The Unique Beauty of Cunda is Completed with the Taste of Köşebaşı | HORECA TREND

Cunda Island is one of Turkey's paradise routes with its Greek houses, the smell of mastic, narrow streets, curd cheese, memorable views and relaxing bays. Now these beauties are completed with the taste of Köşebaşı. Köşebaşı's new branch, which has been aware of the importance of locality and tradition in food culture and cares about reflecting real tastes since 1995, was opened in Cunda. Köşebaşı Cunda, which will serve all year round in Cunda Despot House, one of the important symbols of the island and one of the favorite locations of Yeşilçam films, brings together the beauty of the island with taste.

Real Kebab Taste

The day starts with breakfast service at Köşebaşı Cunda, which offers Adana and Tarsus cuisine together with its culture. Köşebaşı Cunda, which introduces traditional tastes and real kebab taste to the island residents as well as local and foreign tourists visiting Cunda, has a cocktail menu as well as vegan options.

Enjoying Food by the Sea

Köşebaşı Cunda offers its guests the chance to enjoy the taste accompanied by the beauty of Cunda Island with its seaside garden for 150 people. The restaurant, which also has an inner hall for 50 people, is located in Cunda Despot House, one of the important symbols of the island. Yeşilçam, which was built in 1862 by the clergyman "Despot" with the donations given by the Greek people on the day Greece became a state, became the Government Building of the Ottoman Empire in 1877 after his death, and was used as both a primary school and an orphanage after the War of Independence was won. Despot House, where popular movies such as Hayat Bayram Olsa, Kambur, Ah Dede Vah Dede and Av Zamanı were shot, and which was restored and became a hotel in 2019, is one of the important historical values of Cunda. Köşebaşı Cunda complements this historical value with its service approach that combines mastery and taste without compromising on quality.

12th branch in Turkey

Köşebaşı, under the umbrella of Akkomarka, opened its 12th branch in Cunda. Köşebaşı, which always offers an unforgettable experience to its guests with its rich menu, has a total of 17 branches, including five branches abroad.
