Karga Bar
Multi-level candlelit bar that shaped Kadıköy's music scene since 1996
Reviewed by Mes Prestiges Editorial Team Last reviewed April 2026
Open since 1996 in a 19th-century wooden mansion on Kadife Sokak, Karga is a multi-level candlelit space hosting DJs, film screenings, and intimate performances. It shaped Kadıköy's alternative music scene and remains its beating heart.
Editor's Tip
Don't come for cocktails — come for the upstairs nooks and the bands. The first floor is for first-timers; the upper levels (especially the rooftop in summer) are where regulars settle. Wednesday-Thursday are the best music nights; the weekend lineup is usually filler. Pay cash; the bill arrives faster.
