The Beşiktaş branch of Simit Sarayı, a national simit-and-bakery chain, near the Balıkçılar Çarşısı on Köyiçi Caddesi.
Simit Sarayı is a national chain built around simit and bakery products, with a wide branch network across Turkey. The catalogue already carries the brand's branch on İstiklal Caddesi in Beyoğlu; this record covers the same chain's Beşiktaş branch on Köyiçi Caddesi, and the two records are linked under the same brand. The Beşiktaş branch sits near the district's fish market, on a route with heavy foot traffic. The chain's range runs to simit varieties, poğaça, açma, and other savoury and sweet breakfast pastries, alongside coffee and tea; a corporate statement verified for another branch of the same chain (Levent) reads 'Alkol Bulunmaz' (no alcohol available), reasonably read as a chain-wide standard. The entire range belongs to the bakery-and-breakfast format, and nothing in the sourced material mentions a pork product either. With a branch network of this scale, Simit Sarayı is one of Istanbul's most widespread addresses for a quick breakfast or snack.
