Erçelebi Kömürde Kadayıf fires kadayıf over charcoal until one in the morning in Sarıgüllük, so nothing here has been sitting on a tray for hours.
TryCharcoal kadayıf
TipExpect a ten-minute wait. Nothing is pre-made, which is the reason to come.
Çelebioğulları Baklava keeps its Gazi Muhtar Paşa salon open to midnight, so a late Gaziantep baklava run does not depend on the bazaar counters.
TryBaklava and şöbiyet
TipThe salon has proper seating. Order a mixed plate with tea rather than a box to go.

Gece Gündüz Bistro runs fasıl bands and a cook-your-own grill until one in the morning, the busiest late licensed room in central Gaziantep.
TryMeze and ocakbaşı grill
TipBook the ocakbaşı tables in advance. They are the only ones where you grill your own.
Bayazhan keeps its caravanserai meyhane in Gaziantep running to midnight with live fasıl, rakı and a küşleme allocation that sells out early.
TryKüşleme and meze
TipReserve the küşleme when you book. After ten o'clock the grill is usually out of it.
Yeşilçam Kahve Evi runs latest of the İbrahimli cafes, a Gaziantep room of film stills, backgammon and nargile that fills up once dinner ends.
TryTurkish coffee and nargile
TipUpstairs is quieter and less smoky. Ask for it when you arrive rather than later.
Sakıp Usta keeps beyran and paça going past midnight on Kemal Köker Caddesi, which makes it the Gaziantep answer to a very late-night appetite.
TryBeyran and paça
TipIt is still serving at 02:00, and at 03:00 on Fridays and Saturdays.
