Where to try San Sebastian cheesecake and good desserts in Istanbul (Kadıköy)?

For a price benchmark: in September 2026 a participant pointed to a café with lots of desserts at no more than 250 lira and compared it with Sirkeci, where similar desserts cost 450–550 lira. She had not tasted them herself, so this is a price comparison, not a taste review.

In Taksim, J’adore Chocolatier was recommended in July 2026: according to the review, its desserts are incredibly good and well worth trying. The same message mentioned Limonlu Bahçe, a hidden café in Taksim where you sit in a lemon garden.

According to the same traveler in July 2026, the street has everything, including places aimed at tourists, but its real strength is plenty of tasty local dishes — so you can have a proper meal there as well as dessert.

In July 2026 a traveler described a café on İcadiye Street that she had found through a social media reel: the desserts are delicious, especially the San Sebastian cheesecake. A few days later she wrote that she used to order only their San Sebastian, but on this trip tried the other desserts too — she loved them and found them tastier than at many expensive places.
