The train station itself is a great location from the point of view of history and Agatha Christie fans! But it's a bit dirty inside. There is an Oriental Express cafe. As a reminder of the events that took place here. The cafe itself does not inspire confidence. But it's interesting to come in and see!

It's a very empty place. The prices are huge, there are almost no visitors. How they survive is not clear. And there's a tea room behind the station. It has the best tea and coffee in the area)

It was one of the best times you've ever had. It's like we've traveled through time. The quality of service is very good. The food, the appetizers were very good. The prices seem to be high, but it is definitely recommended.

Three stars only out of respect for the years, the price tag is above average, the old ones are unhappy that they are bothered by waiters with faces that they all owe them, they were asked to explain the composition of the dishes on the menu- they practically do not speak English, they ordered the dishes alone-at the same price- the bill increased when paying, explaining it is unclear in Turkish why in fact they brought a dish with the same name for 2 times more expensive. By the atmosphere, we didn't get the Wow we expected... or the staff was so impressed! To see-yes, a cup of tea-yes, the food does not sparkle.... Don't expect any more good impressions.

Walking around Istanbul, it is impossible not to go to the train station, and there to the cafe where Agatha Christie's work "Orient Express" was born. There were a lot of people in the cafe, which indicates its popularity, including among local residents. We were not hungry, so we tried coffee and the national dessert "kenefe", it was delicious, recommended!

A symbolically interesting place))). At the same time, everything is clean, comfortable and delicious! The waiters are competent specialists! We were sure that visiting the place once was a must, and we didn't regret it.

The staff served quickly and correctly. If you want to eat, go to the hall or to the outdoor veranda, if you want to drink tea or coffee, go to the platform. Prices are not more expensive than all local establishments, everything is cooked delicious. About feelings- who has any associations with Agatha Christie here?)

It's an amazing place. Atmospheric. We have been here many times. And we come back again passing papular places (restaurants, cafes), this place attracts us with its history. Perhaps, just like us today, 100 years ago, Agatha Christie was sitting behind these snow-white tablecloths. You may call my words naive, but you won't understand us until you've been here. Objectively, the price on the menu is average. Not expensive. The staff is polite. The order is delivered quickly, probably due to low workload. Come and you won't regret it! Whether you drink a cup of coffee, a glass of wine or a beer. You will be equally welcome!

Orient Express Restaurant was opened in 1890. The building, built by the Prussian architect Jasmund, inspired the design of all railway stations in Central Europe in the same style. In the 1950s and 60s, the restaurant and hotel became a favorite place of many famous journalists and writers. With the development of air and road transport, it is experiencing some decline. In 1995, after restoration, while preserving the historical flavor, it again becomes a popular place for tourists and travelers. We went in for coffee, ordered tea, coffee, baklava and cake. The atmosphere of the Victorian era: prim, arrogant, expensive, in English ... more like a museum.

The atmosphere is 5 points, the positive is over (they add 60 lire per person to the bill for "water, dry bread and butter"! - these starters are not specified and are served as a compliment in normal places. prices for meat and other dishes are extremely high, alas. I do not recommend it.

The place that was once a restaurant is now in good hands of restoration. We have found some historical data that are thought to belong to the Republican period.
