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

Behind a brick ground floor on a Moda side street, under cream timber-clad upper storeys, a bonsai tree grows from a bed of white stones beside the entrance's glass partition. The counter runs along exposed brick under a sloped white plaster ceiling, with cream pouf seating on raised plinths at the front and wood-framed armchairs further in; tables continue outside under the arched windows.​⁠​​​⁠⁠​​⁠​​⁠​​⁠​⁠​​⁠⁠​​​⁠​⁠​⁠​​​⁠​​​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​​⁠​
