Lunch at Izela, Kayaköy. There’s a first time for everything, even if that first time has been a long time coming. If you know the Fethiye area and you’ve been to the village of Kayaköy, chances are, you know Izela Restaurant. Chances are, you’ve eaten there on more than one occasion, actually. Because Izela Restaurant …
Update May 2024 – Although under the same ownership, Babzen has had a major refurbishment and is now called Medcezir Restaurant. We’ll update this article once we’ve been to eat and take a few photos. A quick conversation of ‘I’ve taken this place on now,’ and a few weeks later Babzen Kebab was open for …
We love Fethiye harbour’s Boğaziçi Restaurant! Every town has them. Those places that make you feel safe and comfortable because it just feels like they’ve been around forever. Hello Büfe along Fethiye harbour is one such place – it’d be a travesty if it ever wasn’t there. And another place, just a smidge further along …

There are oodles of places to eat around Fethiye, serving all manner of international and Turkish dishes, whether they be meat, seafood …
Tucked away at the end of the main stretch of Çalış Beach is the now well-established Lukka Bar Restaurant & Cafe. We’d been living in Fethiye for well over ten years before we ventured into Lukka – and we’ve been on-and-off regular customers for over ten years since then. Lukka Bar, Restaurant & Cafe – …
As you know, if you read this blog often, when we have friends or family over to visit in winter, we’re quite partial to a little drive up into the mountains beyond Üzümlü to Kırkpınar Restaurant. This is especially fun in the winter months because you can sometimes be thigh-deep in snow. But it doesn’t …
