızlı servis.baklavave kadayıfları güzel. menülerinde her türlü tatlı mevcut. görünüşlerinden güzel oldukları belli oluyor. bir daha sefere sütlü tatlıları deneyeceğim. tavsiye ederim.

18.08.2019 have you ever tried a "chicken" dessert. prior to my holiday someone mentioned i must give it a try, so while on my travels and ticking off certain food must haves in istanbul, i finally gave it a try. i asked for the baked version. sadly it came cold. realised that even if you ask for the baked version of a dessert, it's still served cold. nonetheless it was soft and marshmallowy in consistency. initially you dont taste the shredded chicken but as you taste piece by piece and you look closely you can actually see the tiny shredded pieces of white meat. it's a rich dessert so i cousltn finish the portion size but definitely interesting in taste.

i had my favourite apple tea, and my sister had the chocolatebaklavawhich was delicious. perfectly crispy with all the individual layers showing absolute uniformity and full of flavour. this place is like the quern of desserts. the amount of people constantly coming in and ordering dessert or various types of baklava, turkish delights and nougat is astounding. not to mention they have 2 stores almost 2 shops apart in taksim square, that's besides the many other branches they have in istanbul. it's mind blowing the amount of indulgent treats this shop pushes out every minute.

one of the best knefeh i ever had. just perfect!
also tried the halkoum and turkishbaklavaand it's so delicious.
being a lebanese we do share common sweets but i have to say this place is one of the top regionally.

it’s next to impossible to resist this place if you pass by, rarely do you come across a patisserie which has such a grandeur, still after resisting once due to lack of time, i finally found this gem ? which i am sure won’t disappoint you weather you go for there traditionalbaklavaor mordern cakes ?

went there several times. i really love this place. fast service, clean desserts and very tasty.baklavawith ice cream is what i liked the most. recommended.

came across this place while sight seeing and thought i’d try some baklava. it was lovely however too much to finish it all and staff were good to pack the rest for me to take it away. thebaklavaisn’t as sweet as back in london so that was a plus. although i’m not a hugebaklavafan, l must say i’ll definitely have it again next time i’m back in turkey.

we always come back to hafiz mustafa whenever we crave turkish sweets. they have the best variety of lokum,baklavaand puddings. pistachiobaklavaand pistachio pudding are a must-try.

this place is overrated and always over crowded. we had to wait in line for an hour to pay for thebaklavaand it wasn't even good. all the pieces tasted the same and they were drowned in sugar syrup. as for the kunafa, it was average.

yaa o ağızda eriyen antep fısttıığı neydi öyle. bu gerçekten sanat olmalı. eğer giderseniz mutlaka antep fıstıklıbaklavave yanında mutlaka türk kahvesi için inanılmazzz bir tattı bu. anlatılmaz yenirrr cinsten:)

this is a very popularbaklavaspot and is always crowded. the quality of the nuts in thebaklavaare very good and you can tell that everything is very fresh.

we tried a multiple assortment of theirbaklavaand their style ofbaklavais just not to my preference. i found it too sweet and not crispy enough. it is a more soft and syrupy style of baklava..if you like yourbaklavalike that then you will love it.

we did try their kunafa and that was delicious as well as these small tins of pomegranate chocolate and coffee chocolate. those are tasty and the tins make good collectibles and memories of our time in istanbul.
