Creatures of habit, that’s what we are… We’re always wandering around the Fethiye area trying out places we’ve never been to before – and some we go back to every now and then. And then there are those places where it’s just a given that, in between visits to all those other beaches, bars and …
El Camino Hostel & Pub. It’s the pub bit we’re concentrating on in this post. Because we’ve been up to this rooftop terrace bar many times and it’s a great place with a great view! For as long as we’ve known it, Fethiye’s Karagözler has always managed to play host to a happy mix of …
“When we eat out, where would you say we go most?” If we’re in Fethiye, Popeye’s boat or the kebab place if we’re in Çalış. “Yeah, I think that, too…so why have we never written about the kebab place in Çalış?” This was a little conversation between me and Barry a short while back – …
Çalış Beach in winter always interests us because you get the odd business or two that seem much more lively in the daytime than they do in the busy summer season. Calisto is one of those places. Yeah, we know it’s the change in weather and all that but you just get used to seeing …
So there we were, sat in Cafe Park Teras, and we were just chatting to owner, Tayfun, about different places we like to eat around Fethiye. “Köfteci İmadettin,” says Tayfun. “Where?” “Köfteci İmade… Don’t tell me you’ve never heard of Köfteci İmadettin.” “Nope.

Kahve Dünyası (Coffee World) is Turkey’s addition to the world of international coffee shop chains. And when Fethiye’s first shopping centre, Erasta AVM, was built a Kahve Dünyası branch was included in the list of stores. It’s proved to be a popular choice. Kahve Dünyası, Fethiye During the early ’90s (and possibly the ’80s – …
And close your eyes…and take a biiiig, deep breath, taking in that lovely breath of the proverbial fresh air that makes you feel life is good. Because we all need a breath of fresh air from time to time…and a little corner of Fethiye just got one – well, we think so, anyway. Here’s a …
As it was birthdays we were out for (and because dad was paying), we decided to give Mancero Kitchen a try for the first time. When you move to another country, family birthdays and Christmases become events celebrated when you’re together again for that short period of time. Yeah, you can post Turkish Christmas gifts …
Yes. Mehtap Lokantası. It’s been around for some years, just sitting on the corner of the main junction in Çalış. We’ve never seen it packed, despite its large area and number of covers. But customers do come and go…and we come and go, too, very occasionally. There’s no reason why we don’t go there more …
The best laid plans… Yes, just over 12 months ago, we wrote a blog post about how we stopped for much needed refreshment at King’s Garden Restaurant in Fethiye after we’d walked to the top of Fethiye Lycian rock tombs. The staff were just having a food break during their gardening activities and we were …
