Could improve on the service but the food,drinks and dessert were on point... Highly recommend it for the Turkish experience
I was honestly very skeptical about the bakery because the first time I went there they had no donuts, ha ha today I decided to try one of your burgers after buying hubbies birthday cake there a week ago and he gave you good reviews.
I came back and Ordered 'The Smit Burger" & a ring donut to go and I must say I am mind blown, the burger is so juicy, the side chips are fried to the perfect crisp and the ring donut sealed the deal. I'm very choosy when it comes to food I mean being a chef myself. I can definitely say I will be back for more.. keep up the good work and amazing service .

Popped into Galata Bakery & Coffee on Grove Square at 87 Juta Street, Braamfontein for a Türk kahvesi (Turkish coffee) and stayed for a Pogača Burger and a Simit Pide for breakfast. Can you imagine?
Two Turkish coffees and a Çay (Turkish black tea) later I got to chat to the owner Savas Daskan and his son Mustafa about moving to South Africa. Food quality is most important and they will not compromise on ingredients or taste. The mum still makes the traditional desserts - like baklava and Sütlaç (a divine Turkish Rice pudding).
They have two young black managers that speak Turkish, as they attended a local school that has Turkish as a compulsory subject till grade 11. Very interesting indeed.
They are open Monday to Monday as Mustafa giggles - 7 days a week from 07:00 to 20:00. Keep in mind Sundays are popular for breakfast. If you go tell Mustafa I sent you. You may get a complimentary Cay.
I will certainly be back to try everything on the menu and especially the Kanafah (a specialty Middle Eastern cheese pastry soaked in sugar-based syrup), that they plan to import from Turkey. A batch was flown in yesterday for testing but I missed it.
Having been to Turkey 3 times and eaten all these dishes before, I rate Galata highly.
