There are plenty of activities to do in Istanbul, many historical or modern places to visit, and numerous cafes and restaurants to be regulars. Unfortunately, these are not always places where families, especially families with young children, can have a comfortable time. Expert staff with gardens, playgrounds, specialist staff who are there to take care of children, activities for children, organizations... Here are a few of the features that families with children may want to choose when they want to spend time together as a family and socialize. In this article, we have compiled the best cafes and restaurants in Istanbul that have these features so that you can have a pleasant time with your children. We wish everyone a good time already!

Through these workshops, they may have the opportunity to meet at an early age and witness the art aspect of food, both with the ability to cook that will improve the quality of their lives in their adulthood. Workshops are held in a glass-walled compartment where you can watch your children, so you can witness your child's pleasant moments while sipping coffee at your table.

Fotini was also installed on the first floor of this historic mansion with families with children and babies in mind. Fotini has a rather nostalgic feel as family heirloom items passed down from generation to generation are used in its decoration. We are very confident that your children will be interested in wooden toys, pictures and children's books in their library. Fotini has a different children's menu in addition to Mediterranean, Turkish and German cuisine prepared with fresh ingredients. This beautiful place, which is waiting for you to visit, allows you to enjoy your meal at your table while your children play with a carer one day a week.
