Kadıköy roaster, 47th in The World’s 100 Best Coffee Shops 2026.

The list places it at the Caddebostan branch, one of five in Istanbul, with a sixth in Yalıkavak, Bodrum. Six founders opened the first in 2016, among them Doğanay Emre Kurtuluş and the chemist Duygu Kurtuluş, whose background gave the brand its laboratory theme.

Beans are roasted at the Campus on Atatürk Caddesi, and single origins such as Rwanda Muhondo Honey Anaerobic and Ethiopia Hambela Anaerobic Natural are brewed on V60 or Chemex. Meet Lab makes its own cups from roughly half coffee grounds and half ceramic, and sells a Final Touch kit of mineral drops for building brewing water at home.​⁠​​​⁠⁠​​⁠​​⁠​​⁠​⁠​​⁠⁠​​​⁠​⁠​⁠​​​⁠​​​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​​⁠​

At this shop

On Selin Sokak in Caddebostan, a cream pergola canopy marks the shop from a walkway screened by hedges, its terrace wood-decked with potted dracaena palms. Inside, arched niches flank a backlit menu board behind the counter, and a row of stools faces the glass wall that opens onto the terrace.​⁠​​​⁠⁠​​⁠​​⁠​​⁠​⁠​​⁠⁠​​​⁠​⁠​⁠​​​⁠​​​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​​⁠​
