Chianti Cafe Pub is a gay exclusive bar is located on a side-street just in the middle of famous Istiklal Street, the heart of the nightlife and gay life of Istanbul.
I cannot understand why people like this place. It is really miserable. I came there and saw one local couple and one foreigner as myself. It was bloody empty. I ordered a shot of Jack Daniels and I was given some crap in the glass for which I had paid 25 liras. I could not even drink it. As for me I will not come back to thos place.
