Kordon Bar

Über diesen Ort Kordon Bar

Kordon Bar sits on Atatürk Caddesi — the famous Kordon waterfront promenade that runs along Izmir's Aegean seafront, one of the most pleasant urban waterfronts in Turkey. The bar is not exclusively gay but has a strong LGBTQ+-friendly reputation and is regularly mentioned by Izmir's gay community as a comfortable mixed venue. The waterfront setting is the appeal: chairs facing the Aegean, cold Efes beer or local Aegean wine, the sea breeze and the lights of Karşıyaka across the bay. The social atmosphere on the Kordon is Izmir at its most relaxed — less charged than Istanbul, less tourist-saturated, more genuinely local. A good choice for an earlier evening before moving to Alsancak's bar district.
