Turkish Coffee Making & Fortune Telling Workshop

It was a great experience attending this workshop. Kübra, who gave the Turkish coffee demonstration, was extremely knowledgeable, spoke excellent English, and was very helpful and informative. The workshop was not only about Turkish coffee; she also shared fascinating insights into Ottoman life, culture, history, and the geography of Türkiye. The entire experience was enjoyable, engaging, and educational. I highly recommend this workshop—you will not regret it. As an added bonus, the workshop takes place in Üsküdar, which is a wonderful area to explore, with plenty of great cafés, desserts, and local food options. Come and see it for yourself!

Wir waren tatsächlich nur zu zwei im Workshop - es war super angenehm, die Location ist auch sehr schön. Wir wurden von der europäischen Seite abgeholt und bis zum Cafe gebracht. Wir haben viel gelernt über die türkische Kaffeekultur, das war ein toller Einblick! Danke!

I happened to be the only participant, which turned into an unexpected private session that could have been quite awkward, but it wasn’t at all thanks to my wonderful host! I sadly forgot her name but she was absolutely amazing! Very kind, welcoming, and knowledgeable. She explained everything clearly, made the whole experience feel natural and relaxed, and we had such a great conversation throughout. It genuinely felt like she enjoyed the experience just as much as I did. I’m truly grateful for how generously she shared her culture and knowledge with me. It made the experience feel very personal and meaningful. I would definitely recommend this activity to anyone. And of course, the coffee was excellent!

What a fun activity - the guides were very informative and gave a great history lesson of it - definitely worth it, I would do it again. Recommend getting there about 10 minutes before the workshop. The place is really nice as well. As for the fortune…. I am still waiting for that billion dollar jackpot!!! Ha!!

Kübra was an amazing host, she has taught us history and very interesting facts about Turkish coffee and culture.. in addition to the fact that now I know how to read the fortune of coffee 🥹❤️ very entertaining and nice experience, thank you so much

We learned a los about the history of turkish Coffee making and its process. Our guide Tanner was so kind and patient, as my Mother doesn't speak English and he waited for me to translate for her so she was not left out. The only thing is that we were expecting bigger bags of Coffee in our gift pack, they were very little. The rest was perfect.
