"Decent place - we stopped off here on the way back from Pamukkale with our group as an inclusive lunch. The buffet had some decent options - the rice and Tavuk Döner stole the show though - gorgeous. We had to pay extra for drinks though, they were quite pricey."

"It’s a tourist cafe on the way to Pamukkale. Big area to sit and enjoy the view in warm weather. The meals are local and fine, it buffet type and good variety.
The drinks are not inland they don’t have coffee machine,only Nescafé which is poor and weird. As I wrote earlier,this trip to Turkey makes me feel I am in Uzbekistan with several lacks ((
Good clean toilets"
