Dere Kafe

About Dere Kafe

Dere Kafe is a countryside café-restaurant in Kaynaklar, the green, rural part of Buca where many İzmir residents go to get away from the city. It is run by BUCAMAR, a company of Buca Municipality, and sits alongside the municipality's Scouting and Nature Sports Centre. Buca Municipality describes it as a place to start the day with breakfast in the fresh air, and its menu also covers lunch and dinner with a range of food and drinks. The café holds the Turuncu Çember hygiene certificate from the İzmir Hygiene Board, and the municipality says produce is bought fresh every day. There is dedicated parking for bicycles, and visitors can explore the surroundings on foot or by bike or shop at the producers' market set up in the centre of Kaynaklar village. Guests camping in the bungalows of the Scouting and Nature Sports Centre can also use the café during their stay. Reservations are needed, especially at weekends when it gets very busy: call +90 533 207 04 06.
