If you’re searching for a cozy nook in the vibrant heart of Beşiktaş, look no further than Hi Cafe. Tucked away on Rebap Sk. No:1, this delightful café is not just a spot to grab a coffee; it's an experience that intertwines a love for exceptional brews and feline friends.

As soon as you step inside Hi Cafe, you are enveloped in a warm and inviting atmosphere, the kind that encourages you to linger just a bit longer. The décor exudes charm, with comfortable seating that’s perfect for small gatherings or quiet moments of solitude. The soft light and subtle background music create an ambiance that feels both relaxing and stimulating – ideal for chatting with friends or diving into a good book.

Hi Cafe has garnered praise not just for its delightful atmosphere, but also for its exceptional coffee. Customers rave about the wide range of options, from traditional Turkish coffee to various espresso drinks, expertly crafted to satisfy every coffee lover’s palate. Rosio Zamudio remarked on the café's cleanliness and their singular focus on coffee, suggesting it's the perfect spot for those who appreciate quality over quantity. Whether you prefer a robust Americano or a smooth espresso, you'll find that each cup is brewed to perfection.

But Hi Cafe offers something more than just coffee; it’s a haven for cat lovers. As highlighted in the heartfelt review from 'A S', the resident cats at Hi Cafe are a cherished part of the establishment, treated like family. These furry companions roam freely, adding a unique charm to your visit. The owners clearly adore these cats, ensuring they create a safe and loving environment, making every encounter a delightful one. This is not just another café; it’s a sanctuary where you can relax with a cup of coffee while being serenaded by playful purrs and whiskers.

On the culinary front, while Hi Cafe may keep its menu focused, this doesn't mean it lacks diversity. Don't miss out on their famed menemen – a much-loved Turkish dish that has left a lasting impression on guests like Iliyana Tarpova, who insists it’s simply “out of this world.” Pair it with a slice of their incredibly fluffy chocolate cake, and you’ve got a perfect treat to complement your drink. Each bite is a testament to the care and passion the staff put into their offerings.

While Hi Cafe may belong to a category of cafes, it transcends the ordinary with its unique combination of cozy surroundings, exceptional coffee, and a loving cat community. Whether you’re a local or a traveler looking for a warm respite from the bustling streets of Istanbul, Hi Cafe promises a charming escape that will leave your heart and taste buds truly satisfied. Be prepared – you might just find yourself planning another trip to Istanbul, just to visit this beloved hideaway again!

My husband and I want to come to Istanbul for the 3rd time just to visit this cafe. It’s not the only cafe where you’ll find cats in Istanbul, but this one is special. These cats have a permanent home there, but they are free to go outside on their little adventures whenever they want. The owners (great people) love these cats as their children. Like there is a highlight on the cafe’s page on Instagram dedicated to these cats that’s called “çocuklar” that means “children” in Turkish (how cute is that??) The food is great too, by the way, but we were there mostly for the cats, to be honest :))

A friend recommended this place saying it was the best café in beşiktaş and it certainly didn’t disappoint. It has a cozy ambiance and is nicely warm in winter. The coffee was really good and we had the spongiest chocolate cake I have ever tried! Staff was super nice, and we got to hang out with the cutest cats 10/10 experience

They only sell coffee. Hot coffee, cold coffee. Americano, Turkish, coffee, expresso. Their specialty is coffee and they are good at it. They may have a home pastry. Super clean space. Location is great for people watching.

"Imagine walking into this little cafe and feeling like you've just discovered a culinary treasure. The atmosphere is so inviting, with soft lighting and the smell of freshly brewed coffee wafting through the air. When your food arrives, it's like a work of art on the plate – vibrant colors, enticing aromas, and flavors that dance on your palate. But what really sets this place apart is the people – the friendly faces behind the counter who greet you with a smile and make you feel right at home. Definitely worth a visit if you're in need of a delicious meal and a dose of genuine hospitality."
