Rooftop bar questions

Is Pino Gare a rooftop bar with a Bosphorus view?

Yes. The terrace is on the 7th floor of the Orient Express Hotel in Sirkeci and looks over the Bosphorus, Hagia Sophia and the Golden Horn. You can come for drinks only or stay for dinner; both are served on the same terrace.

How much is a cocktail?

Cocktails are 800 TL and beer is 280–310 TL. Wine by the glass starts at 500 TL and a single rakı at 350 TL. The full list is on the drinks menu.

Can I watch the sunset from the bar?

Yes, all year. Sunset in Istanbul falls between 17:36 in early December and 20:40 in late June, and the terrace is open 13:00–23:30 every day, so every sunset of the year happens during opening hours. Book 60–90 minutes before sunset to have your drink on the table before the light changes.

Is the terrace open in winter?

Yes. The terrace has an open-air section and a glass-enclosed heated section, so the bar and the kitchen run all year.

How do I book a table for drinks?

Use the reservation page or WhatsApp +90 546 950 36 36. Write the date, time and number of guests, and say if you want a table for sunset.
